That's a given, duh.

But one of them involves only one adult.

The other involves two adults: a perpetrator and a victim.

There's also a difference between doing something to yourself and doing something to someone else. Seems weird that the spiker gets a much lighter sentence.

A quick search and it seems to be true. The miscarriage doesn't seem to be intentional, but meth apparently doesn't do well for pregnant women. So even assuming the worst of the woman and she did it intentionally, she got 1,460 days while this dude spiking a woman's drink with abortion medication got 180.

Wait what the fuck? You do know that just because most of Africa doesn't have snow on the ground doesn't mean it has the same weather year round, right? You do know that rainy seasons drastically affect the vegetation? Why do you think African herd animals migrate every year do you think they do it for the exercise.

People seem to forget it was called the Gilded Age because the companies that arose from the Industrial Revolution were like a thin layer of gold coating a giant pile of shit.

So getting your dick sucked by a chick is queer? Can you get your minority card mailed to you?

So many people obsessed with defending a feminist bitch. Just let her get eaten.

The whole localization frustrates me.

I do think in some cases there is adhering to the spirit to the meaning rather than a direct translation. Pokemon for example would not have caught on (no pun intended) as much as it has in America if all the original names were kept or directly translated rather than using wordplay that English speakers would understand.

But these people don't even care about the spirit. They just want to low key insert their fanfiction into official material. AI can do a lot of legwork now, but it's still not as good as if a real human did it, but that seems to be a sacrifice that has to be made if the only humans that are doing it are shitty people disrespecting the source material.

He's being given the cream of the crop in terms of cancer treatments, state-of-the-art stuff that no longer relies on chemotherapy. The stuff that cured Jimmy Carter's cancer in like six weeks that normal people can't afford.

He could still die but a royal douche getting cancer is not the same as a normal person getting cancer.

What did Hartman do? Aside from retcon Danny Phantom to make the ghosts no longer ghosts.

So three things are possible.

  1. Activision-Blizzard plopped her in there because the company is falling apart and "we got a woman president" makes for good puff pieces and if she fails to save the company they can just fire her easily.

  2. Activision-Blizzard plopped her in there because they really think they can afford to add a diversity hire.

  3. This woman is actually qualified to do the job. Unfortunately at this point the company is so fucked that it's highly unlikely just one person even in such a high position will be able to turn them around.

A rule of thumb is to take 2-3 inches off of an actor's listed height.

That said, Ritchson is tall and buff and if they use tricks to make him seem even bigger than GOOD because that's being faithful to the adaptation. Far better than the face they had with Tom Cruise and his little self pretending to be Reacher.

Venom/Venom 2 worked because people like Venom enough on his own, Tom Hardy was good, and the buddy cop theme they had worked.

Morbius was a snoozefest that I would not be surprised if AI wrote some of the script because it was so mindlessly derivative.

I have no idea who the hell Madame Web is, and I don't care.

Just a quick judgement looking at the article, one thing that stands out is how "white families move out of the suburbs". ....Gee, why do you think the white families are moving out of the suburbs? Hint: it's not because they got more money and are moving into mansions.

I had to double check what a decimeter is because I've never heard of anyone using that, everyone uses either centimeters or meters and that works just fine. I don't know how you think there's a problem for something "larger than cm/dm scale but smaller than meter scale" when people just say things like 58 centimeters, or 9.45 meters, etc.

You'd be shocked how many people who retain important, high-up positions responsible for critical company decisions and they are just dumb as rocks.

They think "okay so women make up 50% of the population so if we start catering to women HOLY SHIT WE'LL DOUBLE OUR PROFITS" which pleases the shareholders to no end and it dominoes from there.
