Uh, did you even watch the first part of that video? Where he EXPLICITLY said that he had to put his daughter in private school just to get the same level of education that used to be available publicly in Harlem? Public schools have gone to absolute shit, and I'm in that small pile on the...

lulz. Talk about arguing from the wrong set of facts.

Rap music and MD 20/20.

Uh, are you a moron? Humanssubsistedfor hundreds of thouands of years before government. Only once societies and governments began to appear did human civilization actually develop at any significant pace.

Those shitty schools do not prepare even the best among those kids for college. Sure, you graduate, but that piece of paper has no value. Even lots of public white high schools are not preparing kids for college these days. Luckily the colleges have responded by dumbing down the curriculum...

In my experience, it's been the opposite. It'salwaysbeen the ones born into wealth or other societal advantages, making it trivial for them to not only maintain basic living standards but also make more money going forward, who complain the hardest about making things fair enough that other...

And here we get closer to the modern reactionary argument: "Things are fair enough for me that I can compete in an evolving global economy. However, any further attempts at making things fairer would just increase the pool of people I have to compete with, while providing no direct benefit to...

Oh good, now we're at least up to 19th century arguments. Just 2 more centuries to go, we're closing that gap at breakneck pace.

The problem is that I don't have enough room to put it on the floor beside my desk, so it's actually under my desk, and I keep kicking it. Also, as soon as it gets cold, the baseboard radiator is right next to it, that's going to be a problem.

Modern civilization: People, who would not survive 5 minutes if it wasn't for the government protecting all of their shit, complaining that other people with no shit want help from the government getting shit in the first place. That's how it's always been. The people who have shit want a...

It happens basically everywhere there isn't government that establishes some baseline level of equality, justice and security. Seriously guys, let's at least have Enlightenment era discussions. This shit was figured out 400 years ago.

I just put my PC on the floor to free up desk space. I feel like a failure and a bad parent.

97 pounds. This desk job is making me fat.

And people said black people were just born to be slaves. It's never been particularly good logic.

If you're still running at 1080p the RX 480 is probably the last video card you'll ever need. Then again, the 1060 GTX will probably be just as good, if not better.

There's nothing new under the sun. This is an old argument. There's no such thing as equality in nature. There's no such thing as freedom or safety in nature either. The state of nature is that life is nasty, brutish and short. Hence, we build governments to establish some reasonable...

How do you preorder from Amazon? I don't have that option.

It's called 12 hours of sitting in a windowless NOC with heavily filtered internet. AKA hell.

How do you actually find the good content though? And then get into an actual game to play it?

You're not even trying to make sense.

You're conflating 'what boys are actually attracted to' with 'how society grooms girls from a young age.' Social norms often don't make any real sense. Also, 'what boys are actually attracted to' has changed a lot faster than social norms have.

One littered with washed out colors and proper posture.

Exactly. "If you don't portray physical/emotional/sexual vulnerability, boys won't like you and you'll die alone with your cats." Every girl has this written inside of her Trapper Keeper.

This isn't a question about whether strong womencanbe sexy. This is about how the majority of girls are raised to express their gender/sexuality.

ITT: Supposedly straight men who think they're more experts on how girls are raised than women are.

Case in point: women are, as a simple fact of biology, more likely to be cold. Yet, they are more likely to wear less clothes than men, because female gender expression is about wearing clothes that expose skin to portray vulnerability. If we were just following simple biology, rather than...

I am not saying that guys are only attracted to one thing. I am talking about how girls are groomed from a young age, to be vulnerable/portray vulnerability. Men are also not the sole perpetrators of this grooming. Girlscanstill overcome this grooming and still be attractive to men, but it is...

I didn't say anything like this. I didn't make any such value judgment at all. I'm just stating the fact that girls are groomed from a young age to portray vulnerability, and that this continues into sexuality maturity and is expressed as a large part of feminine sexuality. This is a thing...

The latest extreme fitness trends have struck a small blow against traditional 'soft' femininity, but they're still always shown with their entire stomachs exposed, non-threatening pose, etc. When a woman is shown in a threatening or powerful pose, it's still considered a paraphilia/fetish...

Or you could lower the brightness to a reasonable level, calibrate for a decent black level and contrast, and then not slouch.

Tautological arguments imply tautology.

I feel like that has been enumerated pretty well.

Smelling nice, as in food that is ready to be devoured. Having smooth, soft, vulnerable skin, not the calloused skin that comes from doing physical labor. Having huge tits, being unable to get up off one's back in a hurry, being ripe for impregnation, etc. Obviously adding hyperbole to...

Sorta. I don't really get along with other feminists either. So I actually might be a TEFERF.

While I can't make the logical leap she has come to associate this with her predicament, in a vacuum I find this statement to be true. Female sexuality is, fundamentally in our society, about the expression of vulnerability, sexualizing ones own vulnerability, etc. Our society grooms girls to...

Psychiatrists these days are almost always useless for anything outside of writing 'scripts. Also, don't confuse culture with biology, or you're guilty of the same things these insane people are. A lot of that post has to do with the realities of living in the LGBTQ subculture and have...

Wasn't supposed to be working today. Coworker mysteriously vanished during part of their shift. So I am working today. Right now.

Is GTA Online any good? I could never figure out what you were actually supposed to do. Most of the deathmatch maps sucked. Did they ever add better missions or vs maps?
