shoutout to all the real graffiti fans scouring the prestigious auction houses in tears because they’re the only places on earth where graffiti exists

[livelaughratgirl]

These people need to be shot how do you secure to right to something on a fucking brick wall

[aquarianconstellations]

Caught this while staying in Amsterdam a month ago. Photos taken one day apart - the graffiti got painted over, but the Banksy was painstakingly maintained. The joke writes itself.

[hunter-rodrigez]

Banksy is the gentrification and commodification of graffiti.

It’s the neoliberal bastardization of this counterculture, using toothless “I am 13 and this is deep” ass art that says nothing and criticizes nobody in particular.

we gotta get back to torrent distribution, i just watched someone eat eight grand in bandwidth charges because they ran a direct-download piracy site with local file hosting through cloudflare. torrents were invented literally for this exact reason

[estro-boi]

torrents work like this

i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3

unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it

i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map

i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs

this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.

crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.

please learn to torrent

Shout out to the autistic who’s abilities have regressed as they’ve gotten older.

“You didn’t used to be like this when you were a kid.” I know please don’t remind me

[theconcealedweapon]

"This never bothered you when you were a kid."

Yes it did. I just let it slide because I was taught that I'm "too sensitive" anytime something bothered me. But now I'm finally standing up for myself.

"You never struggled with this when you were a kid."

Yes I did. I just burned myself out in order to do it so I wouldn't be punished. But now I'm accepting myself enough to not force myself to do what I was never meant to do.

[countessravengrey]

"You didn't have these problems when you were younger."

Yes, I did. I just spent my child/teen years with structured institutions like school while not having to worry about whether I had a roof over my head or food to eat and spent my early adult years using up every bit of adrenaline I will ever have to ignore the fact that I've been chronically burnt out my whole life.

[ashkaztra]

"But you did fine for years, why would it be bad now?"

Because I spent the first 37 years of my life burning the candle at both ends to function even remotely and I scraped that barrel empty. Then I crashed and burned and now I'm likely never recovering fully.

[tpwrtrmnky]

Analyzing the politics of a work that's meant to be apolitical is actually a really interesting exercise because it asks you to critically examine what the creator considers to be "political" in the first place. Which ideas are just How Things Are, and which ones are Political, and how is that influenced by the creator's beliefs?

[takashi0]

Usually this just ends up with you looking like a moron btw

[tpwrtrmnky]

Angrily lashing out at the suggestion that it's possible to do basic media analysis was foundational to the ragebait ecosystem of the 2010s, from which we got basically the entire culture of modern far right politics, btw.

[iteh3xael]

I genuinely believe myself and others are being so sincere and literal when we say TOUCH GRASS

[tpwrtrmnky]

I went outside and got an education, that's where I learned that you can obtain knowledge and insight through analytical methods, then noticed that some people who sit on the internet yelling at strangers get really mad about that constantly.

[irishironclad]

So actually if you really wanted to use your analysis skills you'd realize that what people are annoyed about is the implication that there's never a story or creative work they can create that can escape people like you attempting to assign political meaning to it when they just don't want that. That in fact people's presumptions about life are not, in fact, political (at best they are cultural, which is not an inherently facet of politics). And that by you people arrogantly pushing this idea you are intruding on the fact that a lot of people use fiction as escapism from politics and insisting that "urm no actually your favourite cartoon actually has politics cause no human being is 100% unbiased" is in fact, supremely fucking annoying

[tpwrtrmnky]

"Stop having fun wrong, it ruins my fun when you have fun wrong, it's not enough for me to just scroll past the analysis I don't like, if anyone anywhere is saying that the cartoon exists in a political context that's undermining my enjoyment of it!"

That's you. That's what you sound like.

[irishironclad]

If your "fun" involves deliberately and knowingly doing something that annoys and irritates people then yes you are having fun wrong, its also not just about you doing analysis; if it was just that you can do that in your head, but you don't, you insist upon other people and upon their work when its clearly not welcome or appreciated. Keep your thoughts to yourself

[tpwrtrmnky]

I am talking about posting on my own blog and engaging with posts by others who are doing the same thing, and you are responding to my post. Do you understand the irony of what you just said?

[irishironclad]

No. You are not. That's not what you insisted on this post and that's not what the argument is about. The argument at hand is you insisting that all works are inherently political by default, and that you insisting that is annoying and factually wrong. You either don't understand what you yourself wrote or are knowingly being obtuse and shifting the focus to make it seem like you were minding your own business and are randomly being attacked. If you want to insert politics into everything that is your prerogative, but don't act like people are overreacting or being unreasonable annoyed with you when you enter their spaces and insist upon your annoying ass opinions.

[tpwrtrmnky]

"Enter their spaces" is an interesting choice of words, here. Who decides ownership over these "spaces", exactly? Am I "entering a space" if I watch a movie, and then post "this had some interesting but clearly unintended political messaging" on my own blog?

You continue to act like I'm attacking someone, when in fact, you're repeatedly responding to a post I made half a year ago about a thing I think is interesting to do. In terms of expressing opinions on social media, posting on my own blog in a way that addresses nobody in particular is the most minding-my-own-business thing possible.

(No this does not mean try to be a snarky comedian and say it was "bomb materials" or "fuck u" or whatever. Don't play with people's livelihoods, just shut the fuck up and don't type anything at all, it's not that hard.)

You make soup in a big bowl. You serve it in a smaller bowl. And then you convey it, using a spoon, to your mouth. But what is the spoon? Simply a smaller bowl still
