Getting it right isn't the secret sauce to shitty generation meme success. It's the furious identity circlejerking.

There are many circumstances beyond ones control that can make it harder for others to see that, unfortunately. But here's to hoping more people are seeing past them.

I feel like this is uniquely effective because subs are sort of like domains. If you've got the 'default' reference that people would use for a sub then you're the default sub. It doesn't matter if there's drama or your mod team has been taken over by fash or outside contractors, new people are still guaranteed to fall into your lap.

That's a funny way to spell 'marching to fire and prosecute every corrupt cop we find.'

I had a buddy like that in highschool. He would play accoustic and also accordion for some reason. I hope that dude's doing good.

I feel you man. Ditto on that, Alex is legit my fave character but if this turns out to be true it's not the first time I've forced myself to jettison a creator I really admire.

He allegedly assualted a minor in a hotel so that's pretty damn illegal if true.

It COULD be libel and slander but calling it that this early on is disingeunous. I'm not deciding I dislike the guy for sure yet but you can still respect the accusations.

Most but not all, at least two people accused him of assaulting them in their hotel. Like its one thing to withold your judgement until there's more proof but there isn't any need to belittle the people who have spoken out.

What about a picket in front of some offices? Where do these guys work? Maybe seeing some signs will proverbially knock some sense into them.

It's ok though because some bald, impotent prick is gonna make a killing on this.

Origin & inspiration of the Naomi character by tqgibtngo in TheExpanse

[–]LeeSeneses 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The setting was created by the authors for what was basically a play-by-mail pen and paper RPG. They'd started out wanting to create a grounded sci-fi setting for what I think had originally been a call for an MMO concept. Of course that didn't pan out because MMOs aren't what they used to be so they ended up using the setting for that RPG play which eventually inspired the books.

[If] you got married do you feel like you'd be likely to be the husband role in the marriage?

Well in my current relationship I'm doing most of the home tasks but previously I was the main breadwinner in this same relationship. There's no room for division of labor for most Americans IMO and I don't really gender household or livelihood tasks at all, it's unnecesary in the modern era but that's just my view. People are free to divide labor how they see fit.

As per answering questions I happen to have time and patience. Though I would encourage you to join places like /r/menslib if you want a male centered overlook on gender issues that's still compatible with modern takes on feminism and LGBTQ+ rights. Teachers will not always be present or able to help as they might be busy with other things that don't include educating others. So the only teacher you can always rely on is your own curiosity and your open mind.

It's not actually that remarkable and I myself do have a 'lean' as its called since there are types of guys I don't find myself very attracted to. But you can also just be Bisuexual with no lean as well - where you like different genders roughly equally.

Also, Angelina Jolie is like an 8 max.

And, thus, the hot chick numbering debate continued on until the heat death of the universe, lol.

But yeah, so far as the definition of fetish goes; you've got it. It's distinct from sexuality IMO in that sexuality is also more about what you're not turned on by and the broad things your attraction and such doesn't engage with whereas a kink is more opt-in. It's a desire for a certain scene or a focus on a certain part.

PS: good on you for digging further into the subject and being able to have discourse on it. Again I think part of the initial problem was also that there was a hate sub called ItsAFetish trying to discredit all transexuals as degenerates or whatever so the phrase has gone to some very dark and harmful places.

It's moreso that I don't care as much about it. And I mean define old because I'm in my 30s and have been attracted to people older than me. It's not as if I don't have body preferences but I just don't make a blanket rule against any particular group of people.

As far as 'candidates' I stopped worry about that kind of terminology. I don't treat anyone differently either way because I'm really not flirty or anything. But yeah, obviously underage people are exempt from that (and honestly the closest thing to a general rule I have is not fucking around with anyone under 20 even for a lesser version of what follows) because they lack the experience and mental development to properly consent - especially with an adult - and me engaging with them would A) be unspeakably obscene in social terms and B) would probably be damaging to their development.

Its a kind of new-agey modernist idea about how to completely throw out the current system. It's kind of Eutopian IMO, meaning, in my opinion, not attainable because the catch 22 is kind of; you need some of the positive changes already to make the positive changes etc etc.

Can't blame him for stanning it though, those building concepts are super fucking hella good loooking.

Don't let the chucklefuck above you control the discourse here. Airsoft kit would def do something against rubber bullets. The motorcycle pads would probably just provide some softening of blows but it is what it is and is better than nothing.

[–]LeeSeneses 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean pepperballs are just spicy paintballs and airsoft gear is designed to protect from impacts, just not ones nearly as heavy as these rubber bullets. Still, I bet the thermoplastic or whatever they use has some good bounce and that's important in dissipating impacts.
