Graphics via @MorePerfectUS — it’s time to BREAK UP TICKETMASTER / LIVE NATION!
Thread here on the leaked documents that reveal Live Nation’s “kickbacks” they use to underpay artists, undercut promoters, and build a monopoly in live music:
@Valendale@DannyVegito@headfallsoff becoming less and less effective over time resulted in a website full of art that you can't search, see, or organize effectively. All of this culminated in the porn ban, which exacerbated all of these issues and drove huge amounts of the user-base away from the site.
@Valendale@DannyVegito@headfallsoff Tumblr's porn ban was not a singular incident. It began years before the full ban with ever tightening rules about what was allowed. Moderation was never consistent and resulted in many blogs being shadow-banned and deactivated. This in conjunction with the search function 1/2
@polypocketknife I was the only one in 90% of my classes to not stand. Most people don't think twice about it, and if they do they're too afraid of standing out to do otherwise.
@seraphemcamille "it's ableist to dodge the draft" is a craaaazy take. You think the army is begging disabled people to join? Having severe enough seasonal allergies can disqualify you from the draft lmfao
@ollieternity yeah it's walkable enough if you're never gonna leave the cap hill/lodo/baker/Lincoln park areas. But a total nightmare to use the transit outside of that area.
@porklets A lot of people do this because "Is this available?" is the default message Facebook recommends, so this can help filter out bots and people who aren't actually interested
@muttnik I do this with my leather jacket. I tell people "thanks, it's my grandma's from back when she rode motorcycles" and it makes people think my grandma is badass, but really she just likes pickleball and gardening.
