crazy how you can be hanging on by a thread for like four months. Or your entire life
People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.
For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.
The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.
So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.
the trolley problem vs. systemic oppression: a comic.
this is a genuine question and not me being snarky or anything, but what's with the aversion to dick grayson's ass? when i was new to the fandom, i just sort of assumed it was a joke that he's got a great ass, but i've seen a few things lately that make it seem like it wasn't alright to say those things? i'm out of the loop and you seem to know what's up lol
So it’s like.... it’s complicated.
Dick having a nice ass isn’t necessarily a bad thing to joke about as fans in moderation, but the problem is that in the actual comics there are multiple instances of other characters commenting on his ass and body in general with him very clearly expressing discomfort over it, and it usually gets treated like a joke.
(Trinity (2008) #10)
(New Teen Titans #56)
There’s so many more instances throughout his history but those are a few I had on hand. Not only that, but this paired with the fact that he has been raped twice in canon, just makes it very uncomfortable when DC oversexualizes him as some kind of marketing thing to try to appeal to a female audience, and usually when they do it’s by putting more ass focus/jokes/commentary into stuff. So it can just get kinda... tiring.
If they’re not going to treat the sexual harassment he’s faced in the comics they publish seriously, then they have no right to joke about him like that, ya know? But again, when fans comment/joke about it it’s... very different than when DC does it.
Like, there is nothing wrong with considering Dick Grayson to be a sexy character, or to have a nice ass or something like that, and it’s not even like it’s bad to talk about it! He is sexy! But we as fans should be critical of how this subject gets portrayed in the comics because it’s very often that he is being sexualized by others in ways he expresses discomfort over. Usually it feels like when people are saying to stop making jokes about Dick’s ass it comes more from a place of being frustrated by DC doing this rather than like... some other fan making a shitpost about it being the root of the problem
This is a pretty good post talking about the Grayson comic specifically that kinda goes into some talk about the difference between a character being Sex-positive vs being Sexualized.
Sorvus meme compilation cause they are so funny to me
absolutely disgusting that i have to create the the things i want to create
i really do think eyebags are gorgeous btw. they're like the wings of an unwanted and unloved but strangely beautiful angel named insomnia.
by far the funniest thing about reading fanfiction as a political professional is that I can always tell exactly who has and hasn't been to a fundraiser or gala based on how they write them
