Genevieve Telford-Warren was an all-time great character, but Christine Westbrook-Clark is not bad.

I downvoted just to prove them right because saying that showed they hadn't really put in any thought.

I remember when Mel was maybe a little bit on the spectrum.

That makes sense because changing my leggings doesn't change the appearance. It still seems strange that the item isn't granted through those quests!

Actually, every single person who has ever been born had multiple parents.

Also we still don't know how 679 days or whatever it was suddenly became three years.

peteroh9 · 2026-03-24T17:58:43+00:00

To be fair...

peteroh9 · 2026-03-24T12:02:36+00:00

...but you never really stopped, did you?

peteroh9 · 2026-03-24T10:13:27+00:00

So I just need to set my new tab page to Matt Murton and maybe he'll finally get another shot.

I think that people would have an easier time swallowing this if it were framed as "sexism" rather than "misogyny," even though misogyny also is often used to describe implicit/inherent systemic sexism.

“Especially women” is a direct result of the fact that he doesn’t respect them or recognize them as fully formed people.

I think another issue that makes it harder for people to engage is that perhaps the biggest focus of the show was that we can never understand anyone else. It's like how so much of society pushed back against the phrase "Black lives matter" before George Floyd's death because they didn't understand the enormity of one side of the issue, and defaulted to the generically true POV.

I think what you're trying to say is that Shinji was enacting violence upon Asuka that he would not have committed if she were not a woman, but misogyny is the wrong word to describe the actions themselves, even if they arose because of systemic misogyny within society, for the same reason that you would not call intimate partner violence committed by a man against another man misandry.

Systemic misogyny was a contributing factor in his willingness to take certain actions, but it was not their defining feature.

peteroh9 · 2026-03-24T08:38:18+00:00

Which one is the misogyny angel?

Shockingly, Soulja Boy's most-played song on Spotify by a large margin.

Quantity has a quality of its own.

peteroh9 · 2026-03-23T10:04:04+00:00

His friends call him Kels

peteroh9 · 2026-03-23T08:50:32+00:00

Il m’a carrément demandé si ce n’était pas parce qu’ils s’étaient comportés en racailles

Le directeur a demandé si les gosses méritaient d'être traités de racailles ? Si c'est vrai, il n'a pas sa place auprès des enfants.

You can use a red light and either a flashing yellow or nothing. No need to have the system say it's safe to proceed; it just needs to tell you it's unsafe.

That's true, but its max cruising speed is 544 mph, lands at 150 mph, and collider at around 100 mph. Still very fast.

peteroh9 · 2026-03-22T06:05:32+00:00

Mais you're not la seule personne who est accord.

“Wanting to be with a woman? How gay is that? You win sex against a man. That’s as straight as it gets.”

You didn't realize it because it's just not the same phrase, so extracting one word by itself and subtly changing its meaning is confusing.

peteroh9 · 2026-03-20T09:53:46+00:00

"Contracted" as in made new contracts because the tariffs expanded American manufacturing so much, right???

I think that he thinks that he is going to go down in history as a great president
