Look up “Sabra and Shatila Incident”

There's a hundred versions of this attack in the replies as per usual every time this subject comes up. Let's unpack.

What the name actually refers to:

The Sabra character predates the Lebanese Christian militia chimpout:

Pick yo fave foid:

When men suffer social isolation, women may pay the price, too

good start subheadline

If men are in trouble, what does that mean for women?

the thinning fabric of many men's social worlds may place added strain on the women in their life

nearly two thirds of young American men report that "no one really knows me well.

More specifically, among couples in a heterosexual relationship, men lean on their romantic partner more than women do

one that suggests men's emotional infrastructure is often built on foundations that women maintain.

we call the labor that women specifically put into helping men with frayed social ties "mankeeping."

fellas is your foid mankeeping you?

addressing the inequality that women face as a result of mankeeping requires challenging rigid masculine norms that leave so many men with impoverished social ties to begin with.

And by 'destroy' I mean 'cause a nationwide blackout' and by 'monkey' I mean 'monkey'.

These Zoomer girls who make a big performative deal out of having IBS disgust me. It's very unladylike for women to speak of pooping themselves. If we want to hear crass talk we can turn to the male population for that.

My DMs are open

AITA for continuously triggering her trypophobia?

(Trypophobia is an intense and disproportionate fear or disgust for holes, bumps, or patterns that are clustered together or repetitive)

(aka r-slurred)

I (19F ) have had acne for so long that I honestly can't remember my skin without it. I used to wear a lot of concealer to cover it up, but that only made things worse. Eventually, I realized my skin was controlling my life (and draining my bank account 💀), so when I started at a new school, I decided to stop wearing makeup . My skin still isn't great, but I'm on medication, so I have some hope that it will improve.

Here's the problem: There's a girl in my class, let's call her Callie (18F ), who has trypophobia [is r-slurred]. I had no idea until we were put in a group together. The moment I spoke to her, she started crying. Naturally, I asked what was wrong, and she screamed at me that my face was triggering her trypophobia . Her friends immediately jumped in to comfort her while I just sat there, confused, wondering if I was supposed to apologize for my skin, something I obviously didn't choose to have .

When I tried to speak again, she told me to shut up and leave because I was " drawing attention to myself by talking. " I asked what she expected me to do about it, and she said I could at least wear concealer. I explained that it wasn't an option because it's expensive and just worsens my acne. Her friends glared at me and called me selfish .

That was just the first incident. Ever since, anytime I sit near Callie or have to present in front of the class, she starts dry heaving or crying (having a panic attack?) . It's disrupting lessons so much that my teacher pulled me aside and asked if I could just wear concealer for the sake of keeping the peace. She admitted it wasn't fair but said she couldn't think of another solution.

I already feel like such a freak because of my skin. I know my skin is horrid, but why am I the one expected to cater to Callie? I didn't choose to have acne any more than she chose to have trypophobia. I can't help but feel like I'm being unfairly treated here, but at the same time, I know she can't control her reaction either.

So… AITA? Should I just wear the darn concealer?

Happy Lunar New Year to the dramanauts who celebrate it. 2025 is the Year of the Snake.

I made this for @NotX (definitely not @X, formerly chiobu) even though he never actually asked for it.

The following have sparks. Which one do you like best?

Update: Slightly more than a day later, 1 has 36 votes, 2 has 15 votes, and 3 has 21 votes. I will submit 1.

Yes, I realize that you wouldn't actually hold firecrackers like that. I copied the design from something on Google because I waited too long to start drawing this and couldn't come up with a better design that wasn't too similar to the previous ones. I started it around January 24.

>Shadows is currently on par with that of Assassins Creed Odyssey in terms of its pre-order numbers. "Early previews have been positive, praising its narrative and immersive experience, with both characters playing critical roles in the game's storyline, as well as the quality and complementarity of the gameplay provided by the dual protagonist approach," Guillemot said in the most recent earnings call.

>At the time of writing, Shadows currently has around 300,000 pre-orders, said sources and Odyssey's day one player numbers were between 400-450,000; a gap of around 100-150,000 that needs to be made up in the next four weeks.

He's stepping down due to Ted Tso comparing maintainers to here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/

I honestly don't really have a QRD other than another maintainer stepped down due to what he saw was a slight by the Linux maintainers . Funny thing is the guy who set him off (Ted Tso) is the guy who caused the rust filesystem maintainer to step down as well due to a very public grilling lmao: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Rust-Linux-Maintainer-Step-Down.
