I've seen this clip many times, but never really appreciated the power of "what was her problem?" Just casually assuming that lesbians come in a wide variety of shapes and being inclusive. As a transbian who is probably still closer to Homer shaped than to my ideal, that's huge!

The entire 3-minute city ambiance scene from Ghost in the Shell (1995) is already one of the best moments in all of cinema imo, but I NEED to talk about my absolute favorite part from it:

That brief moment when Major Kusanagi and a stranger with her exact same body model catch a glance at one another. How quickly the initial curiosity of seeing the doppelgänger turns into a feeling of unease as the boat carries her away.

She will never meet this stranger. She'll never know anything about her other than the simple reminder that every piece of her cybernetic body is not unique to her. There is no part of her other than her brain and all its memories that she has any true ownership of, and even that isn't immune to being hacked and potentially erased by outside forces. Despite being a part of a bustling city, all she can do is reflect on how utterly isolated she feels as a living being.

How can she possibly define her humanity when she herself is confined in the form of what is essentially a highly modified weapon? How can she relate to others when she has more in common with the mannequins on display in a shopping mall than with the any of the people walking the streets?

All of this inner turmoil at one’s own existence conveyed without a SINGLE word of dialogue spoken. Now that's the power of cinema if I've ever seen it!

Hello, everyone!

I was doing some research and it seems to be the case that a "World Physical Media" day does not exist (yet). Now, this may be silly of me, but I want to change that! So, I am establishing a grassroots movement and you are all invited to join.

I would love for there to be a day every year where we celebrate all things tangible, with the backbone of it being media preservation and fan participation.

I have decided that the date will be December 11th. December 11th 1978 was the day that the LaserDisc (then known as DiscoVision) debuted. Though a somewhat niche format, LaserDisc represents the philosophy of World Physical Media Day: preservation of uncut/imported/obscure media, the power of fan culture and the beauty of physical media. The day will be about all physical media, though, not just LaserDiscs!

If you care about media preservation, enjoy posting shelfies, are tired of disingenuous AI slop content or just simply enjoy actually owning and holding something you love, please consider joining the movement!

Ways to support World Physical Media Day:

Purchase physical media (especially from a local, bricks and mortar store if possible!)

Share your collections, fave editions and "shelfies" with the hashtag #WorldPhysicalMediaday

Borrow physical media from a library or put a request in

Watch a movie/show on physical media (e.g: DVD, blu-ray, LaserDisc, VHS, Betamax, etc)

Listen to an album on physical media (e.g: vinyl, CD, cassette, minidisc) from beginning to end

Visit a library, bookstore, game store or video store, spread the word about World Physical Media Day if you're so inclined!

Preserve and back up media you own: learn how to catalogue collections, protect your media and investigate ways on how you can create backups (or find someone in your community who can)

Share stories behind your fave physical media

Donate unwanted physical media to libraries, charities and other organisations that may be looking for it

Learn about a physical media technology you don't know much about

Host a meetup: watch a DVD with friends, listen to a vinyl record with a family member, etc!

These are just some suggestions, you are more than welcome to celebrate the day however feels right and manageable to you. ‪‪❤︎‬

I know this is obviously very early but I feel like it doesn't hurt to put it out there now and promote the endeavour. I also wanted to share now so that if anyone has any ideas or contributions they'd like to make, there is ample time.

P.S: my handwriting is sloppy, yes, but it is my own! I like writing on pen and paper and I felt like it was in the spirit of what I want World Physical Media Day to be about: authenticity, enjoyment and the preservation of the tangible ꨄ︎

Memo pad was bought here!

Just a little update, we now have a website! It's barebones (and I may well end up tweaking it some more) but it's functional and I'm really pleased with it: https://worldphysicalmediaday.org/ ♥︎ I also want to say a huge thank you to everybody who has supported the project so far, I'm really heartened by people's enthusiasm! I am absolutely thrilled to see people from all kinds of different fandoms spreading the word! I'm still working on some social media stuff and workshopping some ideas. December 11th is going to be a really fun day!

wanting to vent a bit/being worried about privacy will have you posting like i'm dealing with issues and problems. situations have happened to me. and there are emotions i'm experiencing about this. or not. gotta keep 'em on their toes.

I went to this Northwest Passage museum once where they had the white explorers' journals on one side of the exhibit and the native people's accounts on the other side of the exhibit and the explorer journals were like "our canoe had almost sunk when we encountered some kindly Indians" and the native histories were like "we watched a bunch of strangers come down the river in the shittiest canoe you'd ever seen. Also, they had no rain gear"

Ya'll remember how online games made specifically for children were programmed in a way that made it practically impossible to share your personal info?

When age, gender, location was censured like profanity in the name of protecting kids?

But suddenly the Only Way to keep children safe online is to make sure that they have 0 privacy?

Yeah ok. Sure. For the children.

A long time ago, in the Age of Physical, software would be stored on beautiful mirrored discs, and inside each disc a tiny wizard lived who would install the software for you.

I am once again begging people to realize that AI checker doesn’t work. it’s never worked. it’s notoriously known to have flagged human-made works as AI and AI-generated works as human-made. and by feeding it people’s works, you are feeding more works to AI, because apparently the machine itself is AI.

the only thing AI checker does is harm genuine artists and people in general too.
