The Epstein files will be a big shock for her if they're ever made public. Epstein's circle was not a "conservative" one by any means.

He worked at Harvard, let's not be silly.

Epstein loved toys up his ass apparently

Trump used to be called "pretty butt" or something by his mentor, Roy Cohn, who was a gay man who died of aids...

And let's look up a pretty little picture of them two... Won't attach but it's the one where it looks like Trump is in drag or something.

Rare funny and inoffensive joke for this sub. Much better than chronically unfunny and dehumanizing ones I have seen on here.

Edit: some are just sexist/bommery without being funny. The cardinal sin of jokes.

Nah, I'm pretty sure the pointing was just her taunting an opponent (and former teammate afair) who had been excessively fouling Cunningham and/or her teammate Caitlin Clark and made the mistake of revealing that she REALLY hated being pointed at šŸ˜„

Still, knowing that the one doing that excellent trolling is herself a bigot kinda pisses in the fun-broth šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø

That's user reported outage data. Not official outage data. People remembering the cliche may cause the outage report to happen.

Those metrics are flimsy at best. And grinder itself reported no outages while common search sites did.

So I call homophobia on that.

Plus, because it's a meme, how much extra traffic does it get by people logging in to a) check if there is an outage and b) see if there are any politicians on there to swipe (or however it works, I don't use these apps)

"Grindr’s CEO has acknowledged that the app had a ā€œsignificant spike in usageā€ during last year’s Republican National Convention in Milwaukee."

Ok I will concede that they dont necessarily have official outages and that anyone can report to down detector.

But, there is an undeniable and officially confirmed spike in usage in the areas around the nazi rallies.

I don't think its homophobic at all to acknowledge that reality. I'm not sure why you're trying to throw that word around like a cudgel.

A significant spike in usage does not imply an outsized population of gays.

Acknowledging that many zealots are projecting insecurities in a performative display of gender expression is essential to understanding how toxic masculinity and patriarchy keep men (and everyone else too) from living authentic, fulfilling lives.

There is absolutely a correlation between conventions and increases in dating apps in an area. I doubt that conservative groups, no matter how closeted, can put up the numbers that the out and proud can put on the board, but there is undeniably a bump in traffc.

I think this "homophobes crash grinder" bit is more of an exaggeration than an urban legend though.

Jesus fuck. Calling out hypocritical hate and laughing at the absurdity is not the same as whatever the fuck you just said there. You have some deep seated issues, dude. Maybe projecting some shame or trauma? Seek help.

I think what they meant was conservative women are the sluttiest. now, I'm not slut shaming just pointing out an observation.

it's amazing what a person will do with a complete lack of self-respect. the acts of depravity are endless when their entire worth hinges upon the value the opposite sex places upon them for gratification.

ironically, the group that claims purity is likely one of the most fucked up groups.

this is why I believe that the MAGA cult is a sexploitation cult. it always comes back to sex with those people.

Why are conservative women sometimes better looking?

Because they're the one who tend to coast through life and get handed opportunities than less attractive women are. Some of the better looking women at my old job were rather right leaning...and every single one of them either banged their way into a position they weren't qualified for, would go and cry in the boss's office anytime they encountered a mild inconvenience or if someone wasn't nice to them, and always complained everyone else was lazy...despite them being the ones who showed up whenever they pleased and always had some BS excuse to leave whenever they wanted, or got a couple office simps to do half their work for them.

1 in particular would do nothing but whine about how trashy it was that someone in the office was sleeping with a married coworker... despite the fact she was also sleeping with a married coworker šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø

Spike in usage = the hypocritical nazis are on grindr while also supporting the filth who are actively attacking gay people.

That is the point I was making, I conceded that down detector can be manipulated but it's really a moot point when grindr itself shows a spike in usage.

No need to be a prick about it unless that's just who you are as a person.
