I was watching dragon ball z all day and wasn't paying attention at all. Goku is fighting Cell it's pretty cool
It's probably going to be a bad time for trans people. I expect a lot more laws preventing trans people from playing sports in high school. I'm worried about migrants, homeless, Gaza but I already was. There will probably be more abortion restrictions in more states. Conservatives might get like a 7 or 8 seat majority on the supreme court.
Now that the democrats have been cast into the desert again, liberals might start pretending to care about our issues again. But they did not pretend. They made it clear that we would not have a seat at the table with Kamala and now we still won't have a seat at the table and neither will they.
I didn't know how jokerfied I've gotten because while I'm still disappointed that Trump is going to be president again, it's also hilarious that she did even worse than Hillary. The democrats are an absolutely terrible party. I'm sad Trump won and glad Kamala lost. She was talking about protecting black people's crypto and campaigning with the Cheneys and would not take a stance for or against anything, even against genocide.
Jeb Bush/Liz Cheney 2028 (D)6-3 SCOTUS ruling gets rid of the 22nd amendment
Trump wins a third term
Until tonight, based on what happened in the 2022 elections I thought the GOP was way overplaying their hand on the anti-trans stuff. I thought most Americans are way more ambivalent than the GOP thinks they are. I still think that’s basically true, but the Democrats now can look at these results and completely back off from supporting trans rights (I mean, even less than their pathetic efforts before).
Kamala wasn't gonna do anything about v-coding or employment discrimination anyway. Healthcare is necessary but more affluent trans people should still be able to get it illegally.
These laws were already passing and the supreme Court was already Republican.
It was two fascist parties, one that's proud about it and the other that obfuscates it slightly
Incels will still have no girlfriend and will copy the incel movement in south korea.
No fair, I was hoping a Huey Long- style demagogue would promise to redistribute sex before it got to that. The only way this madness can be funny is when it's done by a Southern guy who sounds like an auctioneer. I still say this'll be the Republican platform in 2028.
Is he planning anything against the transgenders any time soon id like to know cuz that's me
I'm not convinced Trump thinks about us any further than just getting his piglets to squeal at a rally. He'll be more cruel if he gets around to it, but immigrants are who he's liable to actually commit a genocide against.
Also a nervous transgender. Kamala wasnt going to do anything to help trans people, but she wasnt going to single us out either.
I’m cis but bi here.
Really cool and good that every four years I get to be reminded that I am little more than prey to the majority of the country.
Is he capable of having a plan of anything anymore?
Tbh at this point I'm not to worried about it, at least in terms of legal stuff. Getting gender affirming care is probably going to become a bitch, and its not like hes going to oppose any anti-lgbt laws stateside (not like Kamala would either, lets be real), but I think Trump only cares about being against transgender people as far as getting elected. Once he's in office he's probably going to have other things to focus on.
I'm a little more concerned about Vance and the alt-right groups that'll be emboldened by this though. Kinda hard to tell what'll happen with them at this point, and I do feel worried about an influx of hate crimes being possible.
Oh, it's really bad. Goku gives Cell a fucking Senzu bean then makes Gohan fight him! Gohan doesn't even like lighting, Goku!
Rare Goku L
Though tbf, he did that to get the next generation ready to take over... until Super threw that away.
BAH GAWD IT'S SUPER HERO WITH THE STEEL CHAIR! Gohan and Piccolo as main characters?? Getting to do stuff????
Ya, I kept watching after Cell, but stopped after Buu, so I haven't started Super. It just never got to the same high. There was a clear arc/theme of "passing the care of the world onto the next generation", something they were clearly aiming for since the beginning of Z when Gohan was a baby being trained by Piccolo, and then they threw it away to make him a nerd and Goku the savior again. Cell Saga will always be the proper end of the series for me, I think, unless someone I really trust tells me Super is that good.
Super undid so much of Goku's character progression and regressed him so bad (Six made a great video on it); made him like an actual child. I think Toriyama genuinely just forgot about alot of Z's events — he did tend to do that like with Goten and Trunks' tails. This is a 40 y/o series after all.
Disagree on the Gohan part though; he wouldn't be an interesting main character since he's usually the one being moved by the plot instead of moving the plot himself. And it makes sense for him to hate fighting with him repeatedly being bullied and beaten as a child in Z — I like that not wanting to be a fighter makes him unique.
I think Pan or Bra could've been good mcs for a possible sequel (not how GT did it though; Pan just ended up serving as a damsel in distress for Goku to save there) since they're empty slates, with Gohan acting as a mentor instead.
The way I saw it, it was Gohan gaining the confidence to go off and live his life on his terms. He finally escaped his father's shadow and did something actively, finally harnessing the power we were told he had but only ever saw him unleash accidentally it when forced by being pushed over the edge. After that, I figure he could start moving the plot instead of being moved. Make him a changed man.
Or, you could just make it a happier ever after. You can't really make a plot after "happily ever after", of course, but then that's kind of why I'm okay with the series ending after that arc. I'm okay with just imagining the characters just living their life after that point. It's why I never watched past Toy Story 3 lol. I even heard 4 was really good, but never felt like anything was missing from the character's stories, and just preferred think of them living a cool, chill life I suppose. Maybe it's a weird quirk I have where I don't need more content even of a thing I super loved if I think they stuck the landing well enough, idk lol.
Interesting to hear about Super, though. Probably going to watch that video you linked instead of watching the show if what you said is true.
I'm really nervous about losing my already barely accessible healthcare since my medication is extremely expensive
very likely that gender affirming care gets banned from being covered by Medicare and Medicaid, to pick one thing at random
doubtful anything that impacts you directly beyond anything kamala would have done.. they're the face of the machine and little more
i'm pulling all of my money out of the US stock market and putting it in the china market index.
Biden launches a nuclear missile in America after election night, just like how the loss of love towards Vivec resulted in the destruction of Morrowind.
