people who discover a fic and leave a comment on every chapter as they read it are the unsung heroes of our era.

"Loki and Mobius really did become the bromance we didn't all know we needed."

"We saw this very barbed dialogue and we were like I don't know, that doesn't really feel like vulnerability to us and that kind of thing. And you or Kevin said like 'Oh don't worry, they play it with so much love, you could make them savage and it doesn't matter.' And come to find out, it's totally true."

"You guys argue like good friends. Like you guys care about each other and there's such a chemistry when you sit down and do those scenes. It's like, yeah, put as much conflict in there as possible and they'll just make it fun."

Streaming Content for Cult Fandom

So I went poking around trying to find a free streaming source for Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell and stumbled on this YouTube account of a guy named Owen Davies who is remastering some series that are difficult to find streaming these days. His mission is charming:

Somehow, my channel seems to have turned into a project to remaster and preserve pre-HD media (films, TV shows, miniseries, etc.). I hope you enjoy what's here. [...] I don't monetise my channel or any of its content. It wouldn't be right to do so, since most of it is original work by industry professionals that I've just attempted to clean up and polish with a modern HD/4K shine. YouTube is my hobby, not my source of income. If you run across any ads on my content, I assure you they've been put in place by the legal rights holders in order to gather revenue - which is what allows me to legally make most of this content public :^)

If you need a free, easy way to stream the following shows, he has them in lovely organized playlists ready to go:

Stephen King's Rose Red (2002)

The Nightmare Worlds of H.G. Wells (2016)

Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell (2015)

The 10th Kingdom (2000)

Dead Like Me (2003)

Farscape (1999)

Merlin (1998)

Jim Henson's The Storyteller (1988)

Roar (1997)

...and lots more! A lot of "cult" TV content that has been kicked to the curb by its original streaming providers, or is only available in specific countries. In an age when digital content is just disappearing because CEOs consider it too expensive to bother retaining, it's really cool to see someone doing restoration work that also makes things available to the public for free.

ETA: I know there's debate around losing the "grittiness" of old media and whether 4k restoration removes that magic. I get that debate! For me, this is more about preserving content that is disappearing/hard to access. Okay, enjoy the show!

my favourite bit of pop culture trivia is that Natalie Holt (composer of the Loki TV soundtrack) threw eggs at Simon Cowell that one time

and she's so proud to hit him not just once but TWICE

bonus: This is the only correct way to respond - propose marriage on the spot (i don't know what I would do if Noel Fielding proposed to me, pass out probably)

Soo I just got blocked by someone extremely upset by my demon king fic AI cover, and while it is entirely their decision and not my business whatsoever, I cannot help but marvel at the misguided sense of justice a significant percentage of Tumblr seems to display.

AI being used for downright vile, perverted content that should be reported and chased down? 😴

People reposting art without permission or credit? 😴

People selling AI art and/or advertising it as their own handmade work? 😴

Big companies using AI art instead of paying their employees and should be called out? 😴

Hobby writer who posts in their free time just included a cropped, minimalist AI image as their divider? 😡 Gross! Outrageous! This is what the world has come to! These occasional bloggers should be commissioning elaborate oil paintings for each and every drabble they post, otherwise they promote the demise of authentic creativity!

Bocchi the rock, Hiroi, while a great character on her own also serves an incredibly important role of redirecting most of the lewd fanart onto herself instead of Bocchi or the rest of the members of Kessoku Band.

So (😭)...I've gone and watched Motaz's farewell video a dozen times already. Had to share a few of the moments that really got me. Seeing him surrounded by his loving friends and still smiling despite it all made me so happy. He deserves it, to be safe and happy. They all do ❤

Jury nullification is back and more important than ever

Jury nullification is allowed, but few know about this legal process because courts don’t tell juries they have this power. Merely mentioning it in court could lead to a mistrial.

Jury nullification, where juries look the other way when someone breaks a law they find unjust, can help a defendant land an acquittal. That get-out-of-jail-free card has been all but disappearing from courtrooms.

Defense attorneys want it back and some say the rise in laws criminalizing abortions or continued criminalization of marijuana — or other drug laws — could make the technique more prominent in the future.

But the rare legal maneuver rarely popped up until The U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. There is great potential for it to be something with broader applications.

If jury nullification regains prominence, it will be a long and unlikely path back to courtrooms because juries are rarely told they have this power. The Kansas Supreme Court (and courts in many other states) ruled there is no right to nullification and therefore no reason for judges to tell juries they can use this. But even as it railed against the process, the state’s high court said juries have the power to overlook the law.

There is no law against a jury ignoring bad laws. Jury nullification is a valid tool for jury members to protest unjust laws.
