This quote is rich and verbatim confirms that Iger and Disney literally don’t see artists as creatives or creators.
= Hollipod SUBSCRIBE "We are not including name and likeness, nor are we including character voices. So in reality, this does not in any way represent a threat to the creators at all" Iger continued. "In fact, the opposite. I think it honors them and respects them, in part because there's a license fee associated with it. The other thing it does is it enables us to be comfortable that open Al is putting guardrails essentially around how these are used."

On 12/18, the storage unit my girlfriend and I packed our whole lives into last year will be auctioned off. I’m trying to prevent that from happening. I’ve made a Spotfund and outlined the situation there. If you have a moment, please read and share the link below.

Fucking incredible dystopian shit, comparing super rich people risking millions if not billions of lives just to make more money to people that risked their life actually building incredible things that would then make millions of dollars for super rich people.

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

Our modern subscription hellhole is aggressively anti-ownership and the kids know it
Declan says the main selling point of DVDs is the cases While some people scroll endlessly through Netflix in search of their next watch, 17-year- old Declan prefers the more traditional approach of having a DVD in his hands. He grew up surrounded by his gran's collection and later bought his own after visiting a shop with a friend. "The main selling point for me is the cases," he says. "There's something about really clean cases that I love." Streaming services like Netflix and Disney+ dominate the market but Declan says he values ownership. "It's nice to have something you own instead of paying for subscriptions all the time," he sayS. "If I lost access to streaming tomorrow, I'd still have my favourite movies ready to watch."

Joint Statement of the Acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery by Netflix.
The world’s largest streaming company swallowing one of its biggest competitors is what antitrust laws were designed to prevent. The outcome would eliminate jobs, push down wages, worsen conditions for all entertainment workers, raise prices for consumers, and reduce the volume and diversity of content for all viewers. Industry workers along with the public are already impacted by only a few powerful companies maintaining tight control over what consumers can watch on television, on streaming, and in theaters. This merger must be blocked.

I didn’t make enough in time and had to cover a day of the room at an increased rate to buy some time. I have until tomorrow but now I need $520 to cover everything. Anything helps. Thank you again to anyone who has donated or shared thus far.

Reposting this one more time. I have until the morning to raise $700 to keep our room. I’m sick and have no sick time and have to go to work tomorrow. I need to try to secure our lodging thru til I get paid next. Anything anyone can spare would be tremendously appreciated!

Reaching out for mutual aid to keep our room for the next week as well as some other expenses. Any dollar helps but sharing and reposting is also extremely beneficial. Really cannot overstate how grateful I am for all the support. I know how rough it is out there. Thank you!

Society is a construct. You can just ask someone to do a ska cover of Faith of the Heart and they'll say "$300 please" and you give it to them and then you have it.

Everyone, give

Love those classic Looney Tunes? Thrill and delight as Porky Pig is flattened between two sheets of glass!
A four panel comic with big letters at the top that say "love those classic looney tunes? Thrill and delight as Porky Pig is flattened between two sheets of glass!" We see porky pig. His body begins to bulge and deform. His body bulges further, the ink that makes up his colors begins to eject from ruptures in his outline. Porky pig is now reduced to a collection of blobs of color, his face sticking out of them, saying "at what level of abstraction do I stop being myself? Do I have a self? Do I persist as long as I am remembered? But then- can you really tell the difference between a memory and a dream?"

I’m reach out for mutual to pay for our room for the next week. I’ve got an insane stretch of work coming up and pretty desperately need to have lodging secured through it. We need to raise $800 by the end of the week. Any dollar helps but so does sharing this when you see it!

All the time, I think about Paul Westerberg’s obit for Alex Chilton archive.is/DNJf
HOW does one react to the death of one’s mentor? My mind instantly slammed down the inner trouble-door that guards against all thought, emotion, sadness. Survival mode. Rock guitar players are all dead men walking. It’s only a matter of time, I tell myself as I finger my calluses. Those who fail to click with the world and society at large find safe haven in music — to sing, write songs, create, perform. Each an active art in itself that offers no promise of success, let alone happiness. Yet success shone early on Alex Chilton, as the 16-year-old soulful singer of the hit-making Box Tops. Possessing more talent than necessary, he tired as a very young man of playing the game — touring, performing at state fairs, etc. So he returned home to Memphis. Focusing on his pop writing and his rock guitar skills, he formed the group Big Star with Chris Bell. Now he had creative control, and his versatility shone bright. Beautiful melodies, heart-wrenching lyrics: “I’m in Love with a Girl,” “September Gurls.” On Big Star’s masterpiece third album, Alex sang my favorite song of his, “Nighttime” — a haunting and gorgeous ballad that I will forever associate with my floor-sleeping days in New York. Strangely, the desperation in the line “I hate it here, get me out of here” made me, of all things, happy. He went on to produce more artistic, challenging records. One equipped with the take-it-or-leave-it — no, excuse me, with the take-it-like-I-make-it — title “Like Flies on Sherbert.” The man had a sense of humor, believe me. It was some years back, the last time I saw Alex Chilton. We miraculously bumped into each other one autumn evening in New York, he in a Memphis Minnie T-shirt, with take-out Thai, en route to his hotel. He invited me along to watch the World Series on TV, and I immediately discarded whatever flimsy obligation I may have had. We watched baseball, talked and laughed, especially about his current residence — he was living in, get this, a tent in Tennessee.

All That Heaven Allows (Dir. Douglas Sirk, 1955)/A Tale of Sorrow and Sadness (Dir. Seijun Suzuki, 1977)
The melancholy image of Cary Scott is captured in the reflection of her soon to be leaving children's gift of a television set in All That Heaven Allows (Dir. Douglas Sirk, 1955). The artificial image on a television set of Reiko and her brother at home is surrounded by flames in A Tale of Sorrow and Sadness (Dir. Seijun Suzuki, 1977).

what the actual fuck
A headline from the New York Times: Olivia Nuzzi Did It All For Love The article lede: By Jacob Bernstein Reporting from Los Angeles Nov. 14, 2025 Updated 12:07 p.m. ET Olivia Nuzzi loved him. She loved the politician, even though she was a political reporter and he was then a presidential candidate she had written about. She loved his eyes, "blue as the flame." She loved that "the sight of something as trivial as a rose" could move him to tears. She loved his insatiable appetites and his "particular complications and particular darkness." But she said "I love you" only after he said it first. He called her "Livvy" and wrote her poems. He said he wanted her to have his baby. He promised to take a bullet for her.
