To everyone who says this was meaningless, I posted this in the private forum early on:

Having the amount of perseverance necessary to get through a task this long and tedious without giving up is rare. And impressive.

I wonder what you’d think of the original anime.
My guts say you’ll hate it.

In your rush to condemn the “SJW Outrage Machine,” you clearly skipped over the article. The vast majority of it concerns the pacing, the lack of narrative and character development, over-reliance upon scenery, and a few other issue that have absolutely nothing to do with the casting controversy.

But way to prove that…

No. The soundtrack was literally impossible to pay attention to.

Let’s face it this movie was going to be underwhelming from the start. Even with the whitewashing and the movie’s Sisyphean effort to try and handwave it away with “She’s Japanese but she’s in a white person’s body.” that still comes off as offensive, it’s a generic revenge story that plays like GitS’ greatest hits…

Honestly, I agree that the high road is the preferable route, but the republicans continue to show themselves unfit to rule and use their halting of democratic initiatives to garner support for their own campaigns. Allowing the reps to run roughshod through these tactics has led to them controlling the White House,…

Just a friendly reminder that we had 33 hearings into Benghazi and millions of dollars spent over several years which turned up nothing. Now they’re circling the wagons to protect foreign intervention into our election (which all intelligence agencies agree happened). Republican hypocrisy knows no bounds.

There’s always a bit of a struggle: galleries realize they can be cold, intimidating, and unfriendly to the general public, and they really do try to run accessibility programs and encourage engagement from everyone. I’ve been to some institutions where the security staff are particularly forward, almost like a…

There really should have been some sort of spiked mechanism to pop up and break the kid’s fall to keep him away from the painting. For his own safety, you see.

I mean, they have to assign a value to insure it, right? A company isn’t going to be like, “Yes, that’s worth infinity dollars.” :P

They sure can. Not so much in the “It’s 7:34, time to get up” sense, but in the “The sun is coming through the window in the bathroom, it’s time to get up” sense. Or the “I gotta pee! I gotta pee! I gotta pee!” sense.

And it’s not because the computer can’t handle it, it’s simply to make people upgrade.. a super simple feature is only available for newer macs.

It should be noted that this is limited to newer macs. My 2010 iMac did not get Night Shift.

It’s because it’s so dismissive. Their entire strategy is based around being dismissive of any counterpoints or opponents. “That’s sad.” “Fake news.” “Trump didn’t touch you, get over it.”

That and calling anyone who disagrees with them hysterical. It straight up gives me the vapors. It’s interesting seeing Koppel, long a terror of the smug, criminal, or dishonest, interacting with Hannity. I think Koppel was deliberately gentle here, as it makes Hannity look like even more of an ass. This is also a…

Well, you know the saying: You can tell a bigot, but you can’t tell them much.

If the publisher’s description is accurate, the book isn’t even about a trans person, but a gender-nonconforming one. I doubt the bigots understand that or care to understand.

Tami is the Chad of girl names.

No, a book cannot cause someone to become gay. It might, however, help someone to internally acknowledge that they are gay, and thus have more self-acceptance, more self-esteem, and a greater sense of security.
