Literally The Worst posted:citation needed He's a pretty funny example of tokenism. Polygon hired him as pretty much a click-bait magnet. He openly posts on Twitter that he has no idea what most games are, how they work, or what goes into making them. His one trick is bitching about white people constantly. He's also the only non-white person on a staff of about 20 and never says poo poo about it.

The Warszawa posted:There are now anti-manspreading municipal ads on at least two major subway lines in NYC. I wish it hadn't been called "manspreading," I guess (although it is almost universally men who are doing it), because now the basic decency concept of "your balls don't need their own seat, rear end in a top hat, I have a bad knee and I want to sit down" is "everything that is wrong with internet feminism."

Well if it helps the city ads just call it "spreading," but literally say "stop the spread dude". There are separate ads about bags taking up seats and such.

The bag thing is also annoying, and signs may actually help, because a lot of the people doing it are tourists who genuinely have not thought about how it will inconvenience people.

I think instead of making less video games for females and minorities, I think they should make more video games for females and minorities, and in general. Thank you for your time.

What pushed it into the stratosphere of dumb was the constant pictures taken by idiots wanting internet cred of people doing it on mostly empty subway cars at night. Almost none of their pictures actually showed anyone causing any discomfort or problems, but they just had to cultivate that outrage anyway. As someone who rode public transit a lot too, youre right, there are tons of assholes who take up way too much space. Turining it into some sort of witch hunt on black dudes in mostly empty train cars derailed it (ha) pretty quickly, though.

A little bit late on this point, but: You definitely need at least 4 new entities/spaces to make a bingo. That is already assuming you're counting the free space, so that's irrelevant.

I usually agree with Anita says except for what she thought about Mad Max Fury Road where she was reaching about her criticisms about it. Because a movie set in the post apocalyptic raider filled wasteland is going to be violent no matter what you do. Or was that the other guy who was using her account as a shield to say his dumb opinions.

So I'm going to blame him. Though I have a pre-existing bias of thinking Anita's videos are mostly right but boring, while thinking that McIntosh is human garbage who should be forced to live in a poor house.
