It was a major plot point on one of the seasons of The Sopranos. Junior ordered a hit on Tony Soprano after Tony found out that Junior ate pussy and teased him for it.

Of all the notions that exist around hypermasculinity, this one is the weirdest.

I googled the author, he’s a Tech Bro pretending to be a media critic. Shame on The Guardian for publishing this moronic clickbait guff.

I would say the guy clearly doesn’t understand the most basic concepts of fiction, except I suspect he probably does but is ignoring them in order to push his agenda.

Thank you.

“I don’t have to know CS201 Data Structures and Algorithms to do my job”, says a thousand D-tier coders online, whose code is costing their employers a small fortune in unnecessary cloud compute bills because they just blindly imported a ton of python libraries and went with the least suitable data structures and algorithms for the task at hand, because that’s what the defaults were for that library. “It fulfils all the requirements from the client perfectly, bow to my experience and skill in delivering customer value”.

It’s classic Dunning-Kruger, incompetent people who are too incompetent to know they’re incompetent.

Bonus points when they cite the fact that they were involved with a project that cost a hundred million dollars, as “proof” that they’re a world-class expert, when it probably would have been a ten million dollar project with an actually competent engineer…

Imagine sucking so bad it makes the news.

That was the opposite of nuance. It was pedantry that deliberately missed the point.

One of my friends is married to a Chinese woman only two years his junior, but because she, like most Asian women, looks a lot younger than her European contemporaries he still gets lots of dirty looks and untoward comments from judgy fucks who think it’s any of their fucking business.

Sod 'em.

Also, screw it, #79 should be Aurium.

You’d really be fucking Spandau Ballet over with that one.

Or, here’s a crazy idea, the US could start meeting the basic safety and animal welfare standards that the entirety of Europe long ago decided was the basic minimum required for something to be suitable for human consumption.

Or it’s rendered at 1080 and upscaled…

When an influential group of powerful people make hate speech a part of their standard rhetoric, is EXACTLY when you MUST block it on your platform, not a signal that it’s time to start letting it slide, you fucking pricks.

If you’re talking about animals it doesn’t matter.

Not even that it doesn’t matter, it’s almost entirely the point. The reason why using ‘females’ as a noun to refer to women is dehumanizing is because it’s a noun we use for animals.

Bees live less than two months, so if only 80% of bees died in the last 8 months that would suggest a sharp recent population increase. And even if you take it as read that it means bees dying and not being replaced, 8 months is still a terrible timeframe to use because it’s literally saying “there are 80% fewer bees now, at the tail end of winter, than there were at the height of bee season”.

I’m not saying there isn’t a bee crisis, just that this factoid is very badly worded.

I’ve been paying for Office365 home for years. Recently I started a business and signed up for 365 Business for the company email address.

Outlook stopped working, because the 365 Business account - which I specifically signed up in order to do email - doesn’t include local Outlook, and my existing home-licensed one throws a hissy fit if I try connecting it to my business account.

Microsoft sucks.
