There's something extremely funny (and by that I mean sad) in the fact that, not only entertainment american productions are entirely directed by the old white men executives at the top of the companies and not the diverse, multicultural ensemble of people who worked hard on them, but that the execs actually are inconsistent about it.

This year is filled with perfect examples: you have Strange World this november, an animated movie with POC and lgbtq+ rep, happening in a freshly odd universe, and the execs went 'oh no a liberal movie let's do our best to sink it so people never talk about it and give the studios 0 marketing budget so that it looks like there's no audience for this movie, and we'll have a good reason to never make one ever again'.

And then on the other hand you have the tv series Severance that released in february which is a psychological thriller with mystery and a white main character so the execs went 'ooooh a large audience to market on' so they boosted it up. But what they didn't realize and frankly it's hilarious, is that Severance, in the same vibe than The Boys on Amazon Prime Video, is a show that mocks the system of its own production company. Severance mocks formatted dull work places and formatting and is produced by Apple. The Boys mocks rotten corporate means and is produced by Amazon.

So that MEANS that executives, who work in those shitty companies, and you would expect them to have at least a few brain cells since they are multi billion international companies, don't even check what a media is about if it looks from afar that they can market on it and make a lot of profit, but will stop right in its tracks a media that remotely looks like it's out of the mold.

TL;DR: Executives from the world's biggest entertainment companies not only have trash opinion, but they don't even do they job correctly on stuff they approve.

Roosterteeth

I'm going to rant about big companies swallowing smaller ones so bear with me. Something that's not always talked about when it comes to selling a company is that it's not necessarily about greed. Sometimes inflation and a changing marketplace fucks your bottom line so you're left with the option of "restructuring" (read: firing) or you take an influx of cash and accept a loss of control. Something that Barbara Dunkelman said on Reddit was that RTX isn't profitable and most of their animation isn't profitable either. Not to defend WB, but RT would have gone under a long time ago without outside support. It's sad to see things go from 2015 Burnie saying they're competing with HBO and Netflix to now, 9 years later, RT going the way of the Blockbuster. I just wish that things went differently. It's a bit like that one comic of a guy in a spacesuit that eats more and more of him to keep walking until there's nothing left of him. In this analogy, RT is the guy and WB is the suit, taking more and more until there's nothing left.

A WHOLE lot of emotions below the cut

I'm not AT ALL qualified to talk about any of the controversies, specifically over the last 4 years. I'm also not qualified to talk about companies being bought, but I have a decent knowledge base so I tried anyways.

I have likely spent several weeks worth of hours on RT content, I've gone to Comic Cons just to meet people in person, I have so many shirts (that have aged SO poorly (seriously, if there's ever a collector of RH memorabilia/someone who wants to burn it, send the info my way because I'd ship the tshirts free of charge)). The first person I came out to, I started talking to because she had an X-ray and Vav tshirt on in 2014. My first high school and first college relationships both were with people I bonded with over Roosterteeth, and I haven't talked to any of the above people in years.

It hurts to watch something you cared about fall apart. Regardless, I'll end this with

they should invent shorts that fit people who have bodies

#i am so unbelievably tired of wearing a bowl around my waist.#we need to completely overhaul how pant sizes are determined i cannot believe how impossible it is to find anything that actually fits #clothing companies are like you may have a pant that is big enough for your legs OR small enough for your waist. but not both. never both

Ashley's Rant of Train Derailments

Ashley is pretty fed up with all the train derailments. You know why they are happening? Profit over people! We need to stop putting up with this and actually take a stand.

people are acting like we’re saying creators shouldn’t be paid for their work; they absolutely should. and watcher already is. they have a patreon, they get sponsors, their videos regularly get millions of views which gives them ad revenue, they sell merch; they are getting paid. feeling indignant and disappointed that they’re asking us to pay for content we were already getting for free isn’t entitlement, it’s expected. they wanted to make bigger produced shows and now their budget can’t sustain it, that’s not on the viewer to make up for

#im not going to feel as sorry for the company as iam for an artist working out of their bedroom #they went too big and now expect us to make up for it #its normal to feel slighted by that #im not paying over a hundred dollars a year for a guy to eat food another to walk around a house and a puppet to tell a story #im just not #their shows are entertaining theres no doubt about that but can you really say its worth that fee when we are in a cost of living crisis #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #watcher #watcher tv #shane madej #ryan bergara #steven lim #hey there demons it’s me ya boy #ghoul boys

A short list of unity games owned by notoriously lawsuit happy companies:

Hearthstone, Activision Blizzard

Pokemon Go, Niantic and more specifically the Pokemon Company

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, see above

Like 17 different mobile and console Disney games

Genshin Impact, miHoYo

Magic Arena, WotC and their big daddy Hasbro

Mario Kart Tour, Nintendo

The Elder Scrolls: Legends, Bethesda

Super Mario Run, Nintendo

Call of Duty Mobile, Activision Blizzard

Unity was used to render backgrounds for a number of the modern "Live Action" Disney remakes. Notably The Lion King remake in 2019 has been confirmed to have used unity.

In short. They. Are. FUCKED

100,000 dollars is not a lot of money.

it is also a lot more money than i will ever have. my student loans make up half of that - they're coming back, i'm told, like we all bounced back recently. the other day while paying for gas to go to work, i overdrew my account without knowing it.

i sat in the car and looked at the charge and tried to do the math. where the fuck is the money even going? i don't live extravagantly. i live in a hole in the ground, in an apartment the size of a sneeze; covered in ants. yes, i wanted to live close to a population center. maybe that's my fault. i've downloaded the apps and i've spoken to the experts and i've cut back on excess. i can't help the pharmacy bills or the medical debt.

i have a good, well-paying job. when i googled it to see if i was getting a fair salary, i found out i'd be making "upper middle class" money. which doesn't make sense - is "upper middle class" now just "able to afford a one-bedroom without a roommate". when i was younger, upper-middle meant a nice big house and a backyard and vacations and not flinching about eating at a resturant.

i was talking to my friend who is a realtor. he said 100,000 dollars is extremely cheap for housing. he's not wrong. 100,000 dollars would change my life. 100,000 dollars also won't really buy you anything. it could get you out of debt, potentially, if you were lucky and had a certain amount of scholarships to tack onto your degree. you could pay off the car and then have enough left over for "spending" money. how fucking amazing. one vacation, maybe two if you're thrifty. and then - like magic - the money would evaporate into nothing. people would sigh and tell you see, you should have put it into savings! like "upper middle class" people can't afford to value "actually living" over squirrelling wealth. you should spend your life only in scarcity. like that is what made the rich people all their real "actually a lot of money".

100,000 dollars would literally set me free. it also would just set me back to "earning normally" instead of paying down debt into infinity. god, do you know how many of us just want that? that our first thought is we could stop scrambling and just be free of debt if we won the lottery? that we don't even necessarily need to stop working - we just wouldn't have to worry about failing or falling?

and. at the same time. 100,000 dollars is next to fucking nothing.

#writeblr #me paying my taxes this year:#haha good to know im literally doing more for my community out of my tiny apartment #than most corporations will do in their entire scope! :) these motherfuckers will NEVER pay taxes!!!#bc they lobby others to be sure we CHOKE :) !!!#i hope this is clear like. this isn't someone being like ''haha if i got 100k it wouldn't be a big deal''#it's more like. the gap between corporations and the ppl WORKING in those corporations #has become HORRIFIC. 100k to the company i work for is like. pocket change to them.#and it is LIFE CHANGING for me.#they could cut me a check for 100k tomorrow and not even budge their margin of error
