I spend more time with women on any given Tuesday than any unloved, lonely shut-in Chapo poster has in his whole fucking life. I might make jokes about women on /r/drama, but IRL I'm one of the fucking girls and fine with it.

When any of them open up to me about their experiences with harassment or assault, it is never - NEVER. FUCKING. EVER. - about a MAGA bro or a frat boy. It is always at the hands of some sensitive feminist "woke" boy.

The "frat boy rapist" thing is a myth that dangerous dudes like this are happy to perpetuate, because it takes the heat off of them, i.e. the real threats to the goddamn wimminz.

Gamers only need one statistic.

Tried to understand the drama but I’ve actually felt the sun shine on my skin so I had no idea what they were saying

Roughly, the odds of something occurring are pretty low. Getting it twice in a row is really rare, and three times is almost unheard of. A guy said it's not as bad if you only look for events with the really rare thing happening in the first place

And this got a lot of reddit mathemagicians upset.

It’s 50/50, you either get it or you don’t.
