I Want To Shake Those Two Little Victorian Girl Bitchs Hands Who Faked The Pictures Of Themselves Playing

already got a blazed marvel post. the adpocalypse is closer than we think so heres your daily PSA

don't interact with corporate tumblr accounts

yes even to dunk on them. i don't care if you have the sickest burn of the century lined up, don't even give them the time of day

the eventual and inevitable fall of twitter marks a change in the advertising industry, and tumblr is unclaimed territory. if we want tumblr to remain the social media bastion it has become, it needs to remain as unappealing to corporations as possible. do not engage. in a marketing strategist's eyes, any kind of attention is good attention. don't "silence, brand" them. don't kungpowpenis them. don't send them hate anons. don't hate-follow them. corporate tumblrs are not a single entity and they will not be harassed off this site. we only have a shot at repelling them because of tumblr's lack of an algorithm. so turn off recommended posts on your dashboard, put it chronological order, and install an adblocker. if you don't seek out these blazed posts and actively ignore them when they happen upon you, the corporations will starve. in this case, the best kind of protest is a silent one

The amount of mask-off antisemitism coming out around the Kanye West and Kyrie Irving situations is genuinely making me feel sick and I’m not even Jewish. Jewish followers/people reading this post, I’m so fucking sorry, y’all don’t deserve this shit. I wish people would finally leave you the fuck alone.

If you’re trying to defend Kanye or whatever by saying “well maybe he has a point about the Jews,” genuinely go fuck yourself to the deepest pits of hell.

Hello i'm a normal person here's some stuff i drew to illustrate different traits different "person getting controlled" tropes can have

I'm going to need y'all to preemptively chill out because the actor's strike is going to mean a lot of things including shows and movies we've been anticipating being pushed way back, and absolutely minimal press tours for the next however long this lasts.

The effects of the writer's strike are months down the road which made it a whole lot easier to support because as third parties we weren't really being affected (yet), the effect of the actor's strike is going to be immediate and we're going to get a lot more propaganda of "these people are overpaid to begin with."

Remember our desire for content does not supersede these people's rights to live.

Support unions, support the strikes.

A memo I posted for my production company yesterday that is also a personal statement.

I love the HP series. It genuinely saved my life as a child with depression. I took important lessons from it about standing up for what is right, no matter what, and it helped me grow into the person that I am today, but we can do better. Part of growing up means taking a critical eye to our childhood lessons and sometimes, such as with the Potter series, we will find other, more harmful lessons embedded with the good.

My friends are more important to me than any fantasy world. We can create a real world full of magic, love, & community right here. But that means not tolerating or supporting hate. We deserve fantasy worlds that are community building, not community excluding.

I encourage all my friends who love the Potterverse to pour your money and fandom time into other worlds. I've got recommendations too! Try the So You Want to Be a Wizard series by Dianne Duane or any of the Tortal universe books by Tamora Pierce. I'm also enjoying Linden A Lewis' (very queer) First Sister series.

It's time to let this one go.

Look I know everyone is getting the porn bot follows but like .. what's are they even for? What's the point of them? What are they trying to accomplish?

Does anyone remember what happened to Radio Shack?

They started out selling niche electronics supplies. Capacitors and transformers and shit. This was never the most popular thing, but they had an audience, one that they had a real lock on. No one else was doing that, so all the electronics geeks had to go to them, back in the days before online ordering. They branched out into other electronics too, but kept doing the electronic components.

Eventually they realize that they are making more money selling cell phones and remote control cars than they were with those electronic components. After all, everyone needs a cellphone and some electronic toys, but how many people need a multimeter and some resistors?

So they pivoted, and started only selling that stuff. All cellphones, all remote control cars, stop wasting store space on this niche shit.

And then Walmart and Target and Circuit City and Best Buy ate their lunch. Those companies were already running big stores that sold cellphones and remote control cars, and they had more leverage to get lower prices and selling more stuff meant they had more reasons to go in there, and they couldn't compete. Without the niche electronics stuff that had been their core brand, there was no reason to go to their stores. Everything they sold, you could get elsewhere, and almost always for cheaper, and probably you could buy 5 other things you needed while you were there, stuff Radio Shack didn't sell.

And Radio Shack is gone now. They had a small but loyal customer base that they were never going to lose, but they decided to switch to a bigger but more fickle customer base, one that would go somewhere else for convenience or a bargain. Rather than stick with what they were great at (and only they could do), they switched to something they were only okay at... putting them in a bigger pond with a lot of bigger fish who promptly out-competed them.

If Radio Shack had stayed with their core audience, who knows what would have happened? Maybe they wouldn't have made a billion dollars, but maybe they would still be around, still serving that community, still getting by. They may have had a small audience, but they had basically no competition for that audience. But yeah, we only know for sure what would happen if they decided to attempt to go more mainstream: They fail and die. We know for sure because that's what they did.

I don't know why I keep thinking about the story of what happened to Radio Shack. It just keeps feeling relevant for some reason.

Oh no, I have come to realize a huge mistake I made.

Writing a character who is a basketball player means I keep putting myself in situations where I have to write them playing basketball. I haven't played a sport since I was, like, 12. I'm an otaku (derogatory) but I never read Slam Dunk. I am elbow deep in the Wikipedia article for Basketball as we speak.
