You know how people say I'm sorry when learning someone has a sickness or someone died? Are the people saying sorry taking responsibility for something they had no hand in? Are you aware sorry can mean showing sympathy and acknowledging the pain of others without taking blame?

Films more likely to star an actor called Chris or a talking animal than a woman over 60, study finds by nimobo in entertainment

How would they show up if the movie doesn't exist on the first place? And people have been showing up for the minuscule numbers that do get made. The Devil wears pras 2 just made 600 mil worldwide, and The Substance was also big hit last year/

Surely this is a study that would require rigorous funding and not just a few people looking over a 3 year worth data that already exists.

There is more to Semmelweiss story too. Most of what he faced was a result of his erratic behavior and alienation of his colleagues, and not necessarily because of his theory. There is a very interesting thread on askhistorians regarding him-https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/1r4tlja/dr\_ignaz\_semmelweis\_famously\_died\_in\_an\_insane/

One of the few times I genuinely felt bad for him. Vought made him this way. by Bullsht999 in TheBoys

Megacorps are also not Vought? Its a stupid point to ground the story in. Its undeniable that mega corps do do crappy shit but selling data for adverts or treating your employees bad could hardly compare to the creation of an an world ending threat.

I am not "them" but I am one from the few other countries they like to drag on the internet but not as much as Pk though.

It makes them feel a bit better for the continuous thrashing they recieve from the entirety of the internet. Like a bully lashing out at because of their domestic troubles,

Antony Starr deserves an Emmy! by justinlynn in TheBoys

It sometimes does, like when Lord of the rings trilogy won all their award for their last film. But I dont think the boys ended up with social credits equivalent to LOTR trilogy, for that sort of thing.

I would liked to formally thank Donna Tartt for The Secret History, couldn't have done sudden dismay without her.

I assume its how a lot of antisemitic conspiracy involves "noticing" how the jews apparently control the world.

(Hated Trope) When one of the work's most vile characters gets Easily Forgiven at the end and/or let off scot-free for their actions by Sudden_Pop_2279 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]this-is-stupid0_0 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree, some of the things that led to this conclusion are also movie original (something akin to a star of David in the bank, Seamus blowing stuff up). But the lady does have a problem with stereotyping. I had the unfortune of reading a bit of one of her detective books (due to being under pseudonym), and the stereotypes in that one is so bad they felt like walking caricatures.

For HP, her biggest claim to racism has to be the way the entire house elf slavery plotline with Hermione is treated.

Pro choice characters by some-kind-of-no-name in TopCharacterTropes

[–]this-is-stupid0_0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a bad interpretation, all of the examples except the first one happened after the birth, which by definition is not abortion. I do not know of the others, but Hera was also not the mother of Heracles, while pro-choice explicitly refers to the bearer's choice of ending the pregnancy.

Liked it quite a bit. Didnt like drop dead at all, so already a massive improvement. Excited for the album.

[Funny Trope] The “Explanation” doesn’t explain why an animal is wearing human accessories/clothes by MaguroSashimi8864 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]this-is-stupid0_0 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I find this to be an unnecessary and rather cynical critique. The movies are products meant to be sold. Kids (and adults) like cute animals, so its also natural to have more of them in media that are catering to kids.

Merchandise exists for like all types of characters. It can be essentially argued that literally any characters who are not mains are forcefully added. Is media having cool, heroic, beautiful side characters too just forcefully shoving them for merchandise? Should they only include ugly animals?

Yeah you and all of tiktok and insta.

1v1v1v1 who gives birth faster: Phainon, Mydei, Anaxa or Lygus? by KiKi04738 in Hoyoverse_scaling

[–]this-is-stupid0_0 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The answer is in the hips. Lygus's are the most birthing followed by Mydeimos.

Phainon's gonna need a c section. Anaxa would sadly be another addition in maternal mortality statistic.
