#retcon — Public Fediverse posts

What if instead of a generic snake -- #Serpens became -- Nüwa??

Nüwa is a woman-headed snake goddess in #Chinese #mythology who created humans from clay.

She was one of Jordan's ret-cons(tellations) for the serpens constellation this week!

It kinda feels like the epstein class is trying to #retcon how bad racists have been treated in the past.

Did Buddha spend 45 years tirelessly walking and teaching, or was that a 'retcon' story invented by the later prose authors of the suttas, to justify the long canon they needed to write in order to compete with Hinduism?

George Orwell would be proud. #retcon

He doesn't belong to you, writer-man. He belongs to US.

It's like we are all collectively forgetting what an unholy mess and threat to #democracy and #safety #Twitter was before #Musk took over. It's a weird #retcon of #history.

#Dumb, #Dumber, and #Dumberest - the third installment in the series reunites the original cast of the first two, with Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels joined by a cousin, who for some reason is played by a digital recreation of Rob Schneider. Plot is unknown, but likely doesn't matter.

Porky's: The Next Generation - a reboot to try to re-establish the franchise on the basis that #sophomoric #comedy has fallen into a rut. Plot has been modernized; since Hollywood no longer plays high school characters as virgins, three friends try to get their buddy to go viral on #TikTok. Stars Austin Butler, Tom Holland, Levi Miller, and Conor Sherry, and is for some reason directed by a digital recreation of Bob Clark.

Promising Young Woman 2 - as the original Promising Young Woman (2020) was unexpectedly profitable, you knew a sequel was coming. Some #retconning was required to re-establish the character of Cassandra, who memorably died in the original film. Carey Mulligan returns for a large paycheque, with an otherwise all-new cast. Script by a digital recreation of Emerald Fennell's cat.

And who said creativity in Hollywood was dead?

3/3

@davidbcohen @Moltz interning at the local Renault factory was a proud Picard family tradition going back centuries. #retcon

@fernsehmuell @sveni Du hattest recht damit, @kerr, dass wir die Büchse der #Retcon-Ultras geöffnet haben! 😅

Stop me if you've heard this one…

"Once upon a time, there was `<div id="root"></div>` + `<script>` tag. But it had some problems! So some very smart people got together and decided to do something about it! And tada! Server-side rendering was born. 😎"

I just retooted a perfectly logical response to a time travel hypothetical. I’m wondering, do more people imagine fun time travel tourism or making the world better?

I would go back to 2000 to get out the vote for Gore in Florida. Then I would dedicate my life to pro democracy reforms in the US, fighting to prevent Trumpism and the growth of Fox-Republican fascism.
Or
Scenario 2: 1980. Expose Ronald Reagan’s campaign crimes. That could change A LOT for the better!

Apropos of nothing, if I'm doing my 30s and 40s over again, it's definitely more orgies.

Lots more.

"That's not true!", "That's a lie!", "That's not what that said before!", "This isn't right", That's definitely a retcon"....

Have you ever pulled up a Wikipedia page, only to stare in stark disbelief, that what you're seeing isn't actually the truth, or knowing that the page has been altered to reflect a completely different narrative than was was factually correct in an earlier incarnation of the page?

You may have just been victimized by a phenomenon known as #retcon, and one of the founders of #Wikipedia has been working on a set of solutions to rectify such #disinformation.
