Feel like they should be focused on Call of Duty.

After PETA called out Pete Davidson for buying a dog for his mother from a pet store instead of adopting one from a shelter, the “Saturday Night Live” alum left one of its execs a furious, profanity-ridden voicemail, for which he later apologized.

“Thank you so much for making comments publicly that I didn’t adopt a dog,” Davidson said to Daphna Nachminovitch, PETA’s Senior VP of Cruelty Investigations, in a voicemail on Monday, as heard in audio shared by TMZ.

“I just want to let you know I’m severely allergic to dogs, so I have to get a specific breed,” he added. “I’m only not allergic to cavapoos, and those types of dogs. And my mom’s f--king dog, who’s two years old, died a week prior, and we’re all so sad. So I had to get a specific dog.”

And then Davidson unleashed an explicit tirade on Nachminovitch, who had previously issued a statement to TMZ about his dog purchase.

“So why don’t do your research before you f--king create news stories for people, because you’re a boring, tired [expletive],” he said. “F--k you, and s--k my dick.”

In a statement about Davidson’s voicemail, PETA said, “If Pete had done his research, he would know that there’s no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog, that at least a quarter of dogs in shelters are purebreds, and that Petfinder has listings for homeless dogs of every breed under the sun, including the one he purchased.”

how do you stan a cause - animal rights - that is so righteous and good that literally anyone will want to agree with you, and still manage to be so unlikeable in every single action you take that noone in their right mind wants anything to do with you?

This is how you lose elections against pure scumbags like Trump and the rest of the Maga idiots.

The claim that teachers should use they/them permanently seemed a little too absurd and looks like it is

Basically they're supposed to use they/them until the kids announce their pronouns. Might still be overkill but less insane

I had a acquaintance come out recently and say they are non-binary. Or gender fluid? Or maybe trans. 

So, because I don't actually want to misgender people I asked what pronouns I should use. I got a reply that was two paragraphs and didn't even answer the question. 

So I guess they/them.  I just wish they would have it more sorted out before they proclaim it to everybody. I mean if you haven't figured it out yet maybe you didn't need to make a public statement about it? I don't know. 

I really don't want to be an asshole but I'm an old gen X'er and think... who really cares about how masculine or feminine you feel? I mean as humans don't we all question these things? Seems like such a stupid thing to turn into something so big now we're determining public policy over this.

Non-binary is really one of those confusing things. When I grew up feminism declared that any gender can do anything and still be no less valid. A dude can wear a dress, a woman can have a shaved head etc. all without now being less of a man or a woman. Many drag queens for example are explicitly not trans. But now people declare that they actually are less of a man or woman because of their interests or appearance and are now something in between, and, to me, this just seems impossible to mix with those prior believes.

The entire ideology is fucked and backwards. I can't for the life of me fathom while otherwise smart people entertain this nonsense at all. But then, we have the entire history of Marxism/communism/etc. so I guess I should stop being flabbergasted just because it's a new(ish) redressing of reactionary thinking.

They just replaced their Hammers and Sickles with a rainbow and the 'nuclear winter' with Climate Apocalypse.

The commie that came up with the idea to hold capitalism and not biology/survival responsible for gender roles is a genius.

That wasn't really intentional it was just the result of the answer to everything in critical studies always being capitalism even as nobody defines what this is supposed to mean. So when womens studies or gender studies or whatever you want to call it spun out of that it just kept that lineage along.

It's always been ironic because all these people are obsessed with locating power and systems and violence but completely pass over, excuse and encourage the real source of every problem in history: the state.

To be honest with you, a slave auction in NYC in 2023 is one of the last things I'd try to rob.

"This course correction isn't enough compared to the harm it has done"

Harm? What fucking harm?
