The Trolley Problem and Schroedinger's Cat are super misunderstood. The Trolley Problem doesn't call for you to save the most number of lives. It merely illustrates that inaction is an action. Shroedinger's Cat is making fun of the idea of superstates, not illustrating them. It's a parody.

Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan not only shows Dr. Carol Marcus as a single mother who got a PhD, but also shows she raised a son who also got a PhD. That's the future worth fighting for.

Watched a YouTube video about Christian influencers. Some woman claimed spiders, snakes, owls, and frogs are "associated with witchcraft" and therefore "demonic". Um... they're animals. God made them. They are God's creatures. Adam was commanded to care for all of God's world, including animals.

"Hollywood has abandoned originality, it's all remakes and sequels these days." Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, and Dorothy Lamour made 7 "Road to" movies for 22 years. And that was before movies even had color.

Singer Yvette Marie Stevens choosing the stage name Chaka Khan is some wild work. Both Chaka Zulu and Genghis Khan were military geniuses, sure. But they were also mass murderers who committed genocide multiple times and used sexual violence as a weapon against women.

James T. Kirk is autistic and has ADHD. He neglects sleep, food, and hates sitting still, because he gets hyper fixated. 19th Century US history is a special interest. Gary Mitchell called him "a stack of books with legs".

Soledad is a brutal name to give a woman. It's Spanish for "loneliness". I have no idea why it's so common. Even having lived in a Spanish speaking country for almost a decade, I'm clueless as to what the purpose is.

Insects roam the earth It says in the Bible Mutants will rise To do what must be done Big black rock That once was a building Soon this shitty place Will burn like the sun

Trans folks. "Passing" is not a realistic goal, because the transphobes are transvestigating cis people. There are people accusing Margot Robbie and Henry Cavill of being trans. If hot conventionally attractive cis people can't "pass" - who can!?

I got the new Resident Evil Trilogy (7 + 8 + 9) for Switch 2, having never played them before. Just finished 7. Holy crap what a great game. Lackluster final 30min, but I thoroughly enjoyed all of it. It comes highly recommended by me.

Aside from being a horrible comic, Jeff Dunham is a pretty bad ventriloquist. Every time he does the puppets' voice, he curls his lower lip, and his voice box jiggles like Jell-O.

The film The Last Samurai is super racist by depicting the Japanese Samurai class as being regressive and traditionalist. Their jobs were to be effective warriors, not moon-eyed nostalgists. Samurai of that era wore cotton uniforms, used rapiers not katana, and were sharpshooters with firearms.

It was pretty visionary that Rodenberry kept cigarettes completely out of the original Star Trek. Almost half of adult Americans were smokers at the time, and tobacco advertisers wanted the characters to light up. Rodenberry had to fight the network to keep the Enterprise smoke-free.

A good person's compassion and empathy is not predicated on comprehending the internal reality of the other person. I can't relate to or really wrap my head around people who enjoy being in animal-themed mascot costumes. That doesn't change the fact that they deserve all the love, care, and rights.

Just watched the first episode of Omegahorn. I think this is the first Toei tokusatsu series which takes place in a world completely unlike our own, rather than having the hero being an outlier in an otherwise normal world. So much lore to unpack! I'm excited!
