for the redditors coming here, this is how we spread news of important events in the world, with a Destiel meme
For everybody who’s been here a while and felt like Wiley E. Coyote just after running off the edge of the cliff when they scrolled down to find nothing below
hey! don’t do this! if it tears or otherwise leaks in any way you’re going to get cheese and meat grease in your toaster and that’s a really really great way to start fires. toasters are made for bread. they are not made for anything else and especially not something that is going to potentially drip grease as it heats up
i realized that just scrolling by this addition is easy to miss or skim over but tl;dr:
To expand on the crumbling of the patriarchal edifice of the family.
If society agrees that children can know themselves, and have a right to self determination…. Everything else that Conservatives argue they have a right to exert over children crumbles. As just two examples….
ALL corporal punishment rightfully becomes recognised for the assault it is.
Failure to appropriately consider the wishes of children in medical care and provide information in an age appropriate way is recognised as child abuse and malpractice.
Children are entire people, they deserve all of the rights, privileges and protections afforded to adults.
my favorite genre of photo is cosplayer out in a random place in public. and i’m not talking abt malls or hot topic and shit where you’re already more likely to find cosplayers. i’m talking abt seeing like a junko enoshima cosplayer at a mcdonald’s
ok but i don’t think any of these can compete with this pic taken by a professional photographer of just the most dejected spamton i’ve ever seen. just alone. with three seperate drinks. also this was featured on an official bbc news report
Genuinely why aren’t mudskippers one of the most famous memetic animals in all of human society? What did sloths and even now tardigrades really do to be more famous and more talked about than a fish with the dumbest face in the world that also walks out of the water and also it’s a tiny ferocious predator. I bet people wouldn’t overlook them if they were big enough to eat us too. People won’t when I make it happen. youll see
I am in love w the way pre 2000s films have that hazy feel to them. hd honestly kills the vibe
I think that’s one of the reasons why “period” media that’s marketed off the Aesthetic sometimes bothers me…….like they get the music, the clothing, the cars……and yet it always feels like something is missing
like,
vs
or even compare the early x files to the reboot
something is just lost with the crispness
someone in the tags said early spn vs new supernatural and tbh 100% yes !!
vs
I never realized how much I missed the grainy undersaturated filing …… “good lighting” and sharpness strike again
Seasons 1-3 were shot on 35mm film
4-15 were all shot on digital cameras, a change that the network insisted on
Yeah the exact thing that changed is that all the old stuff was recorded on film and all the new stuff was recorded on digital media.
i was going to say the film thing and the someone brought up supernatural and i was like “nah” and then @aphony-cree out here dropping that bomb…. in *2005,* to *2008?* there was a show shooting on film???? god you guys MOST shows went though this transition in the 90s how the fuck was SPN on FILM
In the 2000s dramatic shows had a good shot of convincing networks to let them use film. The network still had film cameras they’d bought and maybe hadn’t gotten enough use out of before the switch to digital. Most dramas can’t be shot entirely in the studio, they need to go on location, so it made sense to let them use the older cameras while the new expensive digital cameras stayed in the studio where they were safer
Supernatural wanted the 35mm film aesthetic and hated when they were forced to switch to digital
They just recently released a 4K version of Lord of the Rings and they’re so Crisp. None of those soft fantasy vibes
one of my least favorite things about these 4k updates to films (especially ones that used actual film) is that they also go and try to do color correction. like there’s a REASON that some scenes are heavily blue saturated. that wasn’t purely an effect of using film, but also a choice during the editing process. color is just as important to a movie as anything else.
it’s the exact reason why the matrix was shot with blue heavily filtered out to give that greenish-gray appearance, which added to the feel for a grungey dystopian machine-ruled future. The 4k version of it still has that there for the most part, but you can tell they did some color correction too and it throws off the entire vibe.
not to mention 4k updates of older movies REALLY makes the CGI stand out in a bad way and often times reveals imperfections in makeup that they knew, at the time, wouldn’t be noticed once everything was edited and it hit the big screens.
There’s something a theatrical costumer told me about, the 10 foot rule. As long as the costume can pass muster from 10 feet away, it’s good enough. Too sharp attention ruins the illusion.
