My UO is that this is the superior James Stewart chrismas movie.

[Brooke Brandtjen @BrookeBrandtjen]

“You’ve Got Mail” is already a remake of “Shop Around the Corner,” one of the most criminally underrated movies from Hollywood’s Golden Age

[Christina @forestofcake]

No it's not a power. It's the reason child bride marriage and FGM exists. It's the reason sex trafficking exists. It's the reason women were denied basic human rights for most of history in every civilization on earth.

It the root of why we are opressed, not any kind of power.

[Murray Hill Guy @MurrayHillGuy1]

Women are the most powerful force on planet Earth.

They’re the backbone of the entire economy and defeat even the strongest of men.

Men hit the gym, looksmax, get hair transplants, chase six-figure salaries, buy expensive cars, and build entire empires just to attract beautiful women.

Even 60-year-old billionaires like Jensen Huang, with unlimited money, power, and status, aren’t immune to the desire for women.

Men have conquered nations, built trillion-dollar companies, and changed the course of human history.

And at the end of the day, so much of it comes back to women.

The male desire for women is the most powerful motivator in human history.

Women are undefeated.

I am absolutely saving massive fat bastard winter dinner for future usage.

[Ben Hair @Viral_Ben]

Yanks have their massive fat bastard winter dinner in November which probably dilutes Xmas a bit for them. A shame really. As a nation of porksmen they could probably elevate the pig in blanket to insane, 2,000 calorie proportions

@OutOfOuts @Its_Dicky_Yall Thanks, I couldn't remember the title.

[Christina @forestofcake]

Things I have learnt today.
Boys books "don't count" as boys books if:

The lead is black.
The lead is gay.
The lead wants to be a therapist when he grows up.
The book explores a relationship between father & son (this counts as gay)
There is a girl in it.
The girl does

Remember that one abolitionist who said about murderers that the victims family can decide if you will be their indentured servant forever as penance or they can choose to drown you in a river?

Respect that they shared this crazy opinion and didn't dodge.

[marcy so in love 📘 @nawiosne]

sometimes i will see someone asking "what about murderers? what about rapists? what about child abusers?" and they get an answer that implies these are fundamentally bad faith questions when they're the most reasonable questions one can have and it's like okay.

[Christina @forestofcake]

@Alicei_inPains Yeah, you can basically just eat boiled rice and carrots and that's it with reflux.

aprender italiano me ha hecho aprender a vivir en el presente porque no sé conjugar en otro tiempo

[Christina @forestofcake]

I don't understand everyone saying this, they both look around 60. I looked it up and they are indeed both around 60.
There is such an insane double standard, she doesn't look older or worse than him, she just looks like she hasn't had tons of plastic surgery.

[Lia the Trader 👸💸 @Liathetrader]

Not excusing infidelity, but she looks like his mom. She isn't even trying to look somewhat sexy. With all her money.

And then everyone is surprised.

He is still pretty charming in his age.

Women need to keep themselves sexy for their men, otherwise this happens!

Just my opinion. And don't judge me but I'm Slavic.

We're extremely feminine and sexy, and no matter what age, we do our best!

[Christina @forestofcake]

@Snekcoinr @cairoasmith That's a pineapple allergy.

[Christina @forestofcake]

@spaceangelvoice I can't remember, google says it's a thing people do but doesn't work.

[Christina @forestofcake]

As a child I was led to believe by cartoons that getting sprayed by a skunk was one of life's great problems.
Yet I have never even seen a skunk. Curious.

[Christina @forestofcake]

This is terrible, now the squirrel has tasted Tunnocks but doesn't understand the concept of money to buy tea cakes.

[Paper Parrot @paperparrot_]

A squirrel in Stirling found a Tunnock's Caramel Wafer on the wet pavement and sat down to eat it like it was his.

He looks like he'll survive the winter nicely,

The smart phone killed the last bits of mystery in the world.

Can't be a crazy guy making up shit anymore, if it happened you would have filmed it and posted it on Instagram.

[Moongazer @joeybeastmarket]

When I was a kid there was a pretty regular stream of information regarding spontaneous human combustion and then it never happened to anyone ever

[Christina @forestofcake]

@Etanarachel That doesn't change the adults involved being predators.

[Christina @forestofcake]

@medievalescurel They've never been able to find what is causing the problem and eventually agreed it was probably my long term chronic illness, which there is no treatment for unfortunately. A lot of people with it end up with feeding tubes but I'm hoping it won't get to that.

[Christina @forestofcake]

Well it must be bad, a doctor actually came to my house 😱
The want to admit me for malnutrition, I agreed but I'm worried, hospital is such a bad environment for me and he made it sound like it would be a long stay ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

[Christina @forestofcake]

Lost even more weight. Wondering at what point my doctors are going to think a feeding tube is a good idea, how long do they leave you like this.

Any improvement I was having is shot, all meds have stopped working, lost everything I gained and then some.

[Christina @forestofcake]

@Its_Dicky_Yall Apparently there was a fantasy book that had this plot 🤷‍♀️

[Christina @forestofcake]

Truly, no one has never known suffering like this.

[Phaethon's Chariot Mechanic @Panagio3309288]

Sister, the main property of a boys book is that "boys shouldn't like it." If they do, it is a disaster: every time a boy smiles a girl somewhere in the world cries (it isn't mine; I get wisdom from my yoga instructor).

And why should they like it? Little monsters, incels to be, perpetrators of oppression; why should we let them like anything? Is this how we'll build a better world? Is this what George Floyd died for?

No sisters. As Stalin once said, "don't let your guard down". Stay vigilant. Scrutinise every page of every book for paragraphs, sentences, a mere word, which may be liked by a boy and excise it diligently. Don't be lukewarm in your duty and don't fall for any of the tricks of the enemy:

They say boys want to read adventures; I say they want to be trained to throw women to Gilead. They say boys want exciting stories; I say this so called "excitement" is a precursor to rape. They say boys don't like romance; I say only the ones who haven't been castrated yet. They say boys don't want to be preached; I say they want to make an army of Nazis.

Sister, we have done a good job so far. We shouldn't let it go down the drain. Remember: every book that targets boys is a book stolen from girls. Are we going to allow this?

[Christina @forestofcake]

@Noblock88155216 @hilarym99 Women/girls read pretty much everything so you're out of luck.

[Christina @forestofcake]

Actually my final thought is all new publications are slop and you should be H.G. Wells maxxing instead.

[Christina @forestofcake]

One last thought about the reading discourse, remember when the The Norton Anthology of Theory and Criticism came out with 90 men and 8 women and women wanted greater representation? And men reacted very badly saying they were being oppressed and erased from history.

[Christina @forestofcake]

And the tears went on for years and years? Political correctness gone mad, erasing great books for ones that weren't as good for identity politics etc. etc.

DEI is good when about me, but bad when it is about anyone else.
