You know sometimes I think we forget that all these 'advertiser friendly' marketing standards we have that are ruining our internet don't just exist in a void. It's not as if these things are inherently unadvertiseable and that's why the internet is becoming increasingly sanitized; it's cultural, not corporate. It's always been cultural.

American society is founded on puritanical values and incredibly warped views of sex and violence. Personally I don't understand how in movies stuff like torture porn is completely okay and accepted but an unsimulated sex scene is somehow this big controversy everybody talks about for months that often gets censored down on release. It's as if violence and pain are considered to be better and more family friendly than love and pleasure. Which, you know, looking at a lot of Christian families...

Anyway, while it is definitely not good that the internet's being shaped by corporate interests to the tune of selling as much to as many as possible, its standards are just a reflection of our society's own. Dismantling capitalism is important, but only half the battle. You gotta change the culture, too. We've done it before. 20 years ago almost nobody dared advertise to us queers, now look at where we are, we're just as exploitable to them as anybody else. We shifted the cultural standard.

I think we might actually make faster progress on protecting the internet by focusing on culture and capitalism rather than just the latter.

It would be truly fantastic if the supreme court could just decide one day that "advertiser friendliness" is a first amendment violation

#political #well about as political as i get #it's always been bizarre to me that corporations would have this much control over where their ads get put?#like who cares if the people buying your products like to say fuck?#imagine if you went to mcdonalds and the automated ordering thing told you you couldn't get a big mac b/c alexa recorded you swearing #free speech #there was a really terrible period a few years ago where a lot of people were happy about amazon/twitter/etc. banning people and like #*cue “first they came for the racists and i did not speak up b/c i was not a racist” lmao*#the point isn't that people you agree with are in charge of social media the point is nobody should be in charge #advertiser friendly #.

as an aroace person with limited sexual experience, no interest in watching porn, and poor sex ed as a teen, there IS something simultaneously funny and vaguely tragic about being 28 adult years old and realising how extremely tiny your frame of reference is for genitalia and deciding you should expand this to better understand bodies (yours and others). and then you're just there like "okay so what the fuck do I even google right now, anyway"

#vivid flashbacks to being 19 and going on scarleteen like 'help what's a clitoris'#anyway society (by which i mean repressed evangelical white brits lol) really marked a whole area of anatomy as off limits huh #and the modern advertising friendly internet does not counteract it

Controversial opinion about the Watcher streaming service, apparently: This was a really exciting announcement that everyone was so excited to shit on that y'all may end up killing Watcher altogether.

I'm going to try to be really clear about this, because I don't want to dismiss valid concerns, so here we go.

Watcher came to us and they said, "We want to make our best content for you. We don't want you to be the product we have to sell to advertisers, we want you to be an audience that we can take on the coolest journey we can make. But that takes money that we can't get from YouTube revenue." And I honestly thought this was a perfectly logical and reasonable direction to take the company so Watcher could continue to exist in its best possible form.

Are there things they could have stated more clearly? Yeah, especially that their YouTube library would still be available and what would happen to people who were already patrons of the channel.

Do I understand why people would be upset about potentially losing access to Watcher? Of course. It's an amazing company making amazing content, and not everyone can afford a streaming service. They did openly encourage password sharing, which I happen to think is very cool of them, but some people would still lose access and that sucks.

But I truly don't understand how "We want to make amazing content and keep our amazing team, and that needs a budget that YouTube just can't give us" turned into "Wahhhh give us your money, we want it all" to some people. I think it's worth remembering that Watcher is a small company with a small team, not a streaming giant looking for one more way to milk an extra cashflow opportunity.

I truly hope that Watcher making everything free on YouTube on a delay because people yelled loud enough doesn't shoot them in the foot. Because I think they make great content and I think they deserve to be paid fairly for it and pay their staff fairly for it. Content creators aren't factories; they don't have to churn free content out for you forever. If Watcher becomes untenable because Ryan, Shane, and Steven can't make good content and make enough money to live off of at the same time, it will simply vanish. And I'm sure some of the same people yelling about the streaming service will yell about that too, if it ever happens.

I don't know, I just didn't think, "We're trying to make the best possible content for you," deserved this much of an outcry.

#i KNOW some of y'all pay for dropout #you think they could make 3/4 of those shows if they were still mainly on YouTube?#like brennan #shane is simply unmonetizable when he acts like himself #at least to advertisers #they'll be able to handle heavier topics on ghost files without self-sensoring to stay ad-friendly!#they can take risks with their shows and know they have a solid income to rely on!#they can say fuck!#can't wait for the hate mail to roll in for this one #original #watcher #watcher entertainment #watcher tv #also it's definitely not the ONLY factor to the outcry #but i cannot help but think that it's not NOT a factor that the majority of people we've seen on watcher are poc

The funniest kind of critical role "critique" is always going to be the 'they present themselves as if they aren’t rich/a company no I will not give any examples' crowd. Like what does this even mean. They start literally every single episode with informing you they are professional voice actors. They have clearly advertised sponsors. They have an entire line of merch and an animated show. The production value of the set is bonkers. They run a charity foundation. Do you want them to start every episode with a blaring siren and a warning saying 'beware! company run content! we make money!!' Are you just angry that they are friends having fun as they make a living. Do you have any understanding of how money works.

#critical role #it's always the same people who think they could’ve funded tlovm in its entirety with the kickstarter money too #or that the cast is personally responsible for every single fan acting badly #'how dare they say don’t forget to love each other when their fans are sometimes mean!' like cmon #my theory is that some people are so unable to view celebrities as actual people that they’ve started to view the critrole cast the same #as those corporately run social media accounts pretending to be fun and friendly while just trying to advertise #i don’t know how to tell you that the cast really are friends playing a game. they are also a company. and actual people hanging out online #they are incredibly open about all of this #if you somehow still think they are presenting themselves as not a company that is frankly a skill issue #cr discourse #i came across one of those old posts and was reminded how silly a take this is #nella talks cr

GUYS GUYS GUYS MIKOTO REFERRED TO HARUKA AS JUST “HARUKA” INSTEAD OF “HARU-KUN” HERE!!! IS THIS JOHN TELL ME IS THIS JOHM IS HE FINALLY BACK AFTER A YEAR???

#milgram #john kayano #john milgram #Interesting if how this is true that makes the 3 times he appeared in minigram to be interacting with Haruka #Ok I know there was that other time where he referred to Haruka as haruka but used boku #But hear me out that was when he was simulating a commercial or advertising space so it’d make sense he’d refer to him by name #But here I do feel like mikoto would be more friendly especially if he was telling a story #Am I just crazy or am I getting onto something

i hate the girlbossification of periods like no one swims and runs and jumps over a burning pit of mutant crocodiles when they're on their period?? Like it's okay to show girls being in pain on the couch or bed you can still advertise your pads but come on

#or would seeing girls being in pain and struggling and even going to the hospital in extreme cases too upsetting for a certain audience?#is the pain and bloating not advertiser friendly?#nfnd sorry im just so mad #like good for the girls doing extreme sports on their periods but what about showing ordinary people #you don't have to prove that you can do stuff extra hard when you're already in pain it's okay to just cuddle up in bed

Just a reminder that when it comes to ship headcanons, fics, art, etc, it can be sexual, if you want it to be. Sex is a morally neutral activity. A relationship is not "less wholesome" if the characters have sex. The addition of sex does not reduce the depth of love or emotion characters can have for each other, it's just a different way to bond.

Reminder that some ace and aro people have sex as well, for various reasons! There's nothing wrong with that either, just as there's nothing wrong with Never having sex. Again, it's just a thing people can choose to do, or not!

You shouldn't feel ashamed or obligated to either add or remove sexual content from your art - create what YOU want to create, however it resonates with you! As long as you tag and warn appropriately, the world is your oyster....

#not targeted at anyone in particular. just had this thought #also get annoyed when some of my work gets called more “wholesome” than others #because ppl somehow think a normal activity for most living animals is inherently dirty or disgusting #fam I'm ace. I get it.#but just because you might not want to do it personally doesn't give you moral high ground on ppl who do or art depicting it.#just think there's a lot of weird stigma around sex in art with Today's Youth being brought up in such sanitized advertising-friendly spaces #anyways do what you want and let the haters die mad tbh

Frankly to the Watcher fans being mean as fuck to Ryan and Shane for this decision and calling them greedy mfers, you are uninformed, mean, and frankly I'm happy to see you go

#watcher #man yall love supporting indie content until you have to put your money where tour mouth is huh #you have 0 clue about the exact figures watcher makes nor what the people in it make #and yet youve decided theyre rich and greedy #and not that yt is a platform that is sanitizing itself so that any content they decide is too dark or political (on the leftist side anyway #or just has someone sayibg fuck to many times isn't advertiser friendly #just stop watching then #the entitlement to free content is disgusting these days god damn

she means well. she means Incredibly well. but the '[N] genders' transphobic joke I've seen a million times is mixing feelings with the inherent hilarity of someone genuinely trying thinking there's a Definitive List Of All Genders (Comprehensive)

I apparently will be one of her first genderqueer clients.

#persona jumpscare #the WHIPLASH she gave me holy shit #she was a bit surprised I came to her (an older woman) and not someone a) younger b) advertising queer friendly #......they're full. bcs queer folk are scared abt picking their therapist for a Good Reason #she passed the rainbow bowtie + rainbow bag + switching my own pronouns a few times litmus test so I just decided it's worth the shot
