More thoughts on the election from the Manosphere. These are from the comments section of Chateau Heartiste, in response to that little manifesto from Mark Minter we talked about the other day, and which Minter also posted at the Chateau.
Here John Salt suggests that “force” works better than voting. And, oh yeah, he’s also as racist as Hitler.
Here Sidewinder offers some “optimism” for the future:
You’ll notice that no one there voices opposition to any of these sentiments.
Hugs and cheers for Cheeto and his rescuer and his rescuer’s mum!
Yay cloudiah!
Also I like the replacement of Stuff On My Cat with the more traditional Cat On My Stuff.

kitty is having a hard time settling in
/sarcasm
and well done Cloudiah, shout all you like! now i have an excuse for a glass of fizzy wine this evening
squeeeeeeeeeeee
W.F. Price tries his hand at writing a steamy romance novel, set “hundreds of feet under polar ice in a multi-billion dollar, reactor-powered vessel loaded with nuclear ballistic missiles” because as we all know wimmenz wouldn’t be able to resist “a high-ranking officer on the hard edge of American imperial power.”
Woo hoo Cloudiah!!! 🙂
All these kitties are causing a desire to squee so strong it burst over the levee of regulations and codes of conduct.
Nope, it still doesn’t really work even when you include kitties. That proves it’s bad writing.
Ah…I’m so sad- I could never foster animals because MY HOME WOULD BECOME THEIR FOREVER HOME. I couldn’t give up my fuzzy babies any more than I could give up my human babies. Sadly….we only live in a small apartment, so it would be patently unfair to keep more than one kitty here. But if we get a house….I’m thinking two dogs and two cats… Does that make me a “crazy animal person”? XD
Given infinite resources in terms of space and money my house would look like Hemingway’s – completely overrun with cats. But with added Huskies and Newfies.
@duality heart,
speaking as someone that has owned 4 cats in the past all at the same time, now has 2 cats, 3 guinea pigs, 2 daughters (and a Mr Big Momma) and is thinking about getting chickens, your 2 dogs and 2 cats sound perfectly reasonable
Price should never write anything more complicated than a shopping list again. That was painful to read.
Dualityheart, we have four cats, I don’t care if we’re “those people.”
I always read Price’s name as “W.T.F. Price.” It fits.
It’s not? You live, you learn.
Late to the party, as usual. But hurray for Cloudiah!
Hurray to having multiple animals (if I didn’t have the mister to keep me in line, there would be many, many dogs here; he insists I limit it to one, though 🙁 ).
And boo to W.F. Price’s fiction.
Patak’s Mango: What gives?
Your wrong, that’s what gives.
You seem to have some issues, and projecting them into the past (and really, Freud, as expert on religion? Just So Stories to shore up his pet theories in other areas).
But you demonstrate your wrongness in your own words.
Compare and contrast:
Your statement one: The nature of monotheism, as its come out of the middle east and starting with Judaism, is that it does have the concept of religious freedom and when it is confronted with it, does not respect it.
And your statement two:
At least Jews don’t seek to convert others, normally at least.
So the Ur-religion, on which your entire case is rests, doesn’t try to convert. Seems to be a religion that’s willing to live and let live. The internal evidence of it’s sacred writings gives the lie to it. There are specific rules about how to treat those who aren’t Jews (neither shall the stranger in your midst work on the sabbath; one forgives debts to them in the Jubilee, etc.). You are citing Freudian fantasy novels to justify your opinions…
Wait… Freud isn’t your authority? Then what are you doing using him as your go to guy to explain the “reasons”. He’s an authority, or he isn’t.
Then again, it’s possible you are just bailing like mad, trying to bulldoze your way through the contrary evidence; figuring you can invoke a famous name and we’ll all bow before the power of it’s talismanic might.
You are contradicting yourself (see above) and oversimplifying to the point of inanity.
I know it’s not blue cloth but surely this must be the sort of officer that woeful fiction is about? 😛
Congrats, Master Cloudiah!
And kudos to BigMomma and Kim and the rescuers of Cheeto. And all rescuers/fosterers of kitties!
Also, whatshername Pickle turns out to have been the reincarnation of an old troll, so I’m ushering her out the door.
Thanks, hellkell, for your acute troll-spotting abilities.
Also, in case anyone is wondering, there are something like 160 million Muslims in India, making up about 13% of the population.
In Pakistan, where Muslims make up something like 95-97% of the population, there are 180-185 million Muslims.
So because India is so much more populous, there are nearly as many Muslims in that overwhemlingly Hindu country as there are in the even-more-overwhelmingly Muslim Pakistan.
(I got the numbers from Wikipedia.)
@clairedammit
I was merely saying you shouldn’t use Ronnie James Dio’s name in vain.
“Mistress” please, not Doctor or Master. I am a Mistress of Information! 😀
SRSLY, you guyz are so sweet. And the kitties are the SWEETEST.
I now have an image of a dominatrix spouting interesting factoids in between whipping a client (or maybe thumping ’em with an encyclopaedia). 🙂
Um, Kittehs’, have you ever attended one of the annual meetings of the American Library Association? Because that dominatrix thing… I’m not saying anything more.
So I have all this adrenaline in my system from my presentation today, but no energy to actually work on the things my committee suggested. I may be here all night.
