Season 4 of Korra was a delight and seeing some people react so negatively to it (often spurred by anti-lesbian bigotry) was a bizarre experience.

Happy Landfill posted:Lowtax is a good one to mention, too. When I think of these things, I always thing of the 2000's webcomic boom, though. If you could t use that success as a springboard for something a little more legit, I guess the only thing you could do is make sure your little niche stayed successful enough to pay the bills. For some it might be easier than others, but not impossible with the advent of Patreon and streaming. The example I think of is Ryan North. It is loving WILD that a guy who wrote a comic made entirely from unchanging clip-art images of dinosaurs is now an extremely successful author of Actual Comics, while at the same time it makes perfect sense. John Allison is similar, kept doing his niche Scary-Go-Round/Bad Machinery stuff, steadily improved his craft as he did so, and used that as a base to get a publishing deal for what turned out to be very popular and critically acclaimed series (Giant Days).

TheFlyingLlama posted:if you credit kenji as the "inspiration" for your recipe, your fans can go and check and see that you actually copied it 1 for 1, because if you're hiding that you stole one of the most popular food youtubers recipes, you probably aren't good enough as a chef to make meaningful enough changes for it to count as "inspiration" On the other hand if your brand is "a charismatic person people want to form a parasocial relationship with (and give money)" you can just say "today I'm trying to cook Kenji's recipe!" complete with links in the video and/or actual footage. Then all you have to do is be mildly funny about the whole process. It's the people that want to be seen as Big Brain Geniuses but don't want to do the work that are the problem.

Tracula posted:His Wall """review""' is still one of the most fascinatingly awful things alongside, to go really low hanging here, The Room or CAD. It reveals so much more about the creator and their view of the world and how little they understand art on a fundamental level. Obviously Dan Olsons video on Doug and hbombs video about loss/the room say it better then I ever could. I still can't work out how someone with even the tiniest amount of media literacy could misunderstand The Wall so badly. It is not a subtle work!

Sephyr posted:I'm surprised he didn't just go "How can he say english schools were bad?? Didn't he read Harry Potter? You get sorted into a whole house of friends, a cool dorm, and a caring Prefect watching over you!" one of Dan Olson's key points is that all the things that Doug is writing off as shallow whining or pretentious posturing are the fallout of real events and situations that Roger Waters, and almost every other British person that was a child during WW2, would have lived through/been intimately familiar with. Doug is incapable of engaging with it from outside the POV of his own upbringing, so can only talk about it on the most shallow, surface level. To Doug, it might as well be Harry Potter for how alien the movie's raw emotional metaphors are to him.

I want a long-form analysis of The Years Of Rice And Salt from an Asian perspective, because it's an incredibly interesting alt-history where the Black Plague is 99% fatal in Europe, so history is dominated by the East. The problem is that it's written by a white guy, and I can't shake the feeling that there's a whole long wrong with it that I'm missing.

DoctorWhat posted:You guys are actively not comprehending the meaning of "dark patterns". Dark patterns are a system of manipulative tactics designed to encourage addictive and irresponsible behavior in a susceptible population. Gacha, FOMO, free casino chips, etc. I know the wider world sees addicts as pathetic subhumans but I expected more from SA, for what I now realize are totally ridiculous reasons. I think the important thing here is to blame the low level employees of those kind of jobs. They're evil and should die.

the thing is that I mostly agree wit the idea that people should avoid taking jobs in businesses that are obviously evil if they have any alternatives, it's just that most loving industries are evil and also I'm not going to scream in the face of someone serving drinks at a casino that they're a willing blood-soaked cog in the military industrial complex

fanworks are a sign of an engaged fandom, and if they get big/good enough, should be incorporated into the original and the creators hired. PC games learned this with mods in the late 90s, then immediately forgot/rejected it.

Mystery Box plotting is dumb because the real joy of an actual mystery is feeling smart when you figure it out, and TOP TIER mystery plotting is setting it up so that the audience realises what's going on juuuuust before the characters do, and making the whole thing obvious on a rewatch. But that takes effort and skill.
