#Sony Connected

[aka-indulgence]

Let me tell you if you wanna buy wireless earbuds/phones/headphones, get JBL and not sony because sony will force you to sign up to them and download an app to use them, while you can connect to jbl earphones as soon as you get them so

I know where my loyalties lie,

P.S. It might be a technical problem but still, it wouldn’t be a problem if you can just click connect on the settings without having to go through an app

#aka vent #i know its a very Nothing problem but #it wont connect to anything its useless #the app is being wonky #rhgrjrehrhj #AAGRHGRHRGA #i hate sony earphones now #the sound is ok actually #but the app is unbearable #HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CONENCT TO DEVICES WITH BLUETOOTH #BUT NO APPSTORE #SONYYYYY

Just saw a tweet about someone saying their Leon x Merchant vid got disabled by Sony because Sony thought it was actual footage from Death Island...and the video was just Leon and Merchant having a full on make out session...spit connected and everything...

Which means...

Leon x Merchant is canon !!

#leon kennedy #re4 merchant #resident evil #resident evil 4 #resident evil 4 remake #resident evil death island #that's so funny #Sony really said NO ! #THAT'S REAL FOOTAGE !! #I can't stop thinking about the spit connection #that was too realistic

Marinette’s friends and connections

It has occurred to me just how many of Marinette’s classmates have prestigious family.

To get the obvious ones out of the way:

Adrien: Gabriel Agreste, fashion designer; Émilie, ex-nobility (she gave up her title) and actress

Chloe (and Zoe): Mayor, Andre Bourgeois; Audrey is a renowned fashion critique

Juleka (and Luka): Jagged Stone (even though they didn’t know it most of their lives)

But there’s a surprising amount of others with pretty high-up positions:

Alya: mom is head chef at a very famous hotel (owned by the Mayor himself) and was even a judge on that chef competition next to a TV host and a literal rockstar; dad owns the zoo (I think, he at least runs it)

Mylène: dad is a famous mime (famous enough to get his face plastered all over Paris for his show)

Sabrina: her dad isn’t just a regular cop, he’s the chief cop

Lila: her mom is an ambassador (yes, I’m including her, I think this one is actually true, seeing as her mom was actually on screen that one time)

Max: mom operates the StarTrain, then becomes and astronaut and almost immediately tests a new AI in space (idk how she got through training that fast)

Alix: her dad runs the freaking Louvre

That’s nine (9) students! Out of 15 in the class! That’s more than half the students with at least one parent in a prestigious position.

AND, this includes herself!

Yeah, her parents are bakers, and they only really get famous-level popular after Marinette gets them endorsements from Ladybug and Jagged Stone, but remember: her uncle (great uncle?) is a famous chef in China! He literally owns a world-renowned restaurant in Shang Hai! And even if he’s not super commonly known in France, it’s still well-enough that he was invited to be a major chef competition at the Mayor’s hotel! Also, her grandma (dad’s side) apparently has enough money to just spend years traveling and buy her a motorized scooter on a whim. So, there’s also that.

Non-classroom honorable mentions:

- Kagami: mom and Tsurugi tech

- Manon: mom is the host of almost every news show it seems

- Aurore: kids tv weather girl (she’s shown to be friends with her briefly in s3)

“Normal girl with a normal life” my butt, Marinette!

#“A girl just like the others” #BITCH WHO #does everyone in Paris know loads of famous people?? #I’ve got some connections through family too (like aunt at Sony) and got to meet some famous people #but that doesn’t mean I just have buckets of famous or rich friends #I get it’s a kids show #but COME ON #if you say she’s like everyone else then *let her be like everyone else* #who can even relate to this girl #I didnt even touch on how many famous people just immediately love her #miraculous #mlb #miraculous ladybug #marinette #marinette dupain cheng #Mary sue dupain cheng #yes I’m saying it #sue me #not really salt #was meant to be funny #but it made me think again about just how much the writers just hand things to her

"Biopics of massively famous musicians are rarely very good, often because they stumble at the question of whom exactly they’re being made for. Are you making a movie for the already initiated die-hard fans yearning to see the life and times of their hero reflected back at them in exacting detail? Or is your movie a welcome mat for novices, a breezy jukebox of greatest hits aimed at cultivating new generations of fans, goosing streaming tallies and catalog sales in the process? Most musician biopics never manage to resolve this tension, in part because they’re usually also serving a third master, namely the musician’s estate, which tends to hold its own, very specific ideas about on-screen depiction.

Bob Marley: One Love, the new movie about the late reggae superstar that’s produced by Marley’s widow, Rita, along with some of his children, is a biopic that does seem to know whom it’s for, which isn’t a point in its favor. The film is directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green (King Richard) and stars Kingsley Ben-Adir as Marley, who does his best with the role despite not really looking or sounding much like the real Marley. (Within the past four years Ben-Adir has played Malcolm X, Barack Obama, and Bob Marley, quite the triptych of historical figures.) Lashana Lynch plays Rita and steals the film in every scene she’s in, even if the movie’s script fails to elevate her character past the archetypical suffering-yet-supportive wife of a genius.

Rather than taking a cradle-to-grave approach to Marley’s life, One Love instead focuses on a single period of Marley’s career, his self-imposed exile to England in the aftermath of the 1976 attempt on his life at his home in Kingston, during which time he recorded Exodus, the 1977 LP that marked his full breakthrough into global superstardom. The film opens with the assassination attempt, after which we’re quickly whisked to London, where the film depicts Marley writing most of Exodus’ songs in a cloying series of “eureka!” moments that tend to populate movies of this kind. Snippets of Marley’s classic “Redemption Song” surface as a recurring musical motif in the film, and in one of the last scenes, we see Marley performing the song for his awestruck family in a sappy flourish that’s also anachronistic. (By most accounts, Marley didn’t write “Redemption Song” until 1979.) Periodically we’re treated to a series of flashbacks of the singer’s earlier life, a clichéd device that this movie could have used more of: Brief forays into Marley’s conversion to Rastafarianism are surprisingly well done, and a scene of a teenage Marley and the Wailing Wailers performing “Simmer Down” at Coxsone Dodd’s Studio One is the best moment in the film.

One Love is an inspirational tale about a Great Man who used music to unite the world, one that reduces one of the most consequential and complicated artists of the 20th century to a walking fount of genial aphorisms, the guy who suggested we all get together and feel all right. As such, the film indulges a decadeslong public appetite for a particular imagining of Marley that his estate now seems depressingly eager to feed. It’s been 42 years since Marley died of a rare form of melanoma at age 36, and I’m not sure there’s a musician who’s more literally iconic: Go to any commercial district in any part of the world and within minutes you’ll find an opportunity to buy something bearing Marley’s likeness. In the United States, Marley has been a staple of dorm-room walls for generations: The casual and underinformed co-optation of Marley by American bro culture has even inspired a recurring meme in which Marley’s name is erroneously affixed to an image of Jimi Hendrix.

To a certain brand of musical cynic, Marley has become the embodiment of a musician whom people own posters and T-shirts of but don’t actually listen to, which isn’t totally fair to most of the owners of those posters and T-shirts. Some of Marley’s music is still enormously popular: His 1984 greatest hits compilation Legend is currently enjoying its 820th week on the Billboard 200, a position it will likely maintain for the foreseeable future given One Love’s early, strikingly robust box-office projections. The only album that’s spent longer on the chart is Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon.

But in the pop-cultural imagination, Legend has completely eclipsed everything else Marley ever released. The album has sold more than 15 million copies in the United States alone, while no other Marley LP has sold even 1 million stateside. From a purely mathematical standpoint, this would indicate that for many fans, Legend is the first and only Marley album they’ll ever listen to. I’m not sure there’s another greatest hits compilation that has played such an outsize role in the public definition of an artist.

Legend is a fine little collection, but the idea that it’s some sort of one-stop synopsis of Marley’s career is absurd. For starters, 10 of its 14 tracks date from the period of 1977–80, a four-year time frame that represents the height of Marley’s global popularity but is a relatively minuscule cross section of a staggeringly prolific, nearly two-decade-long recording career. (Five of Exodus’ 10 tracks are included on Legend, which I suspect is one reason that One Love is so invested in the album’s significance.)

This period also coincides with a time when Marley’s music seemed to take a step back from revolutionary politics, a tack that may have been driven at least in part by the aforementioned assassination attempt. The Marley canonized on Legend is not the Marley who sang “I feel like bombin’ a church/ Now that you know that the preacher is lyin’ ” or who called for “burnin’ and a-lootin’ tonight … burnin’ all illusion tonight” or declared that “Rasta don’t work for no CIA.” The dominance of Legend in the U.S. is particularly striking when one considers that Marley’s highest-selling album in this country during his lifetime was 1976’s Rastaman Vibration, which peaked at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 and includes such overtly political tracks as “Crazy Baldhead,” “Rat Race,” and “War.” Legend doesn’t include a single track from Rastaman Vibration, instead opting for romantic fare like “Is This Love” and “Waiting in Vain” and feel-good anthems like “One Love/People Get Ready” and “Jamming.” (For an excellent deep dive into the history and legacy of Legend, I recommend this article from the Ringer earlier this week.)

One Day’s Director Has No Regrets About the Movie’s Controversial Ending

Legend’s preeminence has helped turn Marley into the musical equivalent of a tourist destination, at which One Love is just one more cozy attraction. This is worse than a shame, because the real Bob Marley was one of the most remarkable musical talents of the 20th century. As a songwriter, he was so prolific that music seemed to pour out of him, a quality that has sometimes led to a naturalization of his gifts that veers into exoticizing primitivism. (One Love certainly partakes in this.) But rather than being some carefree savant, Marley was a fiercely disciplined and ambitious artist from the very beginning. He wrote and recorded his first single, “Judge Not,” in 1962 at the age of 16, and it remains an astonishing debut, an effortlessly catchy melody sung by a voice that sounds both nervous and supremely confident in a way that only a teenager can manage.

By the time he signed to Island Records in 1972 and began his ascent to international superstardom, Marley had already written a lifetime’s worth of great songs. He had a preternatural ear for hooks and crafted songs that were ready-made hit records, three-minute gems of perfectly crystalized musical ideas. As a singer, his indelible tenor rasp and thrillingly improvisational style were the byproducts of an extraordinarily well-honed sense of intonation and time. And during the 1970s, he fronted what might have been the best band on the face of the earth, grounded in the peerless rhythm section of drummer Carlton Barrett and bassist Aston “Family Man” Barrett, the latter of whom died earlier this month at age 77. (Aston’s son and namesake, an accomplished musician in his own right, plays his father in the film.)

One Love doesn’t know how to begin exploring this artist and his art in any way that even begins to be interesting. Instead it just feeds back the same sanitized and saccharine idea of Bob Marley to the same audience who has been eating that up for generations. It’s a movie about a poster. Over the end credits of One Love, archival performance clips of Marley flash onto the screen, and for a few moments we’re treated to sounds and images that are infinitely more magnetic and thrillingly alive than anything we’ve seen over the preceding 100-ish minutes. That Bob Marley, and the extraordinary body of music he left behind, is still out there for those who go listening for it, but this movie isn’t where you’ll find him."

I'm in awe of Louis Tomlinson❤️

Louis was so authentic yesterday, i mean, he could've changed the setlist, or his outfits, or his hair, and so many more things for 100k mostly(expected) mainstream people, but BUT this boy did everything the way he did on tour

I'm so excited to see what this year has in store for louis, his way with us is so pure and i only hope more people see him in the way he has to be seen(there is an explicit way to love louis)

My heart his so full at the moment and its not only pride,its like this right here is our history moment, the moment louis will experience and create something so much bigger than he ever dreamed of

He doesn't know me, i know that, but i will forever pay and pray for him, because that boy was so

#thoughts #In awe #louis tomlinson #faith in the future #music #i love him #today a little bit more #festival era louis #tank top louis #i mean he is so hot and so sexy #but #He is talented and showed it #He was confident on a new Level #his voice #that was thick #He entertaine ALONE 100k people #that is scary when you think about it #and what he can do now with that confidence and connection #the connection in the industry on that Level... #fuck you simon and sony and bbc

I finished SoNY and hmmmm Arturo brainwashing Mel and turning her into his personal assassin that he keeps a secret from everyone, and she was the one directly responsible for Callihan’s death :)

#vtm #sony #melisanne #thomas arturo #he keeps her in the basement and brings her out when he needs someone killed with absolutely no connections #and he's the only one who knows about it #probably replaces adelaide with her once her mind is completely broken and she's been morphed into a killing machine #...oh god it'd kill d'angelo to see her like that

There is a technology glitch that I have been trying to resolve for almost a goddamn year and every few weeks I decide today is gonna be the day I solve it, and it never is. It’s not even that important! There is just! No reason it should be happening! I have talked to all three manufacturers involved and received, respectively ‘idk what you’re talking about but surely the problem cannot be with our product, please rate our customer service!’, ‘I cannot recreate this bug and I don’t know what to tell you but if you want to demonstrate it over the phone I can....... hear you demonstrate it over the phone, will moral support help?’, and ‘we have no fucking clue why this is happening and we suspect the problem is you but also we will look into it and get back to you if we ever find anything’. Anyway all this to say if you ever want a simultaneously facinating and deeply boring read, generate a bug report on your phone and go through the 45 MB text document line by line.

#blablabla textpost #trying to connect an old braille display to my phone which should be an extremely simple process #I love Sony phones but goddamn does their customer service suck

If you notice, the chart above shows a gender gap of 20-21 points in reviews between men and women. Ignore these pathetic shit stains, sent by Warner Bros Discovery, Apple, IAC and the rest of their dirty pals. Go see The Marvels and have a kickass time.

It's becoming clearer everyday that Rotten Tomatoes has a bias against diverse films in general and the Disney Company in particular. It's a slap in the face to millions of Disney fans around the world, to continue putting up with this. Studios have no business using it. Hollywood magazines have no business using it and if I KNEW where to send the petition to tell whomever that they can shove Rotten Tomatoes up their arse, I'd start one.
