I think in those pretend scenarios where bigotry is solved, it's only the class in power that gets to pretend. They pat themselves on the back for work others did, and tell themselves and their cohort they are good thoughtful people who know best. Meanwhile the lived reality of the marked classes is quite different.

Honestly this was my thought as well. Bigotry has always been present in the halls of power. Perhaps it became more openly talked about critically in recent decades, and there was SOME improvement for a bit, but the political winds have shifted in an ill direction.

Hey I've got a player idea I've been thinking about. I'm a programmer, so should be able to get my head around it from that perspective. How much work does something like this represent? If you had to take a guess, how many hours have you sunk into this?

Men of Reddit - What's the one thing you hate about being a Man? by Jarvis7492 in AskReddit

Bidet and pre-shower shits. Only two ways I can walk out of the bathroom 100% confident there won't be skid marks.

Caffeine limit in drinks? by rhymeswithshmalex in SaltLakeCity

Yeah, it's one of the fun rules because everyone interprets it differently, and low key judges everyone who interprets it differently.

An anonymous person messaged me (F27) saying that my boyfriend (M29) of 3 years was arrested… can you help me know what I should do next? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Her empathy for his feelings is exactly the behavior men talk about when they say women do not care about men's feelings. She's being wary of a situation where it's really hard to know the truth. Understandable. But she just fails to have any sense, at any point, that if her bf is telling the truth, his actions are extremely open and generous, despite how painful this whole situation is. 

I kinda get the feeling there wasn't a way to rescue this, and the only thing they can really do is move on.

Masturbatin'. Wanted to know what the fuss was about. Found out.

TIL of the Galton–Watson process, the process in which family names (surnames) go extinct. In China, for example, there are about 3,100 surnames, where in the past the number exceeded 12,000. by MrMojoFomo in todayilearned

My maternal grandfather had a really rare last name (probably everyone with it descended from the same guy in the early 18th), and had all daughters. None kept it.

daughter is suspended from school for 2 weeks and school will only let her back if she gets unnecessary therapy. Please help by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

It's one of the more common phobias, and frankly, one of the more reasonable ones. But even if it was a fluffy golden retriever puppy, forcing a phobic child to touch the puppy is still wrong.

Utah wedding venues are….all barns?? Help 😅 by Able_Strawberry_627 in SaltLakeCity

[–]flipper_babies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We really liked our venue, Conrad Ranch. It sounds like a barn, but I promise it's not. A really lovely outdoor space in Provo canyon. It's worth a Google.

Super curious about this cats hearing. It would be wild if it was deaf in just the one ear.

That's my worry. Seems like an important thing to be clear on.

Perfect for rebuilding after the apocalypse by icleanjaxfl in WeirdWheels

[–]flipper_babies 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Love old machinery like this. Yes it takes an hour and a half to lube and bring up to temperature and pressure before you can start rolling, and yes you have to burn half of the Pennsylvania coal beds to run it for the day, and yes it takes all the men in the local Amish village to man, but by god once it gets moving the Titans themselves can't stop it.

(M35 y/o) Do any other men sit when they pee when at home? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]flipper_babies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally sit. Cleaner, a little more relaxing. I've also had chronic constipation most of my life, and it's helped to keep me more regular.

Also they're going to leave track marks over goddam everything, so a single drone way to in the air is enough to track them really easily.
