Going to go out on a limb here and guess she meant she's a girl and a lesbian, but isn't anime. Science, unfortunately, hasn't gone far enough.

Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? No, says the man on Wall Street; it belongs to the shareholders.

Yeah I agree this seems more like tech debt and possibly a shitty architecture to me, both problems that ultimately come from poor management. The codebase I'm responsible for at work was developed in a mad rush, and the levels of pointless coupling and interdependence sometimes makes it hard to change anything without spending forever tracking down all the stupid little places that piece was touching. That shit comes from management pushing you to just do the thing already and move on, which works for a while until things get so messy you have to slow down or spend some time on a refactor. Someone could easily have made a technical decision for the sake of expedience, which was then built upon and became interconnected with other things in a way that made changing it require a major change, which of course no manager will support, so the work gets broken up into 100 tiny stupid tickets trying to move toward adding the new feature without ever making a breaking change, slowing down the whole thing even more.

I notice you're out of the loop. The market demographics they're referring to are trans women. It's a bit of a meme that trans women like monster zero ultra, and trans women want estrogen not testosterone. Hope that helps.

Yeah honestly it doesn't seem like a good thing. If they don't cancel it after one season, how long till they enshittify it with their stupid fucking Netflix rules? How long until some executive doesn't like the message they're sending and meddles? How long until the creators leave over creative differences, leaving Netflix to parade the hollowed out taxidermy husk stuffed with product placement and ad space until no one watches anymore?

I wish people would stop using catbox.moe. It is always unavailable. I don't even know how you're uploading things there if it's constantly unavailable. I want to look but I can't. Like wtf.

If only they would get the message and leave me alone...

The immortal ones keep forgetting to reproduce so only the mortal ones do.

On the drawing too loud, that could easily be an undiagnosed neurodivergent person with auditory sensitivity. People who are unaware of their neurodivergence can sometimes be the biggest assholes about it. I also have auditory sensitivity and it gets much worse and harder to deal with when I'm stressed and/or sleep deprived. In that state persistent irregular noises are much more likely to make me have a meltdown, especially if I can't escape. For someone who doesn't know what's happening and doesn't have healthy coping strategies that situation can easily become a meltdown directed at the most immediate irritant, in this case their child, which is really awful for the child. I was in that position a lot as a kid and it fucking sucks. I hated my parents. I'm not sure I can ever forgive them for how they treated me but I know now it wasn't malicious. Still, the damage was done.

A lot. The answer is it could fuck things up a lot worse than what we have.

Filibuster everything. Literally everything that can be filibustered. See how fast we get rid of the filibuster.

Yo ho yo ho a pirates life for me
