It should be illegal to fire someone based on social media comments. It may not technically be against the 1st Amendment, but it sure as heck goes against the spirit of Freedom of Speech which should define our culture. Only petty fools are willing to give that up.

@fandompulse It fails because the plot is dumb and the difficult situations the main characters end up in are contrived and largely ridiculous. Sometimes an author writes garbage and that's fine. But no one should pretend it's any good.

Andy Weir explains why he wrote Artemis with a female protagonist during 'peak woke era': “Writer to writer, what I did on that one was, I tried for a female main character, and this in the kind of peak woke era." "So, a lot of people were just like, ‘Oh, this female character written by a man’ and they were right from the beginning not willing to accept that. However, I have to own up to the fact that I made her too kind of unlikable is the main problem is that she was she was a very flawed person and she was often she is very much the agent of her own problems." "Like most of the problems that she encounters in the book are due to bad decisions that she made. So, I was trying to make a complex, nuanced, criminal character, and I ended up making somebody that was hard for the reader to root for. … I would not want to hang out with this woman. I don’t root for her. I think she’s a pain in the ass.” Was this why the book failed compared to Project Hail Mary?

Mi novia se ha enfadado: Queremos ahorrar para un piso. Yo cobro 5.500€ Ella cobra 1.400€ Le propongo ir a medias: Yo → 600€ Ella → 600€ Pero dice que no. Que como gano mucho más, debería ser: Yo → 1.000€ Ella → 200€ Dice que es “lo justo”. Yo no lo veo así. ¿Quién está equivocado?

@StefanMolyneux We can be sure of the observed acceleration due to gravity on a specific planet or moon. That's about it.

@maslentejas Lo q pasa q se les ha dicho q tienen q ser independientes. Asi q salen de la casa para alejarse de los padres. Es triste. A los immigrantes, el gobierno suele darles welfare. No debe ser así, pero hay muchos tipos corruptos q quieren mas immigrantes por razones politicas.

Algo que no entiendo Los jóvenes gringos entran en shock porque no pueden pagar el costo de vida Y al mismo tiempo casi todos los latinoamericanos tenemos mínimo un conocido que se fue allá y tiene familia con varios hijos gorditos y bien vestidos y sigue llevando más familia
Notícias Paralelas@NP__Oficial

🚨 BREAKING NEWS l Jovens americanos estão perdendo a cabeça e tendo colapsos nervosos porque simplesmente não conseguem arcar com o custo de vida: "Eu me mato de trabalhar e não consigo nem pagar as contas. Tudo isso é inútil."

@CapitanColombia @maslentejas Esto no es cierto. Muchos jovenes salen de la casa para ir a universidad o para trabajar a los 18, pero los padres no solemos echarlos ni queremos q se vayan. Ademas, es mucho mas común ahora q se queden en casa para ahorrar plata mientras estudian.

I have an older but fully functional smart phone. It has the latest OS that is available to it. And now stupid apps are requiring more recent OS versions. No, jerkwads. I'm not going to buy a new phone just to use your trash app.

@RandPaul What if we just stopped giving money to fraudsters and NGOs and sending it overseas and adding it to porkbarrel bills, etc.?

We don’t have a revenue problem, we have a spending problem. My Penny Plan would cut just 6% a year and balance the budget in five years. That’s it. Show markets we’re serious about fiscal discipline, and the economy will respond. Time to hold the line on spending.

@DerrickEvans4WV If I buy a gallon of gas for $3.50, I can't sell it to you for $3. First I have to sell that gas for $4. When I buy my next gallon at the new price of $2.50, then I can sell it to you for $3.

Can someone please explain to me how we have all this extra oil to sell to other countries, but gas is over $4/gallon here as if there’s some sort of shortage.

@pika_nekopanda We don't really have a national sport. We watch lots of different sports. Some of us prefer soccer, but other sports are more popular.

So sad to see the evolution of Netflix from "this amazing thing that gets away from traditional broadcasting and let's you just enjoy watching show" to "this thing that embraces all the yuck of advertising and politics in the most unpleasant ways possible."

@Marlayna29 No. That meme was made by a woman. It should say: When you're just living peacefully to yourself, but other people around you can't understand it, so they assume you're depressed.

@DaleTolsma @martianwyrdlord I never watched it. But in the remake did they really make the black guy just a shouting sidekick? I would have thought they'd give him lots of great qualities too.

Naturally she fails to understand the meaning of Mary Sue entirely. It does not mean "girl character", it means "perfect character who can do anything with no limitations". Luke Skywalker was a half decent pilot with a degree of natural ability with the Force that takes him years to develop. He isn't particularly good at anything else. From the very beginning of The Force Awakens, Rey is an expert pilot, a master martial artist, a top spaceship mechanic, and within five seconds of finding out that the Force exists ascends to the level of Jedi Master. She's also hot, smart, brave, and all the other good things. She needs neither assistance nor instruction. Character growth is unnecessary and impossible. Her only struggle is getting people to admit her natural perfect awesomeness. And even this comes easily to her.
Fandom Pulse@fandompulse

Daisy Ridley says calling her character in Star Wars A Mary Sue is sexist: “The Mary Sue thing in itself is sexist because it’s the name of a woman. Everyone was saying that Luke had the exact same [capabilities]. I think Rey is incredible vulnerable, and nothing she’s doing is for the greater good. She’s just doing what she thinks is the right thing. And she doesn’t want to do some of it, but she feels compelled to do it. So for me, I was just confused.” Is this why modern Star Wars fails because they can't understand criticism?
