Love Your Professor
Post 150053 by CCBC deleted for the following reason: We've had plenty of fighty threads about campus politics these days, and how students are too soft, and shouldn't we be skeptical about rape claims, and so on, and we don't need to have another. -- LobsterMitten

Basic income for all?
Post 149970 by gottabefunky deleted for the following reason: Heya, posts including active fundraisers are a no-go for the front page, even if it's more a post about the reception of said fundraiser than about the fundraising itself. -- cortex

The Genderbread Person
Post 149868 by joseph conrad is fully awesome deleted for the following reason: Sorry for the late delete, but given the cited attribution problems, plus the fact that the site owner is also explicitly selling his book on this site, perhaps it's better to skip this -- or maybe a redo that includes the background. -- taz

Post 149766 by Atreides deleted for the following reason: This is bizarre for sure, but seems like it's not the product of someone who's in a good place, so it's maybe kind of point-and-laugh to throw attention on it. -- LobsterMitten

I don't need feminism because what I need is to bite you
Post 149705 by ChurchHatesTucker deleted for the following reason: Raising cat consciousness is a worthy goal, but we discussed this tumblr back when the 'women against feminism' thing was originally going around and I don't know that we need to rehash it. -- LobsterMitten
Thing Explainer
Post 149703 by HillbillyInBC deleted for the following reason: Aw, sorry, I love Up-Goer Five and I'm beyond excited for this book, but just the announcement that there will be a book isn't quite enough for a MeFi post. A post needs to have something for folks to read or look at on the web. Maybe when the book comes out he'll have sample pages to link to, and this could be a post then? -- LobsterMitten

Men In Black no, not the movies.
Post 149582 by eggtooth deleted for the following reason: This seems kinda thin for a post about notional international governmental disclosures.
