first drafts are for making it exist

second drafts are for making it functional

That’s not quite true. The reporter behind the story, Daphne Caruana Galizia, was murdered.

[bigger-and-sharper]

Not just murdered, that could have been coincidence.

She was murdered with a fucking car bomb.

That’s not a botched robbery or a serial killer, that’s a professional assassination. Someone with money and political power, someone you might have voted for, planned and paid for this homicide.

An international group of journalists still collaborate to continue her work. It’s called The Daphne Project.

it makes me so so angry knowing how terribly buzzfeed treats their employees and knowing that they are most definitely way underpaying ryan and shane for the amount viewership they’ve brought in with unsolved and how they’re absolutely going to fuck them over and make it so that if they ever want to leave buzzfeed they can’t take any part of the unsolved brand with them and will have to start from scratch. It’s so frustrating to see this happening in real time because ryan created buzzfeed unsolved as his own series that he has personally put so much hard work into from the start and made sure to make a QUALITY show and that’s why it has become so popular. He does so much research and writing work and also stars and voices almost every episode and he’s put so much of himself into it from day 1 that unsolved truly could not and can not exist without ryan bergara. And that’s why it makes me so nervous to see how bf has tried to branch out the “unsolved” brand in a bunch of weird unrelated directions, the number one reason being to capitalize on the unsolved name to get more views on other videos, but also to tie unsolved to buzzfeed as a specifically buzzfeed property rather than ryan’s property. Keep in mind that the “buzzfeed unsolved network” was launched just mere WEEKS before the try guys launched their own independent channel after leaving buzzfeed. I know this sounds like a tinfoil hat thing and that there are bigger problems in the world but to me it’s just so grossly obvious that after the try guys left buzzfeed and were able to successfully buy their own brand from bf to be independent creators, and ended up taking a huge fanbase with them, buzzfeed wanted to make sure that NEVER happened again and so have started trying to make “unsolved” a bigger buzzfeed brand (like tasty) that ryan and shane could never possibly buy for themselves and go independent with. And it’s also just so embarrassing the type of lazy content they’ve added to the channel to branch out and make it a buzzfeed brand. Like, look at this shit

almost everything on the unsolved network channel other than buzzfeed unsolved is clearly quickly-made, clickbait content with no other goals than getting more views and subscribers for the channel. They’ve also started posting stuff that is way more exploitative than anything that’s ever been on buzzfeed unsolved and is just trying to piggyback off the general popularity of the “conspiracy theory” genre and weird serial killer fandom stuff on youtube

anyway i know this is a long rant with 0 purpose other to say fuck buzzfeed and i just really hope ryan and shane are able to leave one day and take the really cool series they’ve created with them 

[teamrock-it]

They did leave!! Theyre starting their own youtube series and company!!

[nemesisvariant]

Spread the word, fuck buzzfeed, get these guys the viewership they deserve

I need this post to go far and wide on tumblr. Please read and reblog. These screen caps are quotes from 4 black Big Brother houseguests over 4 different seasons. Their names are Dominique, Da’vonne, Bayleigh, and Kemi. They have all been victims of racism from white houseguests. These acts range from small microagressions to blatant racist remarks. Unfortunately, CBS casts these beautiful black woman to fulfill a sterotype of sassy angry black person. Recently, Kemi who is currently still on the show was told by production to “snap her finds and whip her hair back with attitude.” CBS is actively seeking to frame these woman as angry black girls. Sadly, these four houseguests we’re of aware of it because they knew if a white woman did this, no one would blink twice if they raised their voice or got upset. Reblog this to spread awareness of the racism CBS actively supports because change is needed!! They only act when there is public pressure.
