passages that make you whisper "oh my god"

#text!#working on a paper abt the degradation of the line between real/unreal in modern society and this one paragraph blew my MIND #like it literally tied all of my other sources together #also this whole paper is about how sex has disappeared from american media so if ur interested in that i highly recommend it

School: Teaches you something for a week with historical background, context, effects, and outcomes.

One TikToker: Tells you it's fake while doing a bad contour.

Some of y'all: SCHOOL LIED?!

#you think someone would just go on social media and lie?#but their source is a personal blog citing a pop-psychology book! It has to be real!

In complete seriousness, they need to make laws about ads that say they can take no more than one, maybe two, clicks/taps to close/skip. No more "wait 10 seconds until you can skip the video, wait 10 seconds until you can skip the fake playable ad, wait 5 seconds until you can close the 'download now' overlay, puts up a half-screen in-app appstore pop-up (which at least you can close immediately)." This should literally be illegal to do.

Edit: this is blowing up so I just wanted to add (haha ad) that this was my "reasonable request" I also think there should be way more and way stricter laws around all advertising in general. I think most advertising as we know it today should be abolished.

#ThornShadow.said #advertising #edit: I also have this sick pin on my jacket that has a “no” symbol with ads #and text that says 'abolish advertising in the media // replace this source of funding with government funding based on independent ratings'#not my idea but now that it's been presented to me it doesn't sound bad #like there are film funds and art funds and whatnot

i’ve been loving watching critical role recently if for no other reason than because i get to watch a decent portion of viewers actively falling for cult tactics lmao

a forbes article describes cult tactics as when cult leaders “censor dissenting viewpoints, promote a distorted narrative and use relentless repetition and peer pressure”

ludinus needing to monologue at everyone he meets. cherry picking what information to let people know (ie the orb). showing popular world leaders (gods?) at their absolute worst as a means to win over the vulnerable. creating dissent between cult prospects and the people who they’re close to outside the cult. doesn’t take no for an answer. repeating his points over and over, in whatever context he thinks will be most persuasive. targeting people who’ve lost everything. convincing people that they’re special

matt is a genius.

#yes i cited my dang source lmao #every time i see a viewer dunking on imogen and orym for taking the gods’ side i take 3d8 psychic damage #media literacy i am BEGGING you #like oh noooo orym doesn’t like the man who killed his family. how insane of him. -_-#like i’m not saying the gods are faultless #but i am saying that they are nuanced and important to the world in a way that ludinus is trying to obscure #critical role #critrole #critical role spoilers #bells hells #critical role campaign 3 #orym of the air ashari #dorian storm #ashton greymoore #fearne calloway #imogen temult #laudna #chetney pock o'pea #braius doomseed #oh also. the man literally fucked over laudna so hard as he left and yall stillllll wanna lick his boots so bad #mine #sorry for being salty but i do feel a little insane consuming recent fan content

Palestinian freedom fighters breaking out of Gaza and reclaiming their occupied territories. They’ve taken over israeli tanks and have chased out the settlers that were on that land. They’ve launched rockets everywhere and the iron dome has failed to intercept. This is about to mark a momentous event in history.

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.

#free palestine #it feels so surreal and so shocking #there’s so much hope but so much fear #you just know they’re about to retaliate with the genocide they’ve been planning for years now #i fear for my palestinian brothers and sisters but this is so fucking huge #they tore down part of the barbed wire fence!!!! the people of Gaza are breaking out!!!!#god there’s so much more on twitter but i beg if you look do NOT look at non-palestinian sources #they’re twisting the narrative as if this isn’t retaliation for 76 years of torture #as if the israeli forces and settlers didn’t kill 4 palestinians yesterday alone #as if they haven’t killed nearly 300 palestinians this year alone #do NOT let the media trick you into thinking anything after will be a retaliation to an attack Palestine started #PALESTINE is the one retaliating #also if you’re gonna come in here with both sides or whatever sincerely block me and lmk so i can blokc you #they’ve already out out statements to leave children and the elderly alone so any middle aged fuckers are free to kill :)#which is fine since they’ve likely killed hundreds if not thousands of their friends and family and neighbors anyway #tag: important #fuck israel #gaza #tag: october 7 2023

i really can not stand the “fandom is so fun we’re all just projecting and making shit up” thing. because no i actually deeply admire the canon of my favorite media and all the intention and care and craft put into it. we are not the same.

#ur supposed to do that when the source material sucks #when theres huge gaps worth filling whether its in representation or just bad writing or SOMETHING fundamentally unexplored #when the source material is good and smart and has like 2 decades worth of really well developed characters with psychological complexity #stories about queerness and mental illness and neurodivergence and shit. all right there in canon. ripe to pick and dig ur teeth in #WHY BOTHER MAKING SHIT UP it just. dumbs down everything.#not to be like a rick and morty redditor going umm ackshully u need a high iq to understand this show ☝️🤓#but like. it’s true maybe? media literacy is kicking half this fandom’s ass #im not talking about anyone in particular just a general trend im seeing getting worse

Alastor is a complex character!

Despite being one of the few characters in Hazbin with confirmed identities (his ethnic background and sexual orientation), those identities are in of themselves, complex experiences.

There’s seemingly nothing about the character that is Black or White.

I think that’s why he is such a compelling character! Also, it’s probably one reason why he is such an attractive conduit for folks’ creative expression.

His identities are not necessarily why many people may gravitate towards him, but they do offer a chance for people to investigate him and explore a character—as unique as he is—into avenues they may not have considered before.

I can commiserate with feeling defensive of a character who shares an identity with you—ESPECIALLY an underrepresented one. Discourse is natural and completely fine! (And very educational sometimes in my experience)

But I don’t think it’s fruitful to police a fandom in these matters. Some folks come to my inbox (I delete the really rude ones) or comment sections with a very cop-like attitude to a space that’s supposed to be creative and/or fun *airhorn*

That’s my take as just some guy on the internet 🤓🛜 have a good dayyyyy

#NOT TO MENTION HE’S A CANNIBAL DEMON RADIO HOST FROM 1920S NEW ORLEANS #WHAT A GUY!!#I like media analysis and discourse #that’s why I make posts like these lol #and the source material is sooo compelling and offers chances to utilize critical thinking like this #which is just SWELL :)#and it’s also very funny and silly and I love that too #that’s why I don’t like the cop attitude some fans have #also I don’t like the police but that’s my own thing hahah #an anon sent me a detailed message that made me wanna make this post #if that anon sees this #I appreciated your message! sincerely and I thought you were quite graceful #for the anons who come into my inbox mean-spirited: catch these hands 😛
