Fair enough. I should have realized that it was a fake name. Still don’t know that it was intentional, but she should be more careful.

Stop motion animation is animation. Do people argue otherwise? Because that seems absurd to me.

Maybe. Though Netflix and Hulu and HBO Max all have a good amount of prestige content plus a bunch of random movies you may want to watch.

surely the dwarves and the mirror are the primary tropes associated with the character.

(in fact the first full length animated movie period)

They were born the same month as my sister, so I always remember exactly how old they are. When they were 18ish, someone I worked with mentioned their and I immediately blurted out the right number before backpedaling and trying to explain that I didn’t know it on purpose.

Not one ever talks about Disney’s American Pie webcam scene ride!

Didn’t the person’s username have the word “girl” in it or something like that? Intentional misgendering is obviously not okay, but when you present yourself as a specific gender and then get called that gender, it’s pretty disingenuous to berate someone for not noticing the gender neutral pronouns in your bio.

Definitely seems similar to the practices that got Microsoft into antitrust trouble years ago. Though I guess it’s not super different from AT&T and T-Mobile are giving out subscriptions to streaming services with their phone plans.

Same. I’m sure it’s delightful, but there are a lot of great shows out there.

All the Kardashians own business that employ a lot of people.

Of course they don’t intend for people to unsubscribe. But if they give them very little reason to stick around, they will.

Sure. I get that. Just doesn’t seem like a very sustainable business model. Those shows and movies are expensive.

I thought I must be doing something wrong when I first logged in. I kept looking for the rest of the content.

Technically, you can get a “limited commercials” version of Paramount+ for $5.99, but yes, the no commercial version is a full $5 more.

I’m at a loss for why anyone would pay to subscribe for more than a month. I did a free trial so I could watch Wolfwalkers, On the Rocks, and Boys State and they were all varying levels of enjoyable. Caught Beastie Boys Story while I was there. But I was shocked to learn that they didn’t offer anything else. I believe…

Have you sampled Apple TV+? It’s a bit cheaper than Paramount, but outside of their still pretty paltry amount of original content and some Peanuts cartoons, there’s literally nothing. No back catalog at all. If you want to watch anything else, you have to rent it.

You’re lucky. Our guest spots required a guest pass that you had to get from the parking office.

Do you want sales figures of games featuring exclusively male protagonists vs exclusively female protagonists?

It seems logical to me that if white cisgender males prefer to play as white cisgender males
