robin williams' daughter talking about ai slop
i will never be against piracy ever but i also need physical media to remain
the average blockbuster carried about 3x as many films than that that are streaming on Netflix or any other streaming service, physical media along with piracy is more important than ever.
I thought this wasn’t true, because how could it be true? How could one small store have more movies than an online database? So I googled it.
I am surprised and depressed to learn it’s 100% true, according to google. A Blockbuster store was required to have a minimum of 7000 titles, but most averaged about 10,000. Netflix has 4000 movies. (And 1800 tv shows if you want to count those, but even included, it’s still less)
Now I’m even more depressed about the collapse of physical rental stores.
“Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”
— Vincent Van Gogh
“If I am worth anything later, I am worth something now. For wheat is wheat, even if people think it is a grass in the beginning.”

bonus:
this is the gay agenda and i LOVE it
But what if my GF is a Law Enforcer?
You should break up with her then
but BUT what if you’re gay AND a law enforcer?
then you’re a traitor to the community
What about Captain Holt???
ok but legitimately i think the reason why kids aren’t taking internet safety seriously is because the people who are telling us not to put our personal information out seem so out of touch. no one acknowledges the possibility of meeting very real teenaged friends online, they always say that everyone you meet is a 40 year old white man in disguise. because they aren’t acknowledging things we know are true, it becomes a lot easier to dismiss the rest of what they’re saying as well. internet safety lessons absolutely must keep up with the times and acknowledge the internet’s capacity for good if you want kids to take to heart warnings about its capacity for bad.
Some actual safety tips for teenagers:
1. Have proof they're a teenager first. More than just a picture, have a video call with them.
2. If you want to meet up with them, have your parents or a trusted adult come with you. Even if they are a proven teenager, its still good to have supervision in case any issues happen.
3. If you are talking to an adult, and they start being sexual in any way, you run the fuck away. It doesn't matter if they're 40 or 20. An adult inherently has a power dynamic that teenagers do not. And its up to the adult to act responsible about it. There's exceptions of course, if you're 16 and dating an 18 year old, that's not a problem, we're not talking about that.
4. Being in a server with adults or ran by adults is not inherently bad. Talking to adults is not inherently a problem, and will likely happen in any number of Discord servers. It is only an issue when they are acting sexual and show predatory behavior.
5. Look out for grooming behavior. It can be difficult, because at first it seems like innocuous behavior, like complimenting or giving gifts. Especially if you feel lonely and have low self esteem. And groomers actively target people like that.
If they start trying to isolate you, talk sexual with you, state they depend on you for emotional needs, blame you for their own actions, try to be secretive about the relationship- Then you need to talk to people you trust, block the perpetrator, and call the police on them.
6. If this does happen to you, remember this: It is not your fault. Even if you didn't listen to a single thing listed here, it is not your fault. It is the fault of the adults who knew better, and didn't care. It's not your fault.
To my followers: if any of you guys are underaged, please be very VERY careful on here, and don’t fall for any of the tricks the groomer would use on you, just block them and report them.
To teens online:
One of the ways to protect yourself from groomers, is to find adult communities and hang out there. Not "sexytiemz" communities, just places that are overwhelmingly full of adults. (Ravelry, if you have an interest in knitting or crocheting. Mobileread, if you care about ebooks. And so on. Somewhere large and active and not focused on a fandom that goes through bizarre drama every three monts.)
Notice how adults talk to each other. How they talk to friends; how they talk to new strangers who have an interest in their fandoms or hobbies or whatever. How they talk to kids in all-ages spaces. How they joke with each other and with teens. How they compliment each other and are supportive; how they offer criticism intended to be taken in good faith. And how they troll and attack each other, sometimes.
Knowing what normal adult behavior looks like will go a long way toward being able to identify predatory behavior.
Teens need to learn the difference between supportive friendship and grooming, and between someone who's angry (or even a jerk) and someone who's actively abusive.
And remember: The dangerous adults are not the ones saying "I am 45 and still interested in teen superhero fandoms." They're the ones saying "I'm 16 and I have a no-adults-allowed Discord; please join me and we can be friends!"
Predators lie.
Plus, noticing healthy adult behavior is also a good exercise in pruning shitty friends who ARE your age, irl or not. I wish I knew all this as a kid.

reading through the Nope (2022) trivia on imdb and this one got me good
there’s a parallel between nope and get out that i love. at the end of get out, after chris has fatally injured rose and is about to actually get out, a cop car pulls up. it turns out it’s rod, but you’re reminded that, even though rose and her family are dead, the racism they capitalized on is alive and well
similarly, at the end of nope, when jeanjacket finally dies and em gets the picture, the shot widens to show the media rushing forward - ready to make a spectacle of all that has just happened, likely to exploit em and oj’s story the same way their great great great grandfather was exploited. this is overshadowed by the reveal that OJ is alive, just like the cop car was overshadowed by rod’s presence - but these symbols remind the viewer that the social evil which created the monster/the villain is still around.
the cop car and the shot of the news media are intentionally placed after the monster/villain is defeated. the effect is that the real world systematic violence viewers have been desensitized to is made newly terrifying by jordan peele’s narrative. and that’s how you make a “spectacle” out of violence/pain that is not itself exploitative
Can't stop thinking about the way that Jupe KNEW something was wrong. He was already nervous and hesitant the second Jean Jacket started moving ahead of schedule. He saw JJ acting irregularly and was scared. Because he's been through this before. He knows that something is off. But his wife - who has never dealt with something like this, who (ostensibly) has never worked with animals, much less wild ones - instantly invalidates his concerns by saying JJ is just "putting on a show". She doesn't know any better. She always pulls Jupe back when he gets stuck in his trauma. She just pulls him back one more time, like usual.
I cannot stop thinking about how scared Jupe sounds when he says "Here we go." right before unveiling Lucky and moving on with the show. He's a professional, a performer, and he can't even hide how scared he is. He knew that things were going sideways but he went along with it anyway because just going along with it is what has gotten him this far. The show must go on. Never stop performing. You've done this a hundred times, now. Don’t break character. Not while everyone is watching.
