I’ll always remember this one time in the 1990s when my family and I were watching some medical documentary on cable TV. There was footage of a trans woman getting top surgery, and they showed the medical details and cutting of her uncovered chest with no problem, but the instant the breast implant was slipped beneath the patient’s skin they blurred out the nipple because it became unsuitable for unedited broadcast at that moment.
i think about that moment a lot.

Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•A billionaire rises to the occasionEnglish51·4 months agoA friend of mine asked me recently, was I gonna go see the new Batman movie with him. I don’t respect the concept of Batman because of what I understand about politics now.
I’mma lay it out for you. Rich dude owns a corporation, has state of the art equipment, and he uses this to beat up on street-level crime. He doesn’t mess with the industrialists, or the super capitalists, the Murdochs, or the Trumps. He really just fucks with the person that’s just on the corner.
Batman is a conservative’s wet dream. Fuck Batman.

Native speakers of modern versions of English don’t initially have a great grasp of the English used in Shakespeare’s texts either. It takes a little extra focusing and effort to get a grip on for even the smartest Shakespeare newbies.
