Y'all absolutely need to watch the linked fox news segment where the anchor tries to claim she knows Minnesota well, especially Milwaukee, and she sees that it has changed.

Meanwhile, Milwaukee is in Wisconsin.

Everyone who shaves, regardless of gender and razor type, should have a styptic pencil. It stops bleeding like magic.

Beyond that, shaving with a safety razor is different because you're never supposed to apply pressure - idk if that's something you were doing.

Like how trump, now realizing he's the old fart in the room, is claiming that Biden isn't old now?

Right?

One time I had some friends over, one of the gals suddenly got very anxious, and privately asked if I had tampons in the house. Luckily an ex had left a box, and seeing the relief was incredible. If helping others in that way gets him the nickname Tampon Tim, I'm celebrating that shit.

The ones who think it's a pejorative are the ones that refuse to buy feminine products for their partners because they're so "manly".

Idk about you but I've literally never heard of the guy before.

What I've heard suggested is he has a few pensions from his time in the military, and as a teacher.

Ah yes, free tampons in schools, feeding kids, classic high school bully characterization.

Fwiw, I don't think it's about social conformity in the usual sense. It's about social conformity in the sense that the man's Christmas/easter greetings wish for his opponents to rot in hell. That's not just "not confirming to societal norms". That's basically equivalent to being the guy preaching through a microphone that everyone's going to hell.

Neuro-atypical folks are not getting caught in these cross hairs unless they also act as hateful.

I'm reacting to the comment that I replied to, not the post you posted lol.

Your comment was decrying "harassment" of .ml staying up while a formal accusation of .world being taken down.

Do you really not see a difference between this meme and your accusation?

It seems to me a very reasonable explanation of why the post was removed. Your only response was "well then why am I banned from these communities?", and you were promptly unbanned with the only ask that you be civil.

I think you're describing the difference between criticism in the form of characterizing memes and criticism in the form of a formal accusation.

EDIT: also, out of curiosity, do you think if this was posted to .ml it would stay up?
