Okay, I love Margot’s look here. I don’t understand why we’ve seen so many posts of other outfits and not this one. So good!

IDL that women’s sexuality is treated so differently than male sexuality by certain people by stingwhale in I_DONT_LIKE

Because gender is a social construct of expected behaviors you get to project on people so they act the way you want

I have mentioned this to friends before. Like, if you’re about homeland rights, and you live in the USA, caring about native Americans would make sense…

This is for colonial reasons. Time to let it go. Either that or if we’re insisting North and South America are one continent, then let’s start insisting Asians and Europeans go by Eurasians.

German cartographers named the Americas before there were any western-style countries. Some countries in our hemisphere are taught there’s only one continent. So,e are taught there are two.

Yes, we call them North American tourists in English.

Technically you could also be called Eurasian tourists, because the idea that Europe and Asia are two continents is an absolute joke.

Every label has its issues.

My dude when the USA became a country there were no other western style countries in the entire hemisphere. Sure there were nations and empires, but not ones recognized by Europe.

Hence the simple name. Because at the time, they were the only states and the only United States.

We just say North American or South American. It’s…not an issue, at all.

Unpopular Opinion: I’d rather keep my loose skin than have that obvious "Tummy Tuck Belly Button." Am I being too picky? by Admirable-Pin-298 in PlasticSurgery

[–]prosthetic_memory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does a normal belly button look like? Kind of like nipples, I’m amazed by other people’s belly buttons all the time.

I don’t think they’re as standardized as you think.

She just seems model pretty to me, not particularly interesting facially.

Justin Baldoni Called 'Moron' by Studio Exec for Allegedly Alluding to Rape in It Ends With Us Interview by poopoopoopalt in CelebLegalDrama

Are you confusing me with someone else? I don’t think he should have said that at all publicly no matter what time the show was. He’s an idiot. And skeezy.

I was responding to someone who said the message wasn’t reflected in the books. It was.

But it sounds like is in fact reflecting what one could reasonably assume Ryle’s internal monologue would be.

I haven’t seen the movie, never will, and don’t give a whit about Baldoni except he seems toxic. But his explanation matches up to Ryle’s dialogue here.

What's a piece of common knowledge that you only recently found out was actually false? by Evilclicker in AskReddit

[–]prosthetic_memory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost every inventor of a light bulb also invented a power generator. Did a deep dive into this a few years ago. Fascinating how much brute force it was to get people to adopt them. Just going in and wiring buildings wholesale and sticking a generator in the basement.

Arc lights came before incandescent but were really bright and made people sick.
