The humans disappeared between films because Scrat killed them all, and the subsequent films take place in a universe where humans are extinct.

A Lilo and Stitch double feature for @Vyse Inglebard to try and offset some of the sadness that’s been going on in the Disney General thread.

This is why if you’re a lesbian you need to avoid “queer” communities because they inherently do not respect you nor your sexuality, it’s just a club for a bunch of gross troons and pooners who will unsympathetically run roughshod over all your boundaries.

Nobody likes trannys

I have never met an autist who doesn’t like trains. On a serious note, if someone wants something less stereotypical, ships are good. The ship/boat fandom is so full of autism.

I'm leaning towards "too bad, but no".

If you’re that fucked up about it, find another hobby. Otherwise you’re paying $60-80 to watch a movie if you’re just curious about the story. And don’t make me link that video of the disabled guy beating the Corrupted Monk.

I can understand it, tbh.

In your real farm, it floods, it doesn't rain for years on end, your crops are eaten by insects, the government is always bitching about the pesticides and fertilisers you use, the only labourers you can get are dodgy as fuck, wild dogs kill your sheep, your bull keeps trying to kill you, your tractor keeps breaking down... you're running and running just to stay in one spot, just like the Red Queen. But in your farming sim, the weather's perfect, there's no bugs, no government, each crop is perfect and sells for the same amount each time, the animals are cute and non homicidal and you don't have to shovel their shit everyday. Your bank balance irl is permanently in the red, but at least you're a successful farmer somewhere, even if it's just in a computer game.

It's basically like a man married to an ugly wife who won't put out watching porn, or a woman married to a boring, neglectful husband reading shitty romance novels.

They pick fights over the stupidest shit.

Somehow I don't think the people yelling about how white people are appropriating indigenous american magical practices and religion [...] would be very sympathetic to the argument that the tv show The Boys is culturally appropriating the comic book it was based on.

The issue is that saying certain words is thought by some to risk summoning something, or otherwise violate a boundary that is supposed to be kept. Eurasia probably had similar taboos or practices around this, too, with the word "bear" coming from an epithet for the animal meaning "the brown one". There are things that are just not supposed to be spoken of.

So, what word do I need to say to summon a bear to my location

While that is part of the popularized version of the legend, acting like native people today are living in fear of summoning the wendigo is as ridiculous as claiming that "bloody mary" is a taboo and that every time you say it online you're oppressing white americans by triggering their anxiety that a ghost will come out of the mirror to kill them.

"Arktos" is thought to be the original word for bear, or closely related to it. It's where we get the term "Arctic", referring to the pole at which bears can be found, as opposed to the "Antarctic" where they cannot.

I get it too, but from a less pessimistic perspective. Doing things you're good at IRL in video games might just be a form of abstract adjacent to your main business "what if" scenarios without actually having a need or interest to pursue that thing in real life. Sometimes it's just nice to have a successful fantasy instead of a tangible real life success.

Someone who I care a great deal for is a real, living Indigenous person for whom this is a genuine concern and taboo, and I know they're not the only one to hold this belief to this day. It's the least someone can do to respect this belief. If an older traditional Christian woman felt genuine fear that speaking of "the devil" would summon it, I would respect that, too. Beliefs like these aren't relics of a bygone era, they are still an active part of some people's beliefs and understandings of reality to this day.
