  • where are all the maga sports feminists

    Jump

  • I don’t know enough mma people to say, honestly. I know jiu jitsu bros, and they tend to be extreme in either direction, but more commonly very cool with women who also do jiu jitsu.

    My sister did a fuck ton of martial arts and some combat sports (no MMA), and is pretty thick skinned about sexism. According to her, the same is true for most martial artists and wrestlers, but boxers are more of an even mix.

    Edit: maybe it scales with head trauma?

  • I’m an American immigrant in Germany. It’s infuriating how many Germans complain to me about immigrants, then when hearing that I’m an immigrant, wave their hand and say I’m not like the others. I’m now a German teacher and married to a German, so they’ve always got plausible deniability that it’s about language or integration, but I wasn’t always good at German and I only met my husband after a few years here. It used to be much more fun to push back on why.

  • Do you agree?

  • My sister had a classmate whose mother and grandmother each got pregnant at 15. Starting when this girl was 15 and for the rest of high school, they basically never let her be alone with anyone.

    She did go a little wild in college, but she was well aware she didn’t want to get pregnant until she was settled.

    Edit: this was not intended as a counterpoint to the likeliness of this, both because teen pregnancy has also gone down a bunch since this family got started, and because “an internet commenter’s sister’s classmate” is legitimately more ridiculous than the example relationship I give to discredit urban legends.

  • Tbh, contact sports seem so much more disparate than non contact sports. Like, I’d expect Roger Federer to respect Steffi Graf (I’m old, okay?), but men’s hockey and rugby players seem less appreciative/respectful towards women’s hockey and rugby players.

    I suspect it’s a combination of the relatively greater importance of strength/mass and the heightened aggression involved

  • My Hispanic family in LA isn’t feeling too secure right now, especially since the local superintendents house and office were just raided by the FBI, apparently looking for students’ migration status.

    Yes, things could be worse. It’s fucking dangerous to be an immigrant/poc/disabled/lgbtq though.

  • It’s so weird to me. I recently “gave up” and started wearing comfy clothes like flannels, oversized sweaters, and mom jeans, then my 19 year old coworker told me I looked so cool and I legitimately thought she was joking at first.

  • Amazon BUSTED for Widespread Scheme to Inflate Prices Across the Economy— Amazon, its vendors, and competing retailers are price fixing, hiking up prices for consumer products, making Amazon richer

  • It’s like nicknames. First it’s Joseph, then Joe, then Napoleon Jonaparte.

  • Medusa likely would have had tiny snakes growing from her upper lip and chin as she aged.

    Jump

  • Damn. Maybe it’s unrealistic to have all your hair replaced with snakes.

  • I’ve been a server at multiple types of establishment in multiple countries. The only time anyone ever fucked with someone’s food/drink, it was because the customer had jumped one of the servers in the restaurant the week before and beaten the shit out of them.

    Jump

  • Then I probably wouldn’t go, but I don’t go and not tip because the menu is expensive.

  • straight down to business pls

  • Sounds lovely.

  • They still put the effort in. If it’s sloppy or poorly made and the bars not busy, I don’t get another one.

  • I really am completely and utterly incapable of doing stuff

    Jump

  • My cat is happier when things are clean. She has more space to run around and can lounge wherever she wants. Maybe use your cats as motivation?

  • Medusa likely would have had tiny snakes growing from her upper lip and chin as she aged.

    Jump

  • Yeah, tbh I hope she’s deaf, for her sake.

  • Plus, I’ll tip $1-2 for a fancy cocktail even if the service is crappy, because those take time to make, so I don’t really need to know what the service is like ahead of time unless it’s incredible. This sounds like it wasn’t though.

    Jump

  • I’m aware. I’m a vegan because I’m not down for animal rape. The bestiality laws are written with exceptions for people who are acting, not out of their own sexual interest, but out of financial interest.

    I wanted to have a slightly different discussion, because this one’s depressing as shit though.

  • I think medusas deaf. The cilia in your ear would be less effective if replaced by tiny snakes.

  • Student who punched another student holding pro-ICE sign at Lake Zurich High School received 2-day suspension

    Jump

  • Yes, though I would caution you about that level of reductiveness. I know men into Cuckholding and women into cuckqueaning and they’ve got relatively little in common personality-wise. They’re both founded on insecurity, but a kink for nuns and a kink for feet are both founded on a longing for the forbidden and they’re not the same.

    Edit: do femme and masc hit you better than women and men?
