correct me if i'm wrong, but i don't see any good reason for institutions to hoard thousands of photos taken by people who are no longer alive, keep them hidden, and then make money from access and from people wanting to use them for their own projects or any other purpose. these images are part of our shared history, not commodities. they should be seen, not stay hidden.

is that the correct gif?

Yes.

it's not enough to say "IP law doesn't prevent theft" (<- true) we must also stress that IP law enables and causes theft and then legally bars the original creators from using their creations, until corporations are mass producing the IP for immense profit while the original creators die in poverty (<- also very extremely true!!!)

having a body made of meat sucks ass

kill dorothy fuck the lion marry the tin man and i dont care about the other one

we're moving to an internet where children would be banned from reaching out for help and friendship online but abusive parents can post their children's every second online to humiliate and expose them for money with no pushback

Us fandom adults should really just go on strike. 3 months minimum where we don't post fic, we don't comment, we don't buy merch. Then we’ll see how fun the Lego Ninjago community is for anyone under 60 😂
