whats the book of Henry?
My memory is a bit fuzzy but:

A movie that seems to be one of those quirk kids movies but is instead insane. A kinda ditzy mom has a super brain genius son who basically runs their household (like in a good way, he's nice and does their finances and helps his mom. ...the mom is really portrayed as being really not on the ball). He gets sick, kinda realizes he's gonna die, then writes up a book of stuff for his mom to do, then dies.

This includes an elaborate murder plan for her to kill the abusive stepfather of a girl he likes because he's pretty much 100% sure he's molesting/beating her.

I'm only scratching my head because of the dude who caught splash damage firing just from agreeing with her.

Price just seems like kind of an rear end in a top hat from older tweets I'm seeing so I'm not shocked if she wasn't great to work with and management was basically "enough of this already" since who cares about mmo lore

The reason that anyone talking about The Last Jedi is insufferable is because the movie is so mediocre it literally doesn't warrant discussion or controversy

I would. This isn't that much far away from Pence not wanting to be alone with women, it's a roadblock in the path of women getting cross-exposure, which can be vital for reaching new audiences. Nobody should be legitimizing this kind of thing.

The personalities and audiences are a problem but the huge issue is how insanely terrible the platforms themselves are at giving tools to people to deal with the lovely parts of it and how those platforms do almost no policing themselves.

Like do you think Twitter is ever going to get better? Especially with Jack at the helm? What do you even do besides just not use Twitter or limit how you engage? Like this isn't rhetorical, I really don't know what's within the power of individual users in many circumstances.

the core thing being discussed here is that ninja won't stream with women. some of us are saying, "well, he should"

where am I wrong about what's being said?
My answer at least is that it's none of your or anyone's business who he wants or doesn't want to stream with. I'm not the one who turned it into a thing that seemingly has this huge implication for the internet at large.

It's loving weird and puritanical but I just don't see the controversy.
