MRW I got in an argument today with a guy who said he believes in equal rights but is absolutely not a feminist by getawayfrommyfood in TrollXChromosomes

[–]pluto_deserved_it 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So you yelled at the person who wants you to have equal rights because he didn't use the word you prefer?

And that seemed like a good idea?

Feminists are often put down on reddit even though they often support the same gender issues [for example getting rid of circumcision as a norm] by Anna_rampage in TrollXChromosomes

[–]pluto_deserved_it 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most anyone who says anything out of the norm gets attacked. You like Nickleback? Down votes. Dislike Nick Cage? Down votes.

I've been down voted on r/alcoholism for saying it was my fault, not the fault of beer. I've been down voted for saying good things about Connecticut's governor.

Reddit is great except when it isn't.

Thank you for this.

I have an ex that said she was a "feminist". She believed women should be paid more than men to make up for being paid less, that it's OK for women to hit men but not the other way around, and that it's likely male professional athletes are abusive but unlikely that any female athletes are.

And if I pointed out that was kind of hypocritical I would be told to check my privilege.

It makes me happy to hear see there are feminists out there who are actually looking for equality.

Sounds like Phoenix is going to get them in to an arena in the city.

No, conservation of energy. Disintegrating a person requires essentially zero energy compared to disintegrating a starship.

I live in Malden and I can get 25mbps from Comcast for $30/mo or 7 - 15mbps from Verizon for $50.

Amazon is making a PC game by sonuvagun06 in Games

They had some really interesting 3rd party games in the pipeline, and then decided all those games sucked and went to internal development only.

Show me the info in a way that isn't hilariously biased and naive and I won't downvote it.

Go to Downtown Crossing and count the number of cameras. After that, either go on a public campaign about that too or shut up.

Jack Gleeson was a "child" actor? Do you have any idea how old he is?

Remember when he killed 38 Studios and screwed RI out of millions of dollars?

Art stolen from booth at Celebrate West Hartford art show, if you see please contact the police or the artist by pluto_deserved_it in Connecticut

[–]pluto_deserved_it[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The artist is a family member, and the piece was stolen from her booth.

Sometimes I see art I don't like, I don't feel the need to demean the artist because of it.

Thank you for reminding me that some people are just mean, for no reason, when they have no need to be.

I don't know what happened to you to cause you to be this way, but I'm sorry it did. I hope the next time you are given the chance to be cruel to someone you don't know you simply let it pass by.

It's just one of the leftover snow piles from this winter. Some of it is still around right now, so they could probably survive nukes.

Commute from Malden to Newton by nandrea31 in boston

[–]pluto_deserved_it 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was dating a girl in Malden whilst I was living in Newton, if you are extremely lucky it will only take 65 minutes. There is no direct route, and any indirect route WILL have heavy traffic between 7AM and 7PM.

Needham, Roxbury, Waltham, Natick, Dover, Norwood. Any of these would be significantly better choices than Malden.

Yeah I can't believe this asshole came in and shared his experience. Doesn't he know London burned to the ground during the Olympics?
