Splatoon should allow you to purchase more genders.
Just imagine if Tumblr found a way to monetise genders. They'd make billions overnight.

I would not be surprised to learn someone has already tried to copyright a gender identity and demand that nobody else declare themselves to be that gender without paying a licensing fee.

I mean, they've already claimed you can't declare yourself certain genders without it being cultural appropriation, so the basic seeds are there.

Fuck, I've got to get in on this.

Too late I have already registered trademarks and filed patents for 'crackersexual', 'breadesexual', 'brotsexual' (which is breadsexual but german) and 'unleavensexual'

Hah, jokes on you. Those aren't genders.

Meanwhile, I've trademarked "crackergender", "breadgender", "brotgender" and "unleavenedgender", as well as "sourdoughgender" and "wholegraingender" for good measure.

I call "flatbreadgender."

Even though my 21st birthday is 6 months away, I'm thinking of for it getting another tattoo since the first one didn't hurt as much as it did, I'm trying to figure out which one to get.

Ooh! That's the fun phase. Going to do like a Pintrest board of just stuff you like or are you going for a theme?

Just shit I like, since I got a Rebel Alliance tattoo for my first one I was thinking of getting a Triforce or a Black Lantern Logo, or something from RWBY. Not sure but I got six months to decide.

Am I the only one who thinks Andrew Schlafly will depend on and perhaps even live with his mom for the rest of her life...and then a few months after her death, though he won't stop consulting her necessarily.

Look at a picture of Schlafly to get the joke.

The teacher I correct slides for has a habit of using more than one exclamation mark at a time. I'm reminded of Terry Pratchett, and worried for his mental state.

There's nothing more awkward than finding a Livejournal full of fantastic rare historical photos that's also run by a Russian right-wing nationalist.

I kind of wonder what would happen if there was an experiment where people move into houses that are "haunted" or have a dark past without that information being told to them, while other people move into normal houses that they've been told are "haunted" or have a bad history.

My guess is the people in the normal houses would start interpreting normal things as hauntings, while the people in the "haunted houses would have normal lives. Paranoia is powerful.

"2/3rds of Americans believe President Obama's supreme court nominee should receive a fair hearing in the senate."

...The thing that should be getting the attention is that 1/3 of Americans apparently don't think that the nominee should receive fair treatment. How partisan do you have to be that even if the nominee is good you think they are tainted simply because Obama chose them?

All of Obama's candidates for Scalia's vacancy are either brown, yellow-brown, and/or female, and/or foreign born. So, you see the mentality of the "Real Miss America" meme: where are the white males?

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

...Are white men underrepresented in the "Miss America" contests? [/comically missing the point]

I started laughing at work today because the phrase "testicular homicide" sort of... appeared in my head, complete with the mental image of someone being teabagged to death.
