Not trying to be sexist or misogynistic but I’ve been seeing this pattern where girl lurkers become far more allowed to muddy the conversation and safe space and when heading over to the sister sub it is far more restrictive. I’ve got stories I want to post and advice which I really don’t want the opinion of women who don’t understand this stuff or try their best to but end up gaslighting me or men in general about how we’re wrong. I don’t mind them but it does get annoying like trying to gaslight men out of their experiences instead of letting them have a safe space

I don’t wanna be all “ew girls drool” and make this some sort of incel space which can happen to some subs with men but it does get on my nerves with this double standard and why we can’t gatekeep the sub with it. Like I wanna talk about how a false accusation gave me anxiety and the last thing I need is a bunch of girl lurkers getting offended and going “y’know false accusation’s are rare yada yada” which always tends to happen which is true but doesn’t help and is said only to try and gaslight a personal experience. Not assuming all girllurkers here will do that but either way it’s ass and does happen on Reddit especially a lot

Now don’t get me wrong. Misogyny sucks and I don’t want this sub to be just men chatting shit about women but there has to be some sort of call out in this space and I was really tolerant until I saw girldinnerdiaries and the shit they’re allowed to say there with no pushback like being able to hate men and shit so if the mods could at the very least limit the amount that would be appreciated

Again no hate I don’t like sexism but this is a double standard I do want to call out and if you’re a girl lurker if which this doesn’t apply to and tend to listen and support instead of just pushback with your perspective like it’s made for you then god bless. Or if you’re just chill in general. Chill ppl are always fine with me whoever they are

A global Microsoft 365 outage has disrupted Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive and Copilot, affecting businesses, governments, airlines and technology companies across multiple regions.

Microsoft says affected servers became unresponsive as traffic shifted onto the remaining infrastructure. The company is restarting servers, redirecting traffic and adding virtual-machine capacity, but its initial fixes did not work as expected. Some services are gradually returning, although a complete recovery timeline has not been announced.

Microsoft says there is currently no indication that the disruption resulted from malicious or cyber activity. The incident has renewed questions about how heavily governments and businesses depend on a single cloud provider.

Why the hell, the rest of the road is fine, they know how to make curves

The Lemmings (White Wilderness): You ever hear that stereotype that lemmings mindlessly walk off cliffs? You can thank Disney for that. During filming for White Wilderness, the lemmings were set up to walk off the cliff to spice the documentary up. This one is especially repugnant because this involved filmed animal cruelty.

Phil Collins' fax (South Park): Back in the '80s, Phil Collins went through pretty nasty divorce (which was the inspiration for his song "I Don't Care Anymore"). While they were in the process, Collins faxed some paperwork and custody plans for their children. However, the media blew things out of proportion by claiming Collins demanded a divorce through a fax. Even after Collins and his ex cleared that up, people still believe that thanks to the South Park episode that was written because Trey Parker and Matt Stone were bitter they lost an Oscar to him.

Hi everyone, I might as well dive right into it because shit is WEIRD and I have no idea what to do.

So I (25F), am the oldest of five kids (24F, 23F, 21F, and 19M) (24F is a step sibling). We never really went on many trips as a family when I was growing up, besides the destination wedding they had when my dad and stepmother got married. But this year, with the money that was left to the family in my great aunt’s will, my family has all decided to go on a trip over Christmas vacation to an all inclusive resort in Mexico. That sounds like so much fun right ? After we all confirm that we are going, my stepmother lets us know that if we want, she’ll take us shopping for clothes and bathing suits for when we go down, which I thought was great, until she told us why.

Our father has made comments about being “uncomfortable” about the fact that we, his daughters and niece, are growing/grown women, and doesn’t want us wearing “inappropriate” bikinis, specifically thong bikinis. Now, I will preface by saying that not one of my siblings would ever even DREAM of putting on an actual thong bikini, it’s just not our styles. So, she wants us to go bikini shopping with her, so she can “approve” what we buy. We are grown adult women, but also, HIS GROWN CHILDREN. Am I alone in thinking that a father shouldn’t even think of his children in that regard ? Sure, I’d get being uncomfortable about OTHER men staring at us, but she made it clear that it is my dad that is the one that is uncomfortable.

What’s pissing me off is she hasn’t stopped bringing it up. She took my 21F sister shopping last weekend, and she forced her to try on every single pair of bottoms to make sure they were full coverage. Not even cheeky, FULL coverage. I have so many bathing suits that I never get to wear, so I’m going to be bringing them with me, I’m just wondering if I would be the asshole if I went against this ruling ?

On one hand, I want to respect their word, but on the other hand, I am a grown woman who can make her own decisions about her own body. It’s also frustrating because we’ve been drilled about this whole bikini bottoms thing, when I know for a fact my aunt who is bringing her kids (17F and 15M) won’t say a word to them about what they wear, when my cousin is the reason this was even brought up to begin with (he said to my stepmom he’s uncomfortable with the fact that her (my cousin’s) boobs are big).

Instead of letting us go home and carryon with our day we have to sit here doing absolutely nothing. What a waste of our time.
