can we send up a quick thank you to pdf uploaders, torrent seeders, copy sharers, scanlators, fansubbers, digitizers, paywall dodgers, and various other internet archivers for making niche art and information more accessible in a media landscape where all but the most profitable mainstream are often tossed aside and left to rot

i wish that americans and other people from first world countries would understand that for the rest of us only a small percentage of their media is available legally (and sometimes the price is twice or thrice as much as originally, because of the shipping), so piracy is the only way to consume it

No, 100% disagree. Stealing someone else’s work and distributing it is not okay. People put their time, hard work and creativity in their books, artwork etc and you’re stealing it. And I don’t mean just big tv studios or Hollywood movies. You’re taking from small creators, authors and artists and destroying their livelihood.

@dateamonster That’s a very different scenario, and you know that’s not what I meant. I wrote a book and published it as an indie author. It was and still is a lot of work to write and market it and I’d be gutted if people pirated it.

@wonderwhump yeah i know. its the scenario i was talking about in the post you replied to. but have no fear, i dont believe theres any meaningful overlap in the fans of niche, censored, and otherwise difficult to access media and your amazon publication. your ninety nine cents are safe.

having a lot of feelings tonight time to eat a ridiculous amount of cookies and watch the 2002 carrie remake

see you on the other side

the unique torment of having seen something really cool you want to talk to people about but its an original play running for like a week and a half out of a tiny local theatre so theres no way to rly like point people in its direction. like hey have you heard of this? its a single perfect dew drop on a blade of grass. yeah i saw it a few hours ago coming up from between the cracks in the sidewalk outside my apartment. go and give it a watch if you get the chance.

i intend to try and stay politically conscious at a local and global level with at least the same level of commitment as ive done so far but i dont think i actually want to hear about what the us presidents doing anymore

off topic but an actual furry (and a youtuber i happen to like quite a bit) made a 45 minute video about the guy who ""infiltrated"" the furry community i hope he tears that bitch to shreds

its not reusing ocs its expanding the Dateamonster Cinematic Universe

the ongoing transmisogyny situation on this website is becoming something that would be almost comical if it wasnt you know genuinely impacting the lives of marginalized people. ive been using tumblr for over a decade and i dont think ive ever seen this level of cartoonish incompetence and thin-skinned behavior from staff members much less the fucking ceo. get a fucking grip guys.

one of like the top three goofiest ways for sure i deal with like. that weird little nagging voice of cisheteropatriarchy in the back of my brain telling me nobody will take me seriously as a butch if i keep collecting dolls and other cutesy shit is i imagine im posing on the cover of some fan translated cult classic yuri manga wearing like a graphic tee and board shorts and holding up a draculaura doll under a title thats like The Masculine Type Is A Secret Lover Of Cute Things ♀️⁉️

gonna get baked and eat chinese food and draw my ocs merry crisis everyone have fun go make the yuletide trans or whatever

making a playlist of songs that make me feel cutie sillay and i look up and its at like 50 songs
