And it looks like Milwaukee Mythicists doesn't care about the harassment of women.

It is also of interest is that the drive from Columbus to Milwaukee is only 7 hours. Easily driveable in a single day. The extra nights on the road he is begging for are for pure promotion. Get a few free drinks. Maybe some free food. Maybe arrange for a talk as long as they are going to a pub. Do a little book signing. Sell some books.

I'll hand it to him that he does put some effort into his self promotions. And as an added bonus, since none of this is officially arranged events, it is open season on putang with his adoring fans.

She doesn't mention that it was Justice Warriors who drove the woman off with death threats.

(Death threats are a slyme-bro thing, no?)

And her nonsense about them not "getting" the joke -- HAH. They got it, they just didn't like it.

Regressives angry about a joke, taking bites out of someone's hide until they flee -- sounds really familiar.

I don't think that is true -
- 1) saying a movie sucks
- 2) being critical (if not outright rude) to someone
are both not inherently political (or right-wing) viewpoints.

It is more likely that the powers that be at twitter (and probably not the Trust & Safety Council) decided that it was a better business model to suck up to celebrities and provide them a safe space.

And so they ignored their stated commitment to free speech when they felt it would effect their bottom line.

I agree he was banned for being a dick not for politics, but I do feel that his politics made him a target.

They have discussed it a couple of times on Leo Laporte's podcast. Laporte, who doesn't do a lot of politics because he is good at his job, kinda defended Milo stating that at least Milo used his real name and the really nasty trolls don't and they just create new accounts and go about their business. Pretty much everyone else disagreed with him. Funny enough that all died down and then last week jason calacanis was on twit and during a discussion about twitter stated milo shouldn't have been banned and twitter was making a mistake playing politics. He even used the term regressive left.

That can be almost anywhere in Indiana, eastern Ohio, northern Illinois, and southern Wisconsin.

I’ll be driving from Columbus to Milwaukee to attend the debate. But I don’t have to go direct. I can go a circuitous route. So I’ll be giving those tickets to anyone who can arrange the following:

A place to crash for a night on my way to Milwaukee.
A gathering of fans or any other interested folk who’d love to hang out and chat with me about history or philosophy, at any pub of your choosing (or any house or place you prefer).

Apparently, he will give the tickets to the first four applicants who can provide a sofa bed and some groupies. Too bad he's not going through MN, as I am sure Stephanie Svan would be able to give him a warm reception.
Keep in mind, housing Carrier also includes the obligation to provide room for his girlfriend(s). And if you happen to pass out on the couch, Carrier may assume your wife is included in the package deal.

And if your wife refuses and dashes off an excuse, that makes you an abusive controlling husband/boyfriend.

Carrier should start a new initiative: Adopt a creep.

Oh I agree. I'd actually take a step further and say that it's actually the State houses that matter, and that whoever controls them will control the House because of gerrymandering.

However, I do think there's something to the idea that shaking up the presidential electoral status quo might a worthwhile way to get some change in the medium-run. I also think it's fairly safe. It's not like the Republicans are going to magically go along with her because she wins a few more states. (I think if the situation was reversed, actually, the Democrats might be more willing to capitulate if they lose a few more states than normal so maybe it doesn't work the other way).

But I do think that losing say, Georgia and Arizona means that the GOP has to fundamentally rethink their presidential level strategy. Or it might not matter at all, because they'll just think that Trump is an outlier. Probably the latter so all of that is a moot point.

Milo can't seem to decide if he's a conservative pundit or right-wing troll (sorry 'satirist') and wants to have his cake and eat it too. (Similar to Gavin McInnes).

He's quite willing to play the victim and build narratives when it suits his purposes, which is what he criticises others for doing.

There may be some truth to his being targeted for his politics - but it suits his purposes to obfusticate rather than clarify things and Twitter is running silent so who knows how much?

I do think that Twitter did themselves no favours in the way they handled him. But it's their business they can screw it up how they want.

Anyway, if you have a link to the podcast or any info as to who Leo Laporte is - don't keep it to yourself.

I don't think he learned his lesson. He just announced he is doing a remake of The Accused starring Lena Dunham in which the pinball machine rape only happened in her dreams, but the Canadian judge demands justice and has the rapists arrested and taken to an island, where Lena hunts and kills her rapists for sport.

I get it. If he just goes on a road trip like a normal person, there is no benefit to him. Instead, the whole thing becomes a BUSINESS TRIP, so he can deduct mileage, the value of top-tier hotels and the like.

I am sure he is careful to tally all of the income from his book sale table and will inform the authorities accordingly.

More than a third of female students 'have mental health problems'

One in three female students in the UK has a mental health problem, a survey suggests.

This compared with about a fifth of male undergraduates, the YouGov survey of 1,061 students found.

Overall, some 27% of the students said they had a mental health problem. This rose to 45% among lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender students.

Universities UK said institutions were working hard to develop good services that linked in with the NHS.

Of those students who said they had a mental health problem:

77% had depression
74% had anxiety

In May, statistics published by the ONS showed student suicides had risen to their highest level since numbers were first recorded in 2007.

These figures - for 2014 - showed there were 130 suicides in England and Wales among full-time students aged 18 or above. Of those, 97 deaths were for male students and 33 were females.

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.bbc.co ... ent=safari

Note that the headline is about female students while the stats show suicide among male students is three times as high.

That's because you have many SJW echo chambers in the art/entertainment business. Feig probably works with a marketing team which more or less ideologically aligned with him. They were probably convinced that the "misogynistic man-baby trolls" weren't going to affect the ticket sales, and were going to just generate more drama.

The culture of "naming and shaming", of "calling out", has created many such echo chambers in the fields where PR matters.

Obviously they thought that men could be shamed into seeing it - either directly by the marketing or indirectly by pressure from their wives & girlfriends.

That second option may work for romcoms that women actually want to see ( #NotAll ) - but not for an action-comedy which traditionally they are less interested in.

Perhaps also the tide is turning with shaming men.

I think that it is simple. Every trip he makes is a "business" trip. So any expenses on food, drink, travel, accommodation, auto depreciation all gets written of as business expenses. He does a talk or promotes his books. All business. His entire social life is a business expense.

Audience of Suicide Squad was almost half ladies and that was called a horrible misogynistic gun-fuckery of a movie. It made my heart warm to see the stats. I've seen a lot of women on my terrible Facebook feed go on about how Ghostbusters was amazing and fuck the man babies, so certainly a TYPE of woman definitely went out of their way to see it.

Oh shit, I thought I was keeping up on my recent vanity search after semi-ghosting my favourite internet lover, The SlymePit, but I missed this one until the quote, so I've been a cad to you all, not writing or calling after the good times. :shifty: You're all still my best internet place I've ever hung out in even though I've gone on to strange other pastures on alien planets.

The PC version doesn't come out until tomorrow, so a whole bunch of people have started to play before me. :cry:

However, this has meant that I've been watching a huge ton of gameplay. I'm now very prepared for things tomorrow. I have strategies planned. I've become a backseat driver watching others and yelling at the screen: "what the fuck, you idiot, don't walk away from that, there's a fucking [whatever] right there!", "omg, what the fuck's this idiot doing????", and "oh you fucking moron,you won't find your mining beam in your SHIP's inventory, go to your multi-tool's inventory you retard!!!!".

Having not been a true gamer before, as in first person shooter that I've played for more than just a couple hours in the early 90s, I was a little nervous about stuff that others might know and take for granted, but which might fuck me up. Now, I'm very confident about going in tomorrow morning. I guess I've been an old fashioned girl all along, just waiting for the right game to come along and make me fall in looooove. Oh good god, who'd have thought that would happen to a cold-hearted cunt like me!

I'm probably going to record a response video to my first gameplay. Not for sure yet, but most likely. If I do, I'll post it here.

Hey, does anyone want a planet or animal or plant named after them? I might call my first planet "The SlymePit". I guess I better keep reading up here today if I want to see any answers to that. Actually, just say "scented" somewhere, since the way I've neglected the Pit lately, I'll probably just F5 for that.

Oh, I'm feeling all mushy and sentimental like I'm saying goodbye to an old lover because I'm now getting married or something. Someone please take me out to the back of the barn and shoot me if I get any worse, ok? :P
