Tumblr media
Prompt: create a movie concept for a feature-length movie with a gimmick of the story being told entirely through fictional advertising spots. The movie chronicles huge social changes through society via the progressive changes in the advertisement for media offerings (new shows/movies/video games etc.), new products and businesses, clinical trials, lawsuit, hirings, government services and other PR campaigns etc.
Title: Slogans
Tagline: A story of ad breaks and gloop.
Logline: Decades of social upheaval are chronicled entirely through a series of hilarious and satirical commercials, reflecting the ever-changing landscape of a society struggling to adapt to the arrival of benign, but incredibly messy, aliens.
Concept: The film unfolds through a series of interconnected fictional commercials spanning several decades. Each ad campaign reflects the evolving societal response to the arrival of a race of friendly, but incredibly messy, aliens called the "Glorbs."
Examples of Ads:
Early Days (1970s): A wholesome family commercial for "Glorb-Be-Gone" cleaning spray, promising to eliminate the sticky green slime the Glorbs leave in their wake.
The Honeymoon Phase (1980s): A glitzy ad for "Glorb Gear" - stylish jumpsuits designed to protect against the Glorbs' unpredictable "bio-spray."
Inter-Species Dating Boom (1990s): A cheesy dating show ad for "Glorb-al Attraction," promising to find love between humans and Glorbs (despite their vastly different physical forms).
Glorb-onomics (2000s): A slick corporate ad for "Glorb-Co," a company utilizing the Glorbs' natural slime production for a new line of eco-friendly cleaning products.
The Grunge Years (2010s): A gritty commercial for "Glorb-Fighter 5000," a high-powered cleaning robot designed for the truly dedicated Glorb-haters.
The Rise of the Glorb Lobby (2020s): A heartwarming PSA from the "Glorb Integration Initiative," advocating for equal rights for the messy extraterrestrials.
Interspersed between these ads are glimpses of news reports, political debates, and legal battles reflecting the changing social climate. A class-action lawsuit against Glorb-Co for "bio-hazard negligence" transitions into a documentary on the rise of a powerful Glorb lobby pushing for "Glorb-Positive" legislation.
The humor comes from the absurdity of the changing social dynamics, the exaggerated efficiency of the cleaning products, and the ever-present Glorb slime that seems to permeate every aspect of human life.
Themes:
The challenges of interspecies coexistence.
The power of advertising to shape public opinion.
The human capacity to adapt, even to the messiest situations.
Ending:
The final ad campaign depicts a utopian future where humans and Glorbs live in harmony. A new product called "Glorb-Tastic Slime" is marketed as a fun, gooey toy for children, showcasing how even the most disruptive change can be normalized over time.
Slogans is a humorous and thought-provoking exploration of social change and adaptation in the face of the unexpected. It's a reminder that sometimes, the most profound stories can be told through the most mundane means – even a commercial for slime remover.

So a couple days ago I decided to turn down my ad frequency on Twitch because everybody complains about it, even if there are guides by big twitch streamers saying its fine. Well, today Twitch just implemented an "automatic length" feature that means I can't turn it down anymore.
Tumblr media
The way it works is: show more ads, get a better earnings percentage. 30% by default, 55% if you exceed a threshold of ads per minute. It was a nudge to encourage you to crank ad frequency up, and like I said, I found guides by bigger Twitch streamers like "put it as high as it will go, you have nothing to lose."
(This is a generalization: the idea was that a huge block of ads every hour was less obtrusive than smaller breaks closer together, because longer uninterrupted chunks was better while still getting you a good earnings rate.)
So I cranked it to max as instructed: three minutes of ads every hour. 55% share percentage. And in every single stream, literally half my viewership would complain whenever they'd hit a giant block of ads.
Twitch had two sliders: ad length and ad frequency, and you could adjust them independently to find the right sweet spot and still hopefully nail that 55% earnings rate. So, I tried to find a way to turn down ad length while also not getting to be too annoying about ad frequency.
But hitting that 55% is hard. Twitch wants you to watch so many ads, friends. The shorter the ad breaks, the more frequently they want you to have them. Cutting ad breaks shorter by 30 seconds means seeing a break 25% sooner.
3 minutes of ads every hour then becomes 2 minutes of ads every 30 minutes. That's not a very fair ratio, and I think that's the point. Again: they want you to max this stuff out, not be kind to your viewers.
I figured we'd try 150 seconds of breaks (down from 180) every 45 minutes. Just a nudge down from where it was.
Now... I can't do that. They introduced this "automatic length" setting, which removes your ability to set length/frequency independently even if you turn it off. Two sliders become one.
Tumblr media
If I want to hit that 150 second break threshold that previously kept my 55% share rate, it now FORCES it down to 30% earnings, because it only calculates per hour now. There is no "150sec/45min" setting anymore, just "150sec/hour".
Tumblr media
On the other hand, they will GLADLY let you crank it up to 3 minutes of ads every 8 minutes of stream. No problems there. By all means, make 40% of your stream an ad break. We don't care. Go nuts.
Tumblr media
Apologies in advance to all my viewers but I think Twitch literally took the tools out of my hands just now to make this better. There is no way to set it to less than "3 minutes per hour" and still earn that 55% anymore.

Why in the world do so many memes/joke images do nothing but remind me of this man.
How can a game be so good with a protagonist who’s literally a walking meme (I say this with so much platonic affection 💋)

I MADE MYSELF AN EARTHMOVER
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The idea that earthmover plushie was something i could realistically maybe make was beamed into my brain on friday may 10th at exactly 11:23 PM and then proceeded to consume my entire weekend. i did not know if this would work but i did it. i made him. my weird lopsided dog Benjamin
(I'd be happy to write up the pattern/instructions if people are interested- I think it'd be pretty simple to recreate since he's like 90% rectangles- but be warned that I have never tried to draft a plushie pattern from scratch before and it's kinda janky as hell the way the legs are attached feels like one of those illegal lego techniques so you have to promise not to make fun of me ok)

a lolcow is obviously a bad and harmful thing but studying weird people online is a wonderful and soul enriching experience. but if u treat the fun of it as a product and engage with them to get more of this product, if youre "milking" the "lolcow", youre fucked. youre going down the path of darkness. it needs to be aetherial and loose. the better alternative is looking at lolbirds instead which is quite beautiful cuz, like birdwatching, its a process where u do not enact power and force over ur subject to make it show u what u want, you just let them naturally come by and show off their plumage (10000 near identically composed deviantart illustrations of different kids show character crying while getting knead into dough and baked[this happened in a single episode of a show the artist saw when they were 4]) and then u maybe show some of ur favorite feathers of theirs to your close group of friends and then let them pass on with the wind and u keep them as a sweet memory ❤
