  • I know you're joking, but I don't get people who unironically think like this. Like whats preventing a woman from eating lots of meat and losing money on sports betting? Like what physical barrier prevents them from doing that? None.

    So how could that define manhood?

  • Just waiting for the day when someone can explain to me what makes a man a man without describing skills, qualities, and actions that anyone can do regardless of gender.

    And don't tell me it's "have a penis", because if that were true then effeminate men wouldn't be insulted all the time for not being "real" men, and there wouldn't be toxic masculinity.

  • Empowerment is when people make themselves subservient around you? If you need everyone around you do defer to your ego that's not empowerment.

  • Yeah because no one ever picks an online username that doesn't perfectly represent their irl personality 1:1

    You have no idea how this person behaves offline, you're just reacting to their username

  • Algorithmic social media just ruins everything. Once twitter and facebook started pulling out all the stops to keep us on their sites instead of letting us use them as a starting point to connect and/or simply augment our existing irl relationships.

  • I think a lot of the attitude I saw on mastodon about this like a year ago was one of suspicion that they wanted an open network but didn't use the fediverse standard

  • depending on jurisdiction they can't just arbitrarily raise rates

  • This goes so hard I love it

  • Plenty of US shows go live on streamers at midnight for one of the coasts, seems like they're just treating Doctor Who the same but for the UK?

  • I mean, they shouldn't be bricking each other's computers, then they can't continue to learn with them

  • I suspect it will be still family viewing, just a little dark for some young kids to watch solo maybe

  • That's literally what I thought and still kinda think even after his comments

  • Yeah I think a lot of Chibnals detractors are in for a rude awakening. Sure, you can say it wasn't woke for RTD1 but that's nostalgia considering he:

    • parodied Tony Blair with John Simms master
    • created an out and proud pansexual in Harkness
    • portrayed the Doctor as ambiguous sexually, accepting advances from Jack and Lynda (?) In parting of ways
    • the slitheen two-parter being commentary on the war on terror and false claims of WMDs

    I think that in the time since 2010, RTDs writing experience and the general increase in right wing radicalisation since 2015 are combining to create these decisions like able bodied Davros or 14 regenerating clothes

  • Source?

  • It wouldn't be so bad if classic who was consistently paced. The black and white episodes had some real bangers that I was engaged for the fill 22 minutes, but a lot were just slogs.

    In principle I do believe a good story can carry anything - visuals are secondary in a compelling plot.

  • VPN for now sadly. Torrent sites might have it at some point but not yet last I checked.

  • I started this summer, and I've made it to the Pertwee era last week.

  • Unless she trespassed there's nothing illegal. I don't think she shared a specific address. It IS (was?) against the YT TOS but they only care about what makes returns for Google's shareholders.
