The idea of the 'sjw autoblocker' is sort of hilarious to me. Let's block these people who really don't want to deal with us! That'll show them!

Somehow I evaded the list, and I don't know why. I follow a lot of their most hated people on there.

I'm not terribly fond of the form of that video personally either but the message is sound. (Then again I just don't really care for 'talking heads' on videos basically at all. If you have something to say, I can read it, thanks.)

edit: so this is making the rounds. you know, like forever ago, when post IDs were 5~6 digits, I was a channer. I grew out of it, but a lot of this is very familiar.

I get confused with being female in text-only online games sometimes because I'm actually literate. And if that's a sampling of what my friends have to put up with, well... I'll just say I'm not surprised a fair number of them would pretend to be a guy if given the chance.

Part of that is cultural for sure, but at the same time there are a lot of people that literally do not know how to treat others and have their brains fall out of their skull when they hear someone is female. You said anything? Well, you're clearly just looking for attention / faking it because you want me that badly. Etc. Dumb.

just leaving this here

also heh that oxford article's comments got bombarded fast. "No, actually, it's about-" that they clearly didn't even bother to figure out what the article was even about, apparently.
