I would kill for an adaptation of that just for the beautiful lighting and color palette alone.

“I don’t see anyone clamouring to put Rebel Wilson in this role, because shes the wrong suspension of disbelief.”

I MEAN DAMN, that is some white-hot truth right there.

Oh for sure there would’ve been complaints, just as there is the first umpteen-dozenty or so times someone different than the norm is cast...until there aren’t, and it becomes the new normal. I’m just saying, this could’ve been a big moment for all kinds of equality, and instead we got generic actress/model #23908.

I…

Gurl THANK YOU. Like, my disliking the casting does not effect your liking of it at all, I swear! I am still going to spend a dumb amount of money on every piece of merch I can get my fat hands on, CHILL.

There’s no rule stating that a buff woman is not extremely good-looking. I think it boils down to the fact that I’ve been waiting literally my entire life for this movie, and to have someone cast who kind of...feels wrong is a major issue for a lot of people. I mean obviously she catches infinitely more shit for this,…

Oh believe me, I have a lot of issues with Henry Cavill, and the whole DC movie universe at large. This was specifically a comment about Gal’s appearance, which is amazing in every way—it just would be really nice to see an equally amazing, really muscular woman play the role instead of having to pander to certain…

I actually really agree. I was really, really hoping a truly beastly woman would be cast, like someone that you could believe can (and has) gone toe-to-toe with Sueprman. I mean Gal Gadot has an absolutely amazing body, but she’s just...not who I pictured, not to mention her gross comments about Palestine.

I am so proud of all of you. I wish there had been some kind of action anywhere near me, but alas the life of an ex-pat...

Especially since, as an ex-pat to Sweden, I can confirm he’s full of shit. Even in our tiny little town in the middle of a forest, we had a center set up for unaccompanied minor refugees. It was an absolutely wrenching site—everyone had to walk directly past it on the way to the local zoo, so you couldn’t ignore it.

1:1 ratio is good. There’s benefits to bringing it pre-mixed (ready to go, you can immediately help yourself and others, etc) and making it as needed (fresh, just a bottle of Maalox if you’re searched--”I have a sensitive stomach, Officer!”, etc) so really it’s up to you. Just remember to shake the bottle of mix…

I would also recommend bringing Maalox or any aluminum hydroxide or magnesium hydroxide based antacid--mixed evenly with water, it’s a good way to counteract pepper spray in the eyes, and can also be used to rinse it out of the mouth too.

I’m an ex-pat to Sweden, and had a similar experience. It feels a bit though like Swedes in general are afraid to discipline their kids AT ALL though, because lawd Swedish children are incredibly rude.

...Which isn’t to say they SHOULD be spanked, it just seems there’s this weird disconnect where people think no…

My son’s school has started a thing where they watch a kids’ news program, but the program is translated from English to Swedish, and then the discussion afterward is...stilted, at best, because some things are just lost in the translation. Anyway, he came home today and completely broke down in tears because it was…

Osiyo, u-lv!

Ayyyyy osiyo/twanshi! I always like it when I see you in the comments, makes me feel good to see another NDN on Jez.

Honestly I am just so proud of all our peoples drawing a firm line in the sand, and finally, FINALLY, public opinion seems to be shifting a little bit in our direction. The only thing I ever regret…

She was literally praying, and that is it

It’s worth noting that this comes directly on the heels of a protestor having her arm literally blown off by a “non-lethal” grenade last week. She had to have what remained of it amputated just a couple days ago and remains in intensive care.

There’s another young warrior who was standing in front of the police line,…

You do realize that it was illegal for us to speak our own languages up until extremely recently, correct? We had to learn them in secret from our grandparents, and even then they would forget or choose not to speak because of the traumas of residential schools. My grandmother had her mouth washed out with lye soap in…

Osiyo/tawnshi sister! I have nothing of value to add to our BLISTERING post that I kind of want to frame and put on my wall, just get overly excited when I see another NDN on Jez. :D We should have some kind of special greeting, like some kind of cyber exchange of fry bread or something.

Just to add to your list, they REALLY need medical supplies for horses too—they’re getting shot with rubber bullets left and right, some even dying from their injuries.
