I am a spectacularly bad poster and everyone in the Schadenfreude thread hates my guts.
I would hate to think I'm on the hook for every idiot opinion anyone I was tangentially related to 8 years ago espoused recently, and 'dating' means precisely gently caress all regarding how well you know someone, unless you regularly open your first date with a long list of check boxes making sure they agree with you on every issue you're passionate about.

Also the trump years definitely broke a lot of people's brains who would have appeared normal beforehand, outing yourself as a conspiracy theory/nazi apologist has become so much more popular and easier lately, additionally I highly doubt Henry Cavill (who generally comes across as likeable, well intentioned, yet naive and very privileged) and Gina Carano were having in depth conversations about pronouns and trans rights in their limited time together

And even if they were, if you're expecting Henry Cavill to be the wokest dude ever then you're probably going to be disappointed. But he at least seems to have learned when to shut up about social issues he doesn't grasp since his embarrassing #metoo contributions.

You can still like the guy and appreciate his thick slab of an rear end while acknowledging he's made dumbass comments on things in the past, but that he dated someone ages ago who has recently said some awful poo poo is basically irrelevant in judging the guy (or indeed anyone)

I am reminded of someone who, a year and a half in, decided completely out of the blue to tell me that she didn't believe that women really should be allowed vote. I have no idea how she decided it was the appropriate time to drop that into the conversation, but decide she did.

I find it interesting that in a discussion about wokeness, it’s acceptable to say this in a way that saying “you can still like the girl and appreciate her magnificent tits while acknowledging blah blah blah” would never be accepted.

I said something like this once, I think in The Good Place thread, and one of the replies was from a perspective I hadn't thought of before -- it's more gross to talk about a woman like that because women have historically been treated like their magnificent tits were the only worthwhile thing about them. Whereas openly talking about the asses of good-looking men is a pretty new thing, and tends not to dehumanize them the way it would for a woman because society is already primed to appreciate men for their intellect and abilities.

The Y-wing is the workhorse of the Rebel fleet. It’s not quick or flashy, but it gets the job done. The armor on this ship is extensive, and the shields will protect you from just about anything, which is good because you won’t be going anywhere fast. The Y-wing is used mainly as a bomber, because it can carry a heavy payload of missiles, torpedos, and bombs. The other important weapon is the top-side ion cannon, which rather than destroying a target can disable it for later capture. Our cannons have a computer assisted auto-fire feature, so don’t forget that when you’re in the heat of battle.

You could also picture Darth Vader as having an English country accent, since David Prowse, his physical actor, had a regional accent and thought for most of production that he'd be the one voicing Vader going off urban legend. You can hear a bit of his spoken voice in clips like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQFho0_G1VI. Which, I'm not surprised that they replaced his voice honestly, since his voice doesn't have the depth and gravitas associated with Vader at the very least. It's hard to know how it'd be received when you know what it could be, but it doesn't seem nearly as menacing or iconic at the very least.

The Making Of for the BBC Hitch-Hikers series has a great interview with David Learner, who had both played and voiced Marvin in the stage show but was told he wouldn't be doing the voice for TV. Dave Prowse had a small role on the show, and Learner, feeling a little bit of commonality, asked why Prowse hadn't been allowed to do the voice of Vader. Totally deadpan, Prowse replied "Oi really couldn't say".

Vader was never quite as scary to kids in the UK. We all knew he was the Green Cross Code Man.

It might have been a strictly “hot people loving” scenario but maybe they hung out and exchanged anti-Semitic memes about cancel culture, I dunno.

Nah. Don't go there. Just take a look at the Qanoncasualties subreddit to see how many spouses just lost their brains due to Trump and Q. There's a very common theme of "This is 180 of the person I married." Apparently exposure to Q and Trump can turn compassionate and smart people into intolerable hate monsters very quickly.

It's partially this and it's also that Henry evidently does a shitload of working out to get his body in the shape he's in. His roles are defined by his physicality and muscularity that he's actively worked to achieve, so appreciating his rear end is more akin to appreciating talent rather than judging someone on their physical attributes they had no choice over.

Yeah I wasn’t that into Hank before The Witcher (Superman is a dumb character, who cares) and he put out a bunch of videos promoting it and one thing he kept highlighting was that, due to the acrobatic nature of Geralt’s sword fighting style, it was actually his legs, rear end, and hips that needed to do most of the work because he basically always has giant beach arms, but he couldn’t do all the fancy spins and pirrohuettes until he got his butt into “ballet” shape.

It’s not just me lusting after a hunk, it’s the actor literally putting out content directly to his fans saying “I cannot believe how much work I had to do to get my rear end into this shape”

Like, yeah, theoretically we could ALL have bodies like Henry Cavill & the Kardashians, but it's important to highlight when someone's entire career is being in shape, there's literally a team of people's whose career is ALSO keeping that person in shape, it's not like he just went to the gym every day for his whole life and perfectly scultped himself into an adonis.

What you list is maybe 3% progress and 2% motivation, the other 95% is just showing up to the gym, lifting harder than last time, and not eating garbage. And you don't train 6 hours a day because your body and mind will break down, 45m to an hour every other day is plenty of volume, unless you are on steroids then maybe you can recover from 2 hours a day, every day.

What's really impressive is what Pro Wrestlers accomplish without all the machinery that Hollywood employs to make their movie stars hot, since if they're not rich enough to pay for the entire thing on their own dime like a John Cena WWE is too cheap and cruel to help them with it, and they're ALSO on the road in cramped rental cars and lovely hotels all the time and thus cooking their own non-lovely food is closed off to them for a large chunk of the week.

Lmao this is getting was off track from the show.

You can expect the same results, as long as you are willing to do roids, and work hard, there is nothing a chef and nutritionist provide that gives you an edge on anyone, other than convenience, you can literally just add fruits, veggies, and greek yogurt to your meals and snacks, train smart, and see the same gains as HC, no cooking or preparation required.

Access to equipment, responsibilities at home, being tired from working all day... there’s a lot of things that hold a lot of people back from getting into great shape. People do what they can but it takes more sacrifice for a regular person than it does someone who makes their living mostly off their physique. I don’t think that’s discouraging anyone from trying but just saying ‘yeah anyone can do it dummy’ is just as discouraging for people who can’t find the time/energy to get started and past the hump.
