Obviously continue to watch something you dislike, despite there being many other things you can do with your life.

What part of any of this was boys will be boys?

What part of any of this was hockey related?

Are those serious questions?

But [the case] also revealed the existence of a secret Hockey Canada fund, which the organization eventually admitted it had specifically created to pay settlements in sexual assault cases against players – apparently lifting the lid off a long-simmering culture of abuse and cover-ups extending far beyond the case at hand.

Yeah, I'm inclined to agree. I'm not against puppets, but a TAS-style adventure would have been fun.

I didn't expect the apparent flashback framing device - Russ and Takei are a nice surprise.

Whenever this happens, it looks absolutely fine on some Mastodon instances (I just checked, and this post looks fine on my own), and "wrong" on others (like yours).

That suggests to me that the issue may lie with the Mastodon server, but I genuinely don't know, and have no idea how to replicate the issue.

That is a bit of weirdness that happens sometimes when Lemmy posts federate to Mastodon. It sometimes grabs the thumbnail and headline from a completely different post.

I have no idea why, but it's incredibly annoying.

Honestly, my biggest fear is that Paramount+ may not have a lot of the demographic they're trying to capture.

How many young adults subscribe to that thing?
