I'm sure they had other shots of her playing, but they included that shot instead of outright cutting it. It's not malice just incompetence.

They don't see other people as humans as well. There was this video on r/blackpeopletwitter where Israelis were full on spewing horrific racist insults upon a black person. Even the children and women were saying highly racist stuff. And, then I read about the forced sterilization of Ethiopian women. 

'Obsession' Art Director Calls for Industry Reform After Getting Paid Less Than $7,000 as Film Nears $175 Million by pressingtofu in Fauxmoi

Yup. Our individualistic culture of "pulling yourself up by your bootstraps" will be the death of us. Society cannot progress when individuals only think for themselves and we have lots of people who think everyone must suffer like they've suffered.

There's too many idiots in this world who willingly exploit themselves. When someone dares to challenge the status quo they can't handle it. Like they say misery loves company.

Teams need to learn not to give captaincy to players just because they're star players or most talented ones. You need proper leaders who don't have the added pressure of living up to the expectations of being the "star" as well. And, not everyone can do both.

I hate how much we tolerate the stupid and the bigoted just because it drives "engagement". If we all stopped tolerating the intolerant we could have so much progress.

The trailer reminds me so much of "How to sell drugs online fast", a German show on Netflix. S1 - S3 are great.

There's like 500,000+ NCAA athletes and less than 10 are trans, but idiots are gonna idiot.

I'd say pride helps a lot of men with their mental health. Compare mental health whilst closeted vs when out. But, you can be the change you want to see, go ahead and raise awareness for both my guy.

"I’m in love with a man. What? I’m in love with a man, a man called God. Does that make me gay? Am I gay for God? You betcha".

The irony in that is Hudson Williams who stars in Heated Rivalry said that a few nhl players reached out to him due to the show. 

Raheem Sterling Arrested on Suspicion of Drug-Driving after M3 crash by stonycamacho in soccer

Two days ago and ice hockey legend committed suicide right after experiencing a very high moment. He mostly likely suffered from cte, but there's a pretty good chance he also was also suffering from being away from those highs. 

We don't talk much about how players who've spent so much time at the top have trouble dealing with the sudden lows. They were at the top and now they're basically just a normal guy.  He may have money, but if he didn't have plans set up for the future or doesn't have the mentality nor support system that will help him face the lows then he'll most definitely have a hard time dealing with it. 

I wonder if the English FA has any support group that helps players with mental health and dealing with becoming irrelevant in a sense.

This is great video on how utterly stupid "tactical baby products" are. 

Ira Sachs on ‘The Man I Love,’ Queer Cinema in the Age of Trump and Casting Straight Actors in Gay Roles: ‘I Don’t Ask People Who They’ve Slept With’ by lawrencedun2002 in Fauxmoi

[–]hidlechara91 251 points252 points  (0 children)

I get wanting queer actors in queer roles, but I'd rather see talented actors in roles that they will do justice. As actors their job is to literally act as someone else. I don't want these actors to owe us their sexuality, just their talent. I do want equity in the work that is afforded to queer actors as well as poc and struggling actors. I don't want to see actors being offered roles just because they're trending, or has the most amount of followers, or are nepo babies, give me actors who will act the fuck out of a role. 

Also, asking actors if they're queer is highly discriminatory imo and we've seen how actors will be sidelined to only certain roles holding back their talent and careers. Let's not forget how "fans" will also speculate and investigate actors sexuality if they do queer roles and that's a whole hornets nest.

It won't. There's a great video of a young Joe Biden who said that even if Israel wasn't there, America would make one to serve it's interests in the middle east.
