  1. Speaking as a woman who’s been on the receiving end of those kinds of calls/conversations/texts/emails/DMs/etc. It’s no mystery to me. It’s the self-assessed invulnerability of a certain kind of toxic man. They pick the perceived “weakest of the ‘herd’” and make her the target of deniable on their face harassment and creepy behavior in order to make her afraid and hopefully malleable to future escalating attempts to get her in a position in which their can ramp up “locker room” talk into more aggressive overtures. Those kinds of men take advantage of the social conditioning of women - we’re taught to be polite! Don’t make a scene! Don’t be aggressive! It could damage your career and future! Just humor them and deflect and de-escalate! And it will all be okay! Until it becomes obvious what these men see instead of aloof politeness and friendly brush-offs is permission to continue. Read her responses. They saw an assumed “weak target” and decided to go after her.

  4. I'm upset that I see myself slipping to the other side as well. Meaning, I now see them as the "others" because they are everything I would never want to be as a human being. They are the worst parts of our society. I know I shouldn't paint them in such a broad manner, but I'm not sure what choice I have now. If you agree with what these people stand for, you are a bad human being. Period.

  11. "It is impossible to properly thank Porter for all he's done for our basketball program and University," Loyola Chicago athletic director Steve Watson said in a statement. "His vision and leadership brought Loyola to new heights and Ramblers everywhere will be eternally grateful. A huge thank you and best wishes, from all Ramblers, are rightfully being extended to Porter and his family as they embark on their next journey." Compare how the AD of Loyola Chicago handled his coach’s departure w the classless, clown show that Texas Tech Nation regularly exhibits.

  14. By the look of my FB feed, loving this trend. All the right wing pieces of shit are basically down to golf and F1 racing, except they hate those fucking Euros. Golf is up next. Pretty soon they’ll be down exclusively to bowling and professional cornhole league. Maybe they’ll take a new interest in the World Cup because they respect all the workers killed building the stadiums in Qatar for a bunch of wealthy pieces of shit.

  26. maybe i'm in the minority here, but i don't want gaetz to resign. dragged away in handcuffs, sure. that would be fun. but gaetz, mtg, boebert, gym - keep them in their ~elevated, high-profile positions where they can act like idiots for the world to see. yes, many on the right love that shit, but plenty do not. they're not making laws. they're not going to be senators. they're not going to be president. keep the nuts in the nuthouse. make the gop house a humiliating fucking joke and make sure everybody views them that way.

  30. Correct me if I'm wrong but Georgia didn't find any evidence of wide spread voter fraud with the current voting setup but decided to change it anyway? Yet the MLB is being "knee-jerk" in their reaction to voter suppression and removed the ASG from the ATL? Good gravy.

  34. Even less miniscule is the risk of vaccination resulting in a severe adverse event. But the upside is individual immunity and contribution to herd immunity, which not only serves to protect unvaccinated high risk individuals that are vax eligible but also the many high risk individuals that may not be protected by vaccines or are ineligible such as the immunocompromised and children. Population level risk analysis...

  37. I have been struggling a lot lately with the same as a lot of you. People and family I have always deemed level headed and respected who have just gone to the dark side. Not militantly so, or in your face, but still just in normal conversation you know where they now stand. And you feel lonely, because you lost another friend. Eric Swalwell wrote a great column today. Basically it goes into how so many of our politicians, particularly GOP side, tend to think of themselves as 'entertainers' instead of representatives. And their constituents are now their 'fans.' I'm not real sure why this is working so well on the deplorables, but it is. There's also a section on civility and manners, which has been highlighted in this thread by @Antidean about his stepson.

  38. Well this pretty much cements it that he didn’t just bail to Texas because we money whipped him... and pretty much confirms that he never gave TT a chance to counter or even entered a negotiation. Texas called and it was over. So go get your fucking shine box Tech fans..
