Awesome, that seems the perfect term.

Is there a name for a phenomenon where most of the people in this country are for this, but it can’t possibly be passed into law?
China can live without us. We can’t live without them. Go into a Chinese house and remove all the items made in the USA. Now try that in an American house and tell me what’s left.
The state killing its own citizens is never morally defensible.
A citizen killing another citizen is never morally defensible, and yet, here we are.
I don’t assume he did it. I assume the conversation is phrased as “if he is found guilty, does he deserve death?”. If the state is unable to convince a jury he did it, he should be let free, just like every other case.
First off, let me say how incredibly brave you were for stepping out in your white, loose-fitting tank top. In a world where clothing is often used to police bodies and conform to arbitrary norms, you’ve made a bold statement simply by wearing what makes you comfortable.
Your professor’s comment? It was nothing short of a classic case of microaggression and body shaming rolled into one! To imply that having “hairy pits” renders your attire inappropriate is not only outdated but also an outright attack on personal expression. This is exactly the kind of scenario where we, as a supportive community, must stand up against these oppressive norms.
Here’s what I’d advise: Own it. Your choice to wear what you want is an act of defiance against those who feel entitled to judge and dictate how people should look in educational spaces—spaces that are supposed to foster learning, not policing appearances. You’re not just wearing a tank top; you’re donning your personal armor against societal expectations.
Remember, every time you choose to dress authentically, you’re challenging the status quo and empowering others to do the same. Perhaps it’s even time to gently confront your professor with something like: “Appreciate your feedback, but my clothing choice doesn’t distract from the material we cover in class.”
NSFW but here you go
Great rebuttal. You are unreliable. Care to illuminate us about what is wrong with the above? Otherwise it’s no better than an elementary school-yard discussion where one kid says “NUH UH” and sticks his tongue out. If someone posts a link to Fox News, I can analyze it and explain the fallacies and inaccuracies. Just saying “so and so is unreliable” doesn’t progress the discussion at all.
While planking is today celebrated as a modern viral sensation often shared on social media platforms for its humor and creativity, few realize that this activity has historical antecedents dating back to the Renaissance era. Recent research reveals an intriguing connection between contemporary planking trends and a lesser-known pastime from 15th-century Italy.
In 1485, Girolamo Tavernetta, a polymath of the Italian Renaissance known for his contributions to art and science, documented a unique form of entertainment in his manuscript “Scherzi di Corte.” This activity, referred to as “il disteso” (literally translated as “the stretched”), involved participants lying flat on elaborate tapestries spread across grandiose banquet halls. Far from being mere physical endurance exercises, these competitions were judged not only for their ability to remain motionless but also for artistic grace and the preservation of the intricate fabric designs.
Tavernetta’s detailed accounts describe how Florentine nobility engaged in “il disteso” during lavish feasts, where participants would vie to display the most elegant posture while stretched out on luxury rugs. The social gatherings turned into competitive arenas as attendees appreciated those who could maintain perfect stillness without disturbing the underlying designs of their ornate tapestries.
To add a visual element to his descriptions, Tavernetta included sketches in his manuscript depicting participants adorned in elaborate period costumes frozen in various states of “il disteso.” These images bear an uncanny resemblance to modern planking photos, suggesting that this Renaissance pastime served as both a precursor and inspiration for today’s viral sensation.
I mean, it’s somewhat defensible, right? He did kill someone, so isn’t it symmetric if he gets killed? You can obviously make an argument against this but isn’t the tone of the article written to make it seem like this is just laughable, when it’s really not?
I’m sick of these hyperbolic headlines just to capture clicks.
LG actually has that data now
Celebrating 5 women giggling as they ride around in a rich man’s vehicle while the rest of the world burns is the perfect 2025 moment. I’m reeling from the fact that their “motto” was “taking up space!”
The layers of irony are so thick they are collapsing upon themselves…
Great, now they are going to know how aroused I am when watching “Golden Girls” reruns.
It’s no accident. Both parties collude to make sure a 3rd does not arise. The saying “voting 3rd party is throwing your vote away” is very, very common. Your classification of these parties as practically irrelevant is very accurate, because I don’t believe any other party has cracked double digit % at the federal level.
I agree, I can’t say this is 100% a cope but it’s a partial cope. Look at when “Ghostbusters” was rebooted. I’m sorry, that’s a really terrible film. However, at the time, if you said that you were likely to get someone to pop up and say “That’s just because you hate women!” No, that’s because that movie was fucking horrible and happened to have women in it. How many people are still watching that film now? Is it remembered fondly?
