What about drug-dealers' AK-47s that fire lollipops? Checkmate, atheists

I don't like Laurie Penny at all, but this article is really good: https://psmag.com/on-the-milo-bus-with-the-lost-boys-of-americas-new-right-629a77e87986#.z2misbdgz" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="...

EEH! My guy! Good to see you.

Ooh, I read about this a while ago. To me, it's unambiguous sexual harassment and a reminder why gamers are the absolute fucking worst*. Being a Shrill Manhating Harpy, I think most things in human society have misogyny issues but gaming culture is the apex for gross shit. I have never played online...

I just realised I wrote 'obsession need' so obviously my pedantry does not extend to proofreading.

Oh, also I sell all of your personal data to companies and read out your private messages to my friends in a silly voice but that is just standard mod practice.

(This is a sarcasm, I cannot read any of your personal messages or see your details)

Hi, kuribo. Depends on what you mean by "Evageeks rules." I doubt the admin/mods here are quite that persnickety. In my sacred duty as a moderator, I promise not to go mad with power and destroy you all. All of my modding so far has been shifting threads to different forums because of my ...

Hello and welcome!

Apparently Maher said '“If Mr. Yiannopoulos is indeed the monster [man who didn't want to appear with him, Scahill] claims—and he might be—nothing could serve the liberal cause better than having him exposed on Friday night." Except... we don't need to know any more about Yiannopoulos than we a...

I met so many terrible people on IMDb and I am pleased to say that I am still friends with all of them.

I can no longer hear Kiss From A Rose without thinking of this. One of the sublime pleasures of animal ownership is picking them up and singing to them while they attempt to leave:

Night Watch, by Terry Pratchett. I'm a big Pratchett fan.

Also also also, there seems to be a ongoing argument that mass murdering in US society is not a gun thing but is a mental health thing so presumably we want *more* healthcare officials asking gentle questions about both your likelihood and material capacity to climb a belltower and go what is medica...

Also, I don't want to fall into the trap of assuming that doctors are infallible knowledge-gods because I have seen some cunty doctors in my time* but I am comfortable with assuming that most of the things my doctor says and does are done in their capacity as a medical professional with my best inte...

I don't really see the problem with a doctor asking if there's no legal obligation to tell them. My doctor asks me all sorts of shit about my life with the hope of getting a better general picture of my lifestyle and any potential hazards to my health (statisically speaking, a gun in one's home *is*...

That is my life 24/7 and I could not recommend it more highly.

I don't always like Stuart Heritage but when I do, I love him.

You never told us your cousin was Mel Gibson.

Ah, Killing The Minds Of Male Babies, the less successful followup of Rage Against The Machine, from their album Masculinity Is Super Fragile.

^ I'm the complete opposite with LotR - love the films to death, never got through the books because they bored me senseless.

I really like Now You See Me. It's got Mark Ruffalo and Woody Harrelson, two actors I really enjoy, and is about magicians doing magic shit, which is always good. I really liked the first three Hunger Games films too although I haven't seen part two of Mockingjay yet. And Ridley Scott's Robin Hood *...

Shawshank Redemption. It's... fine, I guess? I don't get what the big deal is, I vastly prefer The Green Mile in the niche of 'Stephen King stories adapted by Frank Darabont'. Also The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Don't get the love. Saw it because no one would shut up about it. Have never confessed t...

I've been keeping my beady eyes on this one, it looks really interesting. Daniel Kaluuya was in my favourite episode of Black Mirror and knocked it out of the park so I know he's going to be great.

Troy! You're baaaaack!

I work in a school and the only wildlife we need to worry about in my part of the world is seagulls. You should worry about seagulls though because seagulls don't feel fear or pity and are prone to a genetic condition known as being 'completely bastard mental'.

Hello there, fluffy new board lambkin!

YOU LYING NAZI LIAR

Hope you have a good 'un, you Nazi.

I fucking said during the lead up to Brexit that Leavers were blaming the wrong people for the fact that we're all poor and that they'll continue to blame the wrong people after Brexit when we're even poorer. I live in one of the poorest parts of the UK and we (the county, I mean, not me, REMAIN4LYF...

Aw, I hate you too

And people always say, "Well, if you let the government take away Nazis' freedom of speech, then that'll be just a slippery slope to banning ANOTHER group's freedom of speech!" Oh, just give me a fucking break. No, it's not. Germany's banned Holocaust denial and it hasn't slipped into a f...

Right, my fluffy darlings, I am BACK. I mean, I was back last night but I was so flipping tired that it took me about three hours to get into bed because I couldn't negotiate my pyjamas. I am going to start with My Very Important Treatise on why I don't care if Nazis get hit and then go back through...

If a black guy is mean to you, it doesn't give you the right to call him the n-word Umm, renowned professor of ethics Marv would strongly disagree with you. I just saw a Facebook thread in which some guy was making fun of an MRA by calling him misogynist slurs and other emasculating things (tiny pe...

Goddammit man, I knew you were going to post something RIGHT as I was leaving to go to dance with weird old men. Will read and reply properly when I get back, big kisses, etc, byeeee

I am also surprised it is split down the middle, but for the opposite reason - namely that every time I start thinking about a universe in which I care whether a Nazi got punched in the face, I start laughing.

Also, just to clog up this thread further, I'm sorry Anakin because I think I dragged us off-topic (ME?) but I have a lot of SJW feelings right now because it has been a pretty shitty year to be a crybaby liberal. Basically what you said here: Another thing I forgot to add - sometimes, the issue cho...

That's not me taking a side against anyone; it's just that I know where he would stand and how much more personally it would affect him than some others.

I miss Troy.

But when people start making issues out of things that aren't really issues they're just handing ammunition to other side. And until you've won the war (or at least are decidedly winning the war) you can't do that. Because (as Cash says) it motivates people who might otherwise be moderate enough no...

Why is the onus always on those who are sensitive to be less sensitive, and not on those who are causing it to be somewhat less insensitive? I ALWAYS hear "stop being so sensitive, the world is not going to conform to your sensibilities you precious snowflake", I never hear the opposite, ...

If you are wondering if I am drunk, this is how I get when I am very very tired and you should be grateful I only used the word 'thing' seven times because normally it's more and also there are hand gestures
