Confederate flag was not a symbol of hate and racism in the past, and it's only a symbol of hate and racism to people on the left, today. In the real world where that flag exists, it's not about that.

So the literal only evidence she had was an angry 7 year-old? I mean... cheating is certainly grounds for divorce, but it seems like you'd want to be a lot more certain of it if you valued the marriage.

He's still at fault. You're supposed to maintain enough control of your vehicle -- speed, distance from person in front of you -- to stop in the event its necessary. Even with the camera, he's liable.

The insane thing is that Ketanji's supreme court opinion had virtually nothing to do with law, and was foremost an essay on racial grievance. She overtly demonstrated that she doesn't understand her role as a supreme court justice and has no allegiance to the constitution.

I've heard a handful of people (mostly men, two women) that have tried this out and reported similar results -- first month is terrible, and then things sort themselves out afterward. Been curious for decades, but unwilling to try.

It definitely increases sex trafficking. Legalizing prostitution (in Germany) made it almost impossible for law enforcement to investigate anything to do with prostitution, like whether or not girls were being coerced, whether they were dependent on pimps, whether they had been

Wait a minute... how come they're all Slavic, all women, and all beautiful? They're taking the Slavic Women's Beauty pageant awfully literally, don't you think?

The alleged photograph of Katsuke in the 1500's -- centuries before the invention of a camera? You'd have to be staggeringly ignorant to believe such a thing.

It illustrates what a well-planned society would be like. When freedom is a lower priority than efficiency and order, the people who "will already prosper in every society" live a pretty good life, while everyone else is landfill.

I quit buying HP a long time ago.
I bought a desktop scanner that didn't come with it's driver disc. I called them up and they effectively told me it wasn't their policy to offer drivers online, because they sold "replacements" for $40. I told them that was insane because I

Sorta boils down to this:
A low-performing segment of the population does things the easiest way because they can't do things any other way.
A high-performing segment of the population does things the easiest way because they're concerned with throughput.
The middle-performing

I "accidentally" found a GPS tracking and listening device while I was carefully scanning my vehicle with counter-surveillance equipment.
@ScottAdamsSays
How many people are actively lying to pollsters? Three months ago, it didn't occur to me that anyone did that. I've been shocked to learn that almost all my conservative acquaintances do it on purpose. Pollsters are not neutral observers. They're using you to undermine you.

Endless demands and expectations of him, but if he asks for even the smallest of courtesies... Every man is better off without a woman like her.

When I saw it up close last summer, it looked like bits of it were offline/ broken. I expect that it needs tons of constant maintenance and repairs above and beyond the electricity.
@lporiginalg
If you want him to want you, you have to add something to his life. Awful lot of younger women think guys should "have to deal with them" while giving men no reason at all to put up with extreme entitlement. Zero benefit to them = zero tolerance for you.

Moore's attempt to satirize Rorschach and his worldview comes off as more sincere than the actual beliefs Moore holds. Seems to be a problem with a lot of people on ideological fringes.

The story is more like:
She rented a car. She wrecked the car. She refused to pay for the damages. They refused to give her back her credit card and passport, which she gave them as collateral when she rented it. She started "screaming at them."
@WomenPostingLs
That's a glow-up, huh? Hey, I love and appreciate freedom. But it's sad and exhausting to see so many people crash and burn when they break free.
@WomenPostingLs
Yep. And every girl he dated also got bored of him for being too nice, until his friends decided to help a brother out, and train him to be a jerk. And then girls never dumped him again.
@DelusionPosting
Gay marriage wasn't ever legalized in West Bank. When West Bank was annexed by Jordan, homosexuality was "decriminalized" because Jordanian law didn't criminalize homosexuality. It wasn't protected -- there just wasn't a law about it, and gay people were persecuted just like

Is Eros still online? I knew a guy circa 2003 (I think) that used that site. He was in finance and had this excel spreadsheet where he entered all the prostitutes' stats. He had a formula calculating height to weight per dollar ratio so he could optimize his hooker spending.
@WomenPostingLs
So... while you were withholding intimacy with this guy "until you were exclusive", you were banging a guy who was "just a friend." Oh yeah, I'd have dumped her, too. Waiting until they were exclusive I can accept. The "we weren't exclusive" thing I can accept. But the "I'm a

Interesting that they instantly worked in perfect unison, with no communication, like they had practiced it or the natural instinct was just synchronized.

I mean... seems fair enough. They want to be self-governing without foreign influence -- I'd almost describe that as a basic human right. It's nobody's job to save them from their own choices.

I genuinely don't think trans people understand how little people want to participate in their fantasies and how illegitimate their pain is when people don't play that game.

Weird. Something that gets so much attention could vanish and nobody would notice. It's like their popularity is just as fake as their jokes.

Food prices are crazy, and I feel bad for everyone. But ... Organic tomatoes on the vine are like 3 times as expensive as normal tomatoes. And a pre-marinated rack of ribs like $20. I wouldn't be prioritizing that kind of purchase if I was feeling financially threatened.

I don't know what you think is going to happen to that kid, but in the end, he's just going to have a scary conversation. They're not going to put him in prison and he isn't going to serve hard time.

I was actually worried that my daughter (born 18 weeks premature!!! ) might be autistic when she was young and medical professionals took it seriously. Learned what is and isn't autism, and the psychiatrist is taking the correct posture. Autism in pop culture is not real autism.
@WomenPostingLs
I've seen a version of this many times. She likes the illusion that she has so many options that she can afford to reject some of them. But when there was actually only one person asking her out, and he moved on, her fantasy is falling apart.

The concept of a melting pot and the concept of diversity are kinda different. In the melting pot idea, everyone is expected to assimilate. In the diversity idea, everyone goes their own way.

Working 25 hours a week and complaining that he can't achieve the American dream. I get that there's a policy decision which incentivizes one employer to keep you part-time, and it sucks. But then you need to get a second job. You're not even close to full-time employed.
@WomenPostingLs
So her boyfriend was cheating on her *and* she had an OnlyFans? uh-huh. Guess what! If you have an OnlyFans, you don't have an exclusive relationship. Intimacy has no value.

I mean... she was furious about something that didn't happen and he had no control over. Which means "Never under estimate the random volatility of a woman."

Corn is indigenous to North America, and unknown in the "old world" until the European exploration of the Americas. It is not a "Jewish food."
@DelusionPosting
Legalizing sex work has proven to increase trafficking. When sex work is legal, it's much harder for police to investigate prostitution to determine whether or not sex workers are being coerced and exploited.
@DeIudedShaniqwa
Lighter hair, lighter skin, lighter colored eyes... Except for overt genetic defects like albinism, every culture in every part of the world, throughout history found lighter variants of these features prettier and darker features less attractive.
@greentexts_bot
Kinda different. Ukraine hasn't ever been our ally, an economic partner, a strategic partner, or even friendly towards the USA. Israel has been all of those things for close to a century.
Sorta, anyway. Our relationship with Israel has always been more a liability than asset.

One time when I was a teen, I wondered what would happen if I let myself pee (not with any force) but pinched the tip of my dick shut so it couldn't come out. The answer is immense pain and a lot of blood and horror. How could I explain this shit if I did myself serious harm?!
