No, it probably wouldn't have happened in the first place, because the driver of a sensibly-sized car can see things that are less than fifty fucking feet ahead of the dash.
Monstrous behemoths like this should be prohibitively expensive to own for personal use and/or be restricted to industrial/ag use only. Fuck your camping or hauling one chair or whatever the fuck you do twice a year. You can rent for something that seldom.
I'm with you here. I'm beyond tired of this immediate branding of people as wholely disregardable because they have some unsavoury opinions. People can simultaneously hold good and bad opinions. You're not a bad person for agreeing with an idea held by someone you mostly disagree with.
Tom Cruise is a culty weirdo, but he's also a phenomenal actor, so we like his movies. In all likelihood, Hitler enjoyed sandwiches, but that doesn't mean sandwiches are bad.
Follow ideas for their own sake. The idea that Hollywood pumps out a lot of garbage is correct and agreeable no matter who says it.
Save the Cat! formula
Huh. I've never heard of this before. I played through The Matrix in my head while reading a Save The Cat guide and it's strikingly accurate.
Maybe we just need to let Hollywood do the AI thing for a while so people can see how creatively bankrupt the execs are.
I don't think this will end like you think it will. Last time we had a writer's strike, we got ~~reality~~ "reality" TV, a cursed genre that continues to grow more popular and more vapid than ever.
They can both be problems simultaneously, and it's disingenuous to argue that there aren't militant feminists pushing to keep all of the advantages from earlier eras.
I literally pointed out several factors that are objectively institutionally unequal. Pithy quotes won't change that.
Gender balance in government and business is not a proxy for equality.
Woman are not institutionally prevented from campaigning for office. If they're not voted in, that's just democracy.
Women are not institutionally prevented from climbing the corporate ladder. They largely prefer to have a more comfortable work/life balance.
But they are accepted into college 2:1 compared to men.
They do receive scholarships, educational, and career opportunities just for being women.
They do receive an egregiously unfair advantage in family and divorce courts.
Those are institutional.
A story all too common. Someone I know mine got divorced a number of years ago. He's a fun, charming, kind, decent looking fellow in good shape for his age, and I can't imagine he did anything to deserve what happened. I don't know all the details of their divorce, but I know all but one of his children was poisoned against him by his (now ex) wife, and it's only because the one happened to be away long term at the time.
His ex has several advanced degrees and is more than capable of earning six figures. And yet, he was still ordered to pay her spousal support and a sizable chunk of his pension. The divorce and family court system is absolutely fucked for men and it's a small wonder so many of them contemplate drastic measures when their lives are ripped away from them.
Feminism gave women all of the same rights and privileges as men and then conveniently "forgot" to balance out all of the exclusive rights women get just for being women.
This works until all the OEM's jump on the malicious malfunction gravy train.
Oh, but I guess totally okay to blackmail men because they're disposable
And here I thought pansexual meant you really like cookware.
That fleeing the scene of a collision is an offence in and of itself. Fault doesn't play into it.
