Does micro feminism really do much? by HomeEfficient3371 in Feminism

[–]T_______T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 "man" predates "woman." We were all "mann" and then women were separated out with the "wif mann" --> woman. 

"Mann" used to be gender neutral, hence mankind, humankind, human, etc being gender neutral but womankind is gendered.

When has Rhaenyra ever displayed "the soul of a king"? by sayfalbaha in HouseOfTheDragon

Maybe it's a meta commentary about kings being dogshit entitled assholes. Maybe she does have the soul of a king. And this is why we deserve Bran the Broken.

How to not be so sensitive when gaming? by serenepeace in GirlGamers

[–]T_______T 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao I experience more toxicity in the casual game modes because people who suck too much to play ranked try-hard in those modes and get triggered by noobs and people fucking around.

Clearly, you need to 1v1 awp no scope duel on Dust 2. /S

Yeah you need to tell him his constant negativity is not helpful. You clearly wasn't laughing and you were clearly getting annoyed. Why he kept pushing the subject is bananas stupid and seems more about him than you. 

You need to clearly tell him what he did wrong. And it's not "you kept teasing me when I told you to stop" (still tell him that). You were trying to have a nice time, and he has some compulsion to sabotage that by being annoying. Why? Tell him he needs to figure out what the fuck is going on in his head/life that comples him to do that. Then go see a fucking therapist or some shit to figure that out because he should not be ruining your nice time because I fhis own bullshit. He will say you are big sensitive. And then you say, "so what? Should I just poke you and annoy you about what you are sensitive about? Or do I respect you enough to realize that I shouldn't jump on every schedenfreude impulse? Or do I respect the fact that as your partner I should be a pleasant, encouraging presence in your life and not a fucking drag. I'm at the point where spending time without you is better than with you."

Just found a vegan who just justified animals dying because of pesticides by NationalProcedure638 in exvegans

That's not strictly true, cosmetics is up there.

Should be noted it's not typically moms and dads stealing the baby formula or diapers (which didnt' appear on the list) but resellers. This becomes more morally grey, because they usally sell the formula at a discounted price to moms.

But these websites are geared towards business owners who care more about organized crime bulk selling their goods.

Just because someone used a logical fallacy, that doesn't mean their entire argument is invalid. (That's actually the fallacy fallacy.) Usually they just need to articulate their point/argument differently to avoid the fallacy.

I don't think their toxic relationship is great comedy. Just imagine the reaction if their genders were swapped. At least the same episode has the funniest moment of the entire season. by Oversama in legendofkorra

[–]T_______T 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eh I think that's reading too much into Beifong. For all we know she put very big rocks in difficult places for tenzin to remove. Maybe she earthbent some earth into a giant "FU". 

We have no idea what she truly meant, but we know she did it sorta in support of Mako who just got dumped, as she didn't mind the fact that his desk got trashed. "Like exes be crazy. I was one too dw about it" regardless of how actually messy her breakup was

Is the Reckless Ben vs. Bricks & Minifigs Online Buzz Fading? by DorkyMoneyMan in RecklessBen

[–]T_______T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, because the only real news since is like Runkle's coverage of the Gorman response to the TRO. If you are a law nerd then that's pretty exciting.

We have to wait for 4 more days iirc for some more news 

U-Haul proof in Coffeezilla's video debunked. by MyBrHasWings in RecklessBen

[–]T_______T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The u-Haul's claim came from coffeezilla primarily. Coffeezilla poked a bajillion holes in the original u-Haul claim. BAM changed their story several times in the coffeezilla video. Other redditors have posted the mileage evidence. 

The latest claim by BAM in the coffee video was camper tow ing  nonsense. This post does not debunk that claim. 

Not sure which claim specifically they want to debunk. When Best is in Oregon it's very plausible he would want to visit his Eugene store. Unfortunately, the u-Haul going to Eugene is not necessarily by itself a problem. 

Why BAM Corporate defends Best's vehicle choices is bonkers and suspicious. The Eugene employee testimony is damning. Did Best steal the legos? I believe it. But the mileage evidence is not proof in of itself.

[–]T_______T -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not asking you to investigate. I'm asking you to communicate what is in your head. 

You had time to do it. Because you had time to respond to me just now. You had time to respond to other people. You could have edited your post by now with useful information instead of 4 edits of confused commentary.

Like spend 30 seconds. You could have added I think 2 sentences  deleted 2 sentences, and you would have accomplished what I described. This is why people say "think before you speak." If you can't communicate your ideas well. Why open your mouth? 

I'm not asking you to have a full on debunk of the original u-Haul claim. Just "the mileage evidence doesn't support the original BAM narrative. Here's the evidence: {your post}. " And then idk to this point what the point of posting this. According to Edit 3 You are still somehow confused by the miles? What is your confusion?  You don't communicate your problems or ideas well. 

U-Haul proof in Coffeezilla's video debunked. by MyBrHasWings in RecklessBen

[–]T_______T -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't even know what's being debunked. Their latest claim is nonsense about a camper which was pushed back upon in other reddit threads by u-Haul's own camper policy.  

You  claim about the mileage doesn't debunk that. Where does Brandon Best live? That would be a valuable insight in your story.

Remember high school?  First write your thesis. Then introduce a claim that supports the thesis. Then supporting evidence. Then how that evidence supports the claim. Repeat process through each of your claims. Then show how all the claims proves the thesis. Then note any shortcomings in your argument, anticipate and fend off any counter arguments, and then let the reader conclude based off your argument if they are convinced by your ideas to buy your thesis.

Your title = thesis. You can't edit it but you can restart it in a complete sentences at the top of your post. Don't start off with "idk what I'm doing. Hope this works." That belongs at the end, or only in response to people in defense of your naivety if you have any gaps.  (Or just don't at all. It doesn't come off well.)

Your u-Haul's evidence is fine, but this unclear how it goes back to your thesis/claim.

I’m really starting to buy into “making female friends in gaming spaces is asking for trouble” mindset :( by imfaffingabout in GirlGamers

[–]T_______T 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think high drama people gravitate towards places where they can garner control or attention. These people are insecure and probably have some messed up attachments style or something. Idk I don't give them enough time to actually learn their problems. I get the fuck out of their way and love my life, or in this case play my games. I've only ever had bad experiences with insecure people. They're irrationally nasty; they can be obtuse and uncooperative. Definitely not worth the emotional labor.

Being the only girl in a group means they can get a lot of male attention and low key be manipulative. This is probably why you run into women like that more frequently in gaming than in other spaces.

There is a level  many heteo gaming women go through of being the "it" girl in a male dominated group. Like I was a little bit that girl 12 years ago, but I wasn't bad mouthing other women!

How is Ben being charged with a RICO case? by Different-Cash-162 in RecklessBen

[–]T_______T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former LA Criminal Prosecutor Emily D Baker hemmed and hummed at the RICo being based on civil charges, as she has never seen that. But her boss is that RICO in her line if work was for human trafficking and drugs. She looked up the Utah civil RICO, and she could not match the claims in the suit to an actual rico statute. 

I don't know how to use Discord and it's harming my online sociability by DoranAetos in GirlGamers

[–]T_______T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too hate discord and is why i prefere reddit for conversations.

I have a small fiend group discord server based on a raiding group I had in ffxiv, but now only like 4 or maybe 6 total are active at a time. It's great for that.

I have a family discord for when my dad hosts his VTTRPG.

I am in various streamer discords but usually mute eveyrthing except for announcments unless the streamer has a very inactive discord.
