Wow, Formalised instruction one keeps personal, yet unless it's entertainment under the legalese of fiction, there's a more direct approach.
Welp, Since essays are propaganda much like school, here's one on education within the west.
Sex workers (Prostitution) as I agree with most of what this video is on about. Thanks for the public service, and even if the opinions don't align, I know I can endorse the views like this.
Is this what they mean by world W***** three with what Chuck Palunuik wrote with pornagraphers? Like me being on the lower run of the whorearchy with its on social dynamics at play of all the way people seem to not pay attention to this blog, consumer my porn then go about their business? With that legeles of no politics, wanting only entertainment?
Is that it?
Well, rhetorically of course, there's the way I have to address sexcess of those who are discreet about what they enjoy, with their kinks that I have to address, it's like this wild west that I'm going to live in will have to see how others are paying attention.
It's like those kink accounts that post only porn to a marketing efficiency standpoint, yet I'm not optimised, I can't fit in a mold, being an intellectual with many foundherent believes ain't out of his Cascoon yet of discovering that I'm a freak who like with my Marxism.
Oh well, you follow doctrines, your article, and you're done.
W*****-Archy
Sexcess
Sexcess, that people only value me for my sexual performance. (If you ab-test a website enough, it will turn into a porn site.)
There, uncensored the word porn now, I'm done.
I'll keep track of Intellectexual, she may have some ignorant assumptions regarding with how deep I am in the beep boops, yet it will all pass.
I'll steel man this then give a balanced take. On such a unbinding, unenforced legalese. Non state sanctioned.
In the void of the internet, there is no duty, no service, the long tail of distribution. From the pundit pot stirrers, to the Kardashians trying to look their concept of cute. Yet, social media is sold to the advertisers or the society of subscriptions. Vendors, serviceability.
It shows that this could be an entertainer, not a lecturer of governance, education, journalism, religion . Focusing on televisual rather than typographic expression; showmanship.
Since fiction is the legalese used for state protection for specific expression, not natural law.
This may suspend proselytisation and ideological presumptions of the viewer. All being part of a campaign.
So no controversy, politics imply two states at tension'n conflict. Along with fictional drama being within the subject. That's a charitable view. Keeping one's head down from the pot-stirring provocateur.
However, it's like a butler saying "It's not my job to have an opinion" it does bring questions, since it is not natural law anyhow.
I cannot tell the intentions of such an entertainment-ese layer. Since Interpretation and scrutiny of the media is used to help provide meaning. All the ideological presumptions will be guessed and speculated on, along with whether it being direct like satire or propaganda.
Whatever we reach and whatever we think. (Such as the clock metaphor, clock is the measurements of matter, the sociology of goals to tell the time.)
Right reasons, wrong reasons, undefined! Wow. Interpretation can matter.
Because i'm not a gamer! ohh, maybe i'll snoop in your podcast and five years. I'm a freelance contract worker who happens to do
I agree with him with licensing here along up until AI which I'm not sure he's clarified about. I'm sure he's mislead. Legitmate fears, well, enjoy a lot of dildos and adult themes in this. (Dildo references), Lot's of sex toys
I can't find myself enjoying 95% cases of licence. Wish it was consistent.
Replace EA with 'Disney' and replace customers with Independent artists. Class analysis and dialectical materialism.
It goes south with her reaction to the AI thought, Peter Coffin, Alexander Avile, Sunny'm Cheax, Andy Masley have responded better.
Now I'll see if I can make with Peter Coffin, being the citizen investigator I will have to see his own way with the ai. Oh She's wrong on NFTS too. So, I must do my bid adieu as a customer and not follow.
Mass commodified content designed for kiddies evaporates from my brain from how easy consumable it is, guess the big-wigs knew, doing some thinking. I can't remember a Mr Beast video.
Well, it's not for me. Kids do love it, Not going to Junophobia it though, this is a thing with social media though, everybody comes and run it down to the ground, from everypart.
Guess FlazzFire has gone the edutainment route and deciding on to be a comedian, taking the vulgarism with it and writing like Chuck Palunuik.
My fave part of this collage.
I'll keep following him. Cussy as it is, not as Academically rigorous. Welp, that's the problem with the plot/spectacle of Aristotle.
Happy Halloween! Here's a off-the-cuff essay by a philosophy student wanting literacy.
Yet I know I'll have to deal with mass communicating towards an illiterate audience outside.
What convinced me was Neil postman. Even with my Art Director brain that I have to learn at literacy, I haven't had to chance to read all the socialism books so that's why some of my feed are videos, so even if I'm not literate, I'm aware of the changing concepts closely rela
Otherwise, you get Vaush, missed that train, or Ed Zitron.
I call this new strain the prosumer leftism, which is absorbed within itself of its own social media bubble. Or wilfully misinformed leftism.
Yet with the right/left graph and the political compass, I'm going to have to do another post on that.
Phrenology, and you are the product with prosumer ai-detection.
Well, even with doctrinaires still madden me. Here's idea/expression dichotomy. The law does not protect genre, good one too. Idea's can't be selecting, they're collectively owned by the commons, and then there's the way that I'm going to happen. Expand the conception of copyright till it's impossible.
whenever someone suggests that a webtool can detect AI images, I do check them against: 1. a digital illustration 100% hand drawn by me 2. a photomanipulation created by me 3. a video game screenshot, unedited and taken by me so far, not a single "AI detector" has ever got 2 out of 3 correct that is WORSE THAN USELESS. "Determining which images have been created or altered with generative tools" isn't even a use case for gen-AI, somehow okay, well, that's your right, OP, but just so you know the linked tools were: wasitai.com [failed 1 and 3, correctly identified 2 as "not AI"] and thehive.ai/apis/ai-gene... [failed 2, said 3 "might include some AI elements", correctly identified 1 as "not AI"] usually I delete quote posts if the OP blocks me but I guess I'll let this one circulate, it's important to be aware of the limits of these apps. the best tool for detecting generated images and text is and remains: your human eyeballs. sorry
Magic bullet solutions
Video on educational applications.
Education industry complex, what are you going to do huh?
(There's a reference to gentilia storage.) Averages, I do not mind making a stream of consciousness response/reaction, yet at this time it's all meant to be forgiven. Time for another way.
You want to see a dead body?
Yet with all this computationalism, with Ai being the medium and the metaphor, it's now a claim ot explore this and how it's deplored. It's like we are in the stage of where with our media, it's becoming our metaphor with learning what it means to distribute our labour into our hands.
This content farm will continue and fix what is not broken. Delivering to their audience fast and cheaper, it's react-slop like them all.
Well, Thank you, Hume Is-ought gap, between exchange value and use value, and with direct response marketing and brand marketing in this age of information age.
What's on the marxist labour theory of value tube today? What's on the woob tube? I'll keep editorial control here and commitments.
In Couch Gregor attempts to have an opinion on statecraft. See this as the research scrapbook where I draw inspiration on where to fictionalize.
BadMouse, some say he's gone ideological shopping, I'd say he's become foundherent with the syncretism that we currently reside. I don't think his ML videos fully hit the mark, some still believe in it like the Finnish Bolshevik, I'm not. Can only wish the anarchist well as he goes his merry way with my own liberal to Ancom
Really, it's all a journey, ain't it? I'm not like I have anything else to lose in these unauthorized.
Guess this is the alternative to the copyright, which require virality of exposure and advertisers within a computational prospecting for attention economy these days.
Tbh, Welfare > UBI, it's still too much of a libertarian idea even if it's tried in Ireland.
So this is the idea of the right to the city, well, that's the policy of decommodification along with the state-craft to be taken, do recommend following this chap.
These are all policy changes though, radical systemic changes that sow the seeds to the creeping, changing urbanism or our society that are meant for the community action. Be it for the quiet revolts that happen underneath this domain.
So with these contradictions that will form, they will happen, the foundherent resolving as these hierarchal, horizontal alignment of distribution. Wonder what Finnish Bolshevik is doing? Oh, Talking about dialectal materialism theory and atheism.
I wonder if I'll keep following, haven't gone through his body of work fully.
The amazing atheist happened to drop a video, and he was an opportunist, I decided to check out that video in the bibliography, it was edgy calling Sargon a pick me grifter. Honest with Thunderfoot and his Anita whining. Welp, Thank you for trying to do a cogent video.
Only I respected Daniel Dennet.
What's happening on 1dime? I watched this long-form essay, everbody is splitting off again.Ah, Marxism, it may have disinformation or not. Thanks anway 1dime, you may be called a liberal, yet I know doing edutainment for the masses could be a thing, even if some argue it's a stepping stone.
Now, here's the question, am I Marxist? I'm an entertainer first, not a fighter. Yet I know conflict theory has influenced many an action flick and provided tension, that's with Aristotle theory of the unity of opposites is.
Foundherent will be within the label though of what I do, into socialism.
So yeah, dialectical materialism only a means of anaylsis.
In the fitness news today, sombody I trusted ended falling down. I'm not surprised. Since I'm perptually brought to be made to report on the fitness news, there a plenty of experts.
The problem with a doctorate is when somebody reads it, putting this here.
"This is the appeal not to the highest standard, it's the appeal to the lowest possible standard" Ouch. The largest mental model.
I don't follow the fitness drama that much, everybody loves drama because it fishes for the commodified attention, yet we know I'm going to serve you a snippet here since editorials here are meant to spill the tea, so here's the tea.
Everybody needs drama, everybody wants tantrums, everybody wants something they editorialize about. According to some communities, nothing can editorialize about, yet one of the things that feels litigable (that's etymology for a tribunal, a tribe play'n quarrel) Then it's time, that's the quarrel of quarrels.)
Yet I did not care that much about Mike here and now.
Personally, I'll have to moderate the volume at my gym and hope that my hernia gets recovered.
Follow up, you don't have to watch, I ain't ya dad!
Sorry, Sometimes I like my slop'n clickbait. ( Or if somebody will call Clear argumentation from a physicist. Stiring the pot. )
Wow, Another video, the series continues
It shows that I can't follow certain fitness influencers because it's not that elaborate, there's only so much when the industry of professionalism.
Pouring bleach down a toilet, to get rid of all the undesirables. This is the practice of doing editorials.
Aaah, punditry, the path of commitment, or of clownish pretentiousness. Gaming the attention economy, along with its feedback loops of freelance contract workers.
Such is the void/abyss, to divine in it. So that follower list, that thing, undiscovered pouring and spring cleanings happen, unbeknowst of tiny unmeasured judgements, stuff beyond my purview right out of the grasp.
So time to be ameliorative! Time to consider both good and bad, then carry on.
Escaping the bleach titanic, cleaning everything. All this confusion, Epistemic crisis and hyperreality and all the mushy talking points, no leaders, all the silly talk, I'd have to trust a self or anatta, non-self to be proud off. All this financial computationalism in the air, it's all a malaise.
Skull for memory, No reference. Continuing the diplomacy or discourse of AI, well, On here atleast.
Have you watched Alex Avile and the backlash to the backlash to the backlash? Welp, you are in it right now, I've been trying to build bridges. I'd recommend you watch this before you become here.
I must commend Alex for not taking his video down, this odd collusion of hollywood conservatives that are hijacking and destroying movements needs to be noted.
(Cw, human rights rambling from a tired couch. Including a bit of a socialist analyst) Aaah, The defeatist, misrablist dead end of copyright, if Harlen can call them the 7th circle of hell with publishers, maybe I can place a spicy opinion here.
Silence is capital, another monopoly, when everybody is trying to build trust on the internet, the editorial confessions roll out. Along with the drab examination of the liberal centrists who'd happen to defend the private proporty relations from consolidating commidy value, oh, such a thing that you could state
Journalists don't owe the entertainment media pr any slack. Alex Avile self-publishing that Nickles group disclosure. With such is the diplomatic to the copyright maximalists that he got crudded on. It's always a game, troll bait, and a hornets nest that does not have. He did not sign a non-disclosure deal unlike those of the copyright alliance did so he did a community service.
There's something awfully centrist with publishers wanting to consolidate the means of distribution then raise the commodity value of art, really? Is that the culture industry, I do commodity fetishism
From Deepdreamnights, a public domain artists.
"The anti-AI side isn't actually anti-AI, they're pro-regulatory-capture-of-AI-by-Megacorporations. The copyright anti-AI argument conveniently leaves it open for Disney, Warner Bros, Nintendo, Sony, the RIAA, all to make their own AI systems to lower their production costs, because they own more than enough material to make powerful datasets. They get it, you don't, worst of all possible worlds."
It was actually a very thematically important foreshadowing arc setting up the Online Artist Community™'s tragic descent into the very thing they sought to destroy (people who want to expand the digital mechanisms to enforce the concept of ownership of .jpgs)
So yes, in light of this new info, I'll be keeping a meter at the CYA copyright enforcement that will only entail a unsafer internet. It's there to empower publishers, not the artists.
xormetric @tentacle.expert· 08/01/2024 SMALL ARTISTS ARE NOT PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT copyright is a monopoly. to make a living, artists sell that monopoly to publishers. Thereby losing the right to their own art. Copyright is enforced in court. Taking someone to court costs money. Who, of the small artist and the corporation, has money?"
There are plenty of rights more important than copyright, freedom of expression is one of them, including the freedom to assembly and to protest. Yet it's alarming, so I'll keep a head low her and be sure to differentiate the western artists from the lower working classes.
It's why I've not been posting much, there are absurd paranoia brewing, and it's getting bleak, so sense of discussion as there no's certainty on this issue. Odd activities like Style phrenology along with echo chambers, doing research on this topic like it matters, people need to know the community service of Couch Gregor.
Yet this dirt-digging and wild speculation of ad-hominins only means that they're creating a spectre of free like Nintendo does with its own copyright, only that will understand that this time it's left everybody on the statecraft map in disarray.
I'll leave out with another quote retweet. It's a understatment that this DRM enforcement is going to accidentally be the most second order pro-ai, the bad pro-ai move that's going be, a worser regime overall.
So freedom of expression > copyright, the publishing script puts too much in the hands of publishers and record labels.
@valkyrie.hacker.gf Follow we're literally going to get mandatory DRM brain implants at this rate
I feel weird being in the "middle" on the AI Argument. The hype machine is out of control, but the anti-AI crowd is almost as crazy with the only redeeming quality being that they have very little control over anything.
I think that generative AI is anywhere from "a cute toy" to "mildly useful in limited contexts" and that Big Tech companies did nothing wrong in training genAI models the way they did because a stricter reading of fair use would risk disallowing many types of transformative work.
I think that the way it's being deployed by the hype-mongers is frequently irresponsible and sometimes deliberately attempting to provoke backlash. I think the long-term destabilizing impacts are minor compared to the overreaction dynamics at play currently.
Like the video model demo from OpenAI recently where they generated a fake closed circuit video of Sam Altman stealing GPUs from BestBuy or w/e seems like it must've been calculated to spook people.
(My response to the hype mongers is well, sex sells, for better or worse.)
Based on social media, you might think the US was in the middle of a Butlerian Jihad. But IRL neither party has shown much appetite for regulating AI; universities aren't trying to ban it; content industries are adapting to it. The venting is anti-correlated with change.
This is why no one is writing 10k words a week to counter Zitron's ~10k words about the uselessness of models, inevitability of collapse, &c. You don't need to write 10k words every week arguing that the moon should continue to orbit the earth. People who like the moon's orbit can chill.
I look at Alex Avile for speaking the truth, yet the Tailism of other entertainers along with the inanity of media monopolists. Those who consolidate the distribution. Means That one should always caution with publishers being friendly, there is already an agonise going on.
(Maybe it's a homage to a comic, oh no, well, another way to not trust micro-bloggers. Slop + Taxonomy makes the discourse. Inspired by the contaxomy from quote mining.)
This is journalism slop to begin with. Amanda herself called these content hot-dogs rather than alchemy.
In the ludo-primordial soup of our subconsciousness of the play of our media, there's the struggle that existence since the dawn of time, it's our slop.
Appeal to composition ( oh boy, the fallacy lover isn't I, don't worry I do hate the argumentation that happens.) I can show if things are applied to new meaning. My Atheist was meant to do logic it with fallacies, even there were argument with others of fallacies a multiplying in every way. Oh, Can't compete with that infinity of fallacy.
Misquotes and quote mining, and the mountains out of molehills complex. Maybe due to the shortage of my impressions, with it quickly going out of my head, it's exiting my head. I'm not responsible for every little shock box when within twitter it happens to be another false, moral panic.
We know we are averages, and the unique commodity fetishier is the one that's made with all the things out of the way, yet with commentary non-fiction there's this aggressively average in the hopes of collecting views and impressions for the way, everybody's doing it, it's the social media doing its thing. Context collapse.
ICYMI Flazfire happened to do a video on this, yes, theres B-slur at the end which i don't personally use, no, I don't want to elaborate.
I'd need to filter this out, and it's not unique yet exasperated by ai, (It's become kitsch.) Welp, I'm a honest slopper; I do entertainment, I don't lecture. Yet even lectures are sloppified into a slush as Flazfire has pointed out.
Everything compact and its commitments are made into nothing, into a middle autonomy to try to do it. Welp, can't compete with it, not ai, not human, it's the publishers and the platform hosts that lead it. Moral panic slop, Seo Slop, Advertising slop, averages, always averages that are made sufficient with a workflow of today. Such is the age of information. We happy mutants will know about it as the masses play with it in their droves.
Guess with this age of cool-hunting an individualism, it's become more evident to come through. Even with the explosive element of radicalism and opposition, that negates meaning. We have been warned, and we are in it, from Harlan Ellison calling it out after rejecting the guild and the regressive elements of unions. To elsa-gate and today.
To add more, and to contrast it with the evergreen stuff. Here's a definition from this on slop. Welp, it's 20 min read, and it's got an examination of its relationship with the phemonon, and, what Sam Altman has released.
"Let's start with the intuition. What is slop?
Slop is written to pad the word count. Slop is when you procrastinate on your college essay and crap something out the night it's due. Slop is the logical conclusion of chasing the algorithm. Slop is the distilled extruded essence of the Id. Slop is when you have a formula and stick to it. Slop is when you can guess the exact minute in a police procedural where they find the killer because it's the same in every episode. Slop is when the k-complexity of the generator is low enough that you can infer its pattern. Slop is eating lunchables every day at school until you puke. Slop is when a measure ceases to be a good target. Slop is the 12th sequel to a superhero movie. Slop is generated from the authors prior without new thinking or evidence. Slop is Gell-Mann amnesia. Slop is in distribution. Slop is when the authors purpose for writing is money. Slop is a failure to say anything interesting. Slop is what you find at the bottom of the incentive gradient. Slop is a deeper simulacra level than it purports to be. Slop is vibes."
Plus, he recommended this video that's evergreen, even if I'm not interested in music making, I found it fascinating of creative software, as a bonus.
Double Bonus links!
https://simulacro.co.uk/introduction-to-slop-studies/ Somebody did a dissertation on the AI branch growth, Even though I find contradictions within the concept of encruddification, there has potential with the concept of epistemic crisis and collapse. Welp, Copywriters doing financial computationalism (David Oglivy) and the culture industry,
Guess this is a frank confessional on state-craft. Examining ideologies and then moving back into diplomatic entertainment. This will be the most labelist piece, and all these are not to be pressures as I circulate through the ideological forces around my time and place.
DIPLOMATIC ENTERTAINMENT, even that has contradictions, don't you see? Yet here we go with another narrativising pull. As a host! Yet State-craft opinion is something for those who never tire of it.
Play this while I type, shall we?
Defeatism, miserablism. And Depressive hedonism. Is that the way of this little book, recommended by Alex Avile? It is all, merely gothic, gothic materialism of fragmented self dwindling in the vastness. I dig it. I've had to ameliorate with looking into the darkness and bringing the stuff out of me.
There's a lot to appreciate here, If I can skip the talks of Stalinism/Marxist Leninism then it's pretty good of capturing the mass media cultish zeitgeist that predominates our lives as capital is made to social, then it's returned in that of a realist mindset as everything is reduced into an exchange value of such with all the gift ecomonys returning into a questionable mirage.
Everything to be bastardized I guess, Or what was Marc Fischer's goal of acid communism to come up with from such concepts to our ends and desires, of such drab material gothic ends.
Then it goes back again. Yet his quote "It's easier to imagine the end of the world than it is to imagine the end of capitalism" Wow, that draws an image within the cosiere circles. They're all hidden away within private accounts of twitter now, 2018 was a way to go.
Well, it certainly shines a light of my own pluralist tendencies and ideological presuppositions. Twitter feels like it's regressed, along with its containment unit of Bluesky, and I'm here, wondering the hours like it shall get along. I keep flipping back and forth of the principles of anarchism and Marxism scroll from the site as things draw around from confessional after confessional, it feels like I'll have to examine all the statecraft structuralisations and introspect.
Now there's tension between the Luddites and the accelerationists with that tension, I cannot relate to the Luddites any more due to the guild failure, since with my own confession like with Harlan Ellison, even guilds and unions can sell out.
Even as a drift on, I'm resonating with Neil Postman's and Mark Fischer's Accelerationist. One that is different, one with technology. Yet now, at this rate, We are to deal with such contradictions as of now.
Why, oh why, do I happen to come, where every artist justifies making money with Michelangelo and Shakespeare commercial plays, that the Mona Lisa was a non-profit project. Oh, such a complication.
1Dime, Badmouse, Finnishbolshevik (A little, one video on libertarian socialist rants), and Burn These books, Noj Rants. I keep reading these statecraft books. I'm not even as I can speak with authority as a drifting fabric on soviet historiography. Undecided as a ponder through, I've still got the society of the spectacle silently judging me as try to incorporate it within the fictional complexities of my artwork.
Thanks for reading. I'll get back to it. Along with the labelism. Your still going to get labelled anyway.
(Oh, and you're wondering why there cannot be between unity, I think of this by Badmouse, could not fully follow him when he left the ml space, yet with the time he's become a libertarian socialist. Welp, that's what ideological primordial souping does to you. Still like his electorlism, and baby vaush video minus the adultism.)
(I don't even watch Vaush, guess a lot of info has been revealed about him that Badmouse was incorrect about, oh well, that's truth value)
Neither Techonopoly of mediamonopoly (That's what copyright is btw, state-sanction monopoly that is there to empower the publishers, not us), It could be the with the right of the city and with being "A loving resistance fighter", or a diplomatic entertainer. So that we can move past such a pleasure principle and interpassive proconsumerism that we can see our own cycles.
Deep, man. Some concepts to take and give away, was he really pushing for a space-communism? Or was it meant
That's what these stream of consciousness happen though, hypocrisy naturally emerge, then with error theory they are naturally for a better collaboration. Or 'better' means monopoly/monopsomy.
Addendum:
(Further post-edit note, I'm not following Cory Doctorow much now, he's right on copyright yet this time to understand encrudificaiton, it has to go deeper than that when it comes to host service deterioration.)
Remember something similar, not directly, when it comes to the tastemaker and trendsetter, that's with economy and the strength of joy? Being the centre of the entertainment marked with a mawkish fence sitting, universal appeal, a goofy little grin and a candy of the family friendly comfy. Dangerous statecraft and regime status quo.
Yet you've got hacks when it comes to PR, come on all as it's with a thousand lawsuits bougie investments. Licensing only cares about privatisation of property, making style and then scraping next, what will that silly mind come up with?
Bu-Bye!
My own comic is under notice and too off-model for you, so I'll guess I'll get away with it.
When mass entertainment and its apologists happen to carry the banality on, a company not related yet affliated with disney must give the audience what it wants.
That's cultural conserve where everything must be contained, the releived for the kiddies.
Welp con-serve, the serve as a service that's made clear.
Servicers of vendors are to be expected, as the hacks from the art.
The great gatsby was written by a copywriter.

I need people to understand that Disney has not been a force for good in decades, if it ever was, and that it’s understanding of stories as a pacifying rather than liberating force rivals Christianity’s.
It’s the First Lady of the status quo, the quelling soft power.
"Juan Escalante
@juansaaa.com
DISNEY: Wins 5 Emmys for ANDOR, a show about resisting fascism
ALSO DISNEY: Bends the knee to the federal government and suspends Jimmy Jimmy Kimmel for resisting fascism
Disney, probably better than any other corporate storyteller, has a finely honed sense of exactly how much liberation to season its stories with to make you feel like progress is happening, things are better than they used to be, the arc of history is one of inevitable progress.
That is true on both a micro and a macro level. It’s big enough to let some queer artists, artists of color, artists who wanted to tell countercultural stories, have a little corner of the spotlight. Why not? It’s not going to tank Disney. Have fun!
They can tell their stories and you can marvel that they got funding and meanwhile Disney will help make sure very little changes on a legislative level.
Sure! Have some stories about revolution! Stories that make you feel good, rather than angry. Stories about things getting better.
And hey, even a few that might make you angry, or might not feel good, or might make you question that status quo a little.
The thing is, the Disney pot is big enough that that little bit of spice isn’t going to noticeably change the spice level of the entire stew.
The biggest projects are going to reinforce the status quo, and that’s enough that they probably don’t even need to disavow any of those little projects.
Disney is status quo soft power, the First Lady who listens sympathetically to the children at hospitals dying because health care isn’t affordable, who raises funds for some of the photogenic ones, and you think hey her husband can’t be that bad, look how compassionate and beautiful she is.
Never forget how much faster things would become public domain if it weren’t for Disney. Never forget how it treats its laundry workers. Never forget how it insisted on being the government of a bit of Florida.
Disney is not going to meaningfully stand up to the powers that be because it’s one.
I think escapism is vitally important to emotional health, and also, I think Disney uses it to make you nod along rather than rebel.
Look, I fell for it a few times and I get it, but in 2025 I need you to know that every giant corporation out there would harvest you for parts of it thought it could get away with it, and most brands are owned by one of those corporations.
And no, it’s not all profit-driven. The idea that corporations are purely rational actors is itself propaganda."
Welp, A legal fiction, a collective popular appeal. Informally, I'll put this by solar sands to help with this. The john lockean concept or monopoly that's bound with the legal framework of copyright, (Makes me sympathetic to the concept of copyleft.)
I'd rather cooperate than compete, yet who's interests here are being served, a utopian infinity of might?
ICYMI here's Solar sand's video on this.
I mean, this is was copys will happen, it will continue, and why I boycott Disney from mid 2016's, Welp, there you go. Visual effect artists are going to have to wrestle with the new teck as the time going forward. Oh boy, I'm going to explain my positioning again.
(The minecraft got a hit, merely shows how small these sectors of the internet are with all these things going on, yet don't worry, I appreciate you reading this.)
So yeah I'll forever be fair in my characterisation of these centrist publishers, the panopticon of direct response rates. Mmm, Still in the building, are they?
(Enough gags and the clown suit Back the the lawsuits with Couch Gregor unmasking his deontology.
Thanks, Wikipedia. Well, with a legal perspective aligning one thing at a time. I'm not a lawyer, as the first Sturgeons law. Deciphering the legalese and making sense that's not twitterian. Twitterian embarrassment interpretations shall not cease here.
Serious law lecture, from Immanuel Kant and philosophy, they shall be made.
90-10 of everything his crud, the law of mediocrity. Mediocracy! Well, this is the Law of Slop. The law of Kitsch. Where monopoloys of random monopolys appear, and then the publishers scoop them up, then it all happens again. How do they intersect with the economy, and with choke points.
You may keep the body or so that others can't be compulsively aggressive with crimes of wild passion. Clowns running into the bank with anonymity and death threats with harassment are all a wild passion.
The deontological where it applies internally to logically make sense, in order for the conception of consciousness to exist. (Pretty deep and philosophical, I know, abstract stuff about the mind and the phycology I learned as an atheist. )
Internal, ideological consistent, that's duty and deduction for ya.
Deontology adjustments to content ID, learning/access rights. Those don't meat with Kantian second categorial imperative, to be treated like an end rather than a means, with consciousness not accounted for. It's foundherent to law theory.
Who benefits? Well, finances may not matter in terms of the appeal to motive. Which is a informal fallacy, (Reasons need to be provided for it to foundherently matter)
Appeal to motive where two lawyers and their pay cheques enter within a case does not account for the validity of the case.
Appeal to motive with a grifter like Mike Hearn selling the fitness frog/ab wheel is another matter, though.
Got this from Cory Doctorow's copyright cases ( Although I don't think averages are technically correct) another, Nobody want's to read your *S---* within law. The eagle does not concern itself with flies. Pertaining with minimal things, systemically with the environment. As it contains to structure of the large pictures, which extends to the metaphysics of property and of energy redistribution.
(Cw: Callousness) In reflection with the other post, thinking verbally rather than visually has really given me a new perspective on this issue.
Sometimes, battle ain't worth it, with the recent witch-hunts I keep seeing.
Nobody wants to hire an abuser. Lifes too short. Against professional entertainment etiquette. Callousness, or disillusionment, regardless, holier than though with such a perception.
I can understand why that'd microbloggers leave an information exchange. PowerPoint, where the discourse is out of context and with screenshots of little things where correlation those not cause causation, with drive-by science.
Micro-bloggers that is in within Twitter and Bsky.
Welp, the masses want their entertainment with this, so it's only this that will fit it. Prosumer as it were, the mass's one that we'll get.
Oh no, I use meme, how ironic, huh? Prosumers man, prosumers.
10 months ago, with its updated journalism defer Alex Avile/Cory Doctorow with regard to the copyright/environment (Andy Masley) and others, I think this was a touchstone from somebody who ain't academic looking from the outside in. "Aggressively bright light to how hive-minded and dumb" ahh Flazfire. Anyway, I'm going to be more recluse and not post this on the micro-bloggers.
(Got to give credit, here's the tweet he's referenced) Why I don't go on Twitter. Or what outsiders looking inside are saying. Is this what trolls think who poison the well? Oh, had to credit the guy here's. Here's another video that could be, I'm thinking being a visual-minded person having to integrate within verbal thoughts. Here's a summation of the discourse back in 2012, and it still continues.
I guess with the moral panic slop I have to wade through, I'll see if I can keep this off microbloggers because of lack of citations. Trucking through incoherence and weirdness. (This ain't bloobergum kind of thing.)
I'm Mad as twisted corduroy, and I'm not going to take it any more!
Kyle has done better for journalistic ethics, and media theory than that certain G8888ber gong.
Went through Kyle, wanting to feel like pretentious as a positive character trait. Despite interpretation of the historic stuff being here and there.
Jon Stewart - "Partisan hackery."
The thing about politics is, organisation is messy. So there's more group signifiers of status identity being handled with various network scams. Black Friday is one, another is a reflexive one.
This really helped make my own reactive/responses along with who they serve, along with the split-second reflexives that are meant to be considered, even at the tiniest fraction.
Sharing this old fitness YouTube by elite fitness, His endorsement of 3 favourite YouTubers of Mike Isratel is outdated, yet its relevant
Since they're a informal group looking for a fun little mockery of performative high school dynamics. It's easier to follow such a mentality, of which it is.
Yet it's all a status role game too, which is high, which is pretentiously high to laugh at to release tension with anti-drama? Or do we gag at, which controversy it is to follow to be part of the in-group, which is to be excluded? Where is the line.
All rhetorical questioning as where the friend group unpredictably goes and win's the viral lottery.
Hunting packs, I don't know what to know about them. Mob Manipulation is something that ain't
So don't bet on the scarce chance of going viral and then sponsorships.
I think of this quote when it comes to popular/unpopular with celebrity, not breaching certain rule-of-laws with others.
"Free speech is meant to protect unpopular speech. Popular speech, by definition, needs no protection." Neal Boortz
It was the last quote that was quoted within the atheist splits years ago.
This video made me think of types to either split hairs or think of changing definitions.
Nioce entertainment editorial on the emoification of the media as political science influenced our society and entertainment reflected that, especially with that game with the hedgehog and the gun.
Edgy Definition: Edgy emo is an exploration of themes of darkness and angst.
I don't mind prescriptive and cautionary tales, dark art has always a been as much as horror has been around, edger allan poe's poetry, such as comes from the sprouts of gothic literature has been into our art and entertainment.
Anne D. Bernstein (Rest in peace) Could be possibly written this a point of Dariah's characterisation, yet this is all the matter of coolhunting shown through the documentary the merchants of cool by Doug Ruskoff Welcome to the machine.
Marketing being neutral as with propaganda of ideological and material justifications, all that pillow. Well, as thinking marketised within sociopolitical contexts.
Another is when creativity and art, where meeting any criteria of measure ain't the point, or so the specifcation.
Another is race to the bottom and profit incentive* I forgot that.
