Yep, especially when they implemented the Terror Alert levels that was constantly displayed on all major networks. Because it was so important for you to know that today has a yellow risk of terrorism.

Based on voting records those pensioners are the ones supporting the police state, so I have no sympathy.

Women have used sex as currency for as long as we have had written history

Its not just a human thing. In 2005 an economist and psych taught capuchin monkeys about money, exchanging tokens for food.

It took several months of training for the capuchins to learn that they could exchange such a token for fruit.[...] Researchers observed that the monkeys could even budget. Researchers then changed the market and put Jell-O at a lower price, to see if monkeys would buy fewer grapes and more Jell-O. They acted exactly like the current laws of economics dictate for humans as well.

But then they decided to limit the number of tokens to create scarcity

One of the researchers, during the chaotic episode mentioned earlier, observed how one of the monkeys (a female) exchanged money with another (a male) for sex. After the act was over, the monkey which was paid immediately used it to buy a grape.

I can’t imagine what the argument for banning people from putting up bulletproof glass must be.

"DATS RACIST!"

Sources (KF) are saying that the lawsuit was never about the cheating allegations, and was about the ApolloLegend comment the entire time. So Karl seems to have lied in most of his reporting about the case.

tl;dr: Youtuber Karl Jobst and 'pro gamer' Billy Mitchell have been having a back and forth spat for years. Billy is quite the cheater when it comes to records both old and new, and Karl garnered millions of views calling him out. So Billy sued Karl in an AU court (where Karl lives) for defamation. Karl told everyone it was for the cheating allegations, turns out it was for Karl implying that Billy had a hand in ApolloLegend's suicide (another YTer).

Apparently the defamation suit was focused on Karl's allegations that Billy caused ApolloLegend to commit suicide, not the cheating claims as Karl had been reporting. Being tried in an Australian court for defamation, he really had no chance.

I went to Barnes & Noble for the first time in about 10 years (I was watching my niece ice skate at the mall) and they had a huge section of these softcore pornographic books for women. Some had loving reviews hand written by the bookstore staff. I watched as women with ages ranging from 15-60s perused the shelves with great enthusiasm. Kind of weird to be surrounded by so many fujoshi.

It's kind of boring how this board/community/subforum is just a general social commentary space

You have a collective 2 comments here. Feel free to show yourself out.

Just something to remember each time they complain about 'emotional labor' or 'unequal domestic labor.'
