  • Definitely not. There's a whole genre of music that's created for riding the coattails of popular songs. They wait for a song title by artists like Taylor Swift to be announced and then release their own songs with the same title. Sometimes they're actually good, like this dude:

  • The latter, but I also don't really mind paywalls in the form of "get early access" like SMBC comics or "get exclusive special content" like a lot of bands do.

    You can just straight paywall with those too, but you don't have too. A band I like crowdfunded a music video and you can watch it free on youtube, but if you didn't crowdfund it you missed out on perks that go all the way up to being in the music video

  • Which scene in a movie/series do you think didn't make any sense to the plot ?

  • The trilogy would've been much better if either director had done all 3. Either J.J. Abrams with a fun nostalgic return to form, or Rian Johnson with a fresh new take. The whiplash from them fighting with each other over the direction of the plot just ended up being a huge mess. I'm pretty surprised they weren't just told what the plot was going to be, kind of seems like a screwup by whoever handled that.

  • False dichotomy, I'd rather see other funding models like Patreon/Kickstarter. Paying gets you early access/bonus stuff/whatever, and you don't need intrusive technologies like ads/paywalls.

  • If you could, how would you deprogram an extreme liberal?

  • How are you defining "far extreme liberal"?

  • On a related note, I think libraries do need a bit of a facelift, and not just be "the place where books live". It's important to keep that function, but also expand to "a place where learning happens". I know lots of libraries are doing this sort of thing, but your average person is probably still stuck in the "place where books live" mindset, as you allude. I'm talking stuff like 3D printers, makerspaces, diybio, classes about detecting internet bullshit, etc.

  • Threads like this, with highly upvoted comments like

    americans are more propagandized than they think citizens of the DPRK are

    They also use sarcasm try to push the narrative that North Korea is actually just fine, OK?

    Guys you don't understand; the West has spoken; we MUST hate North Korea, our governments have already decreed it so.

    Many of them are also seemingly physically incapable of communicating without hexbear's custom reaction images, which is a weird behavior common to many cults. Makes it harder to communicate with the outgroup.

    I think LW is defederated from them (or vice versa) so you can't post over there, but for further examples, try making an account over there and saying that maybe, just maybe, Putin did a bad thing by invading Ukraine, and they're defending an imperialist.

  • Where can I post a short story and get some serious review?

    Jump

  • I think !shortstories@literature.cafe would be a good place for it. The community sidebar says your own stories are welcome. You might want to add that you're specifically looking for feedback
