also, "if its free then you are the product" doesnt mean that just because you buy a service/product, you are safe from data harvesting. i have seen people use this phrase to justify the pricetag on a freemium service (aka the paid tier of an otherwise free website) and believe that they have protected themselves for $5 a month. you might not be getting served ads, but ads are not the only form of invasive data practice that services make their money on.
"if it's free then you are the product" is an important thing to remember when it comes to websites and apps. you don't have to pay to use facebook, but other companies are paying facebook for data and advertising. there is no company under capitalism that can maintain itself purely on generosity towards users. this business model is also how many modern tech monopolies are able to evade antitrust laws.
#sorry to add but ive been thinking about this ever since i saw this argument be used#and you might think of finley whos dumb enough to believe that the freemium service isnt selling your data if you pay#and the answer is letterboxd pro members on reddit

A little oneshot where, in another universe, matt is her boyfriend and ewan is completely in love with darling, matty seeing ewan looking at darling lovingly and feeling a little possessive 😈
in between
Ewan Mitchell x f!reader (Matt Smith x f!reader)
a/n: this can be read as chem ov au or as a standalone oneshot! written in Ewan's POV. 💛
main masterlist
"Oh, come on, it wasn't that bad!" Your voice carried a surprised affectation, echoing on set.
Ewan had just taken a jab at one of your all-time favourite movies. "How can you call yourself a cinephile and have that in your Letterboxd top 4?" he had exclaimed, sliding his seat closer to you.
He liked when you visited the set. In truth, he liked having you around, whenever, wherever. All you had to do was show up and he'd feel a hundred times lighter, no matter how bad his workload was for the day.
And you showed up, often. You in your usual jeans and snug coat, trudging about on the sidelines with a paper cup of coffee held in one hand like a safety device, a warm smile readily given to crew and cast members.
You were like Ewan's beacon of light.
You were also, the love of Matt's life. Recently engaged, your left hand sported a dazzling diamond ring, a glaring 'screw you' every time it caught Ewan's eye.
Still, it didn't stop him from seeking you out, from craving the sound of your laughter, from wanting to hear all the stories you tell.
Ewan wanted to beat the living daylights out of Matt when he would kiss you in front of him.
How dare he? How dare your fiancé kiss you, the love of his life?
Ewan's, that is.
"I don't care what the critics say. It's one of my favourite films and that's that," you declared, wagging a finger at him. He wanted to use it to pull you closer, catching you off guard so you stumble onto him. A blush would quickly spread across your cheeks, and you would squeak his name, all embarrassed.
Adorable.
Clumsy little darling, he would say.
Hmm, you'd smile, gazing up at him with those doe eyes, I like it when you call me that. Matt doesn't.
He's a bloody fool, isn't he?
Mhmm. Ewan?
Yes, darling?
I've seen you the way you look at me. Your palm would slide across his chest, torturingly sweet.
You have, haven't you? Clever girl.
Another smile. A cheekier one this time. I know you want me.
I'd be stupid not to. How can I not be in love with you?
You would lean in, and he would be enveloped in your scent. Why don't you show me?
Darling?
Show me how much you love me.
Your lips, so close to his, soft and inviting. All it would take is the smallest of movements, the slightest lean forward, and then he would taste —
"Ewan?" You had been waving a hand in front of his face, your expression having turned worried. "Are you okay, mate?"
Mate. He hated that. So casual. Reserved for friends, colleagues, buddies.
"Y-yeah, darling," he stammered, clearing his throat. He was about to come up with an excuse when your attention was diverted.
"There you are, my love," Matt buzzed in from somewhere, an unwelcome intrusion, ruining Ewan's moment with you.
"Hi, baby." You craned your neck as Matt swooped down to give you a kiss. One that lingered far too long for Ewan's liking. If he didn't know any better, he would have thought that Matt was doing it on purpose.
Maybe he was. The bastard.
"You all done with your scene?" you asked.
"Yes, finally. I missed my fiancée." Matt gently eased you off the chair, so he can plop down in your place, and coax you onto his lap. You wrapped your arms around his shoulders, giggling softly.
That sound was heavenly. Ewan yearned to always be at the receiving of it.
Matt planted another kiss on your cheek, then said, "I hope you weren't too bored, my love? It's a good thing you've got Ewan here to keep you company."
"Yeah," you smiled, turning to Ewan, "if only he didn't make fun of me all the time!"
Matt playfully gasped. "Are you messing with my future wife, Mitchell?"
Ewan was growing more irate by the second, seeing you snug against Matt like that. "Nothing she can't handle," he replied.
"We do have a good time," you nodded.
Ewan wished he could show you what a real good time with him was like.
Matt smirked at you. "Not as good as our times though, right, my love?" He was truly playing with fire, when he winked at Ewan and added, "Well, I better get my lady back home. I'm sure she's still sore from last night's activities."
"Matthew!" you slapped him on the chest, but you were clearly amused. "No need to taint Ewan's ears with that!"
Matt and you stood hand in hand, politely bidding Ewan goodbye before sauntering off together.
What an annoying sight.
Then you turned to look over your shoulder, smiled at him, and stuck your tongue out.
He rolled his eyes at your antics.
It was silly. It was cute.
It was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen.
And the next time you would be on set, he would surely only think the same.

RELATIONSHIP WITH SEVENTEEN <> MAKNAE LINE
MINGHAO - guide in life
THEN: Minghao was excited to have another Chinese member join them, even if they were a girl and could cause controversy amongst media and fans. While the other members fussed over Cyana whenever she was upset, Minghao would be the one to treat her normally, opting to distract her from her brooding thoughts instead. Cyana learned a lot of life skills from Minghao. NOW: Minghao and Cyana still have that iconic zen friendship. Whenever life gets a bit too much, Minghao is the one Cyana runs to. He keeps her life in balance, as he nags encourages her to eat healthily, sleep early, to meditate and to join him for tea ceremonies. On the other hand, Minghao and Cyana love gossiping in Chinese, knowing it's annoying the others that they cannot understand.
DK - sunshine duo
THEN: DK and Cyana bonded almost immediately despite the language barrier. All it took was one blazing smile from DK and a shy one from Cyana for them to become best friends. DK basically adopted the girl and people began to notice how bubbly and open Cyana would be around him. NOW: The childlike glow around their friendship hasn't faded despite both of them growing up. Cyana shines the brightest around DK and vice versa. When either of them is feeling down, the other never fails to do something extra goofy to cheer them up. Coined as the "sunshine duo," Cyana is often dragged into skits by DK to entertain fans.
MINGYU - visual double kill
THEN: Having a new member only excited Mingyu, despite it being a girl. Sure, he was a little nervous at first, but he got over it just as quickly. Cyana loved bantering with Mingyu, as they both spoke broken konglish in fit of giggles. They paired perfectly as a black cat / golden retriever duo. NOW: As they grew up, both of them never ceased to be the group's visual double kill. They often graced magazine covers together and went on weverse live to eat and interact with fans. Cyana's Mingyu's personal taster when it comes to his cooking, and in return he is often the first to taste her baking. Fans often liken the duo to a dog and its girl, as Mingyu is often photographed following behind Cyana with a big ol' grin on his face.
SEUNGKWAN - gossip buddies
THEN: In the beginning, Cyana was a bit put off by how energetic and loud Seungkwan could be. It tired her out easily, but with more time, Seungkwan became her go-to person for easy comfort. He often knew exactly what she needed at the moment and would always invite her out on impromptu outings for fun. NOW: Seungkwan played a big part in breaking Cyana's shell, allowing her to become the confident person she is today. They are the best gossip buddies now that the language barrier does not restrict them, and love being fangirls/fanboys together. Seungkwan still invites Cyana everywhere with him when they have time, introducing her to his idol friends outside of seventeen.
VERNON - goofball twins
THEN: Similar to Joshua, Vernon was excited to have a new member from the US, even more excited when he heard it'd be someone close in age. Vernon was the one that Cyana could often let her guard down and just....exist. His goofy antics miffed her a bit in the beginning but she grew to love his quirks, even adopting some of them for herself. NOW: Vernon and Cyana are movie buddies and often roommates while on tour. They love trading movie reviews (running a secret and joint letterboxd account). Vernon's the one Cyana goes to in times of distress, knowing he won't scold or fuss over her like the others might do.
DINO - twin maknaes
THEN: Dino was excited to have his wish - to have a friend his age in the group - finally granted. He was a little worried when the friend turned out to be a girl, but his outgoing nature befriended Cyana easily despite the language barrier. They were attached at the hip, babied by their members and company staff. NOW: Being the same age and growing up together, experiencing the same things close in time resulted in them being the closest duo within seventeen. They grew into natural sibling energy, with little fights, teases and a generally good time. Both known as the future of Kpop, they often push each other to do better and are each others biggest cheerleaders.

College BF!Aemond Targaryen Headcanons
☆ Aemond Targaryen x Reader
☆ Nonspecified gender and no physical attributes mentioned
☆ This of course takes place at King’s Landing University (tagged as King’s Landing Uni-verse on my tumblr). For more works in this modern uni au click on the tag!
You and Aemond met during your freshman year and didn't start dating until sophomore year
You both went on your official date after the winter break and found out you will be in one spring semester class
Aemond will try to meet up with you on days where you’re both free. However, with your extracurriculars and his time with the university’s fencing team -- it can be hard
On days he can't take you out to lunch or go to a cafe, he does send you money through a transfer app, with a cute message or just the words “please eat”
If your club needs extra hands, he's more than happy to help you, whether that would be holding stuff in his car or helping carry needed supplies
Isn’t too into “school spirit” so he doesn't care if you steal his hoodies or beanies with the KLU logo on it
Took him a while to introduce him to his other siblings properly
You of course, met Helaena at the club fair, but you formally met Helaena when she invited both of you to an museum event sponsored by her club
You met Aegon at a frat party your freshman year and when he asked you what song you were listening to for a tiktok vid, but formally met him when Aemond treated you all to lunch
Aemond doesn't use emojis often and his texting style can be quite “dry” but he makes more of an effort to type more words
You raised an eyebrow when he used ❤️ for the first time
Aemond doesn't dorm and shares a very very large apartment complex with his siblings
Hightower 1 is a cushy luxury apartment owned by his maternal grandpa
Speaking of his other family members, if your relationship is getting serious his mother Alicent is insistent on meeting you so she books a nice dinner to meet you all
You find out she works in literary archives and you both spent the evening geeking over different texts which Aemond finds endearing
Aemond isn't one for PDA but he does kiss you on the forehead and hold your hand when you walk
AT HOME...completely different story. He already lets you crash at his place but the post lecture cuddles are something different
He'll have his arm draped over your waist with his lights dim, save for the lights over his reptile tanks
If it's another long night, he’ll whisper “I love you’s” and other things he admires about you
Most of the time his compliments have to do with your intelligence and he takes pride in being with someone as successful as you
But he does tell you how pretty you are. Everyone likes hearing that he does too you know
He's low key not good at taking pics of people. When you asked him to take a pic of you in front of something he stood like 🧍
He eventually learned but he sometimes to forget to bend his knees to get the good angles
However the pics you take of him? Godly
He's so camera shy and you respect that but occasionally he’ll blush when you tell him how handsome he is
“How are you not a model yet,” You said as you snapped his photo
Actually he's been scouted a couple of times when you were both were out but he brushed them off
“I don't know them. They could be scamming me,”
Aemond is...very offline. He doesn't get any current trends, memes, or other internet jokes.
The only social media he has is a LinkedIn, Goodreads, and Letterboxd - that's it
He only starting exploring more sites or social media when you would send a link to something
When he made an Instagram you weren't even his first follower, somehow it was Aegon
For the new socials he makes, he only uses it to like and comment on your post and his families. He also has a max 20-30 followers and follows 8 people
Aemond has made it a competition to be the first person to like and comment on your posts
Aemond is very reserved around people he doesn't know but he's observant
Every gift you received from Aemond was put forth with every thought and detail he remembers about you
Your favorite colors, flowers, what clothing item you have wanted, something he saw on your online wishlist. Or even something you had off handedly mentioned -- he will get it
One time you had wanted to get a special edition book set and he got it for you (and it was signed by the author)
He secretly loves the idea of coordinating outfits (although he wears dark colors, mostly all black). If you had on an accessory or an article of clothing that matched him, he would melt
He likes anime/manga but he's pretentious and likes the 90s-early 2000s ones. He thinks the current ones are repetitive
For your first Halloween, you did your own version of Howl and Sophie from Howl’s Moving Castle
Everyone established Aemond as being a jealous and possessive lover fair tbh
But I don't think he's confrontational nor is the type to yell at you if he felt jealous
He’ll snake a hand around your waist for his sake but he trusts you and isn't particular threatened by anyone
He holds his own intelligence and being in high regard trust fund baby shit
If anything, he kind of enjoys it because he knows no one else would interest you. He knows you well enough to know that you don't even care
When uni work is getting tough, he loves to hold you. Unwind with you. Or take you out. He'll order your favorite takeout if you both don't feel like cooking, he’ll put on a movie, one time you took a shower together and he felt like he was in heaven when you shampooed his hair
Sometimes, he is afraid that you’ll both grow apart after uni. Especially if both of your plans are vastly different -- which is why his kisses and his grip feel just a bit more desperate as senior year approaches
☆ A/N: If you enjoyed this and want to be tagged in Modern Uni AU! works including headcanons or my fic Academic (Dis)Honor, feel free to comment saying you want to be added to the tag list!
Comments and reblogs are supported and encouraged! I love to see that you guys are enjoying the work. If you have any suggestions for what you want to see (or even nsfw modern uni headcanons) let me know!

Film awards season is that much closer to the end with todays' BAFTA Awards. No real surprises with OPPENHEIMER, Christopher Nolan, ANATOMY OF A FALL, Emma Stone,
Da"Vine Joy Randolph
and Cillian Murphy winning top honours.
Cillian is the first Irish EE BAFTA Best Leading Actor winner.
B-Rad, it should have been you. Just sayin'.
BAFTA Awards and after-party moments.
Host David Tennant with Bark Ruffalo.
Cillian holding court with Oppen-homie Rami Malek and his partner Emma Corrin.
MORE BAFTA TALK
Daisey Edgar Jones
Honourary The Strokes member, Dominic Sessa.
On-screen cuzzos, Archie Madekwe and Alison Oliver.
Rosamund Pike with Sophie Ellis-Bextor who performed "Murder on the Dancefloor", which hit a resurgence after its use in SALTBURN.
The Irish: Andrew Scott, *Ayo Edebiri, Paul Mescal and Alison Oliver of SALTBURN.
Shout out to Barbie Wine, wife of Bobi Wine subject of Oscar nominated documentary BOBI WINE: THE PEOPLE'S PRESIDENT. She sat at the same table as Cillian at the Oscar Nominee Luncheon and knew how to play it cool.
Paul Mescal does nothing for me, but I admit I see his charms (especially in his episode of "Chicken Shop Date") and those of his sister Nell. I may have to marry into that family...by way of Nell.
Paul being starstruck by David Beckham, Nell doing her top four Letterboxd and the Mescal family lipsycing poorly.

i can't stay quiet about this anymore. for weeks now i've thought, noo i won't write about knights of the zodiac on my blog. nobody cares. BUT it is the weirdest fucking movie i've ever seen and i need to tell you about it.
knights of the zodiac is an american made live action adaptation of the anime/manga saint seiya. before this film, i'd never even heard of it, but that doesn't matter, because i watched an interview with mackenyu (who plays seiya) who said that the director told him not to bother watching the anime or reading the manga, because he wanted this movie to be its own thing. you know, which is always a great way to bring in your core audience.
with that said, i'm viewing this film entirely on its own merit, with no context of the source material. so saint seiya fans may not want to read this.
the movie came out this past may. i was excited about it for no other reason than mackenyu starring in an american action movie. i'm honestly a little surprised people weren't more jazzed about that. there aren't a lot of japanese actors starring in big budget american action movies.
other cast members include sean bean (who, spoiler alert, dies), famke janssen, and mark dacascos. in case you don't recognize those names, they are, respectively, boromir/ned stark, jean grey from x-men, and the iron chef. if nothing else, i think it's worth watching for the utterly bizarre casting.
the premise, sort of: mackenyu, who appears to be contractually obligated to play angsty younger brother characters (i think this is the 7th thing i've seen him in where he is an angsty younger brother), has an older sister who is missing. he's a poor orphan boy who gets by on winning cage fights. or something. so boromir finds him and tells him he's destined to be athena's bodyguard, and he gets on board with this alarmingly fast, but not after antagonizing athena (who is not yet athena) and throwing out some snarky one-liners. he trains in the middle of nowhere with a masked lady who repeatedly kicks his ass, and he never changes clothes the entire time. there's other stuff too but it's secondary to the absolute batshittery of this movie.
i saw it on premiere night, which was also the premiere night of the new guardians of the galaxy movie. again, A+ move by the promotional team. so there i was on a saturday at 7pm. prime movie going time. and my best friend and i were the only ones in the theater.
although i had no real expectations for this movie beyond Mackenyu Hits Things And Is Sad, i believed one of two things would happen: it would be as terrible as it sounded, or it would actually be phenomenal. but no, it was neither bad, nor good, but a secret third thing: it scratched a deep and rabid part of my id.
and by that i mean, it appeared to be a very high budget love letter to glaringly submissive men.
here's my letterboxd review that i wrote in the brief hypomanic episode succeeding my initial viewing:
okay so first and most importantly, this scene made me actually scream:
it's a joke line, sure, but 1) he definitely means it, and 2) he immediately calls her "princess," which if you've ever read my fic, you'll know that that's a one-hit KO for me.
(putting this under a cut because it's already long)
you see how athena is framed above seiya? that is one of approximately 1000 shots where this occurs. to every male character. at one point, mackenyu perches gingerly on the back of athena's motorcycle. in fact the only male character who attempts to be dominant aggressive and toxically masculine becomes the punching bag of the film.
in the beginning, seiya is in a cage match where people are getting angry at him for "dancing," which means he doesn't fight so much as avoids getting hit and looks pretty doing it. a solid third of the movie involves a very large lady beating the crap out of him. the premise of the film is getting him to devote his entire life to a goddess and obey protect her at all costs.
i'm probably the only one who watched this movie and was like, hmm is this kink coded? am i insane for seeing this? usually when i think of kink coding i think of quentin tarantino's foot fetish, these long gaudy shots of women's feet hanging out of car windows. it's in the imagery and shot composition and power dynamics.
here, the imagery is a lot of kneeling men, the shot compositions repeatedly place the men lower than the women, and the power dynamics are simply that the women have all the power, and the men have a little, as a treat. jean grey is a straight-up femdom, leather and all.
by the end of the climax, seiya is naked, having been stripped of his (magical and very powerful) armor as pre-athena becomes athena and uh, blasts his clothes off in the process. there's probably something to be said there about, you know, literally stripping him of his power.
i think what i find particularly remarkable about this is that the repeated feminization of the male lead is treated as a good thing. a self-actualizing thing. it's the process through which he accepts himself and his destiny. that's the reason i say it's a love letter--i've known a lot of submissive men and many of them really struggle to accept that part of themselves. i had a friend once who was so ashamed of himself--not just that he was submissive, but that submission was an integral part of his identity--that he had a breakdown in my car over it. so i think it's nice seeing a vaguely positive portrayal of finding oneself through (textually) devotion and (subtextually) submission.
god help me, seiya spends the entire film being irritating and bratty. this movie is my personal kryptonite.
don't get me wrong, it's a terrible movie. the writing is awful, the direction is awful, and if it gets a second film, i'll be shocked. it received a 1.9 (out of 5) on letterboxd and a 4.4 (out of 10) on imdb.
but i've also always been a lover of the star wars prequels (and oh boy there's a lot to be said there about submissive men) and so my patience for bad writing is infinite in the face of interesting things happening on a character level. in a world of disneyfied stock plots and bloated marvel franchises, i appreciate when a movie tries to do something different, even if it doesn't do it very well.
anyway, i can't in good conscience recommend it, but i for one plan to watch it at least a hundred more times.
#i would love to tag this so i can find it later but i really don't want it to show up in the official tag#so uhh#film meta

If you, like me, wish we spent more time talking about the women of the civil rights movement, here’s a really big moment that often goes unsung: the 1969 Charleston Hospital Strike.
Protesting discriminatory treatment, the unjust termination of 12 employees, and abysmal wages, more than 60 hospital workers, all Black, most women, went on strike for 2 months. The demonstrations they staged provoked a response of over 1,000 state troopers and members of the national guard. The movement was notably supported by Coretta Scott King, widow of Martin Luther King Jr., pictured above (front center).
The investigation of the hospital that followed found 37 instances of civil rights violation, and when the state was threatened with a $12 million cut in federal funds, they yielded, rehiring the 12 employees who had been fired and agreeing to a pay increase.
One of the participants in the demonstrations, Madeline Anderson, since inducted to the Black Filmmakers Hall of Fame, made a phenomenal 30 minute documentary called “I am Somebody”. If you can find it, watch it. I was able to find a DVD at my local public library. If you’re interested in reading what I had to say about the movie, you can read my letterboxd review here.

My introduction!!
Hello! My name is Micaelyn. I’m female and a minor. I go by she/her! | I am a Lesbian | Welcome to my science-centric blog where I’ll be sharing an assortment of facts, extensive information, and artwork! Consider this blog as my info-dump haven.
Fixations / things I generally like
Science! But specifically: Marine biology, chemical oceanography, Microbiology, Genetics, and chemistry.
Birds! I favor Turkey vultures, California condors, Greater roadrunners, Storm petrels (Wilson’s), Alcids, African+King penguins, Montezuma Quails, Kea’s and Kakapos. I also like bats. My favorite species is the Indian flying fox.
Killer whales (I love the southern residents) Fun fact: I adopted J-35 Tahlequah from the whale museum last year!
Elasmobranchs, particularly Bluntnose Six-gill, Bamboo, and Scalloped Hammerhead sharks, as well as Spotted Eagle rays. Cephalopods also intrigue me, with the blanket octopus being my favorite.
The Geologic Time Scale, especially the Cambrian and Carboniferous period. I’ve committed to memory most of the Eras and periods within the Phanerozoic Eon! I love studying earths evolutionary history :3
Archaeology?!? This is a very new interest that sort of stemmed from my history class, but the combination between history and science in archaeology is very enticing :’)
Dinosaurs! My top three are Carnotaurus, Spinosaurus and parasaurolophus!
I love Nature photography! I am a nature photographer myself, I photograph mostly birds but I've also photographed different whales and flowers. Right now I shoot with a digital camera but l'm soon going to upgrade to a Canon EOS R7 paired with the RF 100-400 lens.
Fun facts about me
I’m a Pisces (Birthday is March 1st). I can speak a little Norwegian. I am a nature informed illustrator. I collect shark teeth, shells and other coastal items. Lastly I volunteer at an aquarium and I’m a member of the Florida Young birders club.
