You’re missing an important layer to this insanity: Trombetti’s mother died of Covid-19
I mean, that’s the problem. “Rumours”. You have people interpreting one of the most common lighting post-production techniques as “literal black erasure” and saying so on the internet like that’s a thing. That’s not how this works.
no, it won’t. it’s called “color correction” and it’s an essential part of the film industry. people’s skin appears different in different lighting conditions, and it’s frequently the case that the lighting they want for the scene does not actually match the lighting conditions in which the scene was shot. thus, it…
If they actually found anything specific, Fisher would be trumpeting it off the goddamn rooftops right now.
The A.V. Club
Man, some people really, really hate Joss Whedon. I'm not even talking about Ray Fushet, who at least knows the guy IRL. I'm talking about random Internet people. What's up there? What did he do?
A>E is “Accountability>Entertainment”. As far as I know it’s not caught on outside of this story.
H.R. Ginger. What a soulless bastard!
I really liked the Buffy and Angel TV shows.
Remedial action, along with the vagueness of Fisher’s accusations could mean anything. It could be that Whedon was abusive to such a level that the remedial action was to get him off that HBO Max series. It could also be that Fisher’s complaint was limited to something Geoff Johns said and the action was to just read…
You can’t possibly be serious? Testosterone (really androgens in general) affects all of that and more. This is common knowledge. The causal link is well established. It has been demonstrated time and time again that average men and older teenage boys can run circles around even the most elite female athletes at…
Yet the best soccer teams of adult women are regularly beaten by teams made up of teen boys
Skeletal structure is also a big factor in why men in general have an advantage over women in sports. Add in longer strides, greater reach, more grip strength, higher muscle mass, greater heart and lung capacity, etc. and there is no way that women can win if sports go mixed-sex. Testosterone levels are brought up…
Man, there’s so much weirdness that you can add to that enigma list: the fact she subtly distances herself from the offshoot Hare Krishna cult yet still had campaign staffers from said cult, or the foreign policy that she centered on minimizing US casualties in conflict zones- interestingly leaving the door open to…
The problem is that testosterone permanently increases bone and muscle density. Since trans women got that juice starting in vitro, it is an unfair advantage - and more so if they transitioned after puberty. HRT helps in that it eliminates the “performance enhancement” aspect of ongoing testosterone production, but it…
I don’t have definitive answers to any of your questions. I just know that it doesn’t make you a transphobe to question the feasibility of using chemical means to level the playing field between cis and trans women. Olympic weightlifting medals can be won and lost by a kilo’s weight — a tiny fraction of the total…
I can’t imagine what sort of chemical wizardry it would take to make it fair for Lasha Talakhadze to compete against female weightlifters. He can throw 580 lbs over his head.
I’m ok, thanks. But you realize, your comment is EXACTLY my response to a lot of the other comments in this article.
hey everybody! watch me say something i’m sure to instantly regret!
