    From what I can remember, the simbolism is stronger in the first movie and not so much on the other two. I recall two key things that can simbolize the struggle trans people go through or are references to transgenderism.

    • Neo feels that there is something wrong with the world and that he does not belong in it
    • The Character Switch was originally supposed to be a man in the real world and a woman when plugged in to the matrix.

    I’m sure there’s more but it’s been a while since I came across the analysis.

    Worth noting that when I watched the movies I never made an association with transgenderism. I think in great part because I was not even aware of it.

    For the ones wanting to get into One Piece but are discouraged by the episode count there’s a project called “One Pace” that heavily edits the episodes in order to have a faster pace.

    I have a friend that wanted to watch but never had the will to start. After watching the Netflix show he got inspiration to start and when searching where to watch he came across this project. Its not perfect since there are some arcs not covered but it does a very good job trimming down the anime antics and focusing on the core.


  • From grades 1 to 4 (6 to 9 years of age) we had the same teacher. She was fine for the first 3 years but somthing must have happened because during the last year she completely changed.

    That last year is still burned in my mind. She would verbally and physically assault us at the minimum mistake. For example, when she was delivering tests she had us go to her to pick it up and the ones with average or bad grades would get a knuckle punch to the forehead (it hurt like hell).

    Slapping was common occurance, as in several times a day. She also once broke a plastic ruler on a girls head for speaking out of turn and banged another girls head onto the blackboard several times because she was writing with too small letters.

    One of the worst things I recall involved the special needs kid. I don’t remember what condition he had, just that he had no understanding of social rules and also had trouble reading. One day this kid decides to climb on the toilet and look at a girl that was peeing (the closed toilets to the classroom were unisex). The girl came crying to the teacher and she proceeded to grab the kid by the ear and twisted it hard. While he was crying is hear out, she pulled down his pants and underwear and slapped his ass several times. He was quite never the same after that…

    The worst part? Telling my parents about this and them thinking I was crazy because there was no way a teacher would behave like this.

    Luckly that was the last year and I moved to another school but the memories remain.

    If you’re still alive, fuck you Lena.







  • I don’t scroll through reddit anymore but will use it if a friend shares a link or when looking for something. It was hard the first few days as I found myself opening Sync only to be greeted by the goodbye message. Safe to say I was quite addicted to doom scrolling but happy to have stopped.

    Been using Jerboa for 2 weeks now and have not doom scrolled yet, feels good
