I suspect your post will not age well. Just like comments made years ago why black people and white people should be separate. Why gay people should be condemned to less rights. Why women shouldn’t have credit cards absent a man’s approval....

...this issue, honestly, is quite stupid. It comes down to treating people

Look at the comments by Radcliffe and the comments by Rowling, and tell me which is the more reasoned response by a happier person.

Beyond the hatefulness of her views, it makes her look really, really bad to be so petty and vicious toward these grown-up kid actors who are by all accounts and appearances, really great people, in spite of all the show business weirdness they must have encountered

It’s almost shocking how well-adjusted the adults the Harry Potter child stars grew up to be are, even beyond the “big 3" of Daniel, Emma and Rupert.

But I’d say season 6 or even 7 was best for DS9.

Some were feeling a little uneasy about the Rogue/Magneto romance (the show doesn’t do it any favors by basically explaining Erik was a groomer!), but with that out of the way, Rogue has really been able to cut loose. Totally agree about looking beyond Wolverine. The show has done right by many of the other team member

Watching ‘X-Men ‘97' now is a slightly weird experience for me. I was a kid when I watched the original series, and didn’t know I was queer or neurodivergent. Now I’ve grown up and learned both those things about myself, and the whole “otherness” theme of the show is hitting in a completely new way.

The early X-Men films were also coming out shortly after Batman & Robin, which was probably the most “comic book-y” movie since the 70s Superman movies, and was loathed by both critics and fans. So I don’t blame people back then from going “okay, we want to pivot hard away from some of the wackier aspects of the

Thank you for catching this, dumb mistake on my part (it’s the most chilling line from the first episode!), has now been fixed

Tribalism is ingrained in the human condition. It served an important evolutionary purpose which humans no longer require in order to succeed as a species. I find it troubling how many think that “Separate but equal’ is a viable option for society. Historically it has never worked. Not one time. People believing that

Correct. Which is nuts. 

Aren’t the final 3 episodes titled “Tolerance is Extinction” parts 1-3?

Every right-wing blowhard says some variation of ‘If someone can say they’re a gender, then I’m x’ and think it’s the most mind-blowing, Voltairian, definitive takedown of modern gender ideas and the greatest piece of satire that the world has ever seen, when instead it merely demonstrates why there aren’t more

Those responsible for canceling the cancellation special have been canceled.

God, Paramount is just setting fire to the whole Trek franchise all of a sudden, huh? Discovery is cancelled (it was not intended as the final season, though some last-minute reshoots in the last episode were done to make the ending more conclusive) Lower Decks is cancelled, Prodigy is cancelled and shipped off to

“We live on a spaceship! Nobody is dying from a spear wound!”

BOOOO!

That may be less Rogue’s ostensible power level and more the kind of story being told now, and the intended audience. The Saban cartoon from the 90s was bloodless in the way GI Joe and Ninja Turtles was, all lasers and exploding robots with few to no depictions of actual physical harm on human beings, aside from

I was floored after that episode. Just sat there in silence.

I dream of a world where that guy can have a job and grown-ass adults choose not to read his work instead of whining about it.
