As did I, as a former Vespa owner who wore a nice suit whilst riding around town I was 100% on board.

The difference between objectification and empowerment is pretty easy, who’s doing it that said I’m going to take at face value your intent to support a victim of harassment but there’s some loaded language in here that’s leaving it so I’m just going to back away from this comment hands raised. I’d start by exploring…

I would argue that they should call out the bullshit they helped create. You spill the lego on the floor you help pick it up. So if that means calling them disgusting pigs, call them disgusting pigs. That is what a segment of them are.

Which literally happened when Playboy briefly removed nudity from their magazine so this is the perfect analogy.

“Nerds” were always vocally pervy but it was just written off. I’m old enough that by the time this show came on the air originally I was already too old for their target demo. I’m closer to Sessler’s age than the audience of the time’s age. The thing is, back in “the day” it was kids being stupid kids which could be…

Good for G4 elevating her message but ultimately I feel the world G4 left is gone and the space it used to occupy no longer exists. The post GG community is stratified and there’s a lot less willingness to put up with crap we used to put up with (and shouldn’t have in retrospect).

Fair points, I think we’re setting up a second season where there’s a reckoning with the Hutts (Fett even lays it out, they’d rather have their enemies fighting). It’s sad to see the Tuskens done dirty like that after decades of being portrayed so negatively except for a in a handful of secondary media but hopefully…

It was filmed at the CBC in Toronto. It was a big part of our childhood in Canada and did make its way down to the US.

Personally (as someone who grew up reading the X-Men in the 80s and had already tapped out by the mid 90s) it really doesn’t click with me. That said, not saying it’s bad, it’s just not for me and all things are not for everyone.

To be fair, I can think of at least two current Marvel actors who can’t keep their mouth shut and keep accidentally leaking details so... kudos to him for being a cut above his successors.

I mean, it’s kind of been getting called out by various people for decades it’s just he has a higher profile and a wider platform than most of those calling it out.

To be fair, she didn’t design them to look like that in the movie. She did describe them like that in the book but no one along the line said “hey Joe, you know, this is pretty racist right here” (and hence the problem with ALL of her material since I mean look at the issues around Pottermore and how it handles…

This really doesn’t shock me at all sadly.

The one series I think would adapt really well is the Bridge trilogy because I really feel we’re living it right now.

Huh, well that sounds like Hollywood’s previous Johnny Mnemonic level of messing with the source material. Glad it didn’t pan out, I’ll be curious how The Peripheral turns out. I’m actually quite excited about Tim Miller developing an adaptation as you only approach something like Deadpool with that level of…

Wait what about a Neuromancer adaptation?! I’ve never seen or head of this (and it sounds like that may be for the best).

They don’t identify them in the letter but over the years there have been a few people let go (and at least one I can think of that’s known for toxic behaviour) so not sure who it could be. It would seem, while not saints, at least Bungie is taking this feedback seriously and have tried to act in a manner better than…

They seem to be doing a much better job at responding to these allegations than their former publisher. Hopefully they clean house appropriately and address the systemic issues.

This is a case where it’s literally not click bait, if you read the article she reported an executive for harassing her and the executive was fired. Yes they do use click bait titles a LOT but it doesn’t help if you get annoyed with them when it’s a legitimate title and not some kind of bait and click.

As someone who works if finance, this made me laugh very hard and for a very long time. Sure friend, you keep telling yourself that.
