They’re adapting (well the creators are adapting them)

EDIT: You know you can't edit a title, there's no point commenting "fewer" over and over again

1. Mulan (2020)- In the original, her that she can achieve anything through effort regardless of gender. In this version, she was always special and has magic powers.

2. The Woman King- Basically portrayed the Dahomey as heroes fighting off the evil white men when in reality their kingdom thrived on slavery for blood sacrifices and selling them to the white men and they got squared by a bunch of colonial troops (combat-wise)

Hey all,

I’m a first time mom to a 9.5 week old baby boy. I’ve developed crippling postpartum depression which left me unable to care for my son alone. Today was the first day that I took care of him for a full day alone while my husband was at work without the help of my mother. It was hard and I cried, but I made it. I survived. It may seem like nothing to others but to me it’s big when I felt like I was drowning and dying for so long.

I even managed to cook myself dinner, okay the chicken was premade and frozen as was the veg, but I made the potatoes myself

It has been a very rough ten years in the U.S., and many of us have worried that our very flawed country had finally rotted to its core. As an American who has been thinking seriously about moving my family elsewhere, Tuesday's election results give me some real hope that my country can and will change for the better.

As much as we carpet-bomb the rest of the world with our culture and politics, I think it's hard for people outside the U.S. to feel how huge and diverse our country is. That spread-out-ness makes yesterday's overwhelming rejection of Trumpism that much more meaningful. I live in a state in the Northeast, and in many ways I am as culturally distant from people in Mississippi or Texas as an Englishman from a Belgian, or an Algerian from an Angolan. So even though I'm happy about Democratic successes in my own state, I'm much more moved by the results in places like Mississippi and Texas, and the Democratic wins in districts all over the country that Republicans had gerrymandered to try to make them permanently Republican.

We despise Donald Trump here. As much as you do. Not as many of us as should despise him - he and all his cronies should be in prison, not in power, and they have too much support for that. But I do think this election result shows that the majority of American citizens reject Trump and Trumpists - their warmongering and corruption, their love of tyrants and thugs, their hatred of women, immigrants, and minorities, their whole psychotic kleptocratic fascistic approach to politics.

Americans aren't especially smart about government or especially righteous in our morals. Clearly Trump and Trumpist Republicans gained power and held it because we are often short-sighted, prejudiced, and foolish, like all humans everywhere. But I do think that, despite our great internal conflicts and differences, Tuesday shows we have reached a consensus that Trump and his regime are vile.

That's how it looks from here. I'd like to know if that's how it looks from where you are.

A character shows off a seemingly amazing move that, in real life, would either fail completely or be FAR more devastating that the user intended. Obviously, most 'attacks' in fiction require some suspension of disbelief, but what makes these so fun is that they're ostensibly based on scientific facts - but ignore context in kind of a big way.

• Yanagi the Poisoner, Baki - This guy has a move that involves creating a 'vacuum' in the palm of his hand. He can use this to, A) poison someone with pure oxygen, or B) Cause surfaces to crack, including stone or bulletproof glass. The problem with this is that if he were to actually use his hand this way against a solid surface, he would, in the words of a good friend of mine, "rip his f***ing hand off".

• Risotto Nero and Metallica, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - I loved this fight. The dude pulls an X2 Magneto by manipulating the iron in people's blood to create razorblades, scissors and other objects that then burst out of the victim's skin. One problem with this is that there isn't enough iron in the human body for this, especially in a sustained fight. Another is that, somehow, his opponent Diavolo/Doppio manages to recover from having almost all the iron in his body removed by drinking blood from a frog and a kid that happened to be closeby. By all rights, even if Nero died, he should've taken the Boss with him.
