The Kingpin and Daredevil in this continuity are the same Kingpin and Daredevil that just got trashed by Marvel executives for being terrible. So don’t expect a lot of consistency there.

The idea that a crooked real estate mogul in at least his 50s could take on a fully-trained ninja in his prime was always hilarious. The fight in season’s finale ended quickly. But it’s a vibe. They worked hard to build a vibe over three seasons about this particular Kingpin, and Disney came along and said “Hey what…

It’s a suit. He’s slimmed down quite a bit for his training for Daredevil: Born Again. But I’m talking about the character’s weight. It looks silly. Netflix worked very hard to get you to take this man seriously, and now they’re throwing that out.

Ah, still going with silly ultra-fat-suit Kingpin, and not the sophisticated Wilson Fisk of Netflix Daredevil. Disappointing. I was hoping they’d reverse course on that a little.

Hank was so Republican when he shook George Bush’s hand and felt the handshake was too weak, he decided not to vote at all rather than vote for anyone else and fled to Mexico for the day. He did come back and (it’s implied) voted for Bush anyway, but that’s not a Hank Hill who belongs in today’s American landscape.…

The strikes have bought them a lot of time.

Ah, that’s just someone in props saying, “I wonder if I can get away with this.”

Hold on - there are Lupin the Third references in the first movie? You might have said the only thing that could make me interested in seeing it.

So when this artist was sculpting for hours and hours and hours did no one look at it and say, “He’s too white”?

When people put their kids in dangerous situations, CPS gets involved, and the kids might get taken out of the home and the parents might be required to take parenting classes and shape up to get them back. This changes nothing about the autonomy of the parents as individuals able to make their own decisions. It…

Palestinians need medical supplies and Israel wants its hostages back. Seems like a pretty simple trade.

Conservatorships are meant to be a nuclear option - to make life decisions (financial and medical) for someone who has advanced dementia, severe brain trauma, or is in a coma. Basically, people can’t reliably say the words ‘yes’ and ‘no’ to questions. Anywhere below that, you technically have the right to ruin your…

I’m just going to throw out the idea that if she wasn’t an attractive, blond female millionaire no one would give a shit if she gets a therapist or not. No one would be “concerned” for her.

Plenty of people are not okay, but they don’t have legal restrictions put on their movements. As long as she doesn’t set her house on fire or die a drug overdose, it’s fine. It’s all fine.

I listened to a podcast about conservatorships and Britney’s in particular and holy shit does this woman deserve a break. She can do whatever she wants for the rest of her life. (The podcast is called “Toxic”)

... these people got their jobs based on their looks.

Are the rest of my Regency period historical fiction homies EXCITED ABOUT THIS?!?!

“Based on” is a pretty important distinction here.

Great, let’s see how the bending that’s impossible to perform in real life looks.

This is gonna sound crazy but a lot of good teachers quit because of lack of Covid protocols or restrictions on what they could teach, and this is the result.
