Reminder that they're paying Campbell properly only after the studio disgustingly fired Melissa Barrera over her statements against genocide, which then led to Jenna Ortega quitting the franchise, so they were out their two leads.

We need folks to hammer paypros, as the holiday season is a prime opportunity to clog up their call centers and have our impact be felt the hardest.

Need contacts, talking points, etc? use the site linked! It has a ton of info that is still relevant and useful!

my hottest 40k take is that the "waaaa there shouldn't be female space marines!!!11!!!" crowd is misguided, there shouldn't be "male" space marines either. once you undergo the surgeries and genetic altering to make an astartes, whatever you were, your sex and gender is now Space Marine

Hey everyone, here's a real simple way to disable "Super Resolution" on your channels:

• YouTube Studio
• Settings

• Advanced settings
• Uncheck "Let YouTube enhance visual quality"
• Uncheck "Let YouTube enhance audio quality"

Ok, annoying but necessary nuance here:

This is AI *upscaling*, not Gen ai. AFAIK, it doesnt scrape media or need data centers. No environmental or ethical concerns as of current info.

HOWEVER, I'd still opt out as it will play havoc with low res. It's like motion smoothing, you dont want it 😅

*End users* can opt out, and will be able to check in the player whether they are watching a real or upscaled video. But I am very curious, if you could put an exact cost on this decision in terms of kWh/atmospheric CO2, what the total would come to.

i hate how people and even literature sometimes reduces the concept of an unreliable narrator to 'the book lying to you', not 'you are viewing the world through the eyes of someone who does not see an absolute truth'

And after that, we then visit Minrathous which has been hit much harder and Xeiren is able to make me crack with a Batman reference of all things.

I am so, so proud of Meredith. I hope people recognize that this isn't just a cool thing Fangoria is doing, this is also an act of historical preservation. @fangoria.bsky.social has been chronicling horror history, including the movies time has forgotten, and this will be an invaluable resource.
I'm filled with butterflies and beaming with pride to announce FIRST IN FRIGHT: THE FANGORIA COMPENDIUM, a hard-cover, full-color book that details the history of Fango, the publication I've loved all my life. www.kickstarter.com/projects/fan...
