If ,bad‘ TV didn‘t exist, ‚good‘ TV wouldn‘t be half as good as it is - even if that title is barely deserved as is. (And as a professional hatewatcher of Nonsensical History Stuff, I‘d be much more bored)

You know what?

I love you, fics that take months to update. I click on the newest chapter and have no memory of this place and get to go back some chapters and rediscover how much i love everything about this story.

I love you, fics that take years to update. I think of you fondly, and know your names, go search for you and see an update from this year and scream, diving in uncaring of any missed details (i will finish the update and read you in reverse because this is a treat you have bestowed)

I love you, fics that probably will never update again. Thank you for being a roman empire for my mind, thank you for teaching me about the ephemeral fandom experience, for inspiring a thousand million what if-s, for being a comfort read and a nostalgia read and a reread.

I love you fic writers, who jump into projects and stories with enthusiasm. I love you when you succeed in pumping out those chapters and that love doesn't go away when you stop.

I love you fic writers who post and then get in your own head and never feel confident enough to update, whether it's at all or whether it's just that one story.

I love you fic writers, who have a fandom or media hurt you to the point of abandoning or having a hard time with their WIPs.

I love you fic writers, who lose interest or have life changes or illness or bad memory. Thank you for being part of the fandom, a core part of the fandom. Thank you for the time spent in the fandom.

I love you, fic writers who try out something new and then stop. You're so valid.

I love you, WIP fics that may or may not ever get finished. Thank you for brightening my day in the way only you could have.

Nothing like your nephew staying the night and thoroughly destroying your carefully curated Netflix profile recommendations despite having a account for his stuff anyway

i dont know who needs to hear this but you do not need to go on a diet. you do not need to lose weight as a new year resolution. you do not need to feel shame for gaining any weight over the holidays and for enjoying yourself and the food. you do not need to tolerate diet talk after setting a boundary and if someone cant respect that then theyre being the asshole. you already have a summer body. you already are hot. theres no moral failure or shame in being fat

fully agree. But like, heres why probably not: outsourcing. Since covid (and even before) but especially since work-from-home pipelines have been introduced CGI folks and animators have known that unionizing, especially trying to get smthn strong out of the union, like actually good work hours and pay, means the jobs go elsewhere.

Like im a canadian animator, i love outsourcing, basically all of my 9 year career has been on jobs outsourced to canada from the states cause that sweet dollar conversion and tax breaks. But even with those incentives getting us work here we're starting to see our local studios 'partner' with our just fully shunt work to even cheaper countries as budgets and timelines get tighter, or production fumbles timelines real bad. So idk. It all feels so precarious?

So i'd fucking love to be able to unionize, i hate seeing my friends run into the ground for fucking childrens tv, noone deserves to do 12 hr days for gd children tv (or anything, really)

But with globalization it just seems like we'd need a full global union to make it so whole industries in unionized countries dont just dry up?

Idk it just feels very all or nothing to us right now (using a small us, me and the people i talk to abt these things) but if im wrong abt this i'd love to hear different takes! I'd desperately love to hear a different take.

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

My love for the ESC and hate for Israhell are fighting.

I mean I'm not going to watch it because fuck those zionists and everyone who supports them in any kind way but something inside me is very sad because I have been watching Eurovision every year ever since like 2017.

I do not have enough money to be dealing with all of life's bullshit right now

We gotta do something about having to get a new vision prescription every year

[reasonsforhope]

Literally begging anyone who can vote in US elections to vote, and to vote against Trump. Which means voting for Harris, not abstaining or voting third party.

My family actually did move here from an authoritarian country, where voting literally didn't matter, they literally did throw out your vote, and they literally did assassinate citizens who spoke out against them.

We would all very much like to keep living in a country where those things are not the case!

You know, the same things that Trump and his stooges have openly said they want to do. And two of the main propaganda lines for why people in the US shouldn't vote, which is a lie.

Voting matters. The parties are not the same.

And make sure to vote in down-ballot races!!!

And like. The fact that voting matters in the US is a very real reason for hope. It is something you should genuinely appreciate. We can make a difference.

And a lot of people risked their lives or even died to earn that right, and it's a right not everyone has.

Kamala will make the FUNNIEST president in all of American history 😂

the thing about trying to recommend fiction podcasts to someone who isn't familiar with them is that not only are so so many genres represented but also the level of production can fall anywhere from "basically an audiobook" to "major motion picture minus the pictures"
