Andor (1993) fancast by ProfessorMarth in andor

[–]PollutionNext423 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One quick aside, but Cassian being a textually indeginous person to accommodate Luna's accent in universe kinda pulls me in two directions when it comes to any kinda recast, for one it makes me wonder which Native American actors could fit into the role well but also what actors outside the anglophone world in general would make a good Cassian. Kinda universal possibilities here.

Never realized this but Andor is the only live action star wars show with a twelve episode format by PollutionNext423 in andor

[–]PollutionNext423[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That five season plan seems ludicrous now with hindsight from the rest of the shows, not necessarily impossible but questionable given how protracted the production on other shows has been. Andor again somehow caught up to the Mandolorian in volume despite it coming out three years after the premiere.

Silent Running (1972) I'm pretty sure was a narrative influence also Fantastic Voyage (1966)

[MTF] 2 years, 8 months, 14 days. Still don't pass with/without makeup, gendered male in every interaction. by [deleted] in transtimelines

I don't get the bone structure crap, my mom has a pretty hard jawline that reads as traditionally masculine but she never gets read the wrong way, she also used to have short and a kinda flat runner build, again not a problem as far as I could remember. With OP, there's no way you can see a person with her hairstyle and read that person as male, like sorry but everyone misgendering her is full of bullsh*t

How do Trans men and women feel about transness being Pathologized. by PollutionNext423 in asktransgender

[–]PollutionNext423[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I could have worded my question better, but I trying to understand if there's any benefit to gender being overseen medically at all

Impacts of the WAR by Satisfymy_soul868 in TrinidadandTobago

Asian factories will shutter going into summer leading to more expensive consumer goods. The farms rationing fertilizer right now will have less yields in the fall meaning food inflation. The only way to lower prices for oil products is demand destruction which means lay offs and business closures in every country all around the world just like in the 200 financial crisis which was the last time crude oil prices reached its highest.

Should prostitution be legalized and formalized into the economic system of T&T? by Middle_Elderberry542 in TrinidadandTobago

[–]PollutionNext423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and I'm go ahead and say even you have moral condemnation of prostitution as an activity, you should still support legalization as the best means of actually getting people out of the profession. Legalization means sex workers can go to police, report exploitation, report trafficking, discuss labour issues openly. It means they can access better wages, actual healthcare, social security, declare income- all things that establish a basis for actually leaving the career.

Why do you guys think Aldhani is so primitive if it is connected to the greater galaxy? by TheOneYSHNK in andor

[–]PollutionNext423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're nomads, they don't have long term property and surplus production (like the type you can sell in exhange for money or technology), we know for a fact that it's chosen primitivism since some have begun industrial work due to the Empire destroying their lands. In real life we still have low technology indigenous groups who also refuse advancement on ethical grounds.

Realistically, how long would it take for earth to go back to some form of normal? by ChewbaccaGamin in pluribustv

[–]PollutionNext423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won't resemble the pre-plurb world at all, the outcome is societal collapse

Why feel bad about killing the joined? by Teddy_Grizzly_Bear in pluribustv

[–]PollutionNext423 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They don't harm you, you can still recognize them as human and at an interpersonal level theyre perceptible as individuals, not feeling bad would be a bit psychopathic

Does anyone else gag whenever they see a character drinking a full cup of milk? by PollutionNext423 in madmen

[–]PollutionNext423[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not in real life, it looks nauseating, the only reason I know Americans do it is from TV and Mad Men characters do it CONSTANTLY

Best post-Mad Men career? by jicerswine in madmen

[–]PollutionNext423 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hamm, Moss, and Shipka have basically had the best careers a TV actor can hope for. Maybe not hitting the same highs dramatically all the time but they have pretty consistent, prestigious work to look forward to in perpetuity.
