Disney employing a manager that comes into work to cry all day would probably explain their current state.

Or maybe "presenting" is now the most PC term to refer to someone's gender.It's actually a great example of how this stuff renders language into gibberish. I find it similar to when trans people claim they must be the other sex because they just "feel like a woman/man" as if this is a reasonable statement to make rather than absolute nonsense. its weirder than this, because this is a retcon to why the woman on the right isn't going to explode because they're full of time lord energy but only human, and it turns out because they had a kid whos split the energy between their kid and them together because time lords arent gendered, which is basically saying tough shit what you present as, you were born a man which isn't quite the pro-trans message it might appear. There's also a pronouns joke where the doctor says his pronouns are the definite article, as in THE doctor. Doctor Whos last season wasn't shit because it was in your face with its SJWness, it was shit because it was shit. Same deal with the people who tried to push the narrative the only reason people didn't like Ghostbusters '16 because they hate women, or Star Trek Discovery because it had a black lead. They were all shit because they were shit. Newest Doctor Who was good, clumsy 'power of trans' retcon to write a popular returning character out of a death sentence regardless.

I recently took a look at their Cyberpunk thread and the big staff post and this bulletpoint is such an insane reach among the already pathetic reaches: Quote:Compounding the issue is the fact that the character creator lets you pick your genitalia. This allows for transphobes to create avatars that can be used to once again make a mocker of transgender people. To make matters worse, CDPR have openly made some terrible, transphobic "jokes" on their own Twitter account about this feature.The horrific twitter account joke?
