Politics Why is it that conservatives double down on pedophilia adjacent representatives?
Seriously, what the fuck is with this object loyalty to their representatives and politicians? It's fucking weird. It's beyond a cult of personality. These people would drink their Kool-Aid and succumb to the stupid that is without any doubt. Why is it that their quote-unquote gotcha is that someone like Bill Clinton that everybody knew was in the list is on the list. They want him persecuted when they want anybody else like Donald Trump who has been listed more than a few hundred times in the recent releases of evidence.

Family & Friends My husband bought an out-of-service vending machine and filled it with my favorite drinks as a Christmas gift
I was pretty shocked, not gonna lie. I love it so much (I’m a huge Diet Dr Pepper drinker) and he also gifted me five rolls of quarters to use in it 😂 I wasn’t allowed in the garage for a week.

In National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation (1989), Clark Griswold can be seen fantasizing about a store clerk he met earlier in the film despite being married to Beverly D'Angelo. This is a reference to the fact he’s a fucking stupid idiot dumbass idiot stupid

TIL that a fictional language, Wenja, was created for Far Cry Primal by a team of linguists after Ubisoft deemed the 6,000 year old Proto-Indo-European to be too modern for the game's prehistoric setting.

Manchmal stört mich das bunt gemischte Casting bei vielen modernen Serien
Vorweg: Das hier hat nichts mit Rassismus zu tun.
Ich habe kein Problem mit Vielfalt in Serien, sondern mit Welten, die ihre eigenen Regeln nicht einhalten.
Gerade in Fantasy- und historisch angehauchten Stories sind Herkunft, Kultur und Machtverhältnisse oft wichtig. Im Casting wirken sie dann aber plötzlich völlig beliebig.
Das Problem dabei: Unterschiede zwischen Regionen/Völkern werden uns erzählt, aber nicht gezeigt.
Fremdsein und Abgrenzung sollen relevant sein, sind visuell aber kaum nachvollziehbar Entscheidungen wirken wie ein Statement von außen, nicht wie etwas, das aus der Welt selbst kommt.
The Witcher, the Great oder die Ringe der Macht sind gute Beispiele dafür. Bei the Witcher ist zum Beispiel Triss aus den nördlichen Königreichen, schon immer mit rotem Haar und blasser Haut dargestellt, plötzlich ein dunklerer Typ. Bei "the great" ist der dänische Botschafter und weitere teils politisch bedeutsame Personen mit klarer Herkunft plötzlich dunkelhäutig.
Komischerweise klappt Diversität problemlos, wenn sie konsequent gedacht ist: House of the Dragon (klar regional/familiär), frühes Game of Thrones, oder Serien wie The Sandman und Arcane, wo Herkunft schlicht keine Rolle spielt.
Mein Problem ist nicht Vielfalt.
Mein Problem ist, wenn eine Serie ihre eigene Welt nicht ernst nimmt und das Casting irgendwie aufgezwungen und unnatürlich wirkt, eben nicht zur Geschichte passt.
Um das klarzustellen: Das Problem gibt es auch in die andere Richtung. Es ist genauso störend, wenn Filme oder Serien klar in asiatischen, arabischen oder afrikanischen Kulturkreisen spielen und diese Rollen dann von weißen amerikanischen Schauspielern übernommen werden (Prince of Persia, Gods of Egypt, Ghost in the Shell usw.).
Beides ist für mich dasselbe Problem:
Wenn eine Geschichte kulturell oder historisch klar verortet ist, sollte das Casting diese Welt widerspiegeln. Egal ob durch Whitewashing oder durch beliebige Diversität - sobald das Casting die innere Logik der Welt bricht, leidet die Glaubwürdigkeit.

Discussion Before Battlefield 6 was released, I had imagined fighting on large maps in a no-HUD hardcore mode. But instead, the game turned into hopping around like rabbits on tiny maps, capturing flags, and it never progressed much beyond that. The real Battlefield experience should have been like BF1

Honestly? Had to go with DJ Cook imho, he has completely abandoned his main channel (DJ Cook) since a year ago now, starting criticising and hating to some YouTubers who’s just having fun and/or hasn’t done anything wrong for basically no reason, need I say more? Anyways, what about you guys? What YouTuber has had the biggest downfall ever???

Video James Cameron wanted to make "Avatar" in the 1990s, but the technology at the time did not allow it. He worked on this technology, particularly facial capture, an innovation that allows 100% of the performance to be captured.Here Zoé Saldaña performing with her deep emotions ''transcribed''.

SERIOUS POST Forced into marriage at 22. Now 24 with a toddler and preparing for NEET
Hey! I’m 24 years old. Because of certain circumstances and intense family pressure, I had to get married when I was around 22. It wasn’t something I was mentally prepared for, but backing out wasn’t an option. I have a son. He’ll turn 2 this February. I love him ... that’s not even a question. But the reality is brutal. I’m preparing for NEET, and I genuinely cannot manage my studies alongside parenting. My day never belongs to me. My son needs constant attention, emotional presence, time ..and I can’t avoid that responsibility, nor do I want to. But because of this, my preparation is falling apart. I sit with my books and my mind is elsewhere. I wake up tired. I sleep exhausted. Consistency? Gone. Focus? Fragmented. People say ..manage your time but how do you manage time when another human being depends on you for literally everything? I’m stuck between being a responsible father and trying not to give up on my dream of becoming a doctor I don’t regret my child. But I do feel trapped by circumstances I didn’t choose. I’m not looking for sympathy. I just need guidance😊
