I don’t read DMs.
In 2012 (ish), I bought a lifetime subscription for a flat $75. Over the next few years of using it, they got worse and worse with shit like this, so I switched to Emby for a bit, and then Jellyfin. I never shared with friends, tho, because I have no friends, so it was always just a pretty interface and convenience for me. Lately, I’ve just been opening the files directly in VLC, because Remmina is refusing to connect to my media server, and I can’t be arsed to figure out why.
I’m not excusing the behavior, nor do I do this. I am saying it’s not nearly as ubiquitous as the author tries to make it seem. She’s biased because it happened to her, and of course she would be. But, don’t look at her claims as some sort of careful study.
It’s not all men, it’s not anywhere close to a majority. “There are forums with millions of members on mainstream sites…” still doesn’t constitute a huge percentage of men. And, I’m sure only a small percentage of those are sharing original pictures. She has way overstated the problem.
He wants to run again, but really, he wants to not need to run at all. Just dictator for life, which is probably not very long considering his age and health. Putin is his model for how “free and fair” elections should go.
I have faith that our Constitution will weather this and also no Republican will sit in the oval office in 2028.
You caught on early, and rejected it. There are plenty of new recruits introduced every day, who are taking it seriously.

I feel like this has been tried many times before.
It’s only when they go feral that they’re a problem.
It’s not that she didn’t like men in hats, she just preferred Men Without Hats.
Arcology: architectural ecology, a city intended to be contained in a single structure.
We’ll need to surround every Tesla store with cops. It will be like crossing a picket line to buy one, and should be protested as such.
Which is why, in the U.S., the rich are turning back abortion rights and access to birth control, and gutting our public education. They could, instead, work to build a country where people felt safe, and supported–healthcare, jobs with decent wages, education, etc.–but the filthy rich are psychopaths who care only about themselves, and will do nothing that costs them money, power, and control. Instead, they’ll GLADLY watch the people (people they depend, incidentally, for what good is power and control, if there’s no one to wield it over?) suffer at great levels in attempts to achieve their goals.
It takes a lot of poor people to make one filthy rich person.
No, China is Communist, it says so right in their name.

JFC The idiot parents are doing this to their kids. I just can’t anymore.
It’s the hovering part that surprises me.
