Made *do*. Toe the line, make do, make ends meet, intents and purposes, without further ado, another think coming, pique one's interest, bated breath, scapegoat, shoo-in.

Back to the list.


Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and except the facts, instead of making a half-harded effort. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.
 
Jack, I was going to tweak you about your post saying you don't get why people drag their feelings from old threads with them into new threads given your extensive ignore list and then I saw this,

All is forgiven. Captain Pedantic thanks you for serving your community and saving us the trouble. Credit where it is due, as it were.

I don't hold grudges. Lots of posters you know will never post anything interesting for a guy like me (talking about people who bang out solecism-filled one-liners or pure hackery). Plus, some people are just trying to stir the pot and are not sincere. That's fine for them, but I'm not interested in reading it, or really responses to it.
 
Hey @Khabib Khanate I was curious as to your opinion on this. Her book about women fighting ISIS looks amazing and then this book I'm fascinated by.. Double Bind, the Muslim Right and the Anglo American Left

https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/5050/double-bind-tied-up-in-knots-on-left/

Last year’s debate around Mona Eltahawy’s article on the oppression of women in the Middle East, called "Why do they hate us?" is a recent example of this double bind. As Parastou Houssori, who teaches international refugee law at the University of Cairo, observed:

Some of the other criticisms of El Tahawy’s piece illustrate the dilemma of the “double bind” that African-American and other feminists have also faced. For instance, when they write about their experiences, African-American feminists often find themselves caught between confronting the patriarchy within African-American communities, and defending their African-American brothers from the broader racism that exists in American society. Similarly, women who identify as Islamic feminists often find themselves in this bind, as they try to reconcile their feminism and religious identity, and also defend their religion from Islamophobia.
The entire article from her is worth reading.
 
For some reason, I think it always was meat too. Like you were trying to put bread on the table.
You know I think the world of you, man; don't make Captain Pedantic mete out punishment so close to the weekend. Read a book.
 
Normally I'm not a sucker for the holiday versions of a candy, but these are an exception.

Tongue in cheek, man. I mean, "Credit where it is due..."? C'mon, Jack. It's not like you to not see what I did there, as it were.
 
The only problem with that is the logic would also extend to transgender people and "they" have a problem with that, don't "they", @Deorum?
