I think it’s a bidet

IT worker in system analysis and design in the public service in Canberra, Australia.

There’s no official policy though many of my co workers believe a lunch time drink is not allowed. I have often enjoyed a couple of glasses of wine or a beer at lunch, have never made a secret of it, and have never been told off or warned by anyone above me

I don’t have a problem with the character, just the way she was written especially in the second film, I didn’t watch the third. And that film was terrible. The plot was bad, all the characters were bad, their adherence to star wars space stuff was bad

I don’t know if the writers were bad at their job or whether they were required to change it

The bit I didn’t say was I meant such a character in a hero’s journey style story

It works in that genre. The main guy in Nobody also was pretty good from the start. The fast and furious flicks also don’t do a great deal of character development

Those all have characters presented as good at whatever the movie is about

If the worst happens there are many instances to choose from, and it seems easy to get your preferred username

I think that’s it. I was taught how to project my voice, how to use an authoritative tone and it has helped me get leadership roles. It’s a skill, and it’s a skill that any leader ought to have, in a film, at least.

Both men and women can do it, but you need to learn and I haven’t seen nearly as many girls trying to learn it as boys

Your comic book examples with one woman on a team of mostly men are probably due to the audience for conic books having been almost exclusively boys. I suspect the one woman was indicative of the market share going to girls

I wonder if umbrella academy’s gender balance was due to the power archetypes being perceived as gendered

Funny thing with books is you can tell whether the intended audience is men or women by the cover art, but the art is (perhaps was) all aimed at women because they don’t find a significant number of men buying books, the man’s wife or mother buys them for them

So books aimed at men have cover art aimed at attracting women buying for a man.

Who complained about the female led movie Alien (93% audience rating on rotten tomatoes)?

I think the issue is that the movies aren’t written well. Rey in the third trilogy never saw a challenge she couldn’t master on the first attempt. A story about a character born perfect and never faltering isn’t fun

Which instance is it on?

1kg of gold would fuck up so many of the world populations people, much like the lottery

I came here in the Reddit migration too, right after the API thing. I like that this place is still small - it has the community feeling that you only saw in Reddit in small, focused subs

Isn’t everyone avoiding X? It’s a ghost town

You could have probably stopped before your last word

We have a clean desk policy at my workplace too, we also don’t take classified documents home

We need to provide a photo of our home work area as part of our application for work from home. It’s needed as part of the employer’s duty of care - managers are supposed to examine the photo and determine its a safe work area

Really all that happens is a photo is attached to the application and never looked at

I doubt American employers have any duty of care towards work from home employees.

I bet the unblurring was about being able to see the documents. AI blur is pretty aggressive at blurring anything that isn’t a face
