"Odyssey" Casting Controversy
The tidal wave of backlash and complaints about this are so vast, what the actual fuck is going on? Why does it feel like just another big-money-backed white supremacist campaign?
First off, this is not a historical non-fiction epic. This is FANTASY. The Odyssey may even be the most prolific, surviving piece of fantasy media from history (well, besides religions themselves but thats a whole other can of worms).
Secondly, it just feels so fuckin man-o-sphere, as if masculinity is somehow so hard its sculpted from granite yet so fragile that Elliot Page threatens to shatter the entire concept. Christopher Nolan has built such a pedigree, bro has *earned* the benefit of the doubt and even if Elliot Page is indeed Achilles, I'm choosing to believe this will be more like a Robert Battinson situation rather than the completely hogwash that is The Last of Us.
Lastly, Ancient Greece was not primarily white like the actors I chose to highlight here. Ancient Greece was the OG cultural melting pot, and as radical as it may sound the average Greek looked like a Greek; rich, dark curly hair with sun-kissed olive skin. Aristotle himself believed that skin colour deviations too extreme from this tanned middle-ground could signal genetic weaknesses in character and morals. Before that gets simplified as "white right, black is whack" nah you ignorant cunt, paler was equally deviant and weak.
This movie actually looks like its going to be the fuckin tits and I cant wait to see it in imax with my boys.
If you are in your heart of hearts truly subscribed to whatever nonsense this whole "Make Aryans Great Again" doctrine, you are a fool and a coward and ill show you *exactly* where you can fuck all of the way off with that shit
Edit: for the record im about as pale as Iwan Rheon is in "Misfits" lmao
This sub is compromised and censored
Title. How long before this gets removed without even a chance to justify why its necessary?
Edit: idk how to change the title of this post, but given that it has survived i would like to amend "This Sub is Compromised" to "This Site* is Compromised"
Thank you.
Ontario subreddit censorship
Turns out if you speak against the abuses of unmitigated immigration, you will be censored and banned from r/Ontario without any discussion.
I am well aware I could have handled this somewhat better but as I often say, I am an angry asshole and I own that. I am not a racist, but I am having almost-exclusively negative experiences while dealing with particular immigrants and im finding myself trying very hard to find positive representations to counteract them.
For the record I have witnessed what I was commenting about firsthand, but apparently that is just misinformation and racist propaganda.
Dear Tim's Employees
Pictured here is a spoon. It is a rounded silverware utensil for scooping and stirring. You may have even seen them before, perhaps sitting upon countertops or near drink dispensers. Maybe this is your first encounter with such an elaborate device.
Now I do not know what management is putting in the training videos nowadays, but in case they have changed drastically from when I worked at Tim's then please let me assure you that picking up one of these utensils, rinsing it quickly under some water in the sink, and then placing it inside the drink you are preparing for a customer and softly rotating it clockwise around said drink, YOU WILL NOT BE FIRED FOR DOING THIS.
In fact, 99% of your customers will prefer it. The 1% that won't will make a special request to forego this part of alchemical beverage-crafting.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk
Edit: just going to add this here instead of replying to individuals but, yes, I will be returning today. Tim's has been a part of my daily life for 20+ years and I have no intention of stopping simply because TFWs have weaponized incompetence.
The whole "see you tomorrow/why complain/etc" points are stupid as fuck and serve only to undermine genuine complaints.
I'm not asking for filet mignon, I am not asking for chicken cordon Bleu or even roasted asparagus.
JUST STIR THE MOTHERFUCKING DRINKS WHY IS THIS DIFFICULT AND HOW DOES ANYONE EXPECT YOU TO FUNCTION IN SOCIETY IF YOU CAN NOT EVEN MANAGE THE MOST BASIC TASKS?
No, this was not written by a bot or ChatGPT. Turns out you too could write in decent English (or any language really) by simply, and this is the truly unbelievable part, but all one has to do is pick up a book instead of TikTok. Truly, absolutely remarkable stuff here.
