Fortunately, woodland creatures don't hire lawyers

  • You would fit right in on our instance

  • I was 6 ft and 200 lbs. Not obese by any stretch. Trying to lose the dad bod and get back to where I was before I retired from field work.

    My goal is to actually be leaner than that, now that I actually have time to pay attention to fitness and diet.

  • When you're a fatty, loathing is at an all time high. I was never fat, but I've lost 20 lbs since February eating pretty similar to this

  • I'm cutting as well, and this plate is scarily similar to where I've landed for my meal prep. Pretty much chicken and rice, but I at least do a rub or marinade.

  • Imagine being a tin basher in the 1880s and wondering what your great grandkids would get up to, and it ends up being something your mind can't comprehend

  • This guy gets it.

  • song as old as timeTale as old as rhymeCapitalism and the disease

  • Exactly.

  • The other thing to consider is that you can't let them go to seed. Metals can accumulate there as well, and you also don't want to introduce an invasive

  • I'm just here for the bruised male egos. I'm male, and I find the but what do you mean I'm not welcome there comments entertaining.

    I'm with you, OP: they shouldn't have to restrict their visibility to avoid a demographic they don't want to have in their community. Women should have a space to talk to women only, if they so desire. Those complaining about it need to realize that places where men are not welcome exist in the real world, and yet there aren't a bunch of dudes protesting to be allowed into a women's change room at the Rec center.

    E: Ha, go ahead and downvote me, you dorrito munching TaterTots™. Maybe doing so will make you fill your jar with a Rainbow Dash mini faster

  • Kakapo

    Jump
  • I haven't tried to fuck a rock, but I've definitely dug thousands of pits. You'd think I'd pull like a freight train by kakapo logic, but sadly, women don't find men who are never home overly attractive, despite how well they dig.

  • I don't know if it's any better than the other options out there, but I like tidal.

  • We got a sharp one here!

  • Blood feeds blood. Blood calls blood. Blood is, and blood was, and blood shall ever be.

  • You're on point at least on the capitalism behind this. I didn't want to dive into it because my comment was long enough, but I'm glad you did

  • Calling it out in person works a lot better than online. Online it's just mean words on a screen they have to deal with. A living, breathing person telling them they are dumb has more sting.

  • Grandma be like

  • I talk about this in another comment on a different post, but I'll give you the TLDR, plus a bit more musing:

    • At the highest level, this type of thinking stems from an erosion of parenting and the evolution of the digital age. It's not that parents don't care, but they have less time than they have historically to parent, and both parents have to work to support the family in most cases.
    • Kids now socialize less due to time spent online
    • The algorithms online are powerful and meant to keep you watching, even if it's not great for you
    • Because of the lack of parenting and being terminally on there is less and less interaction with positive male role model, so kids figuring themselves out latch on to anything they can find and it ends up being Tate and ilk because fear and anger sell, and they make us feel like if only we were just a bit better, we would have what the tatertots have.
    • To combat this, we need to make morons afraid again
    • Saying something outrageous used to cost you social capital but now everyone is too busy to care and there's been the rise of the ideal that all opinions are equal, confrontation, unless approved by the talking heads online, is bad, and everyone need to feel safe, heard, and their opinions as valid (at least to a degree)
    • We can best deal with this weaponized misogyny by calling people out - especially kids - as it crops up. If you're a coach on a hockey team and someone starts up, shut them down. Leagues have diversity and inclusion policies - use them to back yourself up.
    • Even if it's just someone else's kid you are around, while you may be afraid of speaking up, but chances are most parents would want to know their kid is calling women 'holes' or the like and will deal with it.

    The only way this goes away is if we address it at every stage, and every time it comes up.
