Proper form is essential to running. There are so many people jogging out there with bad form and little do they know it does them more harm than good.

I personally think it isn’t wise to use an actor of any race in substitute of another, if that character’s race is part of the story. The only reason I could think of to change the character’s race, gender, status, etc. would perhaps be to tell a different story, but then it should be renamed and be a different story. But if a character’s race, gender, status, etc. is tied to that character’s story, then it shouldn’t be discarded frivolously.

From what I see, I feel that a lot of the disconnect is based on whether people find an attribute (in this case, race) important or not as part of the character’s story.

Yes, and I loved that they wrote the black samurai character into that game to tell that story! I don’t get your point?

But magic doesn’t have any grounding or association with the world as we know it. Neither does aliens. We can only use the world as we know it as a frame of reference for a story.

I’d argue in lbaudia’s example that it is confusing if in 12th century Mongolia, there was some Nordic guy walking around, I’d imagine there to be a backstory of some kind. If there wasn’t, then that would definitely be an example where I’d be annoyed at white people in fiction.

I thought a great example of casting was the TV show “The Expanse”. To be able to cast someone as specific as Bobbie Draper so well - these studios have no excuse to whitewash as they do except laziness.

100 brands? One hundred ??

The Sphinx would be proud.

Exactly what this reminded me of. Thanks.

It took me way too long to see that. Thank you 🙏

What on earth is happening with the leg(?) ??

I just realized you meant data deduplication instead of “not duped by you bitches anymore”

This^. You don’t have to use YT.

Even uniformity can be aesthetically pleasing, but these icons are decidedly not.

Is there a reason the car looks like it’s giving up its physical body and becoming a spectral?

you want to blame capitalism and only capitalism, not corrupt politicians, not their policies, not their agendas.

Could you not say that the forces of capitalism have brought about the greed, justification, etc. that leads to corrupt politicians, policies, agendas?

How many different ways can you post these?

That one looks smug

All of the above is concerning.
