I sense a theme there: everything they acquired was underwhelming before they acquired it.
Tumblr, on the other hand, has a lot of users that are fully addicted. I can see things turning out differently.
Forgive me, for I am ignorant. Why do some many of you not even get revenue?
Is the aim to build a userbase before monetizing the site (or flipping it)?
Honestly, I think it's the natural course of things for feminism to go too far. It's society finding its bounds. When too far is reached, people will revolt, and we'll go the other way again. Eventually, equilibrium will be reached. At least, that's my dumbass arm-chair anthropologist assumption of things.
I'm 5'3", it is an insane disadvantage. Even if that's false, no amount of words will change the belief -- it's experiences that change that.
But we both know that, no matter how fucked up you are, there are girls who would consider you "good enough". Your job is to go out and find out what those girls are like. One of two things will happen: either you're fine with those girls; or you'll suddenly find a massive motivation to improve yourself (for an endgame of what's possible, see Seth Green)
Your only problem right now is ignorance. Go out and change that.
Sexism, bad. But let's keep our heads on straight here.
Just because someone treats you like shit, and you're a woman, doesn't mean it's sexism.
1. Maybe they treat her like shit because she's new, and the feminine stuff is just one reason to rag on her. If she was a tall guy, they'd probably make fun of that too.
2. Maybe they treat her like shit because, for some reason, despite all this, she hasn't actually asked them to stop -- just complained about it on the Internet
A lot of people will get angry at me for this, because sexism is a very real problem.
But not everything is fucking sexism.
Sorry, but in this case, I don't consider a lack of willpower to be a moral deficiency.
When does the need for willpower become excessive? When does it change from a deficiency in the person, to a deficiency in the environment?
If one doesn't have the willpower to work 15 hour days, that isn't a deficiency in the person, it's a deficiency in the environment.
I argue that the same is the case for people with sleep and eating disorders. To fix these disorders with willpower alone, is simply too much to ask for the majority of people. It lies in a deficiency in the environment -- an unlimited access to unhealthy food, and an unlimited access to stimulating light.
Willpower clearly isn't the way. We have to look at solving these problems by improving our environment (I don't mean that in a green, nature way, I just mean whatever existence surrounds the person with the issue)
