This somewhat alarming video was recently posted in Reddit’s GamerGhazi subreddit. It features Sarkeesian Effect co-creator Jordan Owen explaining, at some length, his disagreements with antiporn feminist Gail Dines over the book Fifty Shades of Grey. (Dines, you see, was Owen’s previous obsession, before he discovered Anita Sarkeesian; this video is a couple of years old.) Alas, the sound cuts out about halfway through the nearly hour-long video, so you won’t get to hear the whole thing.
You might also be slightly distracted by the fact that Owen delivers this lengthy critique while sitting naked in a bathtub.
I have not read the book, and I will not be going to see the movie. Perhaps I will stay home and draw a bath š
Here’s mine:
This one is the old lady of the house (picture was taking a few years ago). She’s actually a little under the weather today, I hope it’s nothing serious. š But like I said, she’s at least 20 years old so i’m always worrying about her.
And this is the little one, who we saw wandering around our garden one day after someone dumped her on the road outside. Eventually we caught her and the RSCPA took her (she was heavily pregnant), and then we had her back!
I love Gail Dines. She is against the violence and degradation we see against women in a great deal of mainstream porn. Especially the gonzo that has become more mainstream. She explains what an effect this has on our sex lives and how lots of men try and pressure their girlfriends into doing things they see in pornos that they may not like. That pornography is where we get most of our sex education from and it hijacks our ability to find out what we like for ourselves. The titles of most porns are hugely racist and demeaning to women calling them cum buckets, sluts, etc,
I tried to watch this guy before but he’s so damn annoying I couldn’t finish his videos. Something really off putting about this character and he’s obsessed with Gail Dines which is funny. Gail even referred to him as her stalker lol.
Are we posting kitty pics? Lurker here, not regular, but I thought I’d toss mine into the fold

Here’s my cat (or rather…I’m her human? I think that’s how it works) taking a nap in my dresser drawer. Because everything is a kitty bed to her.
I love it when cats hug their faces. It’s so cute.

Dammit! How to insert images into comments?

I love everyone’s puss pics!
If only these pics had been the ones hacked from celebrity phones.
your kitty’s adorable!
Aw! Thanks. She always loves compliments.
alaisvex: Did you have to physically put her there in that spot, or is she just amazingly photogenic?
She got into that spot on her own. I’m not sure why, but she had her tail pressed against the wall.
Awww, wookit all da cute kitties! >squeeeeesqueeeeeeeeeeeee!!!<
Ahem. Here's my wild and crazy torbie:

She just HAS to remind everyone that she's a Sasquatch. In reality, though, she's the sweetest, friendliest fluffball around.
Also, good thing the screen door is cat-proof.
Ooh a polydactyl! On of my cats growing up, Clio the cream tabby was a polydactyl. She was such a pretty and elegant cat except for those big awkward 6 clawed paws. It just made her so much more adorable.
Aw! Bina, she’s looks so cute and fierce!
So many adorable kitties! <3
Did someone say cat pictures?
This is my old lady. She doesn’t like her special food, she doesn’t like the powder that goes on it, she doesn’t like her pills, and she doesn’t like her sub-Q. But she’s been pretty patient with me overall and I love her to bits.

This is her frenemy, who loves all food. Including the special kidney food. Which can make things a little tricky. She likes to get underfoot when it’s feeding time. I try to explain that if she kills me then I can’t feed her, but she doesn’t care.

I hope these aren’t huge embeds…
Dawn Incognito, lovely kitties!
Sounds like your old lady and Fribs would agree about all the kidney treatment. “I can’t eat this muck” is her reaction to the kidney food, and I gave up on the sub-q because it was distressing her too much (didn’t help that the vet gave us syringes rather than a drip feed). She loves her senior food, though.
Her frenemy sounds like Mads, who spends half her time getting under Mum’s feet. Given Mum’s sense of balance is shot, this is not a good thing!
Sub-q was distressing for everybody here. I got scratched several times and she was making alley cat noises that really upset me. She has regular trips to the vet now and is very good with them. I think it’s because a) they’re not afraid of doing it wrong or hurting her and b) it’s an unfamiliar environment so she tends to freeze up.
She absolutely would not eat the wet kidney food. We tried the dry and make it palatable with white cheddar popcorn powder. It’s been working pretty well so far.
Cats seem to love trying to trip humans up! First thing in the morning is the most difficult because I don’t wake up easily. I once tripped over the cat into a 6′ DVD tower at 7:30am. That woke everybody up really fast!
Lol, when I see a thread suddenly balloon up I know it’s either because a troll showed up, or because cat pictures.
Either way, it’s great.
