  • In the first season of Brooklyn 99, there is this weird plot line where Charles develops a crush on Rosa and she keeps telling him to back off. Likely done at the time to foil Peralta and Santiago's immature, pig tail pulling romantic arc, but anyone whose watched more than a season knows those two characters are totally wrong for each other.

    Its a little funny because it doesn't come off as early writing weirdness. Charles was going through a really rough divorce at the time, and Rosa, while gruff, does deeply care about her friends (and him), and didnt want to slap him down. He later apologizes, and dates a few other women before settling in with a new LTR.

  • I would argue instead that while patriarchy encourages people to overvalue oversexualized beauty in women, and does encourage men to be dipshits towards them, that would cause women to overvalue kindness and gentleness in their non threatening, masculine related fantasies. Maybe I'm overgeneralizing, but I am thinking of Bandit Heeler, or that fucking toothbrush

  • Dane DeHan in Valerean. The part was for an older Han Solo type. Dane was 35, but could still pass for a high schooler. The movie mostly now gets remembered for this miscast, and for its immensely interesting opening sequence, but the whole movie is made of action set pieces made out of sci fi insanity It should be remembered for that, and that Luc Besson is a grooming creepazoid.

    Also, Timothy Chalamet. He was terrible in Dune, but I think he was most miscast as Willy Wonka. Hes always wooden, but Wonka needs to be animated! Cinema was introduced to the character with a fake fall into a back flip! Jeremy Alan White is right there!

  • As far as I have been led to believe they replaced a lot of interfacing with apps and walled gardens. My work, for example, buys a whole office suite from microsoft. I imagine schools buy preloaded machines from Pearson or whatever.
