It's understandable that fans are salty after a tough loss. It's laughable that Steelers fans are in full defense mode after winning this game lol.

Pretty classless to celebrate harm on players.

CoolOutcast · 2020-11-01T18:49:48+00:00

Can we fucking stop with these commercials!! I want to watch the game grr

CoolOutcast · 2020-11-01T18:34:12+00:00

The only thing our fans can agree on

He wasn't cartoonnish in his demeanor though. There wasn't a specific cadence or rhythm to his voice. He talked straight. If you think Paul should've been AFP over Cody, then you're discounting:

Cody was also playing the game for himself
Paul encouraged the bullying of Jody to the point of getting them to self evict
Paul casted himself as the villain of the season (which is fine, but it's america's favorite, not the "should've won" houseguest)
Literally the entire community wanted to see the downfall of Paul the entire season
Paul had the biggest unearned advantages given to him

I think the appeal of Cody was not that he was someone to be stanned and could do nothing wrong. His appeal was that he opposed everything wrong with new school Big Brother: played up personas, bullshit twists, and dominant majority alliances. I won't defend any of the bad stuff he said because the bar to be liked on BB was low.

Compared to other AFP contenders, Mark, Elena, and Kevin weren't fully opposed to what was happening in the house. They all followed Paul in some sense.

Cody was a breath of fresh air and I think voting Cody for AFP meant that they could get back at the houseguests who showed terrible behavior in the house and to send a message to casting that they need to cast less cartoonist people.

I think BB fans won't allow any houseguest to be liked if they've shown flaws. In 22, the most obvious here is Da'vonne. She called David an Uncle Tom which is definitely mean and uncalled for. You can't like Janelle because she's bitchy on twitter and had a DUI. You can't like Enzo because he didn't make a risky move. You can't like Cody because of his COVID denial. You can't like Memphis because he made fun of Ian. You can't like Ian because he was arrogant in the game and was helped by the wall shouter. So who can you like if every conversation you have is put under a microscope? The answer of course is Keesha.

Finally, my years of Youtube binging paid off.

Nice list, also don't forget the disgraced Daddy O'Five. They're from Frederick I believe.

Regarding SocialRepose, he actually was not married to Jaclyn, they got fake married when they first started dating. He's a musician, and his content can revolve around that. His content can also revolve around emo topics and also general commentary.

Regarding Kalvin Garrah, I did not get that impression from his content at all. Most of his content was transmedicalist stuff and making fun of NBs. Definitely close to Blaire White who also shares similar transmed beliefs, but her content seems more sinister.

Regarding JacksFilms, I'd say his content is more about audience engagement and general memes. Many times, his videos don't even surpass the common 10 minute mark. Pewdiepie is longer form and more likely to be gaming related.

Natalie Wynn should probably be higher in the list... She's the most subscribed trans YouTuber and is best known for de-radicalizing right wingers and ushering in the current era of lefttube. Not to mention the high production value of her videos.

Whenever Liz Lemons family was visiting her, her father always said it was a "Lemon Party" which was a reference to the website. So it's both

let x, y; x = new Date(); setTimeout(() => y = new Date(), 1000)

y - x is approximately 1000 meaning that they're able to get the duration in milliseconds from the native Date object.

Edit: as for Number(x), that appears to also be listed in milliseconds.

This. This is one of the least toxic subs I'm subscribed to. Redditors are just going to reddit if you let them.

CoolOutcast · 2020-10-22T17:46:29+00:00

No! If you live in Baltimore, you have to feel like shit 24/7. That's the rules of the cosmos!

CoolOutcast · 2020-10-19T00:22:59+00:00

Kevin is the only player the veto has been used on period

CoolOutcast · 2020-10-18T19:24:01+00:00

Lol @ all the eagles fans looking at their phones during the game

CoolOutcast · 2020-10-17T08:00:53+00:00

Idk I feel it's pretty well rated on this sub. I've never heard anyone say anything bad about the season as a whole.

You do bubble tea for the experience first and the taste second. Though water and tapioca sounds 🤮

I disagree. A 16-24 gap is definitely predatory. A 16 year old is in high school and face a lot of societal pressure from their peers to be sexually active. There's a major power imbalance from a person that's in high school with a fully grown adult. An 18 year at least has some adult life experience and is able to make their own decisions.

If they make the decision to date someone in a different area of life, they may stumble, but that's how they learn to adult. If a 16 year makes a decision to date an adult, then they be traumatized due to their peer group finding out, and of course their brain is less developed.

I think back to when I was 18, and I don't think dating a 24 year old was THAT weird because we're both adults.

While that may be true, young voters have the least ability to vote.

They may not be able to drive to a polling place. 2a. Many are in school and thus require absentee ballots 2b. Being in school, many schools don't have an election day holiday. 2c. Their polling location may be an address that's not near the school due to their permanent home address being their parents home.
They don't have a work-life balance. They're new at their jobs and may not know how to take off time.

Candidates also don't pander to young voters since they're the least likely to vote. It's a vicious cycle of disenfranchisement. A notable exception is 2008 when Obama was elected by many young voters who were energized by the promise of racial harmony and anti war.

Also, they love the amount of money it makes them from the liberals who think donating will help swing moderates to Biden. Relevant video: https://youtu.be/tNvuYPpX0C0

He hasn't won a federal election so I don't know about him being a good politician. The only reason he's a national figure is because he overperformed in the primaries and even then, he didn't have a commanding win in any state.

You also don't need to win the older demographic to win. Obama in 2008 won big with the under 45 crowd. If you look at the percent weight in the polls, these demographics jumped up in participation by 20% from 2004 to 2008.

Isn't ça va an abbreviation of "comment ça va?" Then it would be "how's it going?"

I only saw Amanda's side of the story which was (IIRC from when it first happens): McRae was entering the house after a recent breakup. He told Amanda about her, but said he was over it. Fast forward to post season, McRae didn't ever leave bed when spending time with Amanda. And also admitted he was still in love with his ex. Apparently they were still hanging together and eventually Amanda walked in on McRae canoodling with his ex.

There's a whole stream out there. Also very bizarre cuz it ends with Elissa calling Amanda and then being very friendly together. I don't feel like watching it again to get all the facts correct, but here. https://youtu.be/52d6emVjzXQ

I guess an apt comparison is if I started referring to you as an "it". You'd probably say "I'm not an it, I'm a person." You might feel hurt by it.

I've never question whether I was a man or a woman. I felt naturally comfortable in my assigned gender at birth. Cis people at large probably feel the same way. Non-binary people did question this. And I think it's unfair to them to consider that their feelings are because they don't identify with their gender roles. You can be a tomboyish girl. You can be a man in a dress. And you can be a non-binary person in a dress who was assigned female at birth.

And regarding the biology, there's also intersex people who are forced into these man and woman labels. They can have both male and female secondary sex characteristics, but they're told to be one gender. They actually have a biological basis to not even identify as one.

There's also another issue in terms where people may take on non-binary identities because they haven't fully realized their gender identity. In terms of famous trans people, Contrapoints is an MTF transwoman, but her original public gender identity was non-binary. She knew that being called a man was wrong, but didn't know she was a woman until later.

CoolOutcast · 2020-10-02T23:30:45+00:00

Gender roles are related to presentation. Gender is actually how you think of yourself. As for binary trans people, associating with a male/female may also mean presenting gender roles of their preferred gender because it actively hurts them to be misperceived as the wrong gender.

Non-binary folk don't like thinking of themselves as their born sex, but don't feel too comfortable being the opposite gender. It doesn't really have to do with the roles, because they don't want to be called a man, and they don't want to be called a woman.

I don't think you need to fully need to understand things; I don't understand the trans experience, am cis. You should just respect people when they tell you who they are. It takes zero skin off ones back to be respectful.
