Be very careful with that desire of yours to be able to watch all people all the time the second they step out into public. Even in a magical world where all laws are sensible and just—which is, notably, not the situation in the real world—it is still possible to do a lot of harm with that kind of information.
I mean, if it’s really N-ICE Mode…
Honestly? To defend yourself primarily against your neighbors. Plenty of times the US hasn’t been dumb enough to go this quasi-official route; they just would rile up ordinary citizens and then sit back and just not interfere as those citizens went in and lynched and burned entire cities.
For more history on this, you can start with the Tulsa massacre and work up from there.
Have the day you voted for, asshat.
Or, hot take, a company that sells clothes with pockets makes less money than a company that sells clothes without pockets and then offers ladies $50-150 purses to compensate. If you think the fashion industry hasn’t noticed that, you’re crazy.
It’s like how the American auto industry noticed they could make more money selling big vehicles and so all of them just stopped making smaller cars. Plenty of Americans say they want smaller cars, but the American auto makers don’t care.
No, it’s definitely a thing, and trends more in clothes geared to older women. When I shopped at Forever 21 back when I was in my 20s, I was a size 4-6; when I shopped at REI I was a size 4. When I shopped at Chicos, on the other hand, which caters almost exclusively to older women, I was a size 0. And sometimes even that was too big on me.
They want us to all go back to saying things like ‘she’s in a delicate condition’ and shit lol
Boy I wish. But stop believing in gods and people find other things to worship, as the techbros and cults of personality prove. There seems to just be part of the population that wants a ‘higher force’ to mindlessly follow.
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
They are showing they are in the ‘in-group’ by flouting the rules they dictate to everyone else. It’s a key part of showing you’re in the in-group, and powerful within that group. The more rules you can flout the more powerful you are.

Yes that would be the joke.
