i didn't make it, but my read on it was as a critique of male-gendered products go over the top injecting "masculinity" into their branding. they do mention the pink tax ("20% cheaper for no reason!"), i don't know that reactionaries would include something like that. Either way, I agree wholeheartedly that tampons for men who need them should be normalized.
it clicked pretty quickly when i finally went and looked it up online, and played a bit with a standalone browser version i found. the in game explanation just isn't very good.
Terrific advice in this thread, definitely start on flat ground (hell i started off practicing ollies in the grass) and wear helmet/pads (some people might give you shit about these; those people are idiots), BUT:
You absolutely will eat shit from time to time, and you have to accept this and be ready for it. I must have tumbled down the side of the bowl 50 times before I finally dropped in successfully, and it was worth every scrape and bruise.
Someone else said "learn to fall." I'll go one further and say if you have the means to do so then take a judo or parkour class - they will teach you how to minimize injury when you hit the ground.
Also, it's not a terrible idea to walk an area before you skate it, and note large cracks/gaps in the sidewalk, scattered bits of gravel, etc. so it isn't a suprise when/if you run over them.
it's because (in the US at least) the "Skinhead" subculture has been colonized by neo-nazis to such an extent that they're basically synonymous. also falling back on pedantries like "I'm not a nazi because I'm not a member of the german national socialist party" is how nazis try to deflect people calling them out.
edit: just realized you said it was /r/bald... very strange that people on /r/bald would start calling someone a nazi for having a shaved head. i think you got called a nazi for something else, and the content of this comment makes me think they were right.
e2: account is 10 days old, refers to women as "females", and likes to whine about anti-white racism. tag appropriately
e3: a reddit account with the same username exists, but they've had a bot overwrite their comment history with gibberish. can't find shit from them posted to /r/bald, so it looks like that's just an out and out lie. why would you tell on yourself this hard?
"MLK envisioned a post-racism society in a speech once and I don't know a single other thing about him, so we should ignore racism entirely and never, ever work to counter it"
I recently got a Sony prs 600 e reader from 2009. The battery is at the end of its life (It lasts about 3 days with heavy reading, and a couple weeks without reading).

i grew up in a rural area where nascar is very popular (i personally never cared for it or paid much attention) and never understood the seemingly irrational hatred some people seemed to have for mr earnheardt, but that one quote makes it all make sense. thanks for clearing that up for me.
right? this is the same type of brain-dead anti-intellectualist strawmanning that you see going around "mom groups" and antivaxx circles, just slightly tweaked. people are reading in their own nuanced criticisms (and those definitely need to be heard) but the meme itself is just "doctor bad".
Because it's extremely relevant in American culture. Every culture really, we're just somewhat ahead on not lying to ourselves about it.
What the fuck is wrong with Americans and how did they become so astonishingly self flagellating.
Nothing and we're not, you're an irate ignoramus with a chip on your shoulder having an imaginary dick measuring contest because you're super duper sensitive about race.
Just on the insecure posture of this tweet, I’m prepared to bet cold hard cash that he asked her for clarity or something with a informational challenge “but does x not come from y?” Or whatever and she manufactured his reasoning and the rest to feel good. She doesn’t seem to know what et al means either.
He was literally telling her to go read her own work. The "et al" part is very fucking clearly taking the piss, do they not have humor over there in Stuckupistan? Or are your panties always in too much of a twist about basic ass descriptors to have any kind of humor about literally anything?
E: guy's post history is chock full of dogshit-tier takes with a thin veneer of leftism and a big heap of good ol' fashioned xenophobia.
ITT people baww at the mere mention of race and gender, and proceed to behave as if the problem is other people being too sensitive about race and gender.
oh now your other comment makes sense, you think "reverse racism" is real and you don't like people calling you out on complete bullshit like "Should there be a black woman asking the question, this wouldn’t be mentioned". fuck you, your performative respectability games, and your shithead nazi kin.
only white men can read an anecdote about a woman being tired of having her own field mansplained to her, and turn it into "...and that's why this is bigoted against me, actually". Holy fucking shit dude.
the part where logging in to a computer remotely is apparently as good as visiting a place in person fucking sent me. this is what being online 24/7 does to a person.
agreed, and it's one i'm perfectly comfortable making, because I've left a bar thinking "wow that was fun i had a good time" exactly zero times, and "jesus h fuckin christ where do they get off charging so much for that swill in this noisy dump". bars are awful as social spaces and need to die.
plenty of context to put that together chief, check your comment and the meme you posted it under and... look do really i need to spoonfeed you the very basic line of logic happening there? but if you treat meme comments like serious discussion then i see why you're at the bar and not a party

i can't decide if it's sadder that you're this triggered or that you're trying to hide it behind photos of tourism sites and vague concerns about a culture you clearly didn't have time to appreciate yourself.
