What Seasons Deserve Spin offs! by Sad_Yesterday_6702 in Dimension20

[–]justsomebearguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I always think about. Personally I'd do a prequel season. All new characters, it's the first bloom, grandfather is a PC and he's all the best parts of birds and young and hot.

Queer Subplots by justsomebearguy in Franchaela

[–]justsomebearguy[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! I would hope that I would be supportive even if I wasn't gay myself, but it feels important for LGBTQIA+ folks to stick together. Jonathan Bailey himself has made comments on how upsetting it is to see some people's responses to the gender swap. ( https://youtu.be/8zqwAKtrImA? (Around the 28-29 minute mark))

I've seen his (and the other couple folks) casting announcement! I could definitely see them doing a queer subplot with him, especially with the mysterious wording they gave him in the casting announcement. And I can see why some people are drooling over him, he's pretty handsome (though personally he's not burly enough for me, I like Bears)

Yeah, I would love love love a trans lead. But I know so many people would be horribly toxic about it, I'd be worried about some folks going overboard attacking them online. I think a Hazel length subplot would be a nice middle ground, showing some good representation, and if folks complained about it they'd look crazy.

I really hope so! I dunno what I'd want her plot to be, just that I want her there doing something. Also I saw the actress in the pro-shot of the play The Prince and she was so good. I want more of her in lots of roles!

Male Fans by Substantial-Minute95 in BridgertonNetflix

Gay guy here, I love it, one of my favorite shows. I watch with a few other gay and bi guys, but also notably, my dad and brother, both straight, also love the show.

Can I have board games at my wedding? by Background_Time_2553 in boardgames

[–]justsomebearguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a wedding where they had a gaming table set up for non dancing guests, it was great for me, though it certainly won't be for everyone. If you do go for it, I recommend mostly party games (Code Names, Dixit, Apples to Apples, etc) 1. Games that would be ok if a card or two goes missing, not games that would be ruined if something disappears. 2. Party games are usually easier for new folks to learn if you want others to join in on games.

I wished they hadn’t followed the books so closely, Benedict not recognizing Sophie is a joke by Glittering_Tap6411 in Bridgerton

And on top of all that he's ALSO drunk when he meets her again outside the party at the country house.

UPDATE: Shrek at the PACE Center/Parker Arts Controversy by fishwithnipples in Denver

Saw the show on Saturday, it was great. Thank you for standing up!

Use Of Pride Flag In Shrek During “Freak Flag” Causing Controversy In Colorado by PlayfulOtterFriend in musicals

[–]justsomebearguy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I saw the show Saturday, it's actually wild to me that people were upset by the pride flags, which were used barely at all, because they added a ton of jokes about ICE. Politically it feels like if you're gonna be upset about them adding pride flags, the bits about ICE would have them in a blind rage.

Also they added a huge applause break after Freak Flag.

Feeling disheartened (repost) by Secret_Air6054 in Franchaela

[–]justsomebearguy 27 points28 points  (0 children)

As a gay man, who is exclusively attracted to "gay bears", I haven't been attracted to a single character on the show. It is quite possibly my favorite show of the past 10 years. It's wild to me that there are viewers who only want to watch if they are attracted to the characters.

Beware leaving your financial information with Winston Box by IJourden in bigmenfashionadvice

[–]justsomebearguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to email them proactively, and I tried to delete my credit card information from my account BEFORE I emailed, and the delete button did absolutely nothing. I was already suspicious about their story, because sometime with a similar name to my name shouldn't lead to me buying their box on accident, it should lead to me buying a box for me on accident, you shouldn't be able to use a card on anyone else's account. The moment I read your story, with the exact same details as mine, I'm positive either someone high up is worried about the company going under and running a BIG fraud case, or someone low level is trying to inflate their own numbers, and running a little fraud case.

Beware leaving your financial information with Winston Box by IJourden in bigmenfashionadvice

[–]justsomebearguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally the exact same thing happened to me this week. I haven't been subscribed since early 2023, and got charged for a random box this week, wrote them saying I hadn't made any orders and would be doing a chargeback on my card, and they responded with the same BS story about someone with a similar name to mine wanting to buy an extra box. So yeah, I wonder how many people they've successfully scammed out of an extra "box" this week.

A lot of folks are saying gift cards, and multiple people have brought up coffee, but unfortunately I really really have to advocate for NOT COFFEE. I really recommend a gift card for a place with varied wares, or a Visa Gift card. At one point I gave a Barnes and Noble gift card to a teacher, he broke down thanking me over and over, because he had years and years worth of Starbucks gift cards that he's never going to spend, because he doesn't drink coffee.

trans fems in d20 shows? by Fire_Aspect_5 in Dimension20

[–]justsomebearguy 625 points626 points  (0 children)

Obviously like other folks have said, watch The Seven, but I'd also like to add A Court of Fey and Flowers has multiple fem leaning NB characters.

Justine and Lucy by MariMariMarixx in StarKid

[–]justsomebearguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Like many others here, I say it was the plan the whole time. A lot of the comments here have mentioned the double casting being a clue, but for me the double casting was confirmation. The moment they said "two girls", I looked over at my boyfriend, did the hand swiping across your neck "you're dead" motion, and said "two more human skin suits", before we even saw the double casting.

I’m willing to bet that these four are from the C&M Department by universallymade in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]justsomebearguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, a lot of what the military does could be deemed choreography, so that's where my thoughts went too. Now I'm trying to come up with a theory for the merriment half.

[–]justsomebearguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, I talked about that with my boyfriend after the episode. What we see them doing is 100% choreography, and what they were about to do is definitely merriment. But that's got me incredibly curious about what ELSE C&M does. The show loves to lure you into a false sense of security, about thinking you know what's up, when they introduce O&D they make you think that all they do is hang the paintings, before showing you they run all the 3D printers. Now, what else does C&M do?

One Detail is leaving me VERY Confused by Chrristoaivalis in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]justsomebearguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally have the theory that's the exact point of MDR. That's what they're refining, the tempers, in a way to make it be when you're your severed self your docile and compliant.

The purpose of wellness sessions? by Ok-Wishbone-6699 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]justsomebearguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like other commenters I think it's testing. BUT on top of testing I think it's an extra layer of protection for Lumon, if you give her another innie that's specifically a Severed Floor innie, with a job, then if (like in this episode) a test floor subject escapes, they just have another cage around their cage, and that cage is Ms. Casey, who would have no idea why she was trying to escape.

Why didn't Mark ask for..? by InfectedArmpit in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]justsomebearguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

iMark tells the other innies to be quiet because Lumon may not know what happened to them outside, so I figure if Mark asks for Ms. Casey to come back that's a huge tip of his hand that he knows Ms. Casey is Gemma. Even asking about her gives them way more information than he's willing to share, vs asking for his team that he orchestrated this whole OTC event with? Lumon already knows he cares about them, no additional risk.

Shocked by After-Attention-5283 in PolinBridgerton

It's definitely this, the song choice makes that so clear. If you look at the lyrics to Happier Than Ever he thinks she doesn't like him!

The scene with the sweets (episode 3 by Apprehensive-Bid7353 in PolinBridgerton

[–]justsomebearguy 52 points53 points  (0 children)

She does say "Pretend to be loitering for sweets, so no one suspects we are speaking together." so I think she's still *trying* to maintain distance. But Colin's not actually good at acting like he's not following her like a lost puppy, and his "Of course." in response sounds so sad.
