The Rogue storyline proves that New Who has a writing problem that has nothing to do with being too woke, and, in fact, at least in parts more with being not woke enough. What reason could there be to hint at, introduce, develop, carry out, end, and bury a love interest all within one single episode, if not as concession for people against those story line to be able to avoid it altogether? Disney isn't actually progressive, they never were, and where corporate pride/POC representation is implemented it's because the cost calculation tells them it pays off, not because they actually represent any of those values.

The Doctor would never give up on anyone. Heck, in the next episode he cried more about some random guard post than the man who proposed to him. Until he at least attempts to get Rogue back I will have to assume the Doctor has either been replaced by some kind of doppelganger, or the writers at Disney lack the balls to actually portray a modern and gay Doctor after all.

Weil für die innere Uhr das Aufstehen bei Tageslicht vs. Dunkelheit viel relevanter ist als die Länge der hellen Feierabende. (Und die sind im Winter eh dunkel, selbst unter Sommerzeit.)

Wissenschaftlich ist das auch nicht umstritten. Kannst gern selbst suchen (zum Beispiel mit dem Begriff "permanent daylight saving time" auf Google Scholar, hier z.B. ein Studienergebnis von 2022). Erfahrungsgemäß sind Menschen ihre persönlichen Erlebnisse oder Anekdoten, wie deine aus Spanien, am Ende ja meistens wichtiger, insofern rechne ich eher nicht damit, hier jetzt großartig Meinungen ändern zu können, finde aber wichtig es immer wieder mal zu platzieren. Könnte ja z.B. gut sein, dass es für dich in Spanien noch andere Faktoren fürs Wohlbefinden gab - zum Beispiel die Tatsache, dass du im sommerlich südlichen Spanien warst und es eh wärmer und heller hattest. Wissenschaftlich spricht das meiste für die dauerhafte Normalzeit, und nicht für Sommerzeit. Und das ist zumindest ne Perspektive, die man berücksichtigen sollte.

Sommerzeit im Winter würde dieses Problem nicht nur verschlimmern, sondern die psychisch anstrengende Zeit im Jahr auch deutlich verlängern. Du würdest noch früher im Jahr im Dunkeln starten und erst später wieder mit Tageslicht aufwachen können, und im tiefsten Winter müsstest du gefühlt mitten in der Nacht aufwachen.

Dunklere, längere Winter wären der Haupteffekt der dauerhaften Sommerzeit, und eben nicht ein bisschen mehr Sommer-Feeling im Winter, was viele fälschlicherweise zu hoffen scheinen.

And it can mean building something with them and then talking about how they are. I work closely together with OTs who do exactly that.

And it already exists, called occupational therapy or ergotherapy.

That wouldn't be a problem at all if we had better science journalism. Every psychologist knows that "a study showed" means nothing. Consensus over several repeated studies is how we approximate the truth.

The psychological methodology is absolutely fine as long as you know it's limitations and how to correctly apply it. In my experience that's not a problem within the field, but since a lot of people think psychology = common sense, and most people think they excel at that, a lot of laypeople overconfidently interpret scientific resultst which leads a ton of errors.

The replication crisis is mainly a problem of our publications (the journals, how impact factors are calculated, how peer review is done) and the economic reality of academia (namely how your livelihood depends on the publications!), not the methodology. The methods would be perfectly usable for valid replication studies - including falsification of bs results that are currently published en masse in pop science magazines.

HawlSera is generalising feminists, while at the same time critizising them for generalising.

Sorry, thats just not a perspective that deserves to be respected. It deserves to be corrected and criticized.

You seem to have left the conversation about the topic at hand altogether if the only thing you're willing to talk about is her background.

[–] Mrs_deWinter@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Now you've lost me - should we all be held to the same standard or should OP be exempt from the general rules of decency because of their background?

Because if we're talking about the standard of "unfair generalisations are unfair, don't do it" (which is what I've been talking about, don't know about you) then Queen HawlSera clearly failed to meet it.

The alternative is not what youre thinking likely. The alternative is something more nuanced than this-or-that thinking. Something where everyone that’s not bigoted is recognized and considered. Not just a single group.

But working against feminism is bigoted. I feel sorry if someone acts destructively because they had a horrible childhood - nevertheless, acting destructively in itself shouldn't be tolerated.

I mean who actually benefits from ruining the reputation of feminism? Probably the very people who hurt Queen HawlSera as a child. We're not doing kids like her any favors by allowing that.

Proof that if you don’t tow the party line, it doesn’t matter what your background is.

Well, yeah? What's the alternative? "If we like your background it doesn't really matter what positions you hold - trans people should be allowed generalise a bit and trash feminism, as a treat"?!

I'm queer myself. I will hold you responsible for your words, no matter your background. Especially when it comes to feminism. And that obviously includes women of all backgrounds. If anything I expect more solidarity from them, not less.

Or at least develop a decent recurring character and relationship. As it stands this will be the second instance of blatant queerbating in Doctor Who. Gatwa deserves better - we all do!

 

The print on my new sweater is giving me a headache.
