Kaycee7: First episode was alright. Haven't seen anything yet that'll make me recommend it to somebody. Lemme watch this week's episode sha Kowloon Generic Romance has started without much fanfare. Possibly because some no-name studio is behind production. Hopefully, I can get some extra time off work this Easter to watch all this stuff. |

This movie has better reviews than it's nonsensical plot would suggest.
I guess I can say that was moderately entertained. The performances were good enough and the director was straight-up showing off at some points. These two elements hard-carried the almost comically bad plot

ValeeLove: thirsty? But really seeing people constantly attend to wrestlers simply because of how sexy they are isn't a good look. What ever happened to talent? TNA. Don't worry, I make this joke all the time for more than just wrestling |

And on the ref's TV debut too, smh |

ValeeLove: you and I know that's not his wrestling works. Remember what Cena did when Randy attacked his dad. Why is the rule changing all of a sudden? It's making the guys look weak and stupid. That's my interpretation. He never thought he was good enough to beat Gunther. He was even afraid but now that Gunther has basically done his worst, he is saving up all that rage for the WrestleMania match because taking the title is the best revenge against someone like Gunther. And it would mean Jimmy didn't die in vain. It's classic storytelling. Reminds me of the final book of the first Mistborn trilogy. Basically, the protagonist's husband is killed by the bad guy during the final act and that's when she realizes that she has nothing else to lose and guess for a full kamikaze attack, killing them both. Basically, Gunther just inadvertently put Jey in the right mindset to beat him. |

Kidskywalker: I know for a fact that I did a backup of mihon last night before formatting my phone yet I can't find it anywhere on my google account. So I'll have to start afresh and I can't remember all the manga I was reading/yet to read so please guys give me some manga suggestions. As far as I know, Mihon doesn't back up to your Google Drive. It backs up to your device storage. Personally, I use Foldersync to sync the backups to my Google Drive. |

Samistry2: I've been on this forum for over 12 years and this week is the first time, that I have ever feared for the safety of my account. If you're not, I apologize. But, what did I ever do in this world to deserve an empty-headed fucking dumbfuck like spambot, fucking go in to business for himself and superkick me out, for what? What did I do, ValeeLove? What did I ever do? Didn't do a damn thing. I'm hurt, I'm old and I'm fucking tired. I work with argumentative people. I turned to the head mod and said, ‘This place is a f**king joke. You’re a clown. I quit.' |

decent movie, minus the gåy shenanigans I read the webcomic of this over a decade ago. This was before Webtoons became a thing in the English speaking world so the artists would host their comics elsewhere or have their own sites. I think the site name was Gingerhaze. Still crazy that the artist went on to become a movie director. |

othermen: She was right to condemn child labour. She was right to protect the child. She was right to hold her accountable. She was right to raise awareness.
You and others are not right to bully her. Calling her cruel and uncompassionate. And Adetoun was not right to cave in, as she did.
A child should not be waking up at 3AM to sweep an estate when they should be resting and preparing for school. The mother continues to give birth, and she must care for all of them in this crazy economy. Enough to rebuke her for being selfish and not having parental responsibility. She can’t possibly provide for the four children: education, healthcare or stable upbringing, -and the children are put in the cycle of poverty.
But it doesn’t matter to us all. And it never matters to us all, unless it’s an opportunity for us to proclaim ourselves some form of messiah. Or it will matter to some of you, only because you will fancy your parents or parents struggles in that woman. So, this will not merely seem to you to be detached from reality, but an attack on your ideals or parents. And you will say, how can one not sympathize with the poor mother? You were successful, but millions more have failed just coz of this shared hardship you perpetuate and justify. You became stronger and wiser, but millions more were permanently harmed and lost their future. Your experience of the struggle does not drive an iota of awareness to share an advocacy for the children. Rather, than pointing out the gaps in the woman’s behavior and having an outrage for the systemic issues that have caused hardship, your sense is wired to think ‘hardship is a rite of passage, because from it, I gained my resilience.’ It’s this mindset that creates an ideology that does not resist systemic issues. And one must not question or challenge an oppressive system that is perpetuated by ignorance just because she is a poor woman. A child helping a struggling parent in small ways is one thing, but you all think waking up at 3 AM for labour is right. You don’t care what sleep deprivation could do to her physical health, her concentration. a girl that is already malnourished must be further exposed to harsh conditions, and when she is exhausted, to poor academic performance, to limits in future opportunities.
So he tells us that the child is working out of economic necessity. And that the mother needs compassion.
So others will argue that the focus of the video, should have been on the economic hardship that people have to endure. Instead, Adetoun was just a villain, an oppressor, as she could have engaged the cleaner/mother privately and not publicly shame her, or be condescending in her approach. she had not cared about the dignity of the mother, and she only humiliated her, rather than empower her.
Adetoun capitulated coz the validation from social media matters. That was why she did the video in the first place. Not because she gave a damn about the child’s life. Than the aftermath. The crying and kneeling and wailing. All in the very manipulative lots.
Folks pushed her to reveal her performative righteousness.
And because validation matters to her- she rewarded this woman after the backlash. It alleviated her immediate struggles.
The country also shows its false outrage, as though her situation is not the lots of millions of people in the country. We pretend that suffering is not the norm for the lots. Or that the mother was justified.
Adetoun received more outrage than we give to those who orchestrated policies that have entrenched sufferings.
Now, there are other struggling women who have not made their children work, but remain unseen and unsupported. And nobody cares about them. They were unsure about the tactics of giving birth to many kids, then using those kids or maiming them to generate some form of income on the streets.
Now, Onakoya, who is another person wired for validation sees an opportunity, to enrich his own social capital. And yes, I must thank him. Someone else can cater for the 3 siblings or for the children and their mothers that now sweep and wash the gutters that his mother washed, the children from the north that are your domestic servants, or the children I won’t see tomorrow, for they already died in hazardous child labour.
There are several children, women in this country, with much worse fate. But they are not on social media or the source of any social capital: Mr Onakoya and all of us can’t care as there’s no social recognition. Performative altruism which doesn’t fix the individual choices/ structural conditions that have birth the situation or made suffering into some spectacle is what we are enthralled. A miracle, a divine intervention.
What have I ever done to contribute to the alleviation of situations of people?? Nothing superficial and performative.
And you would find folks out there creating awareness and bringing about genuine changes for thousands of lives. Even saving them from death. Not just jumping in spaces, and using these vulnerable lots to enrich themselves. A nuanced and well thought out take right here. |

ValeeLove: newly formed wrestlers except Jade Cargill. AJ Styles turned out fine. Besides Swerves has already been there and won a championship. His boys Hit Row got to the main roster. Surely he deserves to go there. I'm taking about him complaining that he was being given instructions in NXT. Of course, AJ Styles, who was arguably the best wrestler in the world at the time, got into the main roster directly. But the fact of the matter is that guys experienced guys like Samoa Joe, Bobby Roode, Nakamura, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Johnny Gargano, etc also had to go through NXT. |
