the problem with movie remakes is that they always remake something that was already good, meaning at worst you ruin it and at best your remake is largely redundant. to make a truly good remake you need to start with source material that is absolute dogwater. ignore the pull of nostalgia. redeem the sins of moviemaking past.

All computer safety ever for the past 30 odd years: "if you go on the internet — especially if you're under 18 — lie about everything. Lie about your name. Lie about your age. Give as little information away about yourself as you possibly can. Obfuscate, falsify, and omit anything and everything as otherwise They Will Get Your Ass. Actually, avoid it in the first place if you can altogether."

All computer safety(?) since like 2020: "it's imperative we make every 8 year old scan a passport before letting them use their LeapFrog™️. Always-on connectivity required."

The greatest drawing of a dog was also done in the 1700s by a Japanese artist - Nagasawa Rosetsu.

Every time I see bullshit about women never EVER being able to beat men in any sport, I think about how in martial arts classes I, a cis woman, 5' 8" and 145 pounds, regularly beat the tar out of 6' 2" 230 pound cis dude weightlifters. One guy ragequit class. He came in cocky as hell and talking the standard bs line about how a woman simply never could beat a man in a fight because they're physically weaker and our instructor was like. Okay. Put the pads on you're sparring her. Yes, her, the one 4" shorter and 100 pounds lighter than you.

It wasn't close I beat the pants off that man, and others like him. I did it more than once. Some guys got humble and stayed. One guy got angry and stormed out.

And I think about that every fuck damn time I hear that bullshit, which seems to be all the fuck over the place these days. Oh, women are just fragile little soft delicate flower creatures who can't do ANYTHING and could NEVER compete with big strong manly muscular strong MEN.

I think about driving that dude into the mats and seeing the brutal reality of this big dude's misogany meet the realization that a woman was beating his ass literally that second, that none of his strength could stop the fact that I'd just hip thrown him facefirst into the mats and that had I actually connected with the axe kick to his neck I would have crushed a bunch of important shit and he could not stop me, and his whole psyche collapsing like a dying star in that moment.

Anyway, don't ever fall for it, ladies, and there's absolutely no goddamn reason to get your knickers in a twist about trans people in sports.

[systlin]

Yes. This. Correct.

The reason you hear so much about how women COULD NOT POSSIBLY EVER DEFEND THEMSELVES OR GO AGAINST MEN IN SPORT is twofold.

Socializes women to THINK that this is impossible and to keep them from developing self-assurance in their own physical abilities.

To make shitty dudes feel better about themselves.

It's all bullshit, the current trans panic is horseshit, a 17 year old girl named Jackie Mitchell struck out both Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig and dudes threw a tantrum over it, don't ever buy a fucking word of any of this horse shit.

academic dishonesty is not something you can spin as moral lol i do not want to share a career field let alone a social sphere with a bunch of chatgpt using ass bitches

[medusadyke]

"you're just scared your diploma is going to devalue" i'm afraid you dumb bitches are going to become my colleagues and drag social services to hell

I'm afraid they'll become scientists and data that lives depend on will turn out to be wrong - and people will die.

I'm afraid they'll become engineers and sign off on bridge designs that collapse - and people will die.

I'm afraid they'll become medical professionals who don't know what they're doing - and people will die.

The assumption that academic dishonesty is okay is rooted in the idea that what you're learning to do doesn't matter.

omg no but imagine a star wars game set in the clone wars.

Like, you're one of the many nameless jedi or clones out fighting in countless wars and your choices affect whether your friends around you survive each battle and stuff, so you grow to love and care about the people you're fighting side by side with as the jedi and clones did in the clone wars and all the while you're remembering that at some point order 66 will happen

And then when it does, you don't realise it's happening, there's no cutscene, no audio that you would hear unless you're paying that close attention, you think you're on a normal mission, you're fighting one of the many battles that you've been in this entire game, and suddenly your friends are firing

Whether you survive or not depends on how you respond and whether you realise they're aiming for you. Also would be so cool that if you die, you get a different end cutscene to if you survive, and that it's not one of those things where if you die it's a 'respawn' thing, just a quiet end of the game where you are just one of the thousands of people who died when Palpatine gave the order

it would also be great if the game randomised it to be at some point in the last act but never the same time so when you play through it again, you're still left in the dark, never knowing when your friends will turn on you

I think it'd be really fun :)
