Real butthurt about this one.

Made friends while rockclimbing earlier this year, good group of guys, sans one that gets a little too close, goes out of their way to do the "gay ironically" bit, starts singling out my girlfriend to be friendly toward. I'm not r-slurred, she is apparently.

She's like "can you believe that xxx wants me to go to the gym with him and help him approach a crush, I thought he was gay!" and other things that remind me why women are underdiagnosed for autism.

Anyway, after telling her its obvious he likes her and I don't think he's the type to respect boundaries, she keeps taking him at face value, and he asks her last night if she wants to frick the next time she works from home. She tells me I was right about him and said I could look through the messages if I wanted, like I need confirmation that men shoot their shot when they see an opening.

Reach out to the guy personally, he avoids my call, obviously. Post in a shared chat later that day asking if folks are downtown, he calls me a cute twink for using a group chat he's in "after he tried banging my gf" and he leaves the chat before I can reply.

Social dynamics at play are 1) he's been in this friend group since high school and we're all in our 30s 2) I've hung out with these guys a couple times over the past few months, since I had to stop working out for a bit after breaking my leg this year. I'm 90% sure I'm not gonna hear from these dudes again because the potential drama's too r-slurred. Lose no sleep over the ugly dude that thought he was a threat, but the other guys were chill and its hard not to blame my girlfriend for being r-slurred.

I don't know how women past the age of 20 can't activate that pattern recognition area of their brain to figure out that guys will say whatever sets them up to get in their pants. Having to comfort her this morning after she embarrassed me with this was the most emasculating shit I've had to deal with from a partner.

"I'm going to try it for the first time, do you have any reviews?"

"I looked at the list (a list of foreign men that members pass around) and it was the kid's dad."

"Is your peepee big?"

"Seongnam Pilot ○○○ Knowing Desi (Member Who Uses Dating App)?"

"I'm African and I'm not good at (s*x). The size was just like that."

The country's largest women-only community with 844,000 members has been embroiled in a controversy over the "women's version of the Nth room."

The 'Nth Room Incident', which broke out in February 2019, refers to a case of digital s*x crimes in which illegal pornography was created, traded, and distributed through a group chat room opened on Telegram. The victim was a woman and the perpetrator was a man. In the women's community, similar information is circulating, with only the genders of the victims and perpetrators reversed.

Community members were sharing detailed information about men they had met on dating apps that matched them with foreign men in the café, so-called "reviews."

Among them were minors. They post real photos of various foreign men and exchange information by obscenely mentioning the other person's appearance and genitals, such as "I have to do ○○", "I see ○○", and "I have seen this ○○○".

The so-called "U.S. Army Men Big Data Tank Count" list they shared in the café contained three pages of detailed information about U.S. soldiers. One member who seems to have taken the lead in making the list said, "I'm going to make it like an encyclopedia." There was also a "list of foreign men who use dating apps" shared among community members.

Attorney Kim Seung-hwan of GB Law Firm said, "Their actions may constitute a violation of the Information and Communications Network Act in that they are defamatory, and unauthorized disclosure of personal information may be punishable if it is done continuously or repeatedly under the Stalking Punishment Act."

According to the current law, a person who publicly discloses facts through an information and communication network for the purpose of slandering a person and defames another person shall be punished with imprisonment for not more than three years or a fine of not more than 30 million won, and a person who defames a person with false facts shall be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than seven years, suspension of qualification (occupational group) for not more than 10 years, or a fine of not more than 50 million won. A person who commits the crime of stalking shall be sentenced to up to three years in prison or fined not more than 30 million won.

Recently, the community took the lead in opposing the 2024 KXF The Fashion Festival, saying that it was an event that sexualized women. They called KXF a "prostitution expo" and joined a petition asking the local government to stop the event where KXF was scheduled to be held. Externally, while criticizing the sexual commodification of women, they point out that degrading men as sexual objects among themselves is not a double standard.

Community members opposed the KXF, saying, "It means not to do it in Korea at all. "Understand", "It's disgusting to look for other places", "I'm tired of it", "I'm suspicious why you can't do that", and "Dirty things". KXF, which features Japanese adult video (AV) actors, was eventually canceled after being "rejected by local governments and women's groups."

The sexual harassment approach of female community members towards foreigners also poses a risk of racism. In this community, foreign men are often referred to as objects of depersonalized sexual desire and consumption.

Koo Jeong-woo, a professor of sociology at Sungkyunkwan University, said, "There is a stereotype that men are the perpetrators and women are the victims of the so-called 'Nth room,' but this is an example that shows that women can be perpetrators at any time." He added, "Whether you are a man or a woman, you need to look at yourself to make sure that you are not participating in these sexual crimes."

Wally is a famous "emotional support alligator" owned by Joie Henney, A Pennsylvania man who made the news when he and his pet were denied entrance to watch the Philadelphia Phillies take on the Pittsburgh Pirates in Major League Baseball in September 2023. He was also used as a visual reference for the alligator in the tv series Loki,

From the post on /r/marvelstudios.

>Hi everyone! I hope this post is allowed, I apologize if not - we are just desperate for help!!!

As a lot of you may know, the visual reference for Alligator Loki was Wally The Emotional Support Alligator! He is a very beloved companion to his owner, and has had a tremendous impact on the lives of so many!!

Unfortunately, Wally was kidnapped from his enclosure while on vacation with his person in Georgia. It is believed that an individual broke into his enclosure, kidnapped Wally, and placed him on another persons front yard. That person then called to report an alligator and a tracker was dispatched to remove it. The tracker stated he released Wally into a swamp with over 20 other alligators and said there was “little to no hope of finding Wally”. This is devastating and obviously extremely worrisome as Wally is domesticated and often enjoys Cheetos as part of his meals.

The tracker has been reluctant to provide additional information and seemingly has changed their story a few times. This is all really devastating for his owner and lifelong companion, Joie. It also is certainly traumatizing for Wally, who is now has had everything he's ever known ripped away from him. Both Wally and Joie deserve to be reunited!!!

I am posting here in hopes of bringing more attention to Wally's plight. The hope is that Wally's story will gain traction and put pressure on this involved to come forward and tell the truth!!!

For more information, please check out Wally's Facebook page or his TikTok account!!! There have been some outlets covering the story, but nothing that has driven the perpetrator, tracker, or Georgia DNR to be responsive or helpful in this dire search. If you are willing, please take a moment to spread the word or head over to Wally's Facebook page to help get involved! Thank you so much!!!!

According to this comment, Wally is Dead and the culprit is most likely the tracker himself.

She's still trying to recover from a bad breakup so I'm trying to be patient with her. She definitely has autism but clearly it's not the cool high-speed/low-drag type like I have.

Any body of academic thought whose paradigmatic communication medium is video rather than text is prima facie suspect. Might you please link a written statement of the salient position(s) of any one of these gentlemen?

-

I think it's pretty elitist to judge the quality of a content via whether it's in a book/journal or not. In fact, the recent wave of scientific fraud discovery shows that one can hide data manipulation pretty effectively in an academic journal. I'd much rather scientists spend their time making eli5 videos.

-

Just curious, why do you write like that? Reminds when I was 11 and wanted to sound smarter on the internet.

-

My reply is an attempt to address the original comment with precision. To diagram its intended meaning:

alternative theories of consciousness

"Any body of academic thought" [I accede the scientific legitimacy of the domain of discourse, rather than dismissing it.]

know where to go to find well-argued positions on the topic.

"whose paradigmatic communication medium" [This is the beginning of my challenge to the Original Commenter, by granting the information provided authoritative status, which they perhaps cannot fully defend.]

On YouTube you can find plenty of discussions

"is video rather than text"

it's particularly important to explore these discussions as dispassionately as possible if you regard materialism as the only theory of mind that has any scientific credibility or validity.

"is prima facie suspect" [The Original Commenter has asserted that discourse and engagement are important, yet provided only time consuming, low signal-to-noise sources of information.]

As Christopher Hitchens reminds us in his legendary oration on John Stuart Mill and free speech [2]

"Might you please link a written statement of the salient position(s) of any one of these gentlemen?" [The only written citations are 1) generic and 2) ancillary to the core topic. I invite the Original Commenter to further his argument more substantively, without demanding exhaustive citations.]

-

OK, let me rewrite it:

Any body of academic thought whose paradigmatic communication medium is video rather than text is prima facie suspect. Might you please link a written statement of the salient position(s) of any one of these gentlemen?

Academic content is usually in text, not video. Do you have links to written work from them?

Shorter and the exact same meaning. Also doesn't sound like you've been perusing your thesaurus all day.

-

No, the second approach's meaning is more obtuse. What does "usually" mean? Are there acceptable alternatives? If content is in an alternative mode of communication, is it acceptable?

These vagaries permitted in your revision are clear and inherent in the original commenter's motion. Therefore, I submit your adjudication of "shorter and the exact same meaning" is woefully superficial in it's drive for simplicity, to the point there is no thought left that is clear in the original garden. Further, exact and technical communication is what separates Hacker News commenting from the hordes of subreddits that thrive on imprecise babble.

-

At minimum, this does not capture that I _am_ challenging the Original Commenter ("prima facie suspect") to more rigorously defend his position, but doing so respectfully. "One salient" written source is a carefully chosen framing: the OC cannot meet it by replying with support peripheral or meta to the main argument, but neither can he dismiss my request as burdensome, demanding multiple links.

The proposed revision suffers from its terseness, losing both nuance and completeness.

-

Communication is about being understood. Not about crafting the perfect sentence. Even if you craft the perfect sentence, that will be the perfect sentence _for you_, and it might be completely lost on many people, some perhaps even more intelligent than you.

The subtext of "Academic content is usually in text, not video" is "I don't trust this because it's in video, not text". Now if you say that is not clear, sure, but the subtext of your comment is "I opened a thesaurus and tried to seem smart", which is why this conversation derailed here. You can't ignore the subtext to craft a mathematically perfect sentence..

-

Communication is about being understood.

The subtext of "Academic content is usually in text, not video" is "I don't trust this because it's in video, not text". Now if you say that is not clear, sure

Indeed, relying on the implicit when the explicit is sufficient [0] does a disservice to one's readers, in whose ability and charity to comprehend my surface text, without presuming confounding subtextual meaning, I have every confidence.

[0] It is not always; some things can only be gestured at, not grasped.

I hope some day you realize how cringe your comments are.

Great seethe here

The entitlement of clowns who think they get to control what someone else does on a flight because they think they're special is insane. Life's not fair, you don't get more space for being tall or fat, go frick yourself if gonna be my response if you act like a b-word about me reclining my seat.

Have fun having my knees in your back. If youre sitting in front of a tall person you dont lean back. You change how you act based on your copmany. Do you also put your feet on bus seats? Youre a c*nt

Some amazing gigaseethe from tallcel lanklets.

If you politely ask me to go up straight I probably will. If you pitch a fit like a petulant child when I've done nothing wrong we will both be uncomfortable for quite some time. You aren't more important than anyone else on the flight.

I shouldnt have to ask. What youve done is intrude on my space that I paid for. What youve done is essentially walk onto an airplane smelling like shit.

Accusing people of being indian is a little excessive

no, you paid for a seat behind another one that reclines, just like yours does. broke b-word mindset honestly

No, I paid for the space in front of my seat. You sound like a c*nt. If you cant sit up straight you clearly dont have the brain to fly.
