if you werent here in 2013-2015 idk what to tell you. it was a different world. sometimes my sherlock gifsets would get 100k+ notes. it was the gilded age of tumblr.

media literacy would automatically go up 100% if people knew how to consume stories without self-inserting themselves into the characters' shoes. "if i were him..." you're NOT. you may relate to his story, his past, his traits, his quirks, his identity but the moment you start treating the story accepting what you feel/think as what the character feels/thinks, you're misunderstanding the story.

i think ai generated videos being spread around as authentic footage is unequivocally a bad thing and i have been pretty upfront about the fact that i see misinformation as the single most significant downside of genai. but i will say that one small benefit to it is the fact that a lot more people are starting to realize that "wait, is what i'm seeing real?" is a question you already should have been asking yourself about pretty much any kind of video you see

why do I have to pay to live in an apartment, this should be free

reblogging this because I reread my post just now and I'm right

You are right but also I thought you lived in a fishbowl or even better a cool pond.
