So weโre in the middle of an organized boycott of Disney products because of their response to government pressure to take Jimmy Kimmel off the air. Great cool. Kimmelโs back on the air as I write this, so it looks like it might have worked. But honestly, who knows! Yay government overreach! In those exact… Continue reading Media Piracy Isn’t Inherently Revolutionary, You Weirdos

I Don’t Need to Tell You Censorship Laws are Bad, but Do You Realize How Bad They Really Are?
There was this trend of conversation on BookTok for a bit, but outside that I still occasionally see conversations about wanting a book rating system similar to the MPAA or ESRB.

To Support Queer Artists, You Actually Have to Know Who They Are

There were a lot of good-natured jokes about Dakenโs yassification on the cover and the nature of rainbow capitalism and how they pull these characters out once a year, then place them back on the shelves.… Continue reading To Support Queer Artists, You Actually Have to Know Who They Are
Media is More Fun When You Don’t Waste Time Hating It
