Heh. From my personal experience. Our workplace was asked to form a group of specialists to visit a seminar in USA embassy a week ago. And the group was rejected because... there were too many men (the field I work in is mostly men). And then the group was reformed from various companies to include mostly women in order to satisfy "gender equality" factor. It's not that I'm very offended by losing the possibility to have a cup of good american coffee tomorrow morning, but it's an interesting step.

Liverpool FC to 'take action' against fan who posted picture of two Muslim men praying at Anfield during half-time and labelled it a 'disgrace'

And not only that but: "Campaigners have called for football clubs to install prayer rooms so Muslim fans can pray in peace and avoid the possibility of anti-Islamic abuse."

QuoteThe American People is likely to rankle with historians as there is no evidence many of historical figures were gay.

Quote"It may look like fiction, but to me, it's not,"

QuoteWhether it is absolutely accurate or not, The American People speaks to a need across gay and straight communities to revise historical accounts from which sexual orientation was absent.
(Emphasis mine).

Good idea! And about time at that.

4:8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

(wasn't sure where to place the emphasis, and on second thought no revision needed)
Someone weaker than you should beat you and brag
And take you for a drag

QuoteThe phrase "trigger warning" may itself be triggering to some trauma survivors.

EDIT - bit of a treasure trove of made-up bullshit, that site. For example -
QuoteThe term grunch means the sensation a woman has when she was for a time free of conscious awareness of the male gaze and did not feel othered, but is then reminded in some way that she is a woman first and a geek (or colleague, or writer, etc) a distant second. - "Grunch" (and the verb "grunched") appear to have been coined by Dorothea Salo in 2002, who also used "grunchy" as an adjective for discussions about sexism. A woman can feel a grunch happening when she walks into a "glass door".

At this rate we'll all be talking Newspeak by the end of the year.

I only listened to this song for a minute this morning but the god damn chorus keeps going round my head. I can't even begin to describe how amazingly terrible this is.

Levas

One of the most difficult songs to listen to.

My inital reaction is: This must be a joke! No one can be this cheesy and utmost stupid. Video is awful, music is awful, lyrics is full of cliches, customes is awful, coregraphy is awful, the music video''s overstatements are awful, the people are awful - damn hippies! - and when that rasta glide set in I get enraged! HATE!

Edit: Had to kill the music at 0:49.
