The developer of Brigador is a secret chud, don't give him money
So on top of the racism topic, I found out that imgur has a sexism topic now too.

I am sure you would never have whined about Obama until he was out of office. (you did)





These both involved Fox News. Fair and balanced.

And here is where my anonymizer changed her to Chris P Bacon.



Good to know what you really think of people my age, aunt. Also, good job finding a token young black boy who agrees with you!

AND NOW

This next one is the one that made me have to post here, because someone equally batty replies to her and replies FOREVER



Yeah, lady, porn is women's fault.

gently caress all of you.

Also, wherein I say something I might regret to my Infowars cousin. (I try so hard not to invite family drama, but it was too perfect)

But like he could use his money to spend on practical ways to improve; hire the best therapists, life coaches, etc. He could host Lan parties in his mansion for charity or something. I think about all the sad e/n stories that boil down to 'this person is too poor to get the help they really need' and here's sadbrains Notch crying on his money mountain.

Being a caustic rear end in a top hat doesn't even get him much attention, dumb twitter slap fights when you're rich as gently caress is lame.

Didn't he have a fiancee before he got rich? What happened?

Yeah all he has to do is get out there. He has time and money.

He could start a fund for promising new indie game developers. Review the games and the plans of the developer and then invest in it if he thinks they're on the right track. It would be an investment so he would get a share of the returns. If the game doesn't turn out well then he at least tried and he will have met some people and heard some stories.

Give "extra credits" some money and have them write a few episodes on an interesting topic.

His rant about why minecraft couldn't have female models because the design of minecraft Steve is too basic was pretty loving dumb when you consider that Terraria successfully has female models.

Nice picture right? Well wait til you've read the comment the OP added to it

quote:

Seen today at the London March for Women.

Whilst women may have to contend with a lot of bullshit in the modern world, striving to make their voices heard is not one of them, particularly in the UK!

- We have had two female Prime Ministers (we're on our second one now), and ever-increasing numbers of our parliament are women.
- Women have had the right to vote since the 1910s, and have used it to incredible effect!
- Women have negotiated incredible opportunities and niches for themselves in the job market that negate any "pay gap", and allow any individual gifted and driven enough to make it to the top of their profession.

Dragging in the old Suffragette days, however, is not right. A woman from that era would tell anyone from today that society is unrecognisable, and the challenges faced today are dwarfed by what they faced in your name.

Whilst sexism and idiocy from a select few in society are still a yoke on the shoulders of women, you have achieved so much, and should be proud of what you have achieved! I am happy for you, and want to continue that success, so please ignore the bleatings of idiots, and work with the vast majority of us men who actually think before engaging our mouths to everyone's betterment.

Worked for me, but the gist of it is that side effects were popping up in greater frequency and magnitude than earlier tests had predicted, which meant something was going wrong, somewhere.

That this drug was sent back to the drawing board is a sign that the FDA is doing its job- not that men didn't want to put up the side effects (actually many of the test subjects said that it was worth it).

Women's birth control having such crap side effects is still very lovely, and is a product of both laxer regulations from the era, mixed with a hefty dose of sexism, yeah. But for women of the era, "no baby" was worth the price, even if they were ones paying it.

It's impossible to know if this male drug would have been accepted by the FDA in the 50s, or if the pill would be passed today, (which would be clear indicators of sexist reasoning), but in conclusion, essentially the FDA shouldn't lower its standards in the interest of fairness, because low standards helped to create the unfairness. Instead focus should be focused on improving the women's pill + making sure the male version does what they think it will do (although having expected side effects are alright).
And even with those pretty loving serious side effects, the majority of the men wanted to continue using the drug.
So uhh, gently caress those who think it's about ~men can't handle the effects women have~ because it is not only a complete mischaracterization of the people involved, but the complete opposite of what happened.


After the WMoW solidarity walk here in Iceland we had a few nutters in the comments of the local tabloid rag; one was in English and one brief enough that translation is worth it:
"0.04% is then about 132 losers that showed up the walk in Iceland. And how many showed up? Really 403? 0.1% support. That would be considered bad in elections. How many showed up for the walks in Saudi Arabia and Iran?"

He had a bunch more insane screeds but translating them is a waste of my time and yours, alas

Why are these people obsessed with Saudi Arabia? They seem to think liberals have massive boners for it. Have we even been close allies of Saudi Arabia since Bush left office?

Deceitful Penguin
Feb 16, 2011
It's because Saudi Arabia is arguably (and with very strong arguments) the absolutely worst country in the world. A hateful theocracy run by a hereditary dictator that exports an ultra-right wing branch of Islam as well as participating in some of the shittiest conflicts around while refusing to render any aid whatsover.

Which means that when the liberals cozy up to them, rear end kissing and handholding, it's an easy way to attack them and portray them as corrupt hypocrites. (Because they are)

Welcome to a small batch of "Stuff I found while looking at a news link on Facebook."

First off, let's have a militant SJW conspiracy with a side of "I objectified you, BUT NOW I WON'T, THAT'LL TEACH YOU!"



You can only have rights if I help you get them. Also I need to stop using scare quotes.



Our women have the most rights anywhere! Let's assume this is true. So as long as we have the most rights, we shouldn't seek equal rights because we're better off than elsewhere?



TAXES COME FROM THE GOVERNMENT YOU STUPID gently caress



Those things are not entirely inaccurate. Also I bet your wife can watch a hateful Trump speech just fine.
