I hate when I hear people talk about victorian factories and child labor (in the USA) as if it's a thing of the past, something that happened "back then" but that we are too good and enlightened to do now. Child labor is alive and well. We just shipped it overseas, sent it away with the power of Globalism so we could have our cheap stuff and not think about the exploitation involved in it's creation. We need to be going forward, fighting corporations that use exploitative labor practices overseas, not go backward and erode the progress we made here.

also let's ppl as young as 14 drive the death machines we call cars to and from their job late at night

let me re-emphasize this part:

People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.

For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.

The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.

So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.

Edit: if you are able, use $5 you would otherwise use for a streaming subscription to donate to a GazaFunds campaign.

People literally calling the Public Domain a graveyard have no clue what they're talking about. Without the Public Domain, most of your beloved childhood Disney movies literally would not have been made, because they are literally based on stories that were in the Public Domain.

Please unlearn capitalistic propaganda before you go saying things like "the public domain is the graveyard of ideas". Literally the only people that benefits are giant corporations like Disney who don't want you using the Public Domain like they have been this whole damn time.

"adhd is the easiest disability to have" “sure plenty of people have adhd but most people are faking” “people are abusing the resources that WE need so that’s why i can’t get my adderall!”

there has been an artificial shortage of all adhd medication for the past 4 years in the US. every investigation into this shortage has returned with the unequivocal result that simply nobody thinks we need it enough to solve the problem.

so they point fingers at the “faker” gaming the system to get adderall who “thinks” they have adhd or is “abusing stimulants to get ahead” for a problem that Our system MANUFACTURED.

so we would be at each others throats instead of realizing that our government and big pharma is to blame for all of this. because their First priority is to punish addicts and to punish folks with adhd and to punish anyone who relies on medication. over everything else. even over profit.

I highly recommend hurting a corporation’s assets, they are not people, give them hell.

ecoterrorism really should not be considered terrorism cause like it mainly just fucks with corporation’s bottom line, not kill people or inflict terror upon the general populace. you just hurt a corp’s assets and they aren’t fucking people

taash said "they were doing it" and people ran with the interpretation of an npc that doesn't know solas or the history of the elvhenan even when bellara interjected and said, no, that's not right. that's not how it was for the elvhenan. they formed bonds before they had physical bodies. and people ran to doompost or create weird anti-solavellan shit even though mythal & solas refer to each other as old friends and when she releases him there is no tenderness or love in it. it is the act of unchaining a dog from his post, the stepping down of a general. but to each their own ig.

This is coming from a place of someone who is simply not invested in comics or the MCU aside from being a conscious adult for its heyday. But RDJ coming back as a new character should be embarrassing for Marvel 😭 they should feel embarrassed. Because as much as I like the man it just shows how much of ??? idk I want to say oligarchy the MCU is. 95% of our media is made by the same corporations, hiring the same producers and the same directors and the same actors. Over and over and over again. And they make the same slop over and over again, cutting effects budgets and writing budgets and background casting budgets and lighting budgets and sound budgets until there’s nothing left but $$$ salaries for people who are already famous and snappy clips they can crop for vertical

Been getting into Don't Starve again lately, an old interest of mine. So naturally you know I had to draw my current favorite character in the art style

Just for fun, below are some thoughts on how I imagine his character would work:

Chip's perks would share a lot of similarities to Woodie's. Unlimited fast axe use and his version of the Were-curse, the Override. He doesn't need a tool to chop trees however, since he literally comes with a built-in saw, so it essentially doubles as a free axe + free item slot

Chip would have high health and hunger (200 for each) but low sanity (100). Dropping below 50 sanity would cause him to Override, where he deals much higher damage to enemies. The trade-off is that his sanity and hunger deplete faster while in this form, so if you're fighting a boss, there's a good chance Chip will simultaneously be fighting his demons (just like Chip in his source material!!!)

The only ways to get him out of Override would be to either raise your sanity or take enough damage.
