I remember reading my parents' homeschooling magazines. It seemed like every issue had another case where the ACLU was trying to prevent or otherwise obstruct parents from homeschooling on ways that didn't align with the state.

The only exceptions are robots that are obviously anthropomorphized or otherwise made to be masculine or feminine. Androids and Gynoids, essentially.

Meanwhile, kids' cereal and candy ads aren't allowed to be fanciful and entertaining any more.

As a Nintendo fan who has been grimly watching the slow decline (And cheering the occasional success) I can confirm this statement is factual. It blows my mind how these people can cheer games being stripped of gameplay and content and then act like you're the bad guy for daring to want Nintendo to make a product worth paying money for.

Actually, it might not be. I remember the suits took issue with the show for some reason or other and have gone out of their way to bury it.

It's a shame too, because it was a lot of fun.

Hey, if it gets you in the door. A young C. S. Lewis aggressively studied Christianity to disprove it before coming to the conclusion he couldn't.

Convenient that you forgot the question mark in your first post.

I'll be over here rewatching "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" if anyone needs me. At least Patrick Warburton replacing Tim in that was due to budget and not woke.

It's ironic, because Team Lightyear in the original Buzz Lightyear of Star Command show was also really diverse. In that every member besides Buzz was an alien or a robot.

All I know is this movie isn't going to have XR, so I couldn't care less about it.

"You do not fit in here" to "Why are you excluding us?" to "You do not fit in here."

I love the irony of this translation making Jesus seem really wordy and obtuse.

It's not like The Mushroom Kingdom is doing any better than us inflation-wise anyway. Have you seen the exchange rate between Mushroom and Beanbean coins?

Monkeys are still used for behavioural studies relating to humanity. Heck. Even mice behavioral studies have led to very prophetic looks into human nature (Look up NIMH's mouse city experiments. The paralells with modern society are chilling, especially with regards to sexuality.) This should still raise some very concerned eyebrows.

It's also hard to maintain Bread and Circuses when there's no bread.

"You'll never have a nightmare if you never dream" is a wonderfully chilling line.

It's because it's new, it's good, and it's actually a game you play, as opposed to a cinematic experience.

If anything, the visuals of TFA were the only value it had. (And they were still sub-par for Star Wars, though I doubt that's the artists' fault.)

Sometimes I wonder if the push to... for lack of a better word, villainize cartoon villains as "unrealistic" is a cover for the fact that the world is full of cartoonishly evil people.

People act like homeschoolers receive no socialization from other kids and are locked up in their home all day. Meanwhile, I was attending youth groups, Homeschool Co-Ops, and hanging out with the kids in my neighborhood all the time. And I STILL turned out weird because I'm just a weird person. Go figure.
