Also check out non-Western cinema superhero movies if you want just a fresh take and not necessarily a parody. The Krrish movies and Hanu Man from Indian cinema are first to mind. They do sometimes embrace/subvert/parody American superhero film tropes.
What do you mean by "minimize/abolish"?
Absolutely the fuck not should we be "abolishing" any personal identity labels.
That doesn't mean you can't think some labels are excessive, even stupid. And it doesn't mean you can't tell a queer person to their face you won't use their niche label. Just like they're free to think of you as an asshole and even tell you to your face that they think you're an asshole.
Rule 6 - one could post a [meta] post to comment on this sub and it's rules instead of distracting from the parent post (potential rule 8 vio if the mods were really particular). I would encourage you to [meta] post and propose the new rule or amended rule you think would address the problem you have with this sub; don't just complain, try to make the community in better. (And since you're new to Lemmy, please be aware "well, reddit did it this way" does not carry water with a lot of folks here. I would encourage you to include more independent justification for your proposed rule).
Or one could try to argue I violated rule 5 for "promoting an agenda" but since the Wikipedia article specifically mentions Trump as an example of the technique, I think any such argument would be a stretch. Again, up to how particular our mods are.
Didn't the signing bonus hit after some months to a year on the job? Of course Trump and team would try to wlech on it as much as possible and fire people before bonuses got paid out.
I've had more painful and seen more incompetence on the medical professionals' side, but my methacholine challenge as part of asthma diagnosis always stands out for the blatant malpractice.
I was a kid, probably range of 9-12 years old. They exposed me to something that eventually triggers an asthma reaction in anyone, just a matter of how much it takes to be considered "asthmatic". Then they left me in the room alone while the test ran. I posted about it once as a sanity check. It's a legitimate test, from what I've been able to find, just not the part when they leave an underage patient unattended to deal with the inevitable asthma attack alone.
A high school classmate. We went to a Catholic high school. She came back years later, broke into the school over a weekend with a crew to film her debut porn shoot. The school tried to keep it quiet, but c'mon, I'm sure every student and half the alumni from previous 5 years knew about it before classes started the following Monday.
Actual human responses, including real apologies at times when someone takes a comment the wrong way and then admits they did so. Never in all my years on the other platform did I see that happen.
For sure. And my sister just told me she already read it and also agrees 😂. Of course she would have found it quicker than me...
I recently finished this and have to agree with your review. Long, but good for the detailed world fantasy folks.
I have a sister in academia who has gone through some rough patches and burnout. I think she would get a giggle out of the comparisons from academia to the circles of hell.
I'm not a biologist nor chemist, but worked for a while as a manufacturing and design engineer making laboratory equipment they would use so feel like I have slightly above average exposure to labs. I also took at least three undergrad classes in which we used bunsen burners in our labs. I have never heard this decontamination theory before and it sounds like BS.
Are there any practicing chemists or biologists on here? This sounds like something that would have been removed from actual laboratory practices a century ago and someone just wrote this quirky story for clicks, downplaying how much the practice is already long gone.
The stars are gone. The planets have disappeared. Only those aboard space stations or starships were left to witness the universe dim, giving the end a name: The Quiet Rapture. Now, humanity decays in the rusting halls of crumbling stations, scavenging barren moons by the ghost light of long-vanished stars. But one moon stands apart. In the darkness of the void, a scanner detects an impossibility: an ocean of blood. In a desperate bid for survival, the last remnants of humanity craft a crude submarine to explore the bleeding depths. They weld one soul inside to pilot it. But as the hatch is sealed, the terrifying reality sets in. Hope in this void is as illusionary as the starlight. This is not an expedition. This is an execution.

Hopefully there are others who can speak with more knowledge on this.
Isn't one of the problems that aircraft don't have consistent, modern transponders so that they can be reliably seen by the towers? I think that was part of the DC crash between passenger plane and helicopter, no? ATC didn't have good visibility of the helicopter, so they told the plane and the helicopter to just watch out for each other visually.
I don't see AI helping all that much until all aircraft are retrofitted with modern transponders.
