RIP REITA of the GazettE

A great Japanese musician and legendary Harajuku style icon has passed away. There was no band more popular with Harajuku visual kei fans of the 2005-2010 era. The famous Jingubashi bridge was full of REITA/GazettE cosplayers every weekend back then. RIP 🖤🖤🖤🖤

If you’re not keeping up, Cartoon Network sold off most of its original programming over the last few years to run exclusively on HBO Max, but after a merger with Discovery, HBO has taken them all down, including those that were still in production, for what is long story short a big tax write-off.

And it’s not a simple matter of them just airing or streaming somewhere else now. It’s a very complicated issue of rights and contracts and money but essentially it’s very possible that these shows will never be available again in official capacity and their creators will never see another penny from them again, either. Some completed episodes may also be lost media, indefinitely.

For a couple of series, such as Mao Mao and Infinity Train, Cartoon Network has gone back and scrubbed all tweets, youtube clips or other mention of the series existence, confirming they likely no longer have the rights to take them anywhere else.

The tweet today by the art director of Tig N’ Seek made me saddest.

A lot of people this week have simply given up on their industry careers, seeing years of their life’s work just vanish into a corporate vault overnight. Being able to point to your work on a streaming service had apparently even become a pretty critical part of the portfolios they now rely on to get new jobs.

Streaming media went from an optimistic new frontier to even worse than cable TV so suddenly.

I'm not active here like at all. I want to be but like there's just a mish mash of like good and bad memories.

I'm slightly more active (I like a lot of stuff and maybe rt stuff here and there) on twitter @sphairais (which is currently locked and set to follow request) and for the people who found me from AO3, I don't write. Anymore ff15 content at all and I don't really write much anyway.

As for why; I'm not gonna say I was good writer cause that's a lie lmao but for every nice person there was also so 2 people who were weird or straight disrespectful over fictional men and women that ya'll kinda. Killed that for me. I'm all for criticism but too many people's criticisms were "you should have wrote a/b instead of b/c" and other shit. Nothing to help me improve, just shit that gradually killed whatever drive and motive I had cause it felt like at the time I had to make people happy. It never stopped and continued well after I stopped making and engaging in content for that fanbase I think like 5 years ago.

I'm happier now and I'm over it but I felt like addressing it at the very least cause I still get the occasional message or comment on something asking why I don't write anymore, what happened. and I just. Never know how to respond to it.

i truly cannot believe someone accused mitski of keeping them as a child sex slave (that her dad BOUGHT FOR HER AS A HS GRADUATION GIFT) in her SUNY purchase dorm as like a 19 year old and not only did y’all buy that shit but also had the fucking nerve to lecture people for “celebrity worship” as though this moderately famous indie singer was kylie jenner or something all the while said person keep creating a more and more fucking ridiculous story which included a claim of suffering from stroke-level brain damage and memory loss from being pistol whipped and assassination attempts from their family members AND working with the FBI to expose their parents.....and then deleted and y’all were like “well leave them alone this is a normal response to some other trauma” ???????????????????????
