Ive read so many great posts on reddit the last couple of days about the Gunil situation, with excellent break downs on why what he said is really deeply offensive, with extensive reasoning and explanations.

The issue I have is, I fear the people who need to hear this are not on reddit. I've seen soo many dumb takes on tiktok in the last few days that I was genuinely blown away by the stupidity.

I have to come clean and say that although ive been here since debut, back when we all wanted to be known as XHoes or sidekicks, but after Junhans eugenics comments, I stepped back and stepped away, because as someone no longer in their 20s, I saw where this was going and I wanted no part of it. I listened to CBs to see if I liked the music and then moved on, and im glad I did, I trusted my instinct as a woman.

Please remember that korea is a deeply conservative country, 4b started there for a reason And all around the world women are very quickly and very quietly losing basic rights, rights our forebearers fought very hard to obtain for all women and girls, accepting this kind of behaviour from a man and dismissing the underlying issues that got them to this moment, only opens up the gap and emboldens them and other men to do the same.

For crying out loud, hold these men accountable, hold yourself in a higher regard, have some respect for yourself as a woman/young woman/girl, because if you dont, no one else will and its a slippery slope and it will be a hard fight to regain the rights and respect back that you and all of us deserve.

Stan culture* in some ways only enables the red pill, Incel bros which fuels the rise in right wing politics and if you cant see how they are connected i fear for society.

* if you want proof of this, just look at how some are justifying his words, or look at how some people in certain fandoms would rather tear down orher women before holding their faves accountable, even if their faves support rapists and domestic abusers.

Spain were robbed of that goal, if Argentina win this with 1 man down, it tells me all I need to know about this tournament and FIFA.

Yesterday my daughter and I took a train into Central, we got to Waterloo and I dashed to the ladies bathroom. We then left and walked over to the south bank, my daughter is back from uni and we had plans for a nice lunch. It was then I realised I didn't have my phone.

​

My heart was racing as I realised I'd just misplaced my brand new phone. I ran back to Waterloo and down the stairs to the bathroom where i met a huge queue for the toilets, I asked if I could check the cubicle I'd used for my phone and the girls in the queue kindly let me, but my it wasn't there, so I saw a member of staff by the stairs between the men's and women's bathroom.

​

Out of breath I asked if anyone had handed in a black phone with a dinosaur on the case (I'm a nerd) he then drew out of his top pocket my phone. In that moment i could have kissed him, I didn't, but I did hug him, he was such a nice friendly older chap and he helped calm me down as the relief sunk in.

​

Sadly I couldn't thank the kind girl or woman who found my phone and handed it in. I decided it must just be good karma as 3 weeks ago I found a guys phone on a seat at Waterloo and handed it in to staff.

​

So to whoever was kind enough to do the right thing, I hope your pillow is always cool, your bank account always full and nothing but happiness awaits your future.

What Pokemon from mainline games do you want to see in PoGo, that have yet to be added.

I'd like to see Chien-pao and Koraidon in both its forms. Although I guess they'd introduce the same way they did the legendary dogs from Sword and shield.

Back when I was younger, my mother always used to say I was like a "Whirling Dervish" as I moved through the house. I just assumed it was one of the many weird phrases my mother used as we were a multicultural household.

Then I heard the term used in a video and went to actually check, and its a real thing. 😳

This question has caused serious discussion amongst friends and family, so now I'm asking reddit.
