It goes both ways. Businesses (especially restaurants) are begging for workers right now in my area. But I know two college graduates with tech degrees and every job they apply for wants 10 years experience for entry level salary.
When young men with no morality are given fame and/or power, women of all stripes throw themselves at them. See rock stars, athletes, celebrities, politicians, etc. They come to believe they can do no wrong and act like dicks. This is a story as old as time itself.
There is nothing new or unique about what seems to have happened at Blizzard. It is repeated every day all over the world. Eventually these guys start to treat every woman like the thots that worship them and that's when the shit hits the fan.
It will happen again next week, next year, next decade, and again after we're all dead. There is no social revolution or societal reset that will stop low morality women from chasing powerful men nor will anything stop those men from losing themselves in their power.
I'm divorced and not by my choice. The courts are stuck in the 1850s. They rule as though a woman cannot take care of herself. If you married her and she doesn't want you any more, you MUST take care of her until she finds another sucker to marry her. I'll never take a so called 'feminist' seriously until they start opposing this but they never will because it works in their favor. I would very much like to get married again someday, but it's hard to imagine giving someone that kind of power over me again.
When I was younger I played hockey and tried to keep my wind up by doing aerobics in the offseason. My instructor got pregnant and kept teaching the class up until the day she gave birth. Belly was smaller than mine the whole time.
Betsy Ross was well behaved. She made history. As was Harriet Tubman, Marie Curie, Margaret Thatcher, Florence Nightengale, Jane Austen, Emily Dickenson, and a host of others.
You don't have to be an asshole to make a difference.
Chromie is a male dragon. Dragons in WoW can take other forms. Chromie usually manifests as a female gnome. The designers said years ago that Chromie was supposed to be a female dragon but somewhere along the line someone forgot that and wrote about the dragon being male.
This is not a trans situation where someone is trying to be something that they're not. Nor is it a retcon. It's just a minor character that they didn't put enough effort into developing where people are just now noticing the lack of consistency.
There's no such thing as Palestine. When Israel became a nation again post WWII, the Arab nations around them all attacked. They convinced many of their people to move to the area outside of Israel because once they destroyed Israel there would be free housing and land for the taking. When Israel kicked their asses, those nations would not allow the 'land for the taking' fools to come back home. Now they're called Palestinians. The only reason they are there or even exist is to destroy Israel and take the land. There is absolutely no scenario where Israel is the aggressor here. If Israel wanted, they could wipe out these folks in about two days. The fact that they mostly leave them alone while absorbing constant attacks is really just mind boggling.
Back in the 80s they were telling us the oceans would be empty of fish in 10 years. Back in the 90s they were telling us we would run out of oil in 20 years. When I was a kid in school in the 70s, they told us we would run out of water in just a few years.
The original series used to laugh at communist Russian propaganda by having Checkov say stupid stuff all the time. Star Trek didn't start going leftist until The Next Generation. These days it's barely recognizable.
It seemed obvious to me that once the series started to sell well, the author just milked it for everything it was worth. There were several books in the series that didn't advance the plot in the slightest and were just side bar filler for the sake of publishing more books. The author eventually died before he even finished and his widow had to hire another author to come in and close the series out. I thought the series started out great but completely hit the wall when the author decided to sell out.
I had similar feelings about the Sword of Truth series, but after seeing what happend with the Wheel series, that author finally stopped screwing around and wrote the conclusion.
Marginalized kids think they'll be accepted if they buy in to the transition junk. I have two kids in high school and they both know several trans kids. Though a number of those stopped being 'trans' when they were stuck at home and didn't have other kids to 'impress'.
The original Star Trek was a military show. Shatner said that Roddenberry sold it to him as Horatio Hornblower in space. All the follow up series completely changed that to SJWs in space. Like Roddenberry had a change of heart in his old age or something. In one of Shatner's books he said the stuido had to keep telling Roddenberry no because he was desperate to film the Star Trek crew going back in time and rescuing JFK.
Why does anyone pay attention to this shit stain? Or any of the 'talk show' hosts? They offer nothing of any entertainment value and trot out vapid 'celebrities' that are just whores that will do or say anything to keep their 'celebrity' going. I truly don't get it.
