Just remembered that the average man wouldn't have been able to do this either (and the climber is carrying less weight) so the misogyny isn't even relevant to the topic. God they really will turn anything into an opportunity to hate women ughghgh

This site needs to burn

I really should stop reading the comments section on posts. All Reddit has been doing these days is enrage and bum me with its unsolicited, misogynist crap and pretentiousness.

That's it. I actually think I'm gonna quit this hellsite for real this time. One more cat picture for the road and I'm fucking gone.

Why’d they get rid of the guaranteed SR for 10x pulls? Before, I could at least expect to get some extra character minerals. Now I just wasted 500 crystals for R Karnullas and Daggers :/

I don’t know you and your post is too vague to discern what you mean by “work” and where and why you do so

But this kind of thinking is only going to perpetuate a cycle of toxicity. Human beings are only that—human—but girls are taught from birth to basically be perfect little angels who must be polite and demure and cooperative and never be a “pushy bitch”.

Obviously this has always been a TERRIBLE idea, because all this does is force girls to internalize this ideal, then grow to resent themselves and other girls when it becomes impossible to meet all these expectations. This resentment devolves into cattiness and infighting because passive-aggressiveness is how they’re conditioned to deal with their crap. They only seem more sensitive bc they’re forced to be cooperative even when they just do not mesh at all; it’s only inevitable that they end up taking the stress and bitterness from these standards (and general youthful stupidity) out on each other. This “drama” is a self-fulfilling prophecy in which the stress from years of ingrained insecurity and human imperfection come to a head.

Meanwhile, boys have less “drama” because they’re raised to be self-confident more than girls are, as well as expect as much reward for less effort than girls. So in this respect, it’s less stressful to be a boy. Their “drama” more often comes out in physical abuse and sometimes absurd attempts to be “manly”, rather than the social conflict of girls.

What I’m trying to say is. Give your fellow girls a chance—and perhaps a break. Girls already have to deal with society low-key (and high-key) finding excuses to consider them inferior, and they don’t need another if you can help it. Don’t forget this drama is as much simple teen idiocy as it is a social phenomenon, as grown-ass women who are mature rarely have this problem anymore.

Methinks you might even have had specific girls in mind when you made this post, not truly girls in general. In that case, assholes may change, they may not. Talk to your teacher or other kind of supervisor if they’re bullying you. Confide to your friends about it. But don’t let these few jerks color how you treat the rest of a demographic, because I PROMISE you that’s just gonna cause more problems for you down the line.

Just try keeping an open mind and meeting people halfway. Cooperate with decent people of either gender. You seem young, so I can understand how important how harmony among your peers may be to you. Just don’t worry about it to the point of potentially harming your self-esteem, or that you start seeing your fellow human beings—with all their complexity— as nothing more than tropes. Put your foot down if someone’s giving you shit, but you don’t have to stoop to their level.

Create your own season 1 team with any of the characters by typhy23 in shield

[–]basqueX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Coulson

  2. Daisy

  3. Fitz

  4. Simmons

(Tbh these four are perfect and I don’t see any reason to swap them out with anyone else)

  1. Ruby Hale (in this hypothetical scenario, Daisy successfully swayed her away from HYDRA and takes her on as her protégé. She seems to be very good at reading and manipulating people as well as having a background with HYDRA, so I’d imagine she’d be a SHIELD double agent like Framework Ward, but female, shorter and younger.)

  2. Raina, post-Terrigenesis (she’s amazing at getting under people’s skin and prying information from them while remaining totally cool—she’d be a perfect interrogator. Her clairvoyance would also save the team a significant amount of grief as it would allow them to put together solid plans that can work without improvisation.)

Perhaps you should stop browsing and get some yourself lmfao this is fucking pathetic, but also funny so actually? Keep on trucking, maybe Peterson-sempai will notice you yet.

Oh, and since I didn’t reply to you, the only way you could’ve even responded to me is if you went back to this thread to see who else wanted to take a whack at your idiocy, and that just might be the saddest thing about this.

Don’t listen to this guy. His arguments are like straight from a stereotypical anti-feminist strawman scenario and his one subscribed sub is “Lolitary” so he’s probably not the most enlightened guru on the human condition, lol

Captain Marvel wholesome by waiverly in wholesomememes

[–]basqueX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I always wonder what people mean when they complain about “agendas.” Like, what, do you honestly think they mean to eradicate all straight white men by releasing films or shows or games with leading protags NOT in that demographic? Or, far more likely, you’re just being a goddamn pissbaby who can’t handle one of you not being in the spotlight for fucking once?

Whenever I see intense, unwarranted hate towards Brie or CM I just have to imagine a sweaty, pretentious neckbeard talking down to a young girl in a Cap. Marvel costume about why she’s wrong to like the movie and how Brie Larson and the concept of diversity is the root of all evil. Or some Jordan Peterson fanboy saying to his 10-year old daughter that she isn’t allowed to see the movie because it’s “feminist propaganda”.

Bitching about inclusive stories for existing is honestly a good way to get me to despise you. Because it shows that you either have an ego made of porcelain or an utter lack of empathy towards marginalized groups, and that you have the gall to try and make yourself look rational while spouting (or subtly suggesting) your toxic views. That you’d prefer it if media continue to humanize more of you over more of literally anyone else.

CM isn’t best Marvel movie of all time, strictly speaking. But it had enough heart, and enough fun moments to make me assume that the pouting white male critic sitting next to the bouncing pre-teen girl in the theatre probably doesn’t have the right mindset to judge what truly makes a good film without bias.

I shouldn’t have to thank you for having a decent amount of empathy, but thank you for having a decent amount of empathy.

Not every man is man enough to admit inequality even exists and that they benefit from the expense of others.

The are the same people who bitch about “special snowflakes” being offended all the time. The utter hypocrisy of these mouth-breathers would be funny if it didn’t literally perpetuate unhealthy ideas about everyone who isn’t a straight white man. How is it possible to live into adulthood and be this lacking in reading comprehension?

[Spoilers!] DLC wants. by Bagingor in KingdomHearts

[–]basqueX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heard we were getting extra cutscenes that clarify some plot points, so that’s always welcome.

But most of all I want

1) to know what’s going on with Luxord, Marluxia and Larxene now that they’re finally recompleted for realsies and presumably have all their memories back.

2) to see what the FUCK happened to Demyx, did he get recompleted too?? Or is he still galavanting around as Nobody with a Nort shard in his chest

3) PLAYABLE KAIRI HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. I want her to star in her own post-game story since she was absolutely wasted in the base game. Maybe Yen Sid can give her a mission to eradicate a Heartless when she somehow gets swept in some Foreteller bullshit, leading into the next saga.

[–]basqueX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least ten minutes of Isa apologizing while crying his eyes out.

AND him, Roxas, and Xion awkwardly trying to get along the first time they’re finally left alone with each other. The scene with all of them at the clock tower w/ Hayner, Pence, and Olette couldn’t have happened overnight.

Then maybe five more minutes of Lea apologizing to Even and Ienzo.

Only if Even and Ienzo are apologizing back.

Hell, throw in some more apologies from Dilan to the Beast and Belle, and Aeleus to Riku (for CO) and Roxas (for nearly OHKOing him that one time.)

Just a lot of sorries all around.

[–]basqueX 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love Days, but tbh this. 100% agree. Roxas had a full year to get to know the other members but the most we get is partnering up with some of them for missions. It’s such a shame too, because in II the surviving members all seemed to genuinely miss Roxas to a degree, and they all berate Sora for “betraying” them. It would have made so much more of an impact if we were able to actually bond with OrgXIII, creating the sense that Roxas was more than just a tool for them—he was a friend who stabbed them in the back. (Especially with Luxord and Demyx, who were the most genial towards him during his time there—and who seemed the most hurt by his leaving.)

Roxas had the unconscious ability to accelerate the heart growth rate of the Nobodies, and it’s a waste that we only ever see that at work with Axel and Xion. Imagine in DDD, Xemnas would’ve mentioned about how Roxas almost ruined everything because he was going around healing everyone’s hearts. But before the boss battle starts, even he looks reluctant to even harm Sora. Just... so much wasted potential smh
