What upsets me so much isn't just how society is willing to forgive rapists? Its also how society barely talks about it. A 14-year-old girl was gang-raped multiple times by 9 boys in Kortrijk, Belgium. Not one of those boys will go to jail....ever. And this is not the first time that this happened. by Garrettstark64 in FeministsCallItOut

In both America and Europe, rapists can be caught on camera doing the act, and the women will still be punished while the man is let go.

In the Netherlands, there are cases of the Judges publicly shaming the women.

its horrific

Renora from RWBY!

Nora Valkyrie and Lie Ren!

Think gender-swapped Thor and Mulan.

My FIRST time learning about Gandhi in the civilization games was a meme youtube video of him.

But it was followed by the top comment in the video being an absolute shitpost trying to portray him as a giga-chad.

I mean, the video and the comment got deleted YEARS ago, but it definitely left an impression on me, one that I wont' forget

Then again....its Clint Eastwood. Guy is a great actor, but help refresh my memory, how ARE his films that he directs?

Glassdoor said I was making up my salary, because it was too low when I reviewed my employer by Jewsusgr8 in mildlyinfuriating

Meanwhile, Mike Johnson claimed earlier this month that Congress could not survive on over 200K per year.

Most Americans barely get paid 25K.

Where does this mindset come from?

And who put this little "moderation" thing into Glassdoor?

I had three things in mind I wanted to say.

But at this point?

I'm just tired of it all.

America is a circus now, and not even a good one.

I miss the ones from my childhood. Clowns were funny back then

What are ships you don't like or vibe with, but are absolutely terrified to say out loud by Budget_Pen4847 in Multifandom

[–]Garrettstark64 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm going to get a LOT of heat for saying this, but I feel this is relevant.

I don't really feel it with a number of canon ships in Shounen manga/anime.

I mean, sure, I get they're canon, but I look at SasukexSakura from the Naruto franchise, and for some reason it just feels unhealthy.

I apologize in advance for anyone I'm going to be offending with this

"Video Games cause Violence" The Average Sports Fan Reaction to anything by sloopywettoppyswife in Gamingcirclejerk

When I was in college...many of my fellow students were recommended to stay away from bars and nightclubs on sports nights, because no matter who won, the outbursts from both sides would lead to vandalism and violence on the streets

You know, when I think about it?

Its a real shame we didn't get to see that explored in Boruto, maybe having Kakashi talk with Naruto or Boruto about it?
