I probably shouldn't upvote people just because they say the first thought that crossed my mind.

Shouldn't athletes expecting to medal just want to skip the competition and go straight to the podium? I mean, that's the reward, right? It is pretty easy to come up with many other analogs where there is a reward/goal that would feel hollow without whatever experience precedes it.

The branding is very consistent and the about page mentions US Congress funding. You can stop now.

Bring me everyone.

I know a bunch of these do the annoying YouTube thumbnail thing that is very much adjacent to your complaint but I would argue they do a pretty good job of being excited about the topic but not overly dramatic in the presentation during the actual video.

If you just want to learn about astrophysics. Many build on each other so you might want to consider watching a bunch of the early ones first.

Engineering. This guy's voice annoys me but some of the videos are still quite interesting so I linked this specific one about exactly how train wheels/tracks work. Never would have guessed the level of design involved.

Which makes it extra funny because they're on a space station not a ship like the other treks. I choose to believe it was foreshadowing that they were going to move the space station to the wormhole and there would be sloshing and turbulence when that happened. It's just solid planning.

Pog mo thoin! I only remember the rude stuff. Literally read a bumper sticker like one time and it never left after over 20 years.

The obsolete skills they are learning are "prompt engineer".

Some of these might be a little more like 8 than 5 because they have storybook-scary but still mentioning for you to have a look and decide.

Technically not female lead but kinda close and definitely age-appropriate:

Chicory - From creators on Wandersong + Celeste. Not positive your character is canonically female but let's just call it very plausible and you are filling in for the titular character who is called "she".
Donut County (technically the male racoon is the main character but the only human and next-most important character is female)
Journey (likely canonically no specific gender but great game, no dialog and could easily interpret as female if you choose)

Not what you asked for but maybe consider:

Beglitched - No human characters other than the player, puzzle game with pink and purple hacker aesthetic.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime - Androgynous animals and humans pilot a wacky ship in 4 player co-op lots of hearts.

I'm genuinely curious what you think democrats could do legally that they aren't. I understand that many underestimated Trumps chances and true danger in 2015-2016 but what is this principled resistance that isn't happening?

This sounds like obvious sealioning but I've got a minute so I'll take the bait. If everyone applies that mentality it will almost always lead to the tyranny of the majority. What will cause a group that has even a slim majority to understand and take into account the needs of the minority. How will the majority even know there is a problem if the minority doesn't (as you say) "complain to everyone else". Just like the poster depicted says "so what" about it being gay being a choice, I don't care whether people define that stance as "homophobia". I do care that they understand why they shouldn't do it.
