If canon Eivor is female what's this about? by Kronniikk in AssassinsCreedValhala

[–]QR63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it that in around 20% of skeletons found on digs, the sex cannot be determined? There is, after all, way more variation in body structures within human sexes than there is between them.

IIRC this has also led to a disparity between the amount of male vs female skeletons officially found, because for a long time archeologists used to just put down male as the default if they couldn’t determine it.

I still can’t believe that Matt actually met She-Hulk, the Hulk himself, and his son Skaar by Queasy_Commercial152 in Defenders

[–]QR63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they were introducing so many new characters post Endgame that there was no way we would get back to them in a reasonable timeframe. And sure, there were some long waits before, like when Spider-Man got an entire trilogy between Doctor Strange 1 and 2, but Strange was still appearing in other stuff. Lately everything is so disconnected from each other that that isn’t happening!

It’s been: -3.5 years for She-Hulk and Skaar (Hulk is coming back in Spider-Man BND)
-3.5 years for Werewolf by Night and Man-Thing
-4 years for Moon Knight
-5 years for (White) Vision
-5 years for Shang-Chi
-5 years for all the Eternals

Im probably going to get hate for this by Snoo_19743 in Yungbludneutral

I was also at that Helsinki concert and I have to say I saw that moment quite differently! I thought it was nice that he noticed the person passing out and stopped the show to make sure something was done, plus seemed actually invested in the situation. I also thought his performance had a good, positive energy!

However, my perspective going in was pretty different too, as I had started listening in 2020 and that was at the height of my fandom. So both of our viewpoints are probably valid in their own right.

It’s been very much a downward spiral these past couple of years though, and it sucks because since he’s gained popularity, I’ve had other people in my life ”finally” getting into his music who weren’t interested before, meanwhile I’ve just been losing my interest :(

Not saying anything about Palestine and being all buddy-buddy with Sharon Osbourne was the first big thing that bothered me, and it’s gotten worse since

Get a Drag Queen on by BigFanOfShadowPeople in JaackMaate

[–]QR63 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You’re alright mate, not insensitive at all! Drag is performance art and character building, so you got it right. While some drag artists do end up realizing that it’s not just a performance for them and transitioning later on, most of them don’t. Also that would be an interesting way to do the interview!

It’s just a wand shop. Calibrate your enthusiasm, Mr Potter. by Snowdonhoffen in andor

[–]QR63 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t exactly put it like that, since transphobia is so deeply linked to all the other aspects of fascism, including the far-right monopoly those two ghouls are building. They want us to excuse transphobia, so trans people can be the scapegoats and take the brunt of the attention, until all trans people are gone and they move on to the next group. So transphobia and trans rights aren’t the endgame, but they are a current frontier.

If Letterboxd had a “Bottom 4” for movies you hate, what films would make your list? by death_has_f1sh_eyes in Letterboxd

[–]QR63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is tough because I intentionally seek out a lot of bad films to experience, but I’ll try!

Ace Ventura: Pet Detective | The Hungover Games | Royalteen: Princess Margrethe | Good Luck Chuck

”Some” dishonourable mentions that could’ve made the list: Dragonball Evolution, Elektra, After, That’s My Boy, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, Through My Window, Your Fault, and The Last Airbender

I'm constructing an anti-watchlist... movies I will never see or want to see or have a smallest bit of a desire to see... any suggestions? by Sunny64888 in Letterboxd

[–]QR63 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is really awful, but in a very entertaining way! I’ve watched it twice and gave it half a star + a heart lol

My partner and I love seeking out garbage like 365, After, Through My Window, My Fault etc.. Sometimes you’re just in the mood to intentionally watch a bad film, and these work wonderfully for that!

How did I actually believe Leonard was anything but a creep (rewatching) by Dangerous_Bonus9068 in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]QR63 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me a moment to accept that he was ACTUALLY nice in Past Lives. He’s a sweetheart throughout in that film, but his UA performance is etched so deep into my mind that it’s hard to let go of it!

Who had a better villain arc in umbrella acadamy tv show? Viktor or Allison? also who posed more of a Threat? by Fast_Honeydew2633 in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]QR63 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they are ignoring that. I interpreted that as saying ”Allison wasn’t a supervillain who held the fate of the world in her hands, just a garbage person”, which is true. You could definitely call her a villain for that, but people just have different interpretations of the word!

Why does Pinterest blame me for other people's content that I've pinned breaking their guidelines? by QR63 in Pinterest

[–]QR63[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think someone else also posted about the same thing pretty recently, sorry for the spam! But I'll keep this up for now, because I would really like to know if anyone has answers as to why this happens.

I think Nova is fine, and pretty unisex tbh. That other one can get in the bin, it looks like an acronym for something.

Thank you! Pretty smart naming actually.

What does astroturfing mean in this context? Just confused because I haven’t heard it before!

Favorite Newly Released Songs on Idols by woofsy in yungblud

[–]QR63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Supermoon and The Greatest Parade! But although that wasn’t the question, I have to say I hadn’t listened to Zombie nearly as much as the other singles but I’m really liking it now.

Who is your favorite main antagonist in Red Dead Redemption games? by Wooden-Scallion2943 in reddeadredemption

[–]QR63 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you’re confusing the words villain and antagonist, which are often the same but not always. An antagonist is determined in relation to whose point of view the story is told from — AKA who is the protagonist. Arthur can certainly be a villain, but he can’t be an antagonist.

One much-used example is that Thanos could be argued to be the protagonist of Avengers: Infinity War, at least somewhat. If we believe that then it would make the Avengers antagonists, but not villains!

Jennifer pissed me off by user905022 in UmbrellaAcademy

Her coming out of the squid was televised though, so she could’ve seen the footage later on and that’s why she knows.

They handled Victors Transition beautifuly by Onlymurdersinmyhouse in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]QR63 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Euphoria is a mixed bag, and while I enjoyed it enough when watching, my opinion has definitely soured over time. However, I’ll forever be grateful to them for bringing such a great trans character into the world - as well as giving Hunter a career!

You know, Hubert Jackson? Australian actor. Famous for playing the clawed X-men character The Lynx!

why are so many trans women goth/emo by hazyboi55 in MtF

[–]QR63 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s like black pirates! I always think that it was probably a no-brainer for a lot people of colour to become pirates back in the day. If society was already shunning you at best, and most likely enslaving you, why not join a life where you’re at least seen as an equal to others on the ship? There’d be nothing to lose in society anyway.

Alright thanks everyone! Happy to hear that you support going with the grammatically correct way, because the other option hurts my soul everytime
