Chaotic Stupid

*makes this noise at you*

tumblr in 2020:

• posts on your dashboard are ranked by how much the ceo personally likes them
• a widget on everyone’s blogs that publically displays their top five search terms
• images disabled altogether
• they ban you if you have a custom theme
• app crashes at a speed imperceptible to the human eye
• you can buy little outfits for the “t” logo with real money

It’s called “environmental amnesia” and it’s an actual issue environmentalists discuss how to combat. The climate crisis makes it more widespread but it’s been something that’s happening for generations. The story of The Lorax describes it beautifully. The idea that what you remember is what you consider normal, but if the changes happen slowly over generations, you don’t see how large they are because you don’t personally remember them being very different, even if you were told stories about it.

climate grief is also a thing.

CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it's part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions

if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators

THEY ARE TRYING!!!!! SIGN THE PETITION TO GET THE DISNEY ANIMATORS' UNION RECOGNIZED

this petition is from IATSE (union), btw! it actually has credibility, unlike most change.org/etc petitions! please sign it!!

Do your part to support japanese artists on tumblr by following the らくがき (doodle) tag so you see newly uploaded pieces of art that often get 0-5 notes at best

Nice!

Also rkgk (english style abbreviation of rakugaki (doodle)), thanks to @lycocarpum and @solarpoolsystem!
And イラスト (illust[ration]), thanks to @bones-airstrike!

Skimming through those tags, I also saw a fair amount of activity under オリジナル (original), and 創作 (creation).

i think kids online should really get back to making internetsonas instead of whatever fuckshit this is with putting their entire real faces, names, ages, and such everywhere. you're not gonna realize how nice internet privacy is until you dont have it anymore and no chance at getting it back. make up a guy and a name and just be that online. make up conflicting details about your completely made up backstory. make a fursona or something
