#askingforit — Public Fediverse posts

As we watch a lot of funding for #research being cut, affecting vital projects and driving many talents away, I can't help seeing #academic #conferences as inappropriately decadent. Random example: this conference has an entire subpage about #sustainability: https://confer.co.nz/isc2026/ Does it mean #hybrid, you might ask? No. You fly to New Zealand, and pay an extra 400 - 6500 NZD if you want to attend a field trip: nearly a year's worth of a PhD student bursary in Poland. Who has this money in #sedimentology? Mostly researchers in the #fossilfuels industry.
Am I interested in the scientific content of the conference? Yes.
Am I ashamed by how sustainably and inclusively it is delivered? Also yes. I wish we scientists weren't so tone deaf sometimes.

When the unthinkable happens to a popular girl at school, everything changes overnight.

Yeah this guy definitely looks like someone with a lot of experience telling people to just lie there and take it, or the violence he inflicts on them is their own fault. #askingforit

Like #PromisingYoungWoman, #AskingForIt, 2021, #Hulu, starts with a strong and unique premise that engages until the final act where, for me, they both fall apart, for similar and different reasons.

However, I really enjoyed Joey's final moment at the end, and the end credit bits were fun.

It's disappointing to me that these #movies have brutal endings for key characters (just like #ThelmaAndLouise) instead of triumphant and cathartic escapes from consequences, as men get in #film, and life.

I’m absolutely thrilled to share our new #trailer for Asking For It! 🎞️ #AskingforIt is a gender flipped adaptation of a satirical play about reporting #assault and not being believed by people in positions of authority. I’m happy to share that we enjoyed a world premiere at the iconic and historic TCL Chinese theaters in #Hollywood and have received our 3rd #filmfestival selection. We will be screening at the #2023 Garden State Film Festival this March! See you there! 🎥 #actors #FilmMastodon 🎭
