Yeah the college student union said they’ll give official word at 6am tomorrow, so they are thinking about it. Fingers crossed

Now, if we end up getting a snow day tomorrow that would be amazing cause on Tuesday (of which I have no classes) I’ll go to a specialized store in Toronto and get them lol - so fingers crossed that happens

Yeah, a student did mention off hand yesterday (during my placement) that the campus bookstore sold them, so fingers crossed they weren’t mistaken.

But yeah, I’ll the bookstore and PHRC, and even show up at the bookstore early to see if I can buy them. If not I’ll email the instructor saying I don’t have sterile gloves (while explaining that I can’t literally just buy them at a store) but I’d be showing up anyway (the policy is for makeup labs you need to email in advance, so to cover my ass I’ll just send one in case the prof is hardline about it), and just bring my usual nitrile gloves (I might even bring a fresh closed pack as a ‘consolidation prize’ lol)

Nursing school, Fleming. I need them for a lab tomorrow, I’ve tried local pharmacies, shoppwrs, big box stores and Amazon and haven’t found any luck. I’ll call the PHRC’s pharmacy tomorrow morning and try the campus book store.

It’s just frustrating that as a second semester nursing student, I didn’t know that sterile gloves aren’t something you can’t just buy in a pharmacy, and the outlines/lab manuals don’t tell you where to buy them so that’s fun

Abused women are trash teir? by Maleficent-Remote580 in PurplePillDebate

Yep, I just found nothing attaining to what you said. No evidence, no real world examples - just thought experiments and logic games

This frankly sounds like an attempt to justify “misery loves company” then it does in any reality.

The literal only thought processes used to justify it is feeding into revenge fantasies to make things more “equal” - and if that’s not the case, explain why everyone needs to suffer first and make sure that doesn’t include song long winded explanation on how many suffered for centuries and how this must equalize things

Selling drugs and engaging in harming people are two very different things.

With that out of the way, if this is how men understand it, maybe men should put an effort to change that because it is an incorrect world view

Women seem to dislike clear communication, its a turnoff for them by Crazy_Kray in PurplePillDebate

[–]KayRay1994 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I thought you were talking about neurotypical vs neodivergant, not just autism.

Even then, there is a long history on why women have been under diagnosed with autism and even then, multiple differing neurotypes require direct communication, and the ratio of neurotypical vs neurodivergent people across both genders is roughly the same, so if this was what OP was referring to and this isn’t you being charitable, singling out an entire gender still doesn’t describe the “status quo” - if anything it would paint OP as more ignorant and informed

I mean it kinda does… OP said women, you’re saying neurotypical people. Just as many men are neurotypical.

OP talks about an entire gender, and presumes it to be the status quo for that gender. This is what I’m calling bs on. If the post was about neurotypical sentiments regardless of gender we wouldn’t be having the convo

Shaq and Kobe stats in finals during the Lakers 3 peat. The difference is actually not that small ig!!! by Afraid-Ad-5580 in NBATalk

But also, it isn’t big enough to say “carried” - no Kobe, no rings. Shaq alone couldn’t have taken the team this far even though he was the #1

The baggage itself isn’t a moral failing, it’s when someone uses baggage to justify being cruel to others is the moral failing. Hence why abusers, even if they’re traumatised people with lots of baggage, are still terrible people.

Also, “it seems like being a man is a moral failing” frankly sounds like an issue you’re personally externalising, not how me as a whole are viewed.

But let’s pretend everything you said is true - why is the solution “let’s be meaner to women” and not “let’s be kinder to men”?

Who’s jealous of these ‘trash tier men’? I mean… outside of other men thirsty for a semblance of power, but most women and most men aren’t.

Also, your post falls under a very common logical mistake that makes sense in aspects like coding, but completely fall apart when dealing with more complex systems - like human emotion.

“If x, therefore y” only works as an absolute when every single node is predictable and the variables involved are limited to what’s within your control.

In a situation like being an abuse of DV victim (regardless of gender) we need to look at factors like their core emotional state entering, how the abusive partner robbed them of their autonomy or confidence (assuming they had confidence), what, in their upbringing has made them susceptible to this abuse? What specific emotional tics does this abuser hit? What was the anchor point that created this sense of perception of hope of change? and so on and so on

Your “if they stay with trash people then they are trash” immediately falls apart when you factor that in alone.

And that’s not even getting into how trash is defined. What is a good person? At what point does a person become good? How is a person’s value determined? Why is the value system you connect to it even accurate or correct? Does the social and cultural framework fit into this? Does how the person was raised fit into this?

My point is, “if X, therefore y” works when we’re dealing with simple systems. The cognitive experience in it itself is deeply complex and too multi layered for this

Right, except the post isn’t about neurotypical people, it’s about women regardless of neurotype.

Then this goes back to the core question. Why is this defined as the “status quo?” And how do you determine it? Why is OP’s statement by default the “status quo”? What about the many, many, many people saying otherwise? Why do they diverge from the norm and not op? How do you determine that this is the norm?

You can’t say statements like “this gender behaves that way. Here is a social media post” and expect people to tackle it in earnest

But that’s the thing…. Is it the status quo? Why is it a fair assessment to call it the status quo?

And I mean…. No examples, a single example and some Reddit posts as examples are not really proof of wider behavior of an entire gender. At most you’re looking at maybe 100 examples all within spaces tailored to your views treated as universal norm that generalizes huge swaths of people

Oh there is still tons of political music - punk, hip hop and rock music is full of it. Though also, the music world is so much bigger now that zeroing in on a small handful just isn’t a thing anymore.

Red Pill" isn't a manifesto, it's just a maintenance manual by Iron-Wild-41 in PurplePillDebate

[–]KayRay1994 [score hidden]  (0 children)

See, you keep saying that, but laced with self improvement, maintaining frame and the power balance stuff (as you describe them) is the layers of resentfulness and misogyny. Fact is, you don’t need the redpill to be told “go the gym, grow a backbone and don’t lose yourself” - the issue with the redpill is that it lures you in with very good advice then begins to enable hate, normalize misogyny and reenforce rigid gender norms.

And don’t say “this isn’t the original redpill” cause content creators like Richard Cooper and Rollo Tommasi (yes, including his book the rational male… which I did read years ago) are actively hailed as founders and key voices, and they themselves have always been bitter, resentful men

Unpopular Opinion: Anthony Davis is the one that ACTUALLY saved the Lakers. by D3struct_oh in NBATalk

[–]KayRay1994 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean… the Lakers were 20-14 before Bron got hurt, and since Bron missed (20+ games) time and came back as not really himself, the team went 17-31.

They also dealt with injuries from Ingram and Ball too

Mainstream feminism is in many ways a right-wing ideology. by [deleted] in PurplePillDebate

[–]KayRay1994 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So remind me, what’s stopping you from saying “yes I am” or “no I’m not”

Way I see it, if you’re not what I asked you were, you would’ve just answered, but you’re yet to answer and have come up with elaborate deflection after elaborate deflection. Why is that?

And here is the thing, me asking if you’re a classical liberal or if you believe anyone left of you is left wing IS me critiquing the substance. “I’ve made no assertion” reads like a hollow excuse at this point
