People will usually change the pitch and the speed of "This text is being read aloud" in an attempt to humor themselves before the fucking test. If you looked this up, you're probably either starting R.I.S.E soon and want to entertain yourself before, or you just ended it and don't know what the hell to do right now.

Left-reading

Interpretations of media that makes excuses for sexist/anti-lgbtq/racist themes by giving undue credit and nuance to authorial intent; especially as a way to give a pass to offensive writing in movies/books/etc you might enjoy.

"No, that's just a left-reading of her role. She still has to wait around for Link to save her very frequently."

or

"The left-readings of Rey's role in Star Wars Episode 8 are too forgiving, considering she spends so much of the film trying to 'fix' men. "
