everyone hates orange until they actually see her in context. "oh it's such an ugly color, too bright!" look at sunsets and autumn, look at campfires and deserts. she's the most beautiful and special part of the scene. now apologize.

To anyone who is having a bad day, I give you this hamster wearing a flower hat.
This post is now ten years old and still circulating. It has outlived countless generations of hamsters and the entire Trump administration, and people still pass it around because this one photographer a decade ago decided to put a little goodness into the world, and it makes me so happy

I actually wonder if Netflix was defrauding the WGA/SAG and that’s why they’re not negotiating.
I have seen this take knocking around. Something like, "any concession at all would entail revealing numbers that the streaming services have never revealed, and that may in turn reveal basis for legal action"
Because like, the streaming numbers for a top 10 show (supernatural) either have to be high enough that the writers should’ve been paid residuals, or low enough that the shareholders are being defrauded
This is compelling to me
And also, even if one did not think it was true, it’s worth talking about, because the steaming platforms will then have to answer to the rumours and that’s movement on their part
Agreed. Even if the streamers are doing things completely above board (which I personally think is extremely unlikely at this point but that has more to do with my baseline suspicion of shareholder capitalism as a whole than anything specific) it's still very... well, Odd.
Like. SPN was and still is a Big Deal. Netflix's own numbers are saying that it continues to be a Big Deal. So... Why are there no residuals? That's not how the vague approximation of the system that was all I ever got from high school econ says that this is supposed to work. So... How is it actually working?
There was a lawsuit related to this from the TV show Bones:
When you read a fic for smut and it turns out to be well written with a good plot.

tiktokers who say classic lit is bad because its not relatable 1. thats not the fucking point 2. you've clearly never read twelfth night as a trans bisexual
you've clearly never read Frankenstein as a student
If you're fucked up enough a lot of classic lit suddenly becomes uncomfortably relatable tbh.
This is 100% true, but also: literature is a great way to engage with people you don't actually relate to, and practice feeling empathy for them anyway. I have never been in a battle, but I have cried over the Iliad multiple times because I was suddenly made very aware that every single war has people like Hector in it, who leave their families one day and just never come home to them. Please keep looking for things you find relatable in unexpected places - but not everything has to be relatable for it to be worthwhile.
Not everything has to be about you to be worth reading
I love this scene as much as the rest of you, but we truly need to discuss Captain Pike's very loud expression which I think is just... saying so much here.
Your art is beautiful because it contains your heart and effort and that makes it wonderful

"dont die" is my favorite thing to tell people when they say theyre gonna go do something. going to the store? dont die. going to the bathroom? don't die. going to Mars? don't die. going to write an email? don't die. driving to the gas station? don't die. it fits every situation except for maybe a funeral visitation because then i think thatd be a little bit rude
