Honestly, I'm disappointed that they stuck with relatively closely clustered stars for their constellations. I want constellations that contain anywhere from 2 adjacent stars representing the Trojan War to 46 stars spanning hemispheres representing a fluffy rabbit or something. Who says constellations can't overlap? Or even share stars? Get more creative, ancient Greeks. Think outside the box.

No I know he wanted to, absolutely. I know he wanted to with every fiber of his being. And I have no doubt that he absolutely would have. But his ex wives also knew what he was.

I heard a woman tell the story of going to Maralago with her teenage daughter and being pulled aside by Mrs. Trump and being told to not let any of he men near her daughter, especially Donald. The former Mrs Trump later denied this publically, but we all know that that happened.

Given they knew, and could almost certainly destroy him if they were inclined, I can see a world where he was told that if he crossed that line, it would be the end of his public reputation and probably his life as a free man. And I can also see him taking out his sexual frustrations on these trafficked girls. I've seen, I think, two separate instances where it's been mentioned that he showed particular interest in blondes or, even more explicitly, a girl that looked like Ivanka and was of a similar age. Dude could have been raping other girls that looked like Ivanka specifically because he couldn't rape his own daughter.

But of course, there is a real possibilities that he did in fact sexually abuse or rape Ivanka. I think it's notable that she doesn't seem to be at all involved in his second administration. And he doesn't mention her much really anymore. Maybe some bad history boiled over? Maybe he crossed that line even now? Idk.

Do you think he ever...?

He is trying to bring about the second coming. If you are an evangelical Christian who genuinely believes you are at the end times, it is unreasonable to be concerned with anything else but contributing to prophecy and siding with "God's people". Particularly as he is getting older and has less and less stake in the future of the Earth, and he's now looking towards his eternal future stake in Heaven.

Given his beliefs, he is acting in the most rational, predictable way. The fact that his beliefs are a fucking farce, and detached from reality, makes his rationale inherently broken. But you will never convince him that his beliefs are wrong.

Lindsey Graham is up for reelection in South Carolina this year.

So knowing those things, knowing that he literally cannot rationally be concerned with your peace, your economy, your welfare, your freedom, or your life when it is compared to the return of his messiah to bring him and all his ilk to God, the most important thing in his faith... why would you vote for him to lead your country? If you also believe the same things as him without a doubt in your mind and wish him to work towards prophecy too, sure, voting for him is entirely rational given the premise. But short of that, if you wish for this country and world to be in good shape when Jesus inevitably doesn't come... if you are a patriotic voter, a conservative, MAGA, moderate or otherwise, that decided before that Graham might be good for this country, then why the hell would you ever give your vote to him again? Someone who admits his only concerns lie with Isreal, US be damned. Who is eagerly looking forward to the apocalypse.

You don't have to hate the guy for practicing his beliefs, but you do need to question why you would ever put him and his beliefs in charge over your future that he very much does not care about. Vote Graham out.

Thanks for the heads up. Not that I would ever buy a vehicle that that Nazi moron had any sway over, but maybe some people will stop paying for his personal RC cars as a result

Uh... why not? Please?

Like... can't we have none of those things?

I have absolutely no concern with adaptations exploring and reimagining the female monster aspect of the story, but calling that a "major plot point" in the original story is a stretch.

The monster demands a bride, Frankenstein starts to make him one, and then realizes that that is a fucking terrible idea and abandons the effort. That's about it. And most of that gets yadda yadda'd through off page, if I recall. He never makes a second monster at all inthe end. Yeah, sure, it pisses off the monster, but he was already pissed so it ultimately changed next to nothing.

The plot literally revolves around making a female monster, as the titular Bride, for the existing male monster. You're stretching really hard to make mentioning sex in this context as sexist. Sex is plot relevant in this movie, again, called "The Bride", and they didn't say it was uninteresting because it was a female lead character. They mentioned many details that left them uninterested and none of it hinged on sexism. Chill out.

Eh, that combo doesn't really land for me. To each their own.
