i keep thinking about this post and laughing
You’re not depressed. You just need $250,000 in your bank account.

very funny that i still think of tumblr as being relaxing because sometimes I’ll come on this site and my eyes will immediately be assaulted by a string of words that even monkeys with typewriters would be sent to hell for and I’ll just have to deal with that
people replying with “curate your own experience. just block those people” are missing the point. I come on here everyday and my bestest and most beloved of mutuals put together posts meant to deal me 12d8 psychic damage and I like it that way
I think "fuck you, I hate your work and I will do it myself and I will do it better" is a really funny and epic sentiment. i started publishing poetry because an ex boyfriend of mine was publishing really ass poetry in a bunch of journals and I was like "Jesus christ, this is garbage, I could do that, and I could do it better." now I have a page in the Academy of American Poets and I've published a full length collection and his website says "former poet." You should win by succeeding way harder than they do. Spite is a legitimate energy source.
My husband is a professional stand-up comedian because we once went to a gig and saw an act so toweringly Earth-shakingly bad that the mystique immediately fell from the entire artform and he went "Well I can definitely do it better than that."

My biggest kink of all is feeling like you actually want me.
It's not, like, the biggest problem with increasingly narrow Hollywood beauty standards, but a problem is that it's fucking with our ability to use doppelgangers as a dramatic conceit. The world gets a little smaller any time I see two characters played by nearly identical actors and genuinely cannot tell whether it's supposed to be metatextually significant, or whether the casting director just has a boner for brown-haired, square-jawed white men named Chris.
Am I face-blind? Or is the casting just boring?
Mostly it's boring. That's what they're talking about, everyone looking the same now. Tho if you're a little face-blind it probs feels worse with everyone looking the same ...
I've been telling my spouse this for a while. I legit can't be bothered to keep track of which movie had Conventionally-Attractive-Brunette #17 vs Conventionally-Attractive-Brunette #24. But when you get into something with a large number of characters and the director doesn't take pains to make it easy to tell characters apart, a show or movie can be utterly impossible to follow: it rapidly becomes "Okay, so one of the skinny guys in a suit just handed off the briefcase to one of the muscular guys in jeans and a t-shirt. Is this a completely normal interaction between people on the same side, or is this a betrayal? Oh, look, they're getting in a black SUV. I hope at some point I will be given some idea of what's going on.
Until about I want to say ten or fifteen years ago, if actors looked similar, one of them would dye their hair or wear weirder clothes than the other if they were in a movie together...but they don't do that now. Everyone looks the same in and out of movies more and more, so they all just look the same no matter what. It's a bummer.
This is why I think IMDb needs a section at the bottom of every bio that lists people who look similar or have similar names or play similar roles -- especially if they fit in more than one category.
I sincerely believe that is one of the reasons the original Star Wars trilogy has such enduring appeal especially among the nerdier sorts: it's easy to watch. All the main characters are visually distinct (and introduced!), everyone uses good diction, all the sets are well-lit and the important action happens in the field of focus, there are clear recurring leitmotifs, and while Lucas often had nonsensical worldbuilding you could reliably draw on the character archetypes.
Today, a lot of directors make their movies into a slog for the audience: multiple characters have similar appearances, the sets are poorly lit, the visual layout is confusing, and the audio is unintelligible. If I can't tell who is on screen, what they are doing, or what they are saying, why would I watch the movie at all?
Omg this. I hardly watch movies anymore bc Hollywood is so in love with whisper-talking and darkness and every mainstream movie seems to be that same cold blue-grey color.
The thing is, there has been a LOT of pushback about how unwatchable movies are, and the response has been "LOL but it's great in my private theater with a top-of-the-line sound system and also I know each of these actors personally and can easily tell them all apart you just suck".
There's a general ableist contempt for the audience among the decision-makers in the industry, and that's the core of the issue. It's not that they can't fix the issues, it's not about cost. It's that they don't care.
