my phone is only allowed to send me notifications if it's:

  • a human attempting to contact me

  • weather

and only allowed make a sound if

  • i'm watching a YouTube video

  • i'm expecting a call

then i get into my mum's car and her phone connected to Bluetooth reads out her spam email through the car speakers- 😐

yea me too, but i suppose in a world with as many variables as ours it's hard to find "rules" to cling on, so it's a collective cope for that particular quirk of life lol

as much as i believe languages are living tools, cannot be constrained by rules, and will evolve no matter how much old timers complain

if you tell me about a "venomous mushroom" I'll freak out at the possibility of such a being existing faster than you can explain how you don't really see a reason for the distinction between venomous and poisonous and that other languages don't even have it

you can permanently prettify it and sell all your stuff at the uh, forgot the name, but the one stand trader that accepts everything and has its own deck to make the booty transfer faster! (though idk if it's still exclusive to captained ships? i haven't played in a while)

exceptions prove the rule!

RIP ship captain's pockets

(unless you're long past playing for the gold or you're sailing an uncaptained one)

for a sample of such madness please try arguing with someone about a topic you're very familiar with, and they clearly know fuck all about but refuse to learn or listen to anybody but themselves and their echo chamber!

there's also been something about cats from Ohio? I have no idea what that is about

seagulls are spirits of mischief and chaos, i'm pretty sure they'd intentionally fuck with the data

that line sure is making it so the production company gets 95% of the profits.

Well, they're negligible enough that the fact they exist wasn't covered anywhere during my filmmaking degree, and i took all the extra business/law modules :')

And it was just the writers & actors right? What about all the editors, audio mixers, audio recorders, camera men, gaffers? riggers, vfx people, script supervisors, storyboard artists, props & costumes department, even runners! There's just so much work to be done by so many people to bring a script to life, and we're yet to hear of an editor/camera op/runner who lucked out by being a part of an accidentally famous billion dollar film and then never had to work again. Apart from producers, directors, actors, and writers sometimes - everyone's work, though essential for audio visual media to exist, is rarely rewarded with a share of the profits it makes

Nebula has been slowly surpassing just "rebranded youtube content" so to speak. They've started financing films and plays like for Abigail Thorn, and they're still true to their founding ethos. It's no longer just higher quality youtube content, and i do hope to see them one day become more widely known and popular
