The big, popular animated sitcoms are just as much "problematic sitcoms" as the older live action ones were, maybe even more so. #television #movies #feminism

Literally every day there's one or more reports of s*xual assualt in the news. That needs to be cracked down on, and treated as terrorism. #metoo #feminism #news #politics #us #terrorism

If I had a kid, I wouldn't enroll them in any gymnastics or ballet classes, for their own safety. #parenting #education #metoo #gymnastics #gymternet #ballet

What if AI were used to trace discriminatory hiring and firing behavior to individual HR managers, and fire the ones who are discriminating against people? #ai #feminism #racism #jobs

Such moves are also potentially a #metoo problem if gym or ballet teachers sexualize them, which they are, especially in classes that teach children and teens to do them.

Don't hurt yourself, practice and do moves you actually enjoy and have fun, for yourself.

Gymnastics or ballet moves that are uncomfortable or even painful to do and that you get nothing out of yourself, to create an appearance for others, are problematic and are part of harmful artificial beauty standards created by misogynistic men.

is it too much to ask for movies with gay characters that DON'T have homophobic bullshit happen to them? It seems like that happens half the time and i don't like it. #lgbt #wlw #yaoi #movies #television

It's also not necessary anymore for storytelling to have that happen to inform straight people that homophobia exists, it's out there, it's all over the news, people know about it.

If such AI-rating existed, I bet viewership of things that have homophobia would plummet and people would watch a lot more of things without it, where LGBT people are just normally respected like everyone else, and platforms may just not acquire movies and shows with it in the first place.

I don't want to watch a movie about girls dating and being cute and suddenly there's homophobic bullshit interrupting that. People get enough of that IRL, we don't need it in fiction, and I'm pretty sure straight allies don't want to see that either.

I wish streaming services would use AI to read the transscript of movies and shows that have LGBT characters and give it a rating for whether it has homo/transphobia happen, or people have internalized homo/transphobia, so people can skip them. #movies #television #lgbt #wlw #ai #yaoi #netflix #hulu

Japan Supreme Court's Grand Bench to deliberate same-sex marriage case | NHK WORLD-JAPAN News Japan's Supreme Court has decided that its Grand Bench will sit to consider whether or not the country's legal provisions that fail to recognize same-sex marriage violate the Constitution.

Japan could very well become the only country to both recognize same-sex marriage and still require married couples to use the same surname.

Pretty good chance it will do the right thing. 5 regional courts ruled in favor vs 1 against, that's pretty good precedent.

All student loan debt, credit card debt, BNPL debt and payday loans should be cancelled and new debt of these types should be prohibited. Debt = cocaine. #news #economy #debt #money

No court has ruled on this yet as far as I know, but it could happen.

It could also be questioned if they truly serve as free advertising. It you watch an entire let's play, then even if you haven't basically gotten the game's experience from that, do you even have time to play it after buying it? Hours watching let's plays could subtract from hours playing games.

It wouldn't be hard to argue that the commentary exists alongside the gameplay, and intermittently, rather than transforming it like a video review that uses clips does. Watch gameplay and story and be immersed in it, then pause for commentary on the side, then go back to watching the gameplay.

Game streaming let's players have become toxic over the last several years like the rest of social media, so I change my opinion to: Let's Plays are not transformative and are basically piracy, I hope a federal judge rules them illegal. (1/4) #games #gaming #youtube #vtubers

HRT should be available over the counter with no prescription so you don't have to go to some shady 3-story building on the edge of town where they try to gaslight you into thinking you aren't actually trans. #lgbt #trans #transrights

Also, that one guy saying "when they go low, we kick 'em" was encouraging violence, we shouldn't have any of that seeping into in our, or any, political party.

Taxes should be raised on the rich, yes, but as a means to fund important programs and infrastructure that benefit everyone and not blow a massive hole in the deficit, not as a way to "go get" the rich.

Democrats should drop saying things like "eat the rich", it is populist rhetoric that raises the temperature in the room the same as right-wing anti-immigrant rhetoric. (1/3) #news #politics #economy

Canola and other oils have much less saturated fat and much more good unsaturated fat.

Butter is pointless, you can use Canola oil instead for everything. Spoon canola oil onto bread and spread it with the back of the spoon and air fry it. The saturated fat in butter is only to keep it semisolid, but it melts into liquid anyway when cooked. #food #cooking #health #diet #airfryer

Next year, the Democrats should draw a red line and include language to rein in many Presidental powers and return them to the Congress in the 2027 Defense Authorization Act. It will need 2/3 majority to pass, and it will get it. #news #politics #us #nokings

Anyone else feel like just about everything rated R or MA sucks? Like that's where most of the problematic and cynical stuff is. I'm 38 and just set my content rating filter on TubiTV to Teen or younger and it's so much better and more fun. #netflix #streaming #television #gaming
