Well There’s Your Problem did an absolutely horrifying episode about it. I recommend it.

John Wayne had to be physically restrained from beating up a Native American woman at the Academy Awards.

You forgot lead in the soil from all the lead in the air. That’s biting us in the ass now, since a lot of plants we eat are REALLY good at taking in heavy metals.

TBF, Avery Brooks fought like hell to get Far Beyond The Stars as uncomfortable as it was. Berman and the network wanted it to be a trite little story about a sci-fi writer; almost all the racism, discrimination, etc was Brooks pushing back on them.

That’s an odd way to spell Drake.

And those are just suggestions. Your mech, as long as it conforms to a pattern-group (read: has bits from one license or another) can look like literally anything. Wanna play a Tokugawa but it’s Blade Liger? You can do that. Wanna do a Sunzi that’s literally Big O? Go for it.

Ever since the appearance modding system went in, my Hunter’s been pretty genderfluid - I tend to swap from male to female depending on how I feel that day.

Shadowrun has gender changes as basically a walk in, outpatient procedure in most cases. There’s a character in lore that changes their sex every so often just for fun.

I mean, generally speaking if your spouse is going THAT FAR to fabricate reasoning behind a name, that’s likely not the only thing they’re lying about to you.

A fellow Lions Led By Donkeys fan?

Honestly have to agree. It’s weird, but fine.

I believe it was Twain that said “I’ve never wished a man dead, but there are obituaries that I have read with great satisfaction.”

He also sold all his gold and donated the proceeds after helping during Hurricane Katrina. He felt it was wrong and disrespectful for him to be wearing all that wealth helping people who had just lost everything.

Neonazis love Sabaton, despite Sabaton doing multiple press releases that say “fuck you Nazi scum aren’t welcome”. Same with Rammstein, people hear things about Germany and assume you’re on the side of the genocidal fascists.
