“media litteracy” is becoming a problem and popular media is following the trend. They appeal to the uneducated, the media itself is calling you too stupid to read between the lines. There have always been gay characters in media, and If they wrote a better character youd know they were gay without It being so in your face about it. So yes its annoying. Youd hate a villian saying “Im the bad guy” all the same. which is the problem. They are litterally doing that not just with lgbtq stuff
my original comment was only meant to offend you IF you cant see the flaw in your reasoning, and want to continue being upset about gay and diverse shit in media.
If youre still lost, Idk man, I tried. I did call you stupid though Ill apologize for that, sincerely.
Edit: added what is in Itallics
Im confused. My point was that the purpose of the scene was exactly to get the child to ask the parent about a heavy topic ( lesbian mothers and IVF). This could very well be the first movie to represent this, im not sure why thats relavent. I would think its unhealthy for a kid to go about modern life without being at least a mild understanding of alternate lifestyles. Ignorance classically promotes bigotry, fear, shame.
Nowhere in the scene or interview does it make any claims that this is physically possible without outside intervention. Assuming snoop is living under a rock and doesnt know about IVF. It would still be important for him to learn and look it up for his own intrests and the intrest of the kid who is asking.
Again, If it annoys you ignore it. My previous statement was a conditional. IF you think this way THEN yes Im calling you stupid. There is so much classic and alternative media that have not been taken over by corporations. Complaining that the for profit companies are making profitable buisness decisions… what else is new? Are you such a slave to the corps that you cant find anything else to read, watch or play?
I never said that you are opposed to progressive media, im just calling you media illiterate. Seeing as you misinterpreted my entire comment… I wasnt far off.
obviously there is a time and place for these conversations, a theater is not the place. but on the otherhand he litterally says he told the kid to shush and eat popcorn. Whereas your dad or my mom would have have explained on the spot. The only excuse I can see is that its his grandson and maybe he isnt sure how his parents would react to him teaching him this stuff. but to me Its a serious enough topic that it should be explained at least later by them. Even if he isnt homophobic dancing around the topic certainly is.
Childrens media often covers serious topics like, death, mental health, divorce, bullying, diversity, disabilities to name a few. Its litterally designed to make kids ask questions like this. I dont think hed Ignore any questions on these topics. Infact theres probably 100s of examples he could have used when his own kids or grandkids asked heavy questions. Why did this stick out in his mind? The interviewers first example of this was anxiety, which is a much more reasonable approach to this conversation of “should we be putting this stuff in kids media?”
Also I just watched the clip from buzz lightyear for additional context. and my previous statement assuming adoption was not an option because it depicts the pregnancy and raising of the child. So I was off quite off base there.

Okay valid. but my point was that children arent stupid. I believe you as that 5 year old would have assumed adoption. I actually had this experience as a child, I knew a kid with two moms and from what i remember noone asked her how she was made. Questions were generally about whos the more masculine or feminine, or why they picked eachother and not just found husbands.
Maybe im way off base, and if i am i apologize. I just have to assume this story was manufactured to stir up contraversy. It reeks of the classic look what my kid wrote/drew to make some political point “even a kid understands this, see?”.
If something feels forced then simply dont consume it. People are bitching about the most inert shit on the planet. If they cant write a character that is gay without having a “civil rights lesson” then its just shitty writing. These themes have been explored for years In well written media. The problem is that media litteracy is so low that we are pandering the media to the lowest common denomintator. No offense but, If that isnt obvious… you might be part of the problem.
Noone pointing out that this story is bullshit? If the kid knows how a baby was made, and understands enough that biologically speaking that it would be “impossible”. The kid did not fucking ask that.
As much as I liked snoop as a kid we all knew that death row was full of shitty people who would do anything to get ahead. Suge knight would have his goons violently “handle” buisness afairs, and many people believe that he had Tupac killed. Snoop and Suge later “squashed the beef”. Which is insane considering the allegations. He’s scared to go to the movies, but will pal around with potential murderers? Okay Snoop.
At this point we should all view snoop as a made up character. Hes in so many good works of art gorillaz, trailer park boys, the boondocks and so on. All of which’s creators would hate what hes said here and go against the messages of the works of media hes helped produce. Hes desperately trying to stay relevent, I think this is just another way of keeping his name in the loop. Pathetic.
Ai: Left turn off the bridge here!
Youll seem smart but youre just going to be a flesh puppet to the AI. and the AI itself will have to be powered from a server so if that goes down your critical thinking, reasoning, and infinite repository of info disapears. Not to mention the repository of info is the internet and we all know how reliable people can be.
“Hey man do you know a good recipe for pizza?”
“Glue cheese, sand in the dough and small rocks to top it all off. Let me know if you have any other questions, Im glad to help!”
THE B&E JOKE! I actually still love this, his brand of over the top energy doesn’t always hit but the story really matches the energy. thank you for the laughs!
The link Is to a john mulaney bit where he has a friend who steals irreplacable family photos. Just to prove that this kind of senseless protest (like stealing a microwave dish or remote batteries) is infact comedy. I Have seen the bit you are referencing tho. I cannot remember the comedian for the life of me. I want to say dane cook but i havent watched him in YEARS and i cant find it.
Gotta take tv remotes, they are generally really expensive to replace with the new smart tvs, and the victim will assume that they or someone in the household has lost it. Theres also this https://youtu.be/wu-7soEIHgY
Not even close, columns and rows are horribly offset
My guess is that its AI with a blur filter over it to hide mistakes. The right leg looks fked up to me.
Really cool to finally see some other camera work from the people who take ufo photos
I am also hoping and waiting for a modchip or exploit. I’m curious to see what the hardware can actually do when its removed from the chains of big N.
Hell Yeah, genuinely felt like everyone around me caved the boycott within a week. Nice to see the few still holding out.
Im encountering alot of AI created websites that explain concepts like “side effects of X pill” (a recent example) and there was basically no real medical websites in the top results, Just clearly AI using thousands of words to say nothing that I cant trust.
I was considering locally hosting a search engine to circumvent my need for them entirely. Search engine optimization seems like a nightmare, if they were trying to give me useful results. So im not sure if that would be a spend 5 hours to save 5 minutes situation.
As you and others said, Its been getting worse for years so its probably just a coincidence that its also profitable for AI.
