But also, oops, you cant vote, sucks that you were going to vote for us anyway

I bet its hard to blackmail someone who can’t remember they are being blackmailed

God, the entirely of Dollhouse was the most problematic thing I’ve ever seen in retrospect (regarding the born sexy yesterday trope) and I can’t believe that past me didn’t see how messed up everything about it was. That the dolls were turned into helpless blanks between jobs and constantly sexualized in that state was so messed up.

And it didn’t give him a chance to be weird and creepy with Summer Glau.

I used to love Joss Whedon from everything he made. I grew up watching Buffy, and loved Firefly, then Marvel got him for Avengers and I was excited for him to be getting such a big break. He later Agents of Shield which I also loved. But then it came out that he was an abuser. His whole persona of championing strong women was merely a facade to hide this.

Learning that Michelle Trachtenberg (RIP) had a clause in her contract while working in Buffy (2000-3) at age 15 that she was not to ever be in the same room as Whedon alone opened my eyes to just how bad things are. Not just how bad he was, but how well it was known that he was an abuser and no one did anything about it. That’s just how things were.

I have a hard time watching Buffy or any of his works anymore, just knowing now that he was behind these things.

A longer more accurate sign would read:
“Do not enter. Violators will be charged with Trespassing.”
But that’s a lot more words than just saying “No Trespassing”, and its less likely to be overlooked.

i wanted to be rich when I was a kid, but it turns out you have to be a soulless monster that steps on people to get ahead in the corporate world and I’m not about that.

I also wanted to work in computers or making video games. I learned that making games is a soul crushing job, so I shied away from that and ended up working as a Software Engineer, so yeah, I nailed that dream. I’ll just stick to playing games.

That’s why I’m trying to get into DevOps, but finding a job is rough, I only see openings for senior level positions that ask for 5+ years experience in a huge set of tools, half of which I’ve never used. How did you get started there?

Of course its at Fulton County, its the biggest county in Georgia that also voted overwhelmingly for Biden.

That is also a significant downside. I am not nearly careful enough with my phone to be trusted with something so frail for regular use.

I love the idea of a folding phone, but the fact that it has a lifetime number of folds before it breaks is a no go for me. Until the lifetime number of folds is as ridiculous as the number of IPv6 addresses, I don’t think I want one.

Its free unlike Concord, so having a large number of launch players is not surprising. Keeping them is the real challenge.

Flash, Mina, Ivy, Nanaki, Ororo, Elsa, Addams, Manhattan, Wheatley

Flash is fastest.
Mina is acidic.
Ivy is full of plants.
Nanaki is red.
Ororo is famous for it’s storms.
Elsa is best known for it’s beautiful ice.
Addams is an oddball that does it’s own thing.
Manhattan is blue.
Wheatley is rejected by it’s peers.

That’s good one, a world where NAT never has to exist.
