the media literacy on this website may be piss poor but still when i see someone handwringing about media literacy ~70% of the time they're just complaining about the fact that other people disagree with them
Television producers who find their message βfailing to get acrossβ are frequently concerned to straighten out the kinks in the communication chain, thus facilitating the βeffectivenessβ of their communication. Much research which claims the objectivity of βpolicy-oriented analysisβ reproduces this administrative goal by attempting to discover how much of a message the audience recalls and to improve the extent of understanding. No doubt misunderstandings of a literal kind do exist. The viewer does not know the terms employed, cannot follow the complex logic of argument or exposition, is unfamiliar with the language, finds the concepts too alien or difficult or is foxed by the expository narrative. But more often broadcasters are concerned that the audience has failed to take the meaning as they β the broadcasters β intended. What they really mean to say is that viewers are not operating within the βdominantβ or βpreferredβ code.

Once on IMDB I saw a βgoofβ which was that during a scene set in India(?), the light flicker was at the wrong frequency (in hertz). I wish I knew what movie it was to show you guys, I want to say it was some Marvel shit.
I always wondered how this person knew that. Was there an amazing Indian electrician who just instinctively felt the flicker rate was off? Did they go frame by frame and count the flickers per second?
I wanna say that was Tenet?
It was The Bourne SupremacyΒ @garbage-empressβ

niceys ask :) what do u like about 4k
so so cute and so so sweet (if you ignore the nom of it all)
it's very fun to me when 4c does his prey routine with katie! just goes to show that hes srs abt it and it isn't just a nom-induced madness. let's ignore how obviously worse it is when it's with nom.
like look at this (NOISE WARNING.). look at katie literally barking and gnashing her teeth while she chases 4c in parkour tag. look at 4c doing his fake little scream that gets a little real when he sees katie as he turns. isn't that awesome.
and this too. 4c waiting at the dead end as katie comes around the corner in her fuckass fucking minion outfit and says come heree ^-^ LIKE THATS SO CUTE. kill that fucking slime
i think i genuinely struggled harder on ascended gruz mother than on rad.

Mary Oliver in βDog Songsβ
A cultural system of signiο¬cance seeks to avoid events that are disruptive for a given system of signiο¬cance or seeks to downplay or explain away the phenomena that are unavoidably disruptive . . . If we accept this general distinction, then we might explicate the exact nature of the βconfusionβ that induces horror in the following way. The backrooms start being terrifying not just when I ο¬nd myself surrounded by the cultural cavities, i.e. by the disorder and decay of meaningfulness. It occurs when I obtain a ο¬rst unclear feeling that here cavities are not anomalies but the constitutive principles of organization of this situation. A horror-situation, i.e. a setting where horror can meaningfully appear, is characterized by an inversed setting where something like a cultural cavity takes the position of cultural height and cultural heights are moved to the status of an anomaly that themselves call for an explanation and rearrangement; in backrooms, I myself become an anomaly.

i did actually like the map and how it grew over time, particularly the beach. and i'm NOT just saying that because of my whole thing with mace day okay.
genderqueer in that he can be both an abusive dad and an abusive mom
both an abusive boyfriend and an abusive girlfriend
i was too young to notice that some types of love could be bad.

If i can still send in an ask for that meme, can I s/y 4c/nom
yes you may! i think it's so fucking great that they're so fucking compatible with each other. nom likes hitting things. 4c likes being hit. nom likes chasing things. 4c likes being chased. nom likes power. 4c likes puppeteering situations to subjugate himself and let his scene partner do whatever they want with him, which is what he wants. nom likes abus--
they both like parkour. they met through parkour. really thats such an integral part of this bc 4c could do this with anyone because hes really fucking skilled at his whole deal and in fact can pull off his whole petulant nervous prey routine even with an npc that has prewritten dialogue (portal 2's wheatley.) and with non s-tiers like katie. unfortunately there r no s-tier movement mains and the ones that do exist are too busy being masochistic to be sadistic towards 4c like he wants (or are only ever sadistic in terms of making painful parkour maps) so. he slots back in with nom instead.
what else. nom likes being mean in a way that announces himself. 4c likes being mean in a way that he can hide (usually by pinning it on someone more obvious). nom can't do anything. 4c likes being helpful. nom likes the reactions that he gets when he torments someone. 4c likes the reactions that he gets when hes being tormented. 4c asks for it while he denies asking for it. nom likes taking without even asking for it first.
they know these things abt each other. they know each other so well. it's sweet, in a way, that nom can proclaim that 4c will always be by his side because "that's just how their dynamic is", and 4c will affirm it while giggling. it's sweet and cute and nothing else. no grit teeth here.
they're just such a great match for each other. wait did you mean their bannerfall characters
Cam: It-it-it-it-it breached containment, massively. Um, so much so that I got messages from family members as well. I got a message from my dad's best man? At his wedding, who I haven't seen in a number of years, congratulating me on my engagement. (three seconds silence) My dad's best man. In the family group chat, I got a message from my auntie that said, um, "why have I heard that you're engag-" I need to find the exact quote, because it was just so ridiculous, hold on-where is it again...yeah. "Cameron Wilson, what's with the 'he said yes' thing?" Um, "so and so thought you got engaged but I told him that wasn't Scott." The tweet went to my auntie's colleague, at work, who recognized it was me and showed my auntie, at work, that I had gotten engaged.
Cam: So that when she sees the tweetβand she has met Scott, a couple times, and gets on really well with Scott. So is obviously massively confused and calls me immediately to say, "what-what's happened with Scott? Who is this man?" Um. So, yeah, it went to my auntie's work, who-who then she had to, very very confused realize that I wasn't actually engaged, and I had to explain the situation. Um. So that was fun.
Cam: Um. I got a message from my mum? My mum messaged me, um, (through laughter) it was quite a funny message, actually. I need to find it. Cause she follows me on Twitter, my mum follows me on Twitter, I need to find what she said. She-she like said, um, (laughs). Where is it, hold on. Hold on, yeah, here it is, says, um, "is your friend Grian Scottish? Gaelic Duolingo just told me Grian equals sun." To which I respond, "no, his name is actuallyβ" and then Grian's name, um, and then she just goes, "oh, well..." and then that's the end of the conversation. So. Yeah.
