Looks like he took the paper too.
I’m now pondering how you steal a toilet without waking someone in a nearby room.
Not really my area of expertise.
In the Guardian, needless to say.
Leslie Kern, an unhappy feminist, wishes us to know that, with its “glass ceilings and phallic towers… the city is filled with reminders of masculine power.” And that, “our built environments can… reflect patterns of gender-based discrimination.” Though the few examples given, amid lots of rambling, aren’t entirely persuasive.
For instance, the fact that lactating ladies don’t often whip out their breasts in public – as ladies do in Rwanda, apparently. Or the fact that getting a pram on a bus can be a bit tricky. As an infinitely ignorant man, it seems to me that the rigmarole of manoeuvring cumbersome objects onto public transport isn’t damning evidence of “sexism in the city” or “patriarchy written in stone,” but more an issue of necessarily limited space. And a reminder of the advantages of the car.

But of course. It’s why we force feminists to live in the city in the first place. Or in Western civilization in general. Don’t believe me? Try finding feminists like this elsewhere. The Patriarchy (PBUI) demands that it be so.
“Ask any woman…..who goes for a jog at night” ……this place is not for you.
Seriously? I would replace the word woman with “anyone lacking the armour, weaponry and attitude of Judge Dredd”. Either that or someone with the fortitude of Jussie “I fought off two white racists/Nigerian bodybuilders without dropping my sandwich” Smollett.

Mission Impossible 17.
Mission Impossible 17.
In which a globe-spanning, high-octane plot revolves around a clandestine toilet heist.
Actually, I quite like the later Mission: Impossible films. The last three have, I think, been great fun.

Roofies.

It occurs to me that your now-inescapable, rather exciting reputation as a prostitute-dismembering cannibal who steals toilets from drugged women will be among our greatest achievements.

God. I only came in for a shandy!
Re: cities are sexist.
The article is actually headlined: Upward-thrusting buildings ejaculating into the sky’ – do cities have to be so sexist?
Blimey. It doesn’t get any better either.
defund the police. Transfer that money to affordable housing, childcare and public transport, all of which would dramatically improve women’s lives in ways that increased policing never has.
What is she on about?
My fourth and by no means final suggestion: seek out, listen to and employ diverse groups of city-dwellers in all areas of urban design, planning, policy-making, politics and architecture.
Leslie Kern is “a feminist urban geographer”. It’s all clear now.
Bet he bought it and installed it for her in those heady first days of romance.
Could be. This reminds me: Back in my youth there were a number of young women in an interest group I belonged to who used boyfriends as sources of food and shelter: they would live with a guy for awhile, and conveniently break up with him only when they had lined up another
boyfriendsucker to move in with. At least one of them said in my presence that she intended to continue to enjoy sleeping around for a long time (until she noticed that she was starting to lose her youthful beauty?) at which time she would stop ignoring men who had the right character traits to make good husbands. I don’t know what happened to them, but I suspect that by the time they were “ready to settle down” the number of available good men was limited and those who knew them from before would not trust them.seek out, listen to and employ diverse groups of city-dwellers in all areas of urban design, planning, policy-making, politics and architecture.
On the face of it that is very good advice: too many “urban planners” prioritize the theories of “experts” over the actual wants and needs of ordinary people.

“If women ruled the world…we’d still be living in caves…but with really nice curtains.”
Standing tag at Kate’s smalldeadanimals; and judging by the way they dress, if feminist urban geographers ran the world, I doubt the curtains would be nice either.
Shut up and make me a sammich or I’m taking your toilet.

I’m wondering how you can fall asleep while your now-ex is packing to leave. Unless, of course, it was a tempestuous farewell fuck.
He could have just removed the seat.
…lactating ladies don’t often whip out their breasts in public – as ladies do in Rwanda, apparently….
The difference being that a lactating Rwandan lady is breast-feeding her infant whereas a US or UK lady would be breastfeeding as performance art, it might be her dissertation for her doctorate in femxle studies.
…lactating ladies

The Great Vowel Shift was as nothing compared to the distortions of the language over the last couple of decades.
defund the police. Transfer that money to affordable housing, childcare and public transport, all of which would dramatically improve women’s lives in ways that increased policing never has.
In other words, transfer funding in place to protect the most vulnerable of our population and transfer it to programs to benefit upper middle class feminists
…the city is filled with reminders of masculine power
Wait until she tries nature.

Buried lede.

I find the Mission:Impossible film series fascinating, in that they’re trying so very hard to be everything but Mission:Impossible. The first one was a Ludlum novel, the second a Bond film, the rest have been more-or-less big budget episodes of Alias.

Sounds great:
Wait until she tries nature.
If electricity, hot showers, potable water, indoor toilets, Internet and cell service are reminders of masculine power, one suspects she might not enjoy their absence as much as she pretends. Though you never know — she might find a suggestive tree bole to shelter in. I’m sure that’s gotta be a great consolation prize.

I haven’t seen Alias, so I couldn’t say. Thing is, I wasn’t keen on the first three films. I didn’t mind them particularly, but I wouldn’t have travelled to see them on a big screen. But the last three instalments I’ve enjoyed quite a lot. It’s unusual for a franchise to get better, or at least more fun, as it goes on.
For those of you who like to keep track of these things, I’ve just had my first haircut in three months.
I am radiant and glorious.

Oh, basically as already noted.
A valve isn’t going to make much noise as it’s turned off. The sound of a flush is just background noise, and gets ignored as the water goes away. An assortment of bolts being turned will also be rather quiet. The local geography will be known, and a door will be propped open, with a car or van nearby.
At 90, Thomas Sowell drops another literary hand grenade. That no progressive will read.

I’m betting the three witches referenced on the previous thread won’t “do the work.”
The Wokerati attempt to cancel Steven Pinker. Apparently he once referred to some studies that don’t sufficiently support their imaginary utopian lunacies. He also was heard to claim that “all lives matter”. An obvious whistle to racist dogs.

What, again? They’ve made more attempts than Wiley after Roadrunner
What, again?
Perhaps they’ve been emboldened by finally getting David Starkey for observing (correctly) that slavery and genocide are mutually contradictory descriptions, but then letting the phrase “damn blacks” escape his lips during an interview with grovelling shit-weasel Darren Grimes.
Fitzwilliam college, where he
iswas a visiting professor, shat itself with excitement and announced:“Fitzwilliam prides itself in leading the way in Cambridge in opening access to higher education for underrepresented groups. Our student and academic bodies are diverse and welcoming to all. We do not tolerate racism.”
An hilarious lie.
And I’m sorry, but it’s Wile Coyote. Or Wile E. if you’re being formal. The ‘E’ stands for Ethelbert.

Dear David,
Please delete one of my duplicates.
Curse you, I’m the original! Delete him, David! Delete him!

Amount of thought?
In my case, on rather a lot of occasions I’ve been the or a community event stage manager, so, ehn, when noting someone else’s work, merely outlining the steps was the proverbial exercise left to the reader, and all that . . . .
Dear Duplicate,
Thanks for the laugh.
Curse you, I’m the original! Delete him, David! Delete him!
Siiiiggghhh, and yes, David, we’re gonnna need another calibration of the transporter, and yes, someone have the henchlesbians round the two of ’em up.
At least they both survived . . .
Dear David,
Well I’m OK with the duplicate.
I produced (as far as I know) only two biological children, both sons.
If my nom de comment generates numerous Duplicates, would that be like parthenogenesis?

‘Upward-thrusting buildings ejaculating into the sky’ – do cities have to be so sexist?
Hey sister, gaze upon this.
2+2=Western Imperialism.
‘Upward-thrusting buildings ejaculating into the sky’…
Meanwhile in Qatar…
Of all the possible designs, someone said “How about an enormous flying blue vagina?”.
And so it was.

All I had to type into Google was Beijing bird nest.
. . . someone said “How about an enormous flying blue vagina?”
And David can even add that to his collection of giant vaginas that he enjoys so much.
What?

I see the lady in question claims in her bio to be a “wannabe math person”
But even on its on bat-shit crazy basis that Guardian article is wrong.
First, most skyscrapers are square based, extremely pointy or extremely flat topped, and nothing like my penis at least. I think that most architects go out of their way to make sure their building is not going to look phallic. Hilarity ensues when people forget this.
Reality is that if you want to “see” genitalia in buildings, then female anatomy abounds.
As shown above, pretty much all modern stadiums are vulva shaped.
All over the world the principal building in a town is quite often breast shaped at the skyline (St Paul’s London, Duomo Florence, the Capitol Washington, etc, etc).
The picture at the article has “More additions to the phallic parade? … street bridges over the Chicago River”, where they manage to see penises where what I see are two flaps parting — which does make me think of genitalia, but not penises. Bad me. Anyway, most bridges are either flat and very unphallic, or have parabolic curves — also not phallic.
And whatever the Sydney Opera house brings to mind, it ain’t a penis.
Of all the possible designs, someone said “How about an enormous flying blue vagina?”.
But it’s Qatar, so the clitoris has been removed.
It’s depressing how low the bar is to be a dignified professional, but at least a handful of F1 drivers managed to barely clear it.
Oh and congrats on winning the thread pst.
Taken from the letter written by lifetime lefties when the angry mob finally showed up at their door.
It’s statements like this that have me convinced the Boogaloo is real and unavoidable. The vapid smugness of the people who’ve managed to wrest control of western society is so pervasive that even a micron of self-awareness and humility is unacceptable, leaving projection and blame-shifting as the only options. That some of the left’s (truly) brightest and thoughtful people can earnestly defend free speech while pretending the wolves at the door are anything but their own pack is proof enough.
But it’s Qatar, so the clitoris has been removed.
That, or even with a blueprint the builders couldn’t find it.
That, or even with a blueprint the builders couldn’t find it.
I can’t imagine why, since they have no trouble finding a young boy’s butt and that’s a lot bigger.
Oh, look, a start of awareness does occur . . . .
As we keep noting over and over, right wing is irrelevant, left wing is irrelevant: Being the extreme remains the extreme and the centered and balanced keep getting stuff done, regardless.
So, Ehn, at the very least, one can note signs of growing awareness among the mere extremes, one can note the growth of:
And the traffic lights do keep operating just fine.

“It’s depressing how low the bar is to be a dignified professional, but at least a handful of F1 drivers managed to barely clear it”
I could have put money on Verstappen and Leclerc being among them. The more I see of those guys, the more I like them (and it takes a lot for me to warm to a Ferrari driver). Old heads on young shoulders. On the other hand…
“I still think there’s people that don’t fully understand what’s happening and the reason for the protest”
Yeah, and I think you’re one of them, Lewis.
Anyhoo… There is nothing new under the sun.
And David can even add that to his collection of giant vaginas that he enjoys so much.
How’d I miss that? I must’ve, because I’d remember it. Well, I’ll remember it now!
And because it’s so “memorable”, I’ve just put a small contribution in the tip jar. It’s not that I particularly want to see *more* giant vaginas. But random weirdness is…memorable. Or something.
