You can make a movie with where the only white character is a man named Ray Cism whose one line of his 16 seconds of screen time is “I seriously hate women and minorities.” and you’ll find fifty bajillion reader x Ray Cism fanfics and renaissance style drawings of him with a halo of golden light

one of the reasons I love mushishi is that the part of Japan much of it is set in reminds me SOOO much of southern appalachia, particularly the smoky mountains. and mushishi knows that people be falling off cliffs in the dark. that episode is the realest "community that lives on a thickly forested mountain" rep I've ever seen.

[creekfiend]

the summer hikaru died also does this well, by which I mean, it has a guy just going up a mountain in the dark and slipping and dying. and! ☝️ there is still Supernatural Stuff, which I think satisfies the human feeling that a meaningless death is the Site Of An Occurance, like, we have this NEED for a death like that to have some kind of significance, psychologically. and this does that while also not denying the mundanity of death. the supernatural thing did not cause the death. nothing sinister GOT Hikaru. slipping in the dark got Hikaru. the death is not lessened or softened or made less real due to the existence of the supernatural thing. the dead person is still dead. they're gone. you can't get them back.

it just makes real that human feeling of like, something HAPPENED here. it can't just be THIS, can it??? it has to be SOMETHING --

anyway I love media that threads this needle and hikaru does it really well and so does the mushishi ep about the mushi that puppets corpses that die on that one mountain. I'm putting together a list of good media rep of people falling down a hill and dying and it contains two things but it could contain more. with your help

Seriously anyone engaging with age verification bill discourse in terms of whether or not you think age restricting content is good or bad are completely missing the point.

These bills have nothing to do with keeping young people from doing certain things or protecting the children or whatever. Their point is and always has been one thing: If your operating system knows who you are it is impossible to have any real form of privacy on the computer.

Thats it, thats the whole thing. They want to link your every single usage of computers to your real world identity, and like they have been doing for all of time, they are hiding under the guise of protecting the children.

Not the point in the slightest but are cigarette ads not illegal in the USA❔❔❔For some reason that one is blowing my mind

[ayellowbirds]

Only as of 1999. The original, unedited version of this cartoon, by Clay Butler, was published in 1996, and looks like this:

Someone went to a lot of effort to not only remove the cartoonist's credits, but also make the joke weaker. In the original, the graffiti is a lone and comparatively small, unremarkable tag in single-line monochrome. It contrasts with the billboards and signs by being unobtrusive, making it all the more absurd that the pig notices it with such vitriol. The edited version loses the impact by making it stand out in bright color and cover the whole of the wall.

[audliminal]

I would argue that the person who edited was not diminishing the joke but rather challenging the context. Sure, graffiti tags can be small and unobtrusive, but even when they're not; even when it covers lots of space and is brightly colored and extremely obvious. Actually, especially then, graffiti is art.

The advertisements are boring, monochrome, adding nothing to the environment; they serve as distractions with no real value. Simply there to disrupt your brain, to attempt to influence you in the most mundane ways possible, whereas the colorful graffiti is adding to the environment, making it prettier, more visually interesting, more dynamic.

The graffiti being made colorful is the point. The person is looking at the only aesthetically interesting thing in the entire image and saying it's the thing that needs to be destroyed

[digitaldiscipline]

"The person is looking at the only aesthetically interesting thing in the entire image and saying it's the thing that needs to be destroyed."

[submerges this take until it stops wiggling]

"the only non-corporate thing in the image"

Some questions for further analysis:

Were/are editorial cartoons frequently produced exclusively in black and white for printing in the newspaper? How might this have influenced the original artist?

Were/are advertisements exclusively in black and white in reality? Cite your sources, especially since many readers were alive and adults when the original comic was published.

[oojamaflip-whatchamacallit]

#ads often are aesthetically interesting and graffiti often isn't#anyone who thinks that the point is 'the graffiti artist made something pretty and the ad designers didn't' is a fucking idiot#trying to turn the point into that absolutely does NOT enhance it it turns it into nonsense

me making ocs when i was 13: okay i want my character to be cool and different but not too different... i dont want anyone to call them a mary sue... or too edgy... or forced diverrsity.... and i have to draw good or else i could end up on a deviantart youtube video like my friend did that one time... this is hard...

me writing characters now: hes a wolf with blue hair and he has a chainsaw that can turn into a bass guitar. his name is road boy because three bikers found him on the road during the apocolypse and raised him to do stunt motorcycle tricks but they have no idea what his real name is hes bi and ace and his best friend is a trans woman and he lives in an abandoned mall

You’ve heard of “i didn’t say it was good, i said i liked it,” get ready for “i said it had some technical problems & didn’t fully deliver on its themes, not that i didn’t like it”

[elucubrare]

#I voiced a criticism of some of its aspects#which in no way implies I did not like it#“and especially does not imply that I would like to hear a defense of it of the form 'shut up and let people have fun'”
