Could I ask why you hate Boruto? Idc for him either but what do you dislike about him?
my dislike for boruto as a character mostly stems from my dislike of the next generation canon in general. initially I found him cute and I thought his bratty/sulky behavior was any interesting issue for Naruto to deal with post canon. like it's an interesting source of conflict for naruto's life long dream of becoming hokage to finally come true but the reality of being hokage strains his relationship with his son, especially because naruto grew up without a father of his own and therefore has no clear touch point for a father-son relationship.
however, because the stakes in the naruto canon were already way past reasonable and naruto was ridiculously overpowered at 17, boruto the character necessarily suffers from the plot of boruto the story being too convoluted and nonsensical. what interesting could the audience possibly have in him as a protagonist when his storylines are a continuation of the hyperpowered nonsense plaguing later chapters of the naruto canon and his only major character motivation is beefing with his dad who works too much?
she's neither a paradox nor a threat. she's simply a conservative woman achieving success through the opportunities afforded to her by decades of progressive, feminist advocacy while cosplaying a 'traditional' lifestyle. most feminist women were and are wives and mothers and hannah neeleman's success as a wife, mother, and business woman could only ever exist post-20th century feminism.
also, you simply do not know how she personally feels about her current life or giving up her ballet career. for as controversial the profile on her was, there was enough object descriptions of her daily life and behavior to indicate that she is, in fact, not happy. it's extremely presumptuous to assert that giving up her career because her husband wanted to start a hobby farm with his daddy's money didn't ruin her life because she has major financial, personal, and religious interests in portraying her life as happy and perfect regardless of her true feelings.
it really irks me how men addicted to sports betting are treated like poor helpless victims of a corrupt industry who can’t help but blow their entire salary on a parlay about a dbacks spring training game but women who overspend on lattes or clothes or blind boxes are stupid and evil and everything wrong with capitalism, whose “overconsumption” is noboby’s fault but their own. ignoring that they are also preyed upon by influencers and corporations.
like to be clear i think neither are blameless, but both are somewhat taken advantage of. i just hate that men are given a way more generous interpretation of their situation when women are criticized much more harshly for analagous behavior.
sometimes i find myself missing what could’ve been.
the horrors persist but so do I
Is there a character you hate in Naruto? Like genuinely hate
not really. I don't really 'hate' fictional characters. however I'm certainly indifferent to many, many, many of the characters in naruto, especially those introduced in the later chapters.
I do hate how long the story stretched out because I think the need to continuously increase the stakes ultimately undermined many of the central themes and main character arcs. most of naruto is about succeeding though perseverance, hard work, and love, but when you get to the later chapters is just about naruto and sasuke getting mega power ups because they were born unique and special to keep the plot moving.
for this reason, I really don't care for basically anything involving the Ōtsutsuki clan, even though fighting Kaguya fulfilled sakura's series long character arc to stand with naruto and sasuke in battle because there's just no reason for any of these characters to be battling an alien goddess. It's just too much!!
This is about your "overweight woman" tweet post. I tend to agree with you, however. I have nearly identical proportions to the woman in the pic, and I've had a doctor suggest GLP-1s to me. I don't know, the doctors seem to think that carrying any body fat is a recipe for inflammation and metabolic disease, which I agree that "excess" body fat is certainly a recipe for, but. It's very difficult to judge on my own, as I personally don't have a medical degree, and those with medical degrees (at least ones I've encountered) are extremely averse to body fat. I don't know if I really have a point here or if I'm just complaining about that doctor tbh
I am not a doctor and I tend to be deferential to doctors regarding medial advice and recommendations. HOWEVER, doctors are also just people with their own biases and blinds spots that impact their judgement. It is well documented that weight and body fat in general are a common biases that doctors, particularly doctors who do not specialize in nutrition and diet, have that impacts the reliability of their medical advice.
Based on my own research and understanding, my lay opinion is that body fat provides both benefits and risks to individual people depending on how much body fat they have and how they carry it. Generally, women tend to both carry and require a higher percentage of body fat than men. Unfortunately, there is a persistent cultural expectation that 'healthy' women should be thin and a lot of the weight and diet advice that doctors rely on is based on medical research on men with limited consideration of women.
I don't know you or your doctor so I can't say whether the recommendation for a GLP-1 was based on a genuine health concern or just bias seeming into medical advice. My recommendation for anyone in this situation would be to ask follow up questions such as "what is your determination that I'm carrying excess body fat based on?" and "Is there any indication that I'm experiencing inflammation or metabolic disease?" I think the best way to potential combat bias with your doctors is to alway make sure that their advice is specific to you and your health and not just generic advice based on on their general understanding of what 'healthy' looks like.
