You can bet that if Caemlyn or the Seanchan had been treated like the sore thumbs they were to the Two Rivers lot then the same wokesters whining about any lack of diversity would have complained about characters treating various groups differently because of the blatant differences in appearances, despite that being the entire point of a coming of age story.
A reminder that top right is meant to look like Yennifer so much that the Lodge specifically sent her to literally fuck Geralt as a distraction from searching for Ciri.
Personal note: the reason I italicised that section is because it was entirely done using autocomplete on my phone. That's how often I've brought up Fringilla and her looks.
The casting director has literally admitted it was intentional.
Post appears to have been deleted at some point but this was the thread about it.
Some fun facts about mosquitoes:
The term mosquito is the common name given to every single species of Fly [Order: Diptera] found in Family: Culicidae.
There are about 3600 of these.
They are pretty much everywhere except Antarctica, and maybe Iceland.
The above two points are why "mosquitoes" will never, ever be eradicated because there are simply too many of them.
Not all mosquitoes are vectors [carriers] of insect borne diseases [zoonoses] and those that are will only carry specific diseases. They are Genus/species locked in most cases so you will only ever catch Dengue from an Aedes [aegyptii] mosquito rather than an Anopheles [gambiae] which carries Malaria or Culex [modestus] which carries West Nile Virus.
The different species not only have different periods of activity during the day, some are only active during dusk and dawn while others will be active during the day, but the species have different postures when idle, postures that can be distinctive enough to ID the species with a glance.
Only female mosquitoes drink blood, males feed on flower nectar and consequently function as pollinators.
Yes but its less likely to happen
Disagree. One of the reasons there is so much woke infestation in hobbies is due to the number of NEETs squatting on official and fandom wikis because they have nothing else to do.
Same issue is present outside of hobbies and because they literally "do it for free" without needing to be ordered they make some of the "best", and cheapest, useful idiots for any groups looking to shape discourse around certain topics or interests.
Fan subs can be just as ideologically driven, look at how All Might and Sir Nighteye from My Hero Academia had their working relationship translated to indicate a romantic history. When the translator was called out on this he was evasive at first before admitting he had changed what some of the dialogue had been.
It's amazing how quickly this writing is going to be out of date since many of those things are no longer held in a positive light by the public.
Masking is already facing big pushbacks and isn't even brought back fully in many of the places behaving in such a way.
Immigration is hitting crisis points in many places now as the sheer number of new arrivals dwarfs any prior numbers and shifts demographics overnight, all the while somehow being expected to function without additional infrastructure development as a foundation.
The BBC, and MSM, are facing more and more call outs for these topics as the narratives being pushed are countered with increasing numbers of conflicts arising. Of course the response is to tighten their grip and claim any such videos aren't within the proper context which then infuriates those already skeptical in the first place.
All in all this reads like literal tumblr fan fiction and already so badly framed it won't survive long under any scrutiny.
Ah yes, Fringilla, a character who is meant to be so similar in looks to Yen that the Lodge specifically sent her to literally fuck Geralt as a distraction from searching for Ciri and at one point resulted in him calling out Yen's name during one such fucking... 🙄
Could Netflix not find any more drab actresses to match after the casting of Yen? 🤔
I disagree with the point about Edwina being trans, Edwin simply fucked up and was a man stuck in a woman's body trying to get his original body back. Sure there might have been times of body dimorphia but it wasn't because he felt he was born in the wrong body, it's because he's a Red Wizard of Thay and arrogant enough to stupidly play about with powers beyond his ability. Then later when he manages to fix it he does something similar when challenging Elminster which results in him being turned into Edwina again, but probably not for any trans related reasons. More likely it's Elminster being the crazy old coot he is and punishing Edwin for being a dick yet again by Dwayne Dibbly-ing him a second time.
Also as MargarineMongoose points out it's not the belt Edwin uses, it's the scrolls you find under the graveyard if you let Edwin keep hold of them. He fucks around with it a few times and when it goes wrong he ends up a woman until he works out how to undo it. In the mean time both party and npc interactions make fun of this like when a fellow wizard learns of what happened and mocks Edwin to his face. I think the response is a fireball from Edwin, or something similarly lethal spell wise.
Tréma, which has its own accent because fuck you, too! 🥖
