Grape posted:Just double checking here, but is Ted Rall asking why the US doesn't have poor minorities protesting/rioting over police abuse? You'll notice he doesn't mention police abuse as a problem the US has! He's only asking why poor minorities aren't protesting over the problems that affect Ted Rall.

By popular demand posted:Whenever people get deep into discussing the intricacies of human biological sex I feel out of my element and not entirely happy that is the subject. I know we all know that the “gently caress your feelings” crowd are the most feelings-driven, but it’s truly remarkable how monumentally true that is in the trans rights sphere. They’re 100% just squeamish about one of the corollaries of the obvious fact that we’re all made of programmable meat. And then they have the impudence, the god damned temerity, to claim that they’re standing up for science, the science they learned in year 5 that you’re supposed to unlearn later if you make it to university science. And even then, for the benefit of any “two genders” fuckheads in the room, let the record show that my primary school taught me the difference between gender and sex, and that there are at least three genders.

Also sending cluster munitions to Ukraine is kind of a big deal, not "whatever garbage headline".

The Nib just puts the headline directly in it instead of having a character awkwardly standing around with an oversized newspaper in hand or whatever. It's not really a big deal if you know anything about the conflict. Which is to say that Russia already has been using cluster munitions regularly since 2014, and Ukraine has been to a much lesser extent. The ones we're sending Ukraine are less lovely then the ones they already have, which are old and are much more prone to failure. Russia already uses them regularly on Ukrainian civilians, so it's not like Biden not sending them will protect civilians from them. I'm no fan of cluster munitions, but the headline makes it seem like neither side has cluster munitions nor use them already. That's why it's a garbage headline.

The new Indiana Jones movie completely crushed the competition at the box office, so did the Little Mermaid. The problem with the Indiana Jones movie is that it cost so much that it still failed to make much of a profit. And the trilogy has always had female characters that didn't like him. Marion punches him, Willie Scott constantly berates him and Elsa turns out to be a nazi that only faked liking him.

The Artificial Kid posted:How does making a new movie extend the copyright of an old movie? Having rights to an intelectual property, like say Little Mermaid or Dumbo, requires the holder to actually do something with it, else it becomes public domain. Disney wrote these laws to prey on dead authors for their stories without compensation, and as a consequence have to make new stories with their existing IPs.

Still not sure what the point is supposed to be. Yeah, tastes like chicken is the old joke for an unusual food being a bit bland, but "haha they did all that work and it just tastes like poultry without the mass bird cruelty" isn't the own he thinks it is if that's what he was going for.

Disney wrote these laws to prey on dead authors for their stories without compensation, and as a consequence have to make new stories with their existing IPs. Needing to keep IP active is trademark not copyright. And you don't need to make new movies to hang onto a trademark. Copyright running out is on a fixed schedule. A new movie won't affect the old movie, and once the old movie is public domain people can use anything they want from it.

 My new tactic for dealing with these assholes is to constantly remind everyone exactly what they're so terrified of, using the definition of woke graciously provided by Ron DeSantis' legal team. Edit: a black hole actually fits here since black holes, much like systemic racism to conservatives, are impossible to see. I think I did an AGC.

I think the joke might be that we should be aware that our chickens are already genetically engineered, which is why genetically engineered meat tastes like chicken.
