The thing about all these men is they could date anybody. They're rich, they're famous. They could bag socialites or models or actresses or whoever. Instead they single out the most vulnerable women and girls they can find. They cannot form relationships with women who are their peers.

blocklists might be one of the worst features of this site just because you have to place insurmountable amounts of trust in a random person operating them to not cut you off from entire networks without notice or appeal
really the only advice I can give both new and old users is don’t sub to blocklists, because people use them for revenge and trolling and you’ll end up blocking people you like 💀
Why tf? Were you added to one of these revenge blocklists? I have a bunch of folks blocking me because of those. Alas :///

my woke take is that entirely too many people feel entitled to the benefits of a social contract while not feeling bound by the responsibilities of said contract

I feel crazy that I have to argue that labelling everything for "gooners" (which has gone from effectively marathon edging sessions to literally all masturbation or sexual desire) is just indication that we're in the puritanical backlash portion of gaming culture, and it's wild how this has flipped
#MarvelRivals director was asked what he thinks about people calling it a 'gooner game' 🎮
"They all come from classic comic designs ... I'm very grateful these designs have been well received by the majority of our players"

I've been broadly skeptical BF6 for various reasons but apparently it's shipping with a bespoke version of Godot as a user map editor?
That's like, genuinely sick as hell.

Porn and art with sexual themes deserve to exist on their own merit, not because censoring them has knock-on effects for non-sexual content. Please stop expressing outrage by implying that censorship would be okay if it *just* affected sex workers and artists engaging with sexual themes.

I haven't posted about this for a while because unemployment has just become part of who I am for the past few years, but the whole process is just... Demoralizing to say the least.
Doesn't make me feel the least bit sympathetic towards recruiters because of how poorly they treat applicants.

Disrespectfully, I need anyone who has not looked for a job within the past year to shut up because shit has changed. Your advice and experience doing this in the past means nothing. You have not job hunted like people are job hunting right now, don’t give people false hope with your outdated ideas

When I met Ryan Coogler several years ago, we were standing in a group of people chatting, when a woman with visible hearing aids walked up, and he casually began to sign the whole conversation so she could participate. She mouthed “thank you”. He nodded and just kept doing his thing.
‘Sinners’ on Max Will Include a Black American Sign Language Version
‘Sinners’ on Max Will Include a Black American Sign Language Version
Max will debut Sinners in the U.S. on Friday July 4, when viewers will be able to watch it two ways: by 1) streaming the exact theatrically-released version, and 2) choosing Sinners in Black American Sign Language (BASL). It’s the first time a streaming service has interpreted a film into BASL, Warner Bros. says.
