  • That’s the self-reported number in a single shitty survey from the 1980s that counted a relationship as having “domestic violence” if either spouse (the cop or their partner) raised their voice once at the other in the past 6 months.

    There are very good reasons this figure has never been replicated, when using a definition of “domestic violence” that actually makes sense.

    Incessantly quoting one extremely flawed ~40-year old survey is just telling on yourself about where facts and your preferred narrative are prioritized relative to each other.

    A lot of the gay elders i know are tired of history being changed when they were actually there. Unfortunately the biggest myth is that [Marsha P. Johnson] started the stonewall riot and kicked off the lgbt movement.

    But in fact she wasn’t even there when it started. She also referred to herself as a drag queen/transvestite… not trangender. Sylvia Rivera is the one who is trans not mpj.

    If anything it was likely a big butch lesbian who started it.


    There wasnt even a brick that started the riots. A lot was happening at once, but it most like started when cops began harassing Butch Lesbian Stormè DeLarverie and someone, no one is sure who, stepped in to her defense. Violence broke out and next thing we know, we have the stonewall riots. Maybe bricks were thrown with Molotovs, but no one can be credited with doing anything first except maybe DeLarverie asking for help.










  • Honey… you first.

    Established yourself as being deeply insufferable impressively quickly. Few traits more immediately obnoxious than this flavor of ‘sassy condescension’. It’s not unique, and it’s not clever. You just sound whiny.

    That goes doubly when it’s the lead-in to a protracted “nuh uh, that’s you” fueled by a litany of ignorant stereotypes. You sound like the kind of person who’d react to someone saying they didn’t like your cooking by telling them that they can’t complain because they aren’t a Michelin restaurant chef.

    unreasonable hatred of an animal that’s popular among POC.

    ???

    Nobody was talking about POC, lmao, are you trying to accuse pitbull awareness of being racism? Never read a story about a POC viciously attacking a loving family member out of nowhere for no apparent reason. Human beings don’t do that. But pitbulls do.

    I personally knew an older woman in the neighborhood who was the sweetest person in the world, lived by herself with her dog after her husband died, and her pitbull hospitalized her with a completely unprovoked random attack while she was walking it on my block. And I witnessed that ‘windshield incident’ myself, different animal, there is no other breed that is so aggressive/tenacious that it’ll start headbutting a windshield to get at a squirrel running around in front of the car, much less keep doing it even after it’s gotten its face all cut up from the windshield cracking. That is insane behavior.

    There’s nothing unreasonable about not wanting those living ticking time bombs around. Again, you will NEVER find an image of golden labs eating littermates down to the head. Denying the existence of breed-specific traits is just delusional.
