jjagaimo, (edited ) in What do you think happened to the hikers in the Dyatlov Pass Incident?

I thought theory was a fire/smoke leaking /explosion inside the tent caused by the homemade stove leading to them cutting their way out and running, and then getting separated and lost in the confusion, before succumbing to hypothermia

intensely_human,

That does seem to fit the findings. Then missing eyes and tongue are just birds or rodents chewing them out.

deadcatbounce, in Circumcised men, how do you feel about your parents having mutilated your penis without your consent?
@deadcatbounce@reddthat.com avatar

It’s amazing that FGM is outlawed in much of the first world (plus America), but not MGM.

All guys want is equality. Yet ne’er a feminist around when men are the unrepresented victims.

Devi,

I don't know many, possibly any feminists who are pro-circumcison

That’s not what I suggested.

I know quite a few who have no support for boys having the same rights that girls enjoy. If they did the law would have been written with males and females considered equal. There’s is no downside for girls asking for equality for boys.

Isn’t that what feminism is all about? Equality?

Devi,

I think you're confused. Feminism IS about equality. Where do women want less rights for men??

deadcatbounce, (edited )

No. Egalitarianism is about egalitarianism. Feminism is about female domination. The clue is in the name. You’re that dumb.

There are no rights that men have that women don’t. However

Laws rightly protect against FGM, nothing protects against MGM. The child might have to have his penis removed, mangled to such an extent that it causes significant daily pain and all kinds of suffering, foreskin removal means loss of sensation. All totally legal.

Children don’t have the right to a relationship their fathers. 90% of divorces allocate children to the mother. I was a victim of that decision by diagnosed physically and mentally abusive narcissist. Women are the number one cause of child death or abuse. Number two is mum’s new bf. Dad’s are number four or five; they (ONS here in the UK) stopped publishing the numbers/ranking when certain groups objected to facts.

It is significant that the marital assets and income generally follow the person who obtains control of the children. The allocation isn’t about the best person to care for the children, it’s about the assets and income.

About a fifth of the children who go through DNA in the child maintenance payments procedures are found to have the incorrect person listed on their birth certificate. The rest of men having their assets, income and liberty at risk don’t know. UK Government FoI fact. Having a DNA test to establish paternity in France is not even legal.

“Under child support legislation it is a criminal offence to make a false statement or representation, and to provide false documents or information.

However, according to the CSA, there has not been a single prosecution of a woman for making a false claim. The figures showing the number of false paternity claims have been compiled using freedom of information legislation.”

The incidence of criminal convictions in the case of two parent households is the same as those of single parent male households. Single parent female households have much higher conviction rates for their children.

Male suicide is many times that of women but always men are never involved in the TV coverage. It’s always some women using the boy’s death for their publicity and victimhood. I know exactly what that’s like to watch, and know that the women involved are never going to try to help deal with the issues before or after.

Knowingly false allegations by women are standard procedure for a disagreement with boys or men. I’m not talking about mistaken identity or an accident. Everyone of age knows a someone who has had this used on a man as a threat to extract what they want or other leverage. The numbers of male teachers in schools has nose dived.

Here in the UK, legal aid except for domestic violence, cases was curtailed in 2010 (?), the following quarter as published by the government body CAFCASS, the number of restraining order applications increased by something like seven times if I recall. Coincidence? Seven times more men committed acts of domestic violence on a woman immediately after domestic violence was a requirement. We regularly hear on the media that another man has been released from prison after serving lengthy time fully exonerated for the rape crime he was sentenced, others are not so lucky.

As a result, the rape convictions for real female victims keep falling. It is well known that gay men and men in prison do not report rape. Ever.

Domestic violence incidents in lesbian households by far outweigh those in any other household including gay, straight, etc. The woman who set up the world’s first domestic violence shelter now actively campaigns for domestic violence shelters for men and children and disowns the feminists who refused to accept that men can be victims and took over her cause for equality. Her name is Erin Pussey. Google her.

There is continuous series of sexual abuse by female teachers of students in loco parentis (literally in place of the parent). Otherwise known as paedophilia. The media cannot use the word rape, even though that’s what it is, because the female teacher doesn’t have a penis. The relevant statute demands that penetration by the penis is the only definition constituting rape.

The invincibility of women that they feel for their outlandish views/actions has given rise to the concept of the Karen. There doesn’t appear to be a sustained male equivalent.

I can go on but you’ve already stopped reading.

Devi,

Ohhh, you're a nutter, sorry, didn't realise. I was talking to you as if you were a person that lived in reality. I'll leave you to your delusions.

The sources are either the government, agencies of the government, or left leaning newspapers of record.

If you think they’re nutters, you need a check up from the neck up.

Men shouldn't count on feminists to liberate them. Men must liberate themselves without resorting to misogyny.

Mediocre_Bard, in What MMOs are you all playing?

World of Warcraft Retail … still.

cryostars,

Like every day or casual? Shadowlands was pretty much the nail in the coffin for me retail-wise. Have had some fun with classic the last couple years though.

Azteh,

For me it’s every day for new seasons for about 2 months and then I start going casual and just raid log.

What is Reddit?

ArgentRaven, in What MMOs are you all playing?

I was the same way. I quit WoW after WotLK, and started looking into it again about two years ago. Then I saw the bad reviews and how the story tanked. So I looked around at the other big ones, and FFXIV looked interesting. The story is kind of average until you get past level 50 stuff, but it gets really good. Shadowbringers is just a masterpiece. Easily as good as any other FF title you’ve played. I came for the graphics, and stayed for the lore. Compared to WoW, the graphics are great, that is.

The PvE is good, especially when you consider that you don’t need an alt. If you make it to level 60 and find you don’t like the class you picked, you can just start with a new job on your same character and continue. So you can pay all classes without going back to the newbie tutorial zones. Plus, you will “level sync” to old content. Making the level 20 dungeon worth running as a level 89. It’s not instantly forgotten, dead content.

PvP isn’t as good as WoW. It’s fun, and I do it daily, but there’s no rock paper scissors mechanics or supreme balance like back in the day in WoW.

I don’t feel like I’m on a treadmill, and I’m not pressured to log in every day or fall behind. I can play casually, take a break, and not feel like I’ve lost out. Some people are hardcore raiders, but those days are behind me.

I would never go back to WoW now. I like it better overall than I ever did running Molten Core, or Burning Crusade even. Which was pretty peak WoW, imo.

Remmock, in What MMOs are you all playing?

I’m holding off until the League of Legends MMO comes out.

shinigamiookamiryuu, in What MMOs are you all playing?

All of them. If it exists I’m on there.

ghostdoggtv, in What MMOs are you all playing?

If you watch the blizzcon talk where hozzikostas talks about the new features coming out in the next xpac, you’ll want to reinstall GW2 too.

Old School RuneScape, getting in a clean 7 hours a day

Wolfizen,
@Wolfizen@pawb.social avatar

It’s one of the best! And I feel it really holds up well as a modern game with classic design.

Potatos_are_not_friends, in What MMOs are you all playing?

I dislike MMOs that require friends, working together, joining other people. I’m not knocking it. It’s just not for me.

So the closest things to MMOs that I like are more single player but with people. Kinda like people who go to coffee shops with a laptop.

The list:

Fallout 76. I jump back in every few months to check out my house and then leave. I played for about 350 hours before I felt like I did everything.

New World. It got pretty good! Honestly I just like chopping wood. Maybe 100 hours?

Elder Scrolls Online. The combat is so “floaty”. But if you can get passed it, the story is really really really good. Maybe 400 hours?

Wolfizen,

Old School RuneScape is a mostly solo MMO. Essentially single player with people, like you described wanting.

friedligma, in Lighthearted, upbeat shows for adults?

Schitt’s Creek and Letterkenny deserve some spots here

plantedworld, in Lighthearted, upbeat shows for adults?

Eureka is kind of a disaster of the week pseudoscience problem show with a lot of heart. Don’t go looking for true scifi, but it’s so damn charming and the cast has exceptional chemistry.

lemmy_at_em,

I really loved Eureka, but the whole everyone thinks Carter is an idiot schtick makes it hard for me to rewatch.

tronx4002, in Lighthearted, upbeat shows for adults?

It is cancelled now, but Last Man on Earth is such a great show.

themajesticdodo,

I found it really hard to get into. If I had something else I wanted to watch I wouldn’t have started season 2. By the time it ended I was hoping for just one more season.

WashedOver,
@WashedOver@lemmy.ca avatar

I’ve not made it through the first season. It is so cringe to me at this point. It does get better then?

themajesticdodo,

Halfway through the second season it turns away from it. It goes on longer than it should before he starts to develop as a character. It gets a little bit more comfortable after that with enough plot points to keep you engaged. At some point you might cry. Jason Sudekis is good.
