Also, the argument of “but what about the exploited workers in the fields ?” is one of the weakest that’s always thrown around. Do they realy think that everyone working for the meat industry are all treated fairly ? All those fields of corn/soy that are used to feed the livestock, guess what, they also need workers.

Also, this is indeed not even an unpopular opinion. Vegans/vegetarians are all around some of the most hated groups of individuals. Source : https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/1368430215618253

Honnestly I was a little bit disapointed cause when I went to see it to the movie theater, I was in the mood for a scary movie. Like typical horror stuff. There is some “scary” passages, but it’s no It. So don’t expect to be full on frightened or to have big jump scares.

However I think it is a movie worth checking out. The acting is on point, the images are vibrant, overall greatly directed. Obviously the movie is a big metaphor, but I went to see it completely blind and I understood pretty easily what it was all about. I’m kind of surprised by the score on IMDB because it has a 83% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and I just heard nice things about this movie beforehand. It brought a tear to my eye even though I am not in the same situation as the protagonist.

I don’t know if OP speaks french or it’s just a funny coincidence, but “pipe” is also slang for blow job.

Est-ce moi ou le titre est vraiment mal formulé ? Je pensais que c’était une bonne nouvelle avant de lire le contenu de l’article…

I’ve been with someone who would constantly be acting in a romantic way while constantly saying there was nothing romantic and that they were not ready to be in a relationship with me. But still always wanting to spend time together, cuddling, etc. As soon as I was acting more distant or less affectionate (basically more friendly than romantic), that’s when they would up a notch the affection display.

It kept me around them because I was always hoping at one point the door would be open for a relationship. When what we had (whatever it was) “officially” ended I was at some of the lowest I’ve been in my life. Looking back at it there was so much gaslighting, now that it’s behind me, I am glad I got out of it.

I think you should tell her it’s either you try to go back together or it’s over for good. Being in this weird Schrodinger’s couple situation never ends well, for both parties. It may hurt, but in the long run you’ll get over it and it will be easier to meet new people who don’t send mixed signals.

Really interesting concept you brought up, did not know that law and yes it makes perfect sense.

And I totally get your point, but it is still an issue to me considering that she wanted to keep the audience hooked as they aged. As someone put it in another comment, in the first book, Harry is eleven, it appeals to kids ~11 y.o, and so on. But, and I speak personnaly, by the fifth book it was already too disjointed for 15 y.o. me. Her books are like a Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure book/episode, but without all the corny humor and the self-awarness that makes it fun.

You brought up a really good example of a fantasy world with boundaries by mentionning Tolkien. It is heavily insinuated in the LOTR books that “magic” is not “endless posibilities magic”, it has more to do with special aptitudes and/or knowledge depending on the race (like elves or wizards). It’s not like Gandalf can just snap a finger and transform someone into a chicken. I know it limits what you can do with your world but in the case of HP it opens the door to endless plot holes and contradictions.

Did your dumb ass even read the article beyond the headline ? It is about revenge porn, not porn in general…

Exactly, the wording is akward but the intentions are in the right place. That kind of stuff helps normalize vegan diets for most people.

Yeah I am pretty sure this is the intention of the writers. Showing yourself naked to your subordinate is not “homoerotism”, it’s harassment.
