For people who don’t read the article, what happened was that it was found that girls from 70 Australian schools were targeted by a porn site, with guys requesting pictures of specific girls and stuff.
The girl’s school, instead of lecturing the boys about treating their female peers like objects and posting pornography of girls as young as 12, decided to lecture the girls about makeup and and skirt length.
I’m so proud of this girl for standing up for herself and her peers!
Holy fuck a porn site was literally trying to spread child pornography and the school lectured the GIRLS?????
They really went and fixed every issue with the original in one go huh
My understanding is that it’s not even a reboot.
It’s just a continuation of the franchise without the “Jack Sparrow” character. It’s a whole world of piracy, magic, and adventures, so why limit it to revolving around the adventures of one dude and his friends?
From what I’m hearing, it’s going to focus on the character of Redd from the ride.
Remember the one part in the ride where the pirates are auctioning off the women? And a bunch of the pirates are chanting “We wants the redhead!” and sure enough, there’s a gorgeous redhead getting auctioned off?
Well, luckily, Disney recently changed the scene. There are now no women getting auctioned off, and the redhead, since renamed Redd, is a pirate captain in her own right.
The reworked character has become so popular that she’s actually a walk around character that you can meet in the park.
I really hope the rumors are true because we deserve a movie or twelve about female pirates
psych majors should be required to kick it with a mentally ill person for at least 80 hours just to be reminded that we are human and not experiments
As both a psych major and a mentally ill person I cannot begin to tell you how many people I have met in my classes who make me concerned for the safety and health of mentally ill people everywhere, especially the young children who struggle.
My first psychology class was fucking wild. Put of around 35 of us only three (one being a close friend of mine) of us had any sort of mental illness. Intro Psych is mainly about brain development with only a small section at the end being about mental illness but Oh Fucking Boy did everyone’s weird ass stereotypes and fetishes jump out in the last chapter.
We were talking about schizophrenia and the one other girl with mental illness was a schizophrenic (it wasn’t known until this exact moment). We were talking about symptoms when someone just asked outloud, “Aren’t schizos like super likely to murder people though?”
I thought, okay, one guy still stuck in the fucking 80’s, whatever.
But Then A Bunch Of People Start Agreeing
And soon we were 20minutes into class and everyone had shared a case of a schizophrenic murdering, abusing, etc etc and They Saw Nothing Wrong With Thinking These Stereotypes Were A Standard
The prof finally stopped them and asked if anyone wanted to make one last statement and this poor girl just raises her hands and “I just thought you all should know that I’m schizophrenic and have never thought about murdering someone, nor have I ever hurt anyone apart from myself.”
And… no one apologized. They literally felt no guilt at all for bashing this girl.
The same exact thing happened when we talked about depression, anxiety, and ptsd.
“Ptsd is what soldiers get after war right?”
“Yeah sometimes, but anyone can suffer from it after a traumatic event”
“How would you know, are you the professor now?”
“No, but I have ptsd from a car crash that nearly killed me so…”
Like god damn I really fucking hate neurotypicals trying to satisfy some weird curiosity they have for “crazy” people or whatever it is like please stay like 3000ft away from anyone with a mental illness and never fucking talk to them dear god
good luck to everyone with mental illness doing a psych degree. speaking from experience, you’re going to need a lot of patience and self-restraint.
