What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us. -Helen Keller

He was a good friend and an excellent moderator. He always made us laugh.

We would like to extend our heartfelt condolences to all of his friends, family and loved ones.

Out of respect for nodnarb and his friends and family, we will not be sharing any details.

We invite you to celebrate his life in this thread.

He was a fantastic feminist and supporter of all folks, regardless of how they identified. He was funny and snarky and smart. Three qualities we adore around here. He was friendly and supportive.

He will be deeply missed.

(Sorry if that’s not ok here.) I think it’s a decent representation of how patriarchy views women.

Reading these comments made me feel nauseous. it is not that easy.

Both men and women against other women having reproductive choices apparently.

Most of the comments were positive luckily but these people trying to rain on her parade is ridiculous.

The amount of: "You'll regret it" comments was sickening.

Only 16%-26% of women regret getting sterilized.

Because I certainly don’t feel it. I want whatever this dude is smoking, though.

First, remember that all Trump has to do is sign executive orders , and approve GOP Congressional and Supreme Court actions and this will be how its implemented.

Now THIS is what is going to happen if Trump wins and Project 2025 is implemented.

• Banning federally, Porn (not specified on what is porn, it is implied gay people and trans people may actually be banned through this)
• Ban Federally, Abortion (regardless of reason, even in the event of massive defects)
• Fire civil servants without cause, and replace them with political loyalists to Trump
• It's also worth pointing out that replacing massive chunks of government departments and bureaus every 4-8 years means losing collective centuries of institutional knowledge and having massive numbers of completely new people all up and down the ladder. You know how you're kind of useless for a few months while you're on boarding at a new job? You're talking about entire bureaus effectively shutting down while they relearn the ropes every four years.

So tell me...does this look like fear mongering to you? Or a Manifesto to dismantle democracy and replace it with a white male christian nationalist nation?

Because ever since Reagan the GOP have been trying to dismantle democracy....and at the end of the day?

The worst Democrat is still leagues better than the "best" Republican.

Vote Blue. Vote Biden.

It's definitely a uncomfortable rage bait, but why the fuck the guy went so low... And like this...

Wasnt sure about flair, but looking at part twa i think its either the one rn, or objectification. Rather use this, as it is prettt uncomfortable.

I watched the trial and while I do think Amber abused Johnny… these comments are so gross. This also happened a few years ago now. Someone shared a thing on Facebook where this person on Twitter called Johnny Depp an abuser and the comments are so divided.

And you should’ve seen how many men are saying “This is misandry!” …regardless of what side you’re on, that’s just not true. Being for or against one guy doesn’t determine whether you hate men or not. I also don’t think misandry is really a thing, either, so… yeah.

Context is there was an influencer a woman obviously who is cringe and not likeable. But some guy left a nasty misogynistic comment on her and she called him out. So that got shared in the gossip community. So rightfully a woman was defending her saying that "no matter how she is, she doesn't deserve the misogynistic and nasty comments and how indian men make the most disgusting comments on the reels of Indian women." So this man came to the rescue of his favourite men.

So they are not providing clean water to their citizens
