nerd: hey fellas, i hear alot of calls for abolishing police. but how will we stay safe?

buff shirtless bald guy on laptop:
King, police abolition is not about defunding every department instantly. It's about a gradual process o strategically reallocating resources, funding and responsibility away from police and toward community based models of safety, support and prevention. The people who respond to crises in our community should be people who are best equipped to deal with those crisis.
insanely buff guy on couch with laptop:
Friend I want to echo that last statement and dig down a little further. Crime isn't random. Most off the time, it happens when someone has been unable to meet their basic needs through other means. By shifting money away from police and toward services that actually meet those needs, we'll be able to get to a place where we won't need to rob banks.

jacked dude in gray tee shirt at a desktop pc:
Couldn't have said it better myself, King! This is bigger than just police brutality; it's about how the prison industrial complex, the drug war, immigration law and the web of policy, law and culture that forms our criminal justice system has destroyed millions o lives, and torn apart families. Cops don't prevent crime, they cause it, through ongoing violent disruption of our communities.

You have no idea how badly I wanted to put him in the Communist Theory video, eating trash or something, but unfortunately he was pregnant at the time (yeah he's actually a female ig) so we didnt see much of him. Thought he might've died until he showed up to the porch with his new kids one night

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 13h

Oh and at the start I promise I didn't hit him, just a playful little bop, no different than you'd do to a cat or a small dog you were trying to play with, but he flinched and it made it sound harder than it was 🙏 if you hurt animals when you don't have to, you're scum and I hate you 🙏

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 13h

One day I *will* full-on pet him, but for now, as comfortable as he is being around us, and eating from our hands, or even trying to climb up on us when we have food, when there *isn't* food involved, he has absolutely no interest in us. Purely transactional relationship 🙄

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 13h

No cause it's been long enough that he knows we'd never hurt him, so he doesn't run away from us *at all*, but he's totally prepared to try and pull food away if we start moving to take it from him, so he's on guard, but not actually threatened. He's so fucking cute

Still, I think I've done some creative stuff with the use of color in the upcoming vid. Cool little visual metaphor stuff, even if the aesthetic of it all is well out of my comfort zone. Guess we'll just see what y'all think

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 14h

Bro my videos are pretty as hell wtf. I wanna shoot more stuff in b&w. ngl I kinda hate the color-theming of the vid Im working on now. Not that its bad or anything, but I was very deliberately trying to challenge myself with an aesthetic that Ive just never personally liked, and well, I still dont

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 14h

The second my brain kinda clicked on, I just looked around, heard the music I had playing, and thought "fuck, I need to keep creating" and took a random note.

Hoping we can make a DIY dolly for the camera in time for the next video's storyboard ☺️

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 14h

Funnily enough, as my time off was coming to a close, I smoked a little weed, and me and the fam had a candlelit night of chilling on the porch. If any cinematographers out there are struggling to find that *drive* to grab the camera and start shooting, try just hanging out in candlelight more often

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 14h

Basically took a Factorio/Scream Fortress vacation for a week, but now it's back to work. Sorry for the delay. I tend to convince myself that just working on a more laid-back video can *count* as a break, but no, it turns out I need actual breaks too if I'm gonna be making good stuff.

I've literally never had Chipotle. Suppose I'm only getting this notification because my location data has been sold, and I was filming there a bunch

saw this clip of the NYC mayor debate and i had tears in my eyes, perhaps the most insane section of any debate ever

Remember that time No Kings had to change their name to No Tyrants because they didn't wanna offend the British monarchy

Leadhead @leadhead.bsky.social · 2d

Sorry for the lack of video progress updates over the last few days. Some footage I was really counting on wound up being unusable because of audio stuff, and real life stuff lined up so that now was a rare chance to take a week mostly off. I'll be back to the grindstone soon tho 🙏

Dude flickstick is so cool. How awesome is it that I can do a flick like this on a gamepad? (Audios a lil out of sync)

The recent ICE raid which emptied an entire apartment building was apparently at the request of Wells Fargo, which is trying to foreclose on the building.

The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.

Just tasted salt that belonged to a rich man. Absurdly good. It's crazy how even the most minute details of their lives are so far removed from those of normal people.

Bro the way we fetishize bourgeois minds in this country is so pathetic. Folding Ideas put it well: we're all taught that if we're good people, we'll succeed in life, so logically, that means that successful people are the *best* people.

Luckily, I've already got a bit of Linux experience thanks to steamdeck, but yeah it's a learning curve I'm really not looking forward to, ngl
