Piracy 🤝 Physical Media 🤝 Libraries
Physical media has two hands 😌
As Charles Stross said, we used to have a word for people who collected media and organized it and made it available to everyone for free. We called them "Librarians".
Pirates and Librarians and Archivists aren't different types of people, they're different sides of the same coin. Pirate if you have to, Archive if it's at risk, Library...ize? If you can.
okay the lack of a verb for "Library" slightly ruins the metaphor. But the point is: Librarians make sure everyone can access it. Archivists make sure it will always exist. Pirates make sure it can be gotten for free, without limitations. We need all these roles at different times, and they all work together.
Remember, if you've seen Nosferatu, the super influential silent horror film, it's because of piracy. All the "legal" copies were destroyed. Archivists made sure the pirated copies lasted. And Librarians made sure you could easily watch a copy.
Media literacy people, media literacy. 😭
They’re literally saying they’re not ok with it happening to actual people, not pixels. That’s like saying “I’m not ok with it irl” “so you’re ok with murder and genocide but you’re not ok with murder and genocide?” See how (politely) stupid it sounds.
What people think I mean when I say I ship sanegiyuu.
ratatouille went so hard and it didn’t even have to

Never forget this iconic speech
sometimes u go on google searching for a reference image and you just find something that is totally not what you are looking for but is better than anything u could have ever dreamed
who is she
the moment I saw this woman I was completely overcome with the feeling that she was, at that very moment, somehow divorcing me
You're obviously lying about being intersex. I saw that picture of your eyes and you look like a normal male. Attention seeker
I usually don't respond to anon hate but this one is really funny. Eyes?? Of all things??? There's no sexual dimorphism in the eyes 💀
looks at you with my intersex eyes
