The writing was awful but a truly great actor can still find a way to elevate a bad script. Finn Jones does OK when Danny's written to be more charismatic. But when Danny's written as angry... I just don't think Jones does that emotion well. Not in GoT as Loras, and not in the MCU as Danny. He overacts it and underacts it at the same time, somehow. Facially he kinda gurns, and vocally he plays it flat. And that's a pretty big gap in the armor, acting-wise. Anger's one of the big ones, dramatically speaking.

Seasons 2 and 3 really struggled to recreate the magic of Season 1. The IGH storyline kinda went nowhere and Foolkiller was kinda boring.

I assume that's a reference to the intro screen to Mario 64 where you can pull and deform Mario'd face.

"Tankie" means "person who, in a confrontation between citizens and tanks, roots for the tanks". It's more a reference to a person's underlying authoritarianism rather than communism per se. The main reason it's conflated with communism/marxism is because capitalism has, conceptually, staked a claim to the protectorship of individualism, which is assumed to be desirable. And because this claim is unchallenged, anything which stands against capitalism is assumed to therefore be inherently authoritarian. There is some merit to this claim and these assumptions, but to what extent, I couldn't say. I'm not that smart.

I think the implication is actually that there's a marked dropoff of eligible young Russian men. To preserve a generation, Russia might soon need to use more North Koreans on the Ukrainian front, but that comes with its own problems and risks.

It's weird that Putin's avoiding peace negotiations, as he more than anyone needs to find a way to scale back the war effort before his hold on power begins to waver. I get that he needs to save face while doing so, but he's not gonna get conditions more favorable than a Trump administration, so the clock is ticking.

China will help repopulate Russia. Forcibly.

Large sections of the Twitterverse, which complained that Kang losing to Ant-Man irreparably ruined the character, will probably complain that failing to save their universe from Galactus and running away to another universe means the F4 are unheroic cowards. So for that reason, I concur that it's probably not that simple.

Page 21 of the ruling:

First, the Enforcement Guidance contravenes Title VII's plain text by expanding the scope of "sex" beyond the biological binary: male and female. Although Title VII defines "sex" to also include "pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions," §2000e(k), the Enforcement Guidance concludes that "sex" under Title VII "includes 'pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions' and sexual orientation and gender identity." Enforcement Guidance, §I(A)(5) (emphasis added). Notably, the Guidance uses quotation marks around "pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions"—but not "sexual orientation" or "gender identity." Because neither the plain text of Title VII nor Supreme Court precedent defines Title VII "sex" this broadly. Thus, the Enforcement Guidance lacks statutory or jurisprudential authority to expand Title VII's definition of "sex" to include these new categories.

Interestingly, this also seems to provide a legal basis to discriminate against straight people and cis people. It'll be interesting to see how Republicans attempt to close that extra loophole without also closing the loophole for discrimination against LGBTQ people.

Discovering this series was really helpful as I don't think I ever saw any indication in TotYP that the tomb was meant to be run quickly. In fact TotYP implies that you're supposed to just allow the party to take their time. This worked fine with a new party (I in my infinite wisdom decided to run this as one of my first forays into DMing, and my players were just as green), but with a party of experienced players it's quite tedious as they take ages to do ANYTHING. I might introduce a timer going forward.
