Online spaces are captured by oligarchs and saturated with slop—and they’re exacerbating humanity’s worst impulses. The internet is eating itself. It must be put out of its misery.

Hi, poor person here. this is an incorrect trope often used by the upper classes. both political parties cater to the very rich who have oddball priorities often driven by esoteric moral values. the poor are never given an option to vote for any of their own interests at all. thanks for reading.

I find this stuff fascinating; this is basically the animation world's equivalent of how pixel art games were designed to be played on glass tube TVs. The "imperfections" created in the process of publishing the work are part of the planned end product.
The Disney renaissance movies used to look different. They were planned to be printed on 35 mm film -- that's how they were first released. Modern editions skip that last step in the process. It was a highly developed, overlooked craft, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/disneys-fi...

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

Why I don't like talking about my eternal struggle to lose weight, even when I've been told to lose a significant amount of weight from every medical professional I've seen since before hitting puberty & my weight and physical appearance being a point of rejection in my personal & professional life
Fat people cannot win, regardless of what we do. And I’ve had enough

Yeah. I've also seen it as "Universal Orlando sees their forecasts for the rest of the year into next year, realize they don't need the capacity like they thought due to economic forces, & push up an already planned closure by 6 months as a means to quickly save some operating costs before the drop"
Supercharged so bad they’re closing it 6 months earlier than they announced

I've been trying to get my version of the Bechdel Test to catch on called the Ballard Metric. It basically asks if the creator was able to work for free or for slave wages due to an invisible financial safety net and recontextualizes the work. (I'm kinda joking idk)
Many full time creatives have “invisible safety nets” like bread-winning partners, trust funds, external support, etc. No shame on anyone, but it creates a false vision of success. The cost of going to cons alone on top of hoping to eat as a freelancer are untenable, IMO.
