#i wanna be wrong SO BAD but

[nientedal]

Love these additions so I'm gonna add to this post from here. I do want to address @strigiiformes tags, because I think they bring up an important point (state provisions):

#reblogs #actually depending on the state #children in the entertainment industry are subject to #varying laws #last sentence in the 1st paragraph is objectively false #look up child entertainment laws #the coogan account rule is very useful #but they need to do a better job helping kids access them when they're adults #i still have no idea how to get to mine

First of all, it sounds like you were a child entertainer of some kind, so I kinda hesitate to open my mouth here (also, my sympathies if you'd like them), but just to clarify: the last sentence in the 1st paragraph is pulled word for word from the website for the US Department of Labor. My response up there was focused specifically on federal labor laws because I assumed the question I was answering was referring to the FLSA. I apologize for not making that clearer.

Secondly, you're right, there are some protections available to child entertainers...but these vary by state, as you noted. And I want to point out that many states still have no specific protections for child entertainers, who are thus only protected by general labor laws in those states. On top of this, here is a link to child entertainer provisions by state, as tracked by the US DoL; as you can see, many of the states that do protect child actors limit their provisions to theater performances and similar. Not all, of course, but a non-zero number. So like, you're definitely not wrong about this! Some states do protect child entertainers! But those protections also vary by state.

And most importantly? From where I'm sitting and what I'm reading, the children of social media influencers are currently exempt even from the protections available to child entertainers. That is the problem discussed in the first article, and that's why I'm back again to clarify this point! The children of influencers ARE NOT child actors/entertainers in the eyes of the law (yet), and as such ARE NOT covered by any provisions that currently exist. Provisions & protections for child actors straight-up do not apply here because the children of influencers are not yet considered to BE child actors in any state of the USA of which I am aware.

The provisions and laws that exist right now do not apply to these children-- NONE OF THEM do-- because like @elfwreck pointed out, parents are allowed to film their kids doing family stuff. And they are allowed to post those videos online. And that second one fucking sucks, and we need to talk about it without getting sidetracked by which states do or do not have provisions that don't even apply here.

(Also please please please can someone tell me i am wrong about any or all of this. Tell me I'm missing something. Please. I am literally begging. I saw "objectively false" and got so excited 😭.)

Yeah, influencer parents are the worst.

I wanna hear more about this guy and his lore!!

Why did he fall?

What’s his connection/relationship with Lucifer?

TELL ME EVERYTHINGGG I’M HOOKED

KOKABIEL ( Angel of the Stars / Star of God / The Burning Light )

I just thought of him being created with the sole purpose of knowledge and duty ( being affiliated with the stars and astrology ), being a high-ranked angel but not enough to be one of the archangels. Having the titles, it's as if he's similar or close to Lucifer's role (before the fall) or maybe an extension. He does everything to fulfill his purpose. However, the downside is that he always gets compared with Lucifer (pre-fall).

So what he does is look up to him, idolizing someone he has never met, he's practically devoted at some point, nearing a follower. But oh so bitter and sour because all he gets is to be COMPARED.

Cherry on top that he wants to impress Michael, but Michael can barely look at him because all he sees is Lucifer.

All of his hard work feels like it's going to waste because he'll always be a shadow of someone he never knew. And that created grudges, created hate, created his rage. Thus, it's the reason for his Fall. Bro's identity revolves around a dead person (Angel Luci). That's why he's a narcissistic asshole with fucking identity and anger issues.

What's worse is meeting Lucifer himself, the person he looked up to all his life, doesn't know him.

It's not Lucifer's fault though.

so sick and tired of the “jedi are an evil and abusive cult that steals children” as if half the reason they weren’t protecting these children is bc sith were out killing them or TURNING THEM INTO SITH. they weren’t even STEALING children to begin with I thought we all knew that was Palpatine’s game not Yoda’s.

Papyrus sketches from my book the other day!

I like to think papyrus is serious and can become angry when he wants to be, but he’s such a nice and genuine sweet character he wouldn’t want to show that to the character or others.

one thing that really makes my eye twitch is when people pretend like suki isn't part of the gaang!! likeee we saw her early on in season 1 for the first time and she was a recurring character until she became a permanent and integral member of team avatar later on!! it's so sad when she's basically reduced to nothing but sokkas gf and ppl don't deem her important enough of a member and just exclude her from the group. and it's so weird bc not only was she already part of the group even before zuko, she also played a huge part in ending the war together with the gaang but people keep disregarding her and everything she's done which pisses me off so bad like omg.

what i'm trying to say is PUT SOME RESPECT ON MY GIRL SUKIS NAME!!!
