Who wants to cook black market hormones in an RV out in the New Mexican desert?

That is such a good premise for a remake. Dont get me wrong, enough with the remakes already but dam, it was (apperantly) a good show and that adds plenty of room for changes while just doing it again.

Yeah Mrx. White! YEAH SCIENCE!

Honestly that could actually be interesting. Would probably be able to discuss some nuances and make the mainstream a bit more comfortable with some currently uncomfortable conversations. People can remember complicated things if they’re invested in the narrative.

I’m a cis-het potato. If any of this sounds insensitive, I can fix it:

Guy who doesn’t meet the stereotype of a “drug guy” has to cook up drugs to make ends meet. makes him start making for , which turns out to also be used by for . At first he sees them as nothing more than the users he was profiting from in an hour of desperation, people who twist their sad lives around acquiring and consuming a substance, but over time as he gets further down this path he begins to understand them in a way that he (and most people) has never had to. “Upstanding-man-who-is-a-secret-chemical-man ally” can go in so many directions.

With all its many many faults, I remember seeing Dallas Buyers Club as a judgmental kid, and it was successfully able to split “queer identity” from “sexual perversion” for me. I think this understanding was beginning to spread before a tipping point in the past decade. Personally I think people saw a lot of (Western) companies really go all in on rainbow marketing, going directly from “queer identities exist” to “these are being celebrated openly” without the critical middle “this isn’t a sex thing”.

If you think it’s bad in the US or Europe (and it’s not always great, it’s not a competition) let me assure you the heightened negative attention has also made people who were able to be themselves under the radar here in the Middle East face more bullshit. The average person around me has gone from “This person gives me the ick but it has no effect on my life really, just stay away from me and my kids, it’s between them and God” to “This person should be fixed immediately before they shove their perversion down everyone’s throats.” The former is abysmal, but at that point they weren’t really seen as an active, growing threat. Unfortunately it’s not just “this isn’t a sex thing” that’s missing here, historically most people have thought “queer” = “perversion” = “pedophilia”, and this was fading slowly before being supercharged by all this torrent of negative attention.

It's an interesting synopsis. My suggestion would be instead of drugs he starts making testosterone for his local gym bros but his customer base keeps shifting more and more to t guys so he ends up diversifying his inventory with other hormones.

And regarding increasing pressure in the middle east I know it's a highly complex subject and there's more to it but in both cases the American government has weaponized religion to cause a divide.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

I thought about that as I was writing but it would be a little contrived to a general audience, maybe.

I’ve commented about this link before. The gym bro thing is what made me wrap my mind around some things myself.

I am not going to read all that. Just tell me if Jesse Pinkman tops Heisenberg or not.

Wrong, not canon

Marketing departments are always "This is a sex thing". It's like they all have English lit degrees or something.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think you'll find that's a business major problem, English lit is... you know, literally both about critical analysis and about as woke of a degree as you can get?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Is it not a current joke any more that any literary analysis ends up concluding that it is about sex?

Everything is sex except sex which is power?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Wasn’t that sorta a sub plot in Y: the Last Man tv series?

[–] [email protected] 41 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Mmmh, that's some good boomer humor.

The lack of cum stained couches disproves this.
