How do you make the pay equal?



The "standard" 70/100 gap. It's been present for a long time (before you were placed in charge of it), but due to outside political and social pressure, you must now make the pay between men and women equal.

How do you go about this?

(Stuff like this is likely a lot more complicated than this scenario provides, but let's put that aside for now.)

RBY Mewtwo is more broken than any other proceeding pokemon though?

Mewtwo was at least fixed due to the mechanics changes in Gen 2.

But since Gen 3, the Pokemon have overall been becoming faster and more offensive, and Mega Evolution just made that worse.

It's to the point where having base 100 in Speed or the attacking stats is no longer impressive.

If you're truly unable to work, SSI is for you. But if you're simply choosing not to, because you'd rather play video games all day, fuck you.

Yeah. They call working people "wagecucks", because the workers' tax money is being used to support the NEETs on SSI.

I think it should be handled based on the facts of the specific case. If a bear breaks into a campsite and mauls someone unprovoked, then attempting to track it down and kill it is warranted.

However, if someone went out of their way to mess around with a bear cub and gets killed by the mama bear, the animal shouldnt be faulted.

So what I propose, is a rebranding, with a more inclusive, non-gendered name so it is much easier to sell as being just about gender equality. As an added bonus, the absolute most diehard opponents of dropping the feminism label for a new one, should be the most like, militant, extreme feminists, so this would actually act as a filter to thin the number of extremism under the new label. For a time, anyway.

"Egalitarianists" sound good.

I might be crazy, but I could have sworn that Miyamoto himself compared Mario, Peach and Bowser to Popeye, Olive Oil and Bluto at one point in regards to how they're just supposed to be cartoon characters that can play various roles depending on the game.

Which may go back to the fact that the original Donkey Kong arcade game was originally supposed to be a Popeye game (starring Popeye, Olive Oyl, and Bluto in the roles of Mario, Pauline, and DK, respectively), but they couldn't get the license.

Imagine how things would have been different if Nintendo were able to get the rights.

Because as a sweeping generalization open racists are more likely to be conservative. Often due to stances like opposition to immigration and strict laws on drugs/crime.

And conservatives are more likely to support Trump.

It would be unusual if the traditionally liberal candiate got more support from racists

lol obama got 90% of the black vote due to his skin color

Black people overwhelming vote Democrat regardless.

The Mexican side of my family has a big problem with this and I've always been aware of it in friends and classmates as well.

My dad was the darkest of his siblings (his dad was allegedly a black man but that has never been verified) with curly hair and he was always hated and excluded for it. He had to eat last, didn't get to go to school, always got beat by his mom, etc. I truly despise him but the more I think about what a shitty upbringing he had, the more I just feel sorry for him.

I have a cousin who is black (rumored to be one of my father's illegitimate children, actually) and we got along the most as kids because all the other cousins would treat us like shit, him for being too black and me for being too white.

Both in family and in my community, "Negrito" was a word I heard quite often and never, ever in a positive or endearing way. It was always indicative of ridicule and exclusion.


My girlfriends family is the same way. She has a cousin who is like 8 but he's half black half el salvadorian and he gets treated awfully by the older members of the family.

And not one of them sees anything wrong with treating a child like that?

Actually, it does remind me of a conversation I once had with this Mexican girl who pretty much told me not to go after Mexican girls, because they're racist. But then again, I got the impression that she was kind of a bitch, anyway.

That said, I don't think I ever saw any Black guys going out with any Hispanic girls. I did see a few White guys dating Hispanic girls, though. But we all know that White guys generally can pretty much get any girl they want without even trying.
