I never watched the expanse with that angle in mind, but after you said it I have to agree. Just says something about how natural it was done when it just doesn't stand out from the rest of the story at all.

This sums Dico up perfectly for me. I consider myself "woke", I share the values they are advocating in Disco very much. But it's just. So. Shoved. Into. It.

It's not subtle, it's not something coming naturally to the story in most cases. It's just badly writen into a already badly written overall show.

And that, to be honest, is a shame.

This here is also a good video to find out why one would call her that.

No, you can see him behind her in the background in the original. I think this is made without AI, AFAIK this was a thing way before AI.

I was a single, almost 40 years old and happy but somewhat lonely dude 2 years ago.

Now I have a wonderful wife and my twin boy and girl are the sweetest little bunches of joy I can imagine. Additional, my mum sold her house and now we have enoth money to take a year of work and care for the kids together.

I'm tiered and, i am exhausted, but feel so endlessy blessed and happy every time I look at my wife or my children.

This felt a bit like it feels for a german to read durch.

Yep, spot on. When you read trough their new media and their forums, this is ant it comes down to.

Beeing honest about mistakes you make is way better than trying to deflect or lie about them. This is true in professional and in social settings.

Own up to your mistakes, try to correct them and be open about you fucking up. Most people will respect that more than you trying to be Mr or Ms Perfect.
