Reblogging things I like feels a lot more goblinesque than upvoting ever did. The upvotes felt like âhmm yes, I approve *golf claps*â while reblogging feels like furtively staring at something before shoving it in your mouth and scurrying back underneath the nearest piece of furniture.
Which isnât to say that I donât like it. But I definitely find myself going âmaybe I shouldnât reblog this because Iâve already reblogged a bunch of things today and I donât want to look like I donât have a life,â I say as I close the app and reopen it like one of those little automatic box toys with the switches.
I see Hollywood is now very into the idea of buying something once and then owning it forever and being able to make infinite copies. Which. Isnât quite the message they imparted upon me in my childhood. In the spirit of their own long-held stance:
âBut tonightâ is just perfect term, itâs like despite despite despite! Despite tomorrow when the sun comes up, weâre here together, the longing of holding onto a moment forever and never letting it go!
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
if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators (i am not a fan of marvel. burn disney to the ground)
