On TikTok, PimEyes has become a formidable tool for internet sleuths trying to identify strangers, with videos notching many millions of views showing how a combination of PimEyes, and other search tools, can, for example, figure out the name of a random cameraman at a Taylor Swift concert.
What. the Absolute. FUCK.

Listen. LISTEN.
I need to be clear.
I love movies. I love TV. I made a living as a film and TV critic for like a decade before going back to school. Narrative is literally my life. It’s the only thing that continually and consistently makes sense to me. I love this shit.
I don’t give a fuck if the strike lasts for a decade. I don’t care if the business of entertainment is ground to a halt so long that the whole thing crumbles to ashes. I don’t give a fuck if none of the shows I watched in the last year get a next season. I don’t give a single scintilla of a shit if any of the movies I was looking forward to in the next year or two get cancelled forever.
The people who bust their ass to make the narratives that bring me so much emotional and intellectual joy should be able to eat and provide housing. And I don’t mean whoever the current big star is. The woman who plays Girl At Table and the man who plays Guy In Elevator are integral parts of the tapestry. And they need to eat. They need to live.
If those people can’t live then I don’t need movies or TV. If studios want to use digitally created background actors then I don’t need movies or TV. If producers want AI produced screenplays then I don’t. Fucking. Need. Movies. Or. TV.
The men and women who have spent their lives creating works that have brought my such profound joy and even, for a time, employment are my literal fucking heroes, and if they need to burn the structure down to ensure they can continue their existence then so be it.
If that means the shows and movies I love get cancelled so be it.
If that means the industry is never the same so be it.
Fuck the studios and fuck the executives.

Sometimes I think about the intrinsically doomed tragedy of Lisa loving Taylor and frantically trying to prevent her self destruction by doing absolutely everything for her while refusing to let down her own walls, and when she is genuine and lets Taylor see through the facade it's not enough to keep her and she still leaves both times. Or I think about the unbreakable bond and trust between Rachel and Taylor where Taylor is the only one who tries to communicate properly with her and does so much to help to the point where Rachel would trust her with literally anything which means she trusts Taylor to have a plan even when Taylor's plan is to throw herself away. Or I think about Brian and Taylor's friendship and later relationship that happened because Brian needed some way to deal with the horror of what Bonesaw did without letting down his walls because if he stops appearing in control he'll crack and they just both tried and failed so hard to be normal, but if things went differently they could have been happy together. Or I think about Taylor and Alec and how Alec saw her as a good normal how Taylor never really understood him even at the end and didn't even like him because she can't acknowledge their similarities and maybe if things were different they could grow to understand each other a bit more. Or I think about Taylor and Aisha and how Aisha went from being a mischievous gremlin constantly to losing her best friend and then her brother and then she had to stand by Taylor and sing to her as she broke and faded as a person while fully knowing she was going to lose another friend and having that confirmed when Taylor seized her body and held a knife to her throat. And every time I think about all the tragedies of loving Taylor Hebert, the ways things could have gone differently and everyone could have been happy if things were tweaked in the slightest way, I remember the glory of fanfiction and bask in the knowledge that other people feel this and will write their own fics where the characters get a better ending, and life is good.
And then I go on AO3 and I remember that 35% of fanfic in this wretched fandom is alternate powers for someone named Taylor who definitely isn't acting like her, 18% is revenge fantasies against the bullies where Taylor is harsher to Sophia specifically hmmm I wonder why, 22% is Taylor in the most unrealistic sanitized relationship ever written where everyone is out of character and reading it feels like eating styrofoam, 13% is attempting to redeem Purity or Rune or someone else in the E88, 11% has Greg as a main character with epic gamer powers, and the remaining 1% is actually readable original fanfic. I'm so tired. Why are so so many people shipping some combination of Taylor, Victoria, and Amy. Who the fuck is writing Polysiders. Why is 80% of this written and read by people who haven't read Worm and smugly believe that the absolute garbage fanfics they've read are better because nothing bad happens. I'm going insane I can't take this.

Me: There's not such thing as, "not real music." No one gets to be the true arbitrator of what is or isn't art. We can say something is subjectively or even objectively bad art, but 9 times out of 10, that piece of music is still art.
Me hearing the sushi place play club remixes covers of oldies songs: burn it to the ground
