Is an old school lathe in this context hand cranked?
Runcible
I guess what I'm saying is that this is the "civility" approach to the same worldview as mra weirdos
I was looking at that as a vodka+mousetrap combo
Yeah, I get that part. I just have been thinking more about the whole "world's most divorced man" formula and divorce jokes lately. I've had two friends go through divorces recently and have been trying to be more aware of how people talk about it and what message these jokes are sending.
The hornyposting is pretty blatant in the first tweet for this one, but I see a lot of this basically tying a person's worth to the continuation of a relationship. No interest is paid to the quality or health of the relationship (not that that would be better from rando posters for public figures) which basically just leaves the whole thing leaning into women as trophies. I don't think it's the intent per se, I just think it's implicit in the mockery.
also I think this reenforces really bad elements of our culture (i.e. this seems like an expression of toxic masculinity to me not that I have engaged in literature on this)
Are they working? No.
Will they continue? Yes.
Yeah, this even kept me from playing games I actually bought from them

"I'm voting Haley because she's not Trump" I have actually been wondering about this since his entire campaign is literally just "he's not Trump" what happens if someone else gets the nomination? I think it's reasonable to assume it would depress turnout from both parties unless it is due to something that can be pointed at as Democratic corruption like blocking Trump from the ballot, in which case I would guess it would only depress dem turnout.
Though I am not clear if this does anything for write-ins or not so I don't know if we would see our first actual spoiler candidate.
I was more picturing an infomercial it slices, it dices tone than libscold
not enough sides
