In every way this is set up to be a joke like any other short video, it even uses the trope of main character in a wig to represent their mom, but it isn't funny at all. It's just sweet and nice
Sometimes there are memes that are so important to the culture of this site that you would swear they started in 2014 or something but you look it up and its like

If you dig into unfounded plagiarism claims, you find quickly that not many are grifts. The vast majority are people who do genuinely feel they were stolen from, and who feel genuine hurt from it...they're just wrong, from the perspective of a neutral observer.
The writer of the 1973 short story "12:01 PM" was not lying when he said Groundhog Day ripped it off, or when he went to lawyers for six months to figure out if he had a case; he spent the rest of his life convinced Groundhog Day stole from him. But the lawyers were right: he would lose, because basically the only similarity between the two stories is the existence of a time loop. "12:01 PM" is a sci-fi story where a man repeats an hour of his life due to a glitch of science; Groundhog Day is a fantasy romcom where a man repeats a day of his life until he becomes a better person with no stated cause for the loop. It would only be plagiarism in a world where you could copyright plots & own the concept of a "time loop"...and in that case there were definitely time loop stories before 1973, so "12:01 PM" would be plagiarism too. And in this world, looking at a story about a time loop & going "I should make my own, totally unique story about a time loop" is not plagiarism, either, it's inspiration (there's no evidence the creators of Groundhog Day ever saw or read "12:01 PM", but it'd be fine if they had). But it wasn't a grift; after all, he didn't sue in the end, it was someone close to his work being unable to look at it objectively. Who can blame him?
Viral plagiarism cases are so often discredited with even cursory research, one glance at legal documents citing ownership of broad genre tropes or shared inspiration or making up absurd comparisons (like The Holdovers one citing a meeting with two old friends as equivalent to the protagonist *seeing a billboard*), but the narrative of a wronged author going up against the man is so powerful and easy to latch onto, even if in practice each case is usually a writer - in some cases the *more* resourced one! - attacking another writer. It undercuts our critical thinking by establishing good and evil from the get, and has people rooting for someone who thinks that they own common storytelling conventions or the lives of historical figures and that someone else needs to be driven out of public life over it
Simply put the majority of viral plagiarism cases are unfounded. Plagiarism does obviously happen, but the type of writer-suing-somebody case you see in the media usually falls apart since...it's just that pattern over and over. But usually, their anger is sincere. It's just wrong.

i feel like with karaoke it’s like. if you’re totally horrible but with good energy people will cheer and clap and get hype because they’re wanting to support you anyway. and if you’re really really good (like aurafarming at karaoke type singing) obviously people like that. but god help you if you’re just mediocre
A lot of people are ragging on the 'cable diverted to avoid Dobby's grave after Harry Potter fans raise a stink' thing and while I also love ragging on Harry Potter fans being weird, in this case it looks like the story was completely made up.
tl;dr: There's no evidence the interview that this was mentioned in even exists, no evidence the route of the cable has ever changed, and the whole story seems to originate from one dude's podcast.
The story also broke into mainstream via the Daily Mail, who are ... rarely if ever honest or accurate.
However, "Dobby's grave" is very factually still ruining an environmentally sensitive beach in a Welsh national park thanks to fans leaving painted stones and fucking socks there. That part is 100% true.
genuinely I'm so sick of people wanting all fiction to be ethical. can we all just get a little gross with it. the point of fiction is that it's not real. we can be unethical in fiction; same goes with being perverted with fiction, being unrealistic with fiction, and being grotesque with fiction. not all fiction has to be ethical, not every character has to be ethical, and that's okay. can we stop with the puritanism. be gross. be unrealistic. be whatever. if I don't like it it's not my business as long as we're all clear that its fictional.
via ered.bsky.social, the only kinds of unethical fiction:
people in the replies are going "what about books glorifying unethical things" and "what if it's propaganda" and you, my friends, are who this comic was made for
Actually, no, I don't think that friendships dropping like flies in your late 20s and early 30s because no one has time for that between overwork and family obligations and marriage and kids and partners and the ritual of the time slayer is normal and ok. No I don't think deep conversations and spontaneous adventures being replaced with a tired coffee every six months is a normal part of growing up. I don't think that emotional intimacy and soul bonds disintegrating in the face of practical inconvenience is a fact of life. I think that means something is deeply deeply wrong with our society and I will never forgive it for the friends I've lost

I always loved how back in the day before cellphones, people were unreachable if they weren’t at home. You can call but I won’t be there to answer. You can leave a message but you don’t know how long it’ll be until I hear it. You don’t know if I’m home, but you will have to make the trip to come to my house and knock on the door, hoping I’ll be there. And if I’m not…you can’t reach me!! Now that everyone has a cellphone the expectation of being reachable 24/7 is so disastrous. And let’s not even get into read receipts. I think one of the worst times of my inner peace is when I had an apple watch and suddenly every text and phone call and notification was on my freaking wrist, even if my phone was giving the illusion of distance by being in my pocket or bag or charging in another room. I stopped using it in 2022 and I’d rather eat a jean jacket with no water than ever be so connected again. “oh you can just turn off notifications!” not the point.
