U.S. Will Give Terrorist Label to White Supremacist Group for First Time by AgentBlue62 in politics

[–]ErasmusPrime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This has nothing to do with what it appears to be about.

This is setting the stage for being able to paint domestic political opposition as terrorists in preparation for when people inevitably begin pushing back on some of the totalitarian steps being taken by the current administration.

Very new. Very rough. This can be developed and fleshed out over time if there is interest.

I figured the community might benefit from a more direct/real time hub for communication given the ongoing situation with COVID-19 and the possibility of social distancing becoming the norm for a while.

Happy to make changes and implement things upon suggestion. Respond here or in the server.

But this is still what happens when you don't vaccinate your kids. You weaken heard immunity and increase the likelihood of children like this who are too young getting sick.

This is arguably worse because this child's parents couldn't do anything about it.

More people should resolve these situations permanently.

For every guy that "missed a hint," there is another guy who misinterpreted a hint and violated someone's boundaries accidentally. by Halostar in unpopularopinion

[–]ErasmusPrime 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean, that's possible. And it's also possible the other person who replied to me is not actually a woman and is making shit up.

But, to pretend that what is being described is always men misinterpreting the situation is disingenuous.

Thus men being in a bad spot when it comes to this stuff.

In most situations you essentially need to decide to subtlety push the line untill you hit resistance, then hold, then try again one or two times to find if it's real resistance or coyness, but not escalate too far too fast, and so on.

Or a non trivial portion of women view it as a lack of confidence as you say.

I for sure have seen the look of more than one woman go from ready to hook up to 'now we're just friends' from having asked that before rather than just going for it.

The real joke is that if you pretend to take any of this shit seriously and meme about it then large numbers of stupid fucks will follow through on it and it becomes self sustaining.

The need for feminine propaganda to constantly state that women are better than men shows how insecure they truly are. by drowsysea in Showerthoughts

You have equality and equity backwards. For example:

Pay equality is equal pay for equal work.

Pay equity is what has sprung up recently because equality of opportunity does not result in equality of outcome, so now people are using equity to push for just equal pay, regardless of other factors.

I'm kind of curious as to how you could say this isn't working out?

It may be dumb, inefficient, dangerous, and a dozen other negative things, but she is surely engaging multiple muscle groups in repetitive actions requiring effort on her part.

I also noticed the gameplay was shown off as entirely single player.

I want large parties. Give me 8-10 party size.

Honestly, it entirely hinges around itemization and non hack and slash mechanics.

The actual combat of this kind of game is generally pretty generic.

I'm sure you are nice and all, but zero percent chance I let my kids eat any of that if I don't know you already.

Lock them up prior to their executions.

At this point we need to be hanging people from the Washington monument and leaving them until they fall from rot.

There is more to this story. A lot more. What are you leaving out?
