Sure i’d like to go to Hobbiton and hang out with Māori folks that’s awesome but all those tickets could be paying workers and making free book programs for the kids
For the cost of one round trip ticket to New Zealand; 500-1500 Dakota children’s books could be printed.
it’s somehow become prestigious to send a few adults on vacation instead of focusing on hundreds and thousands of children and their home acquisition
@GoranGligovic @MattRay7 Threads is quite nice but i know it’s not available everywhere, however the user base isn’t as developed, and i still don’t believe blue sky is real
So, to all those who just implicitly trust studios about how much money they’re making, here are some movies that studios have claimed LOST MONEY:
—Harry Potter 5
—Alien
—Batman
—Star Wars Return of the Jedi
The book review got a full page in the Sunday printed edition of the New York Times! That's fantastic, really glad I was able to contribute to this great book that lets YA think critically about marketing ploys disguised as "folk heroes" like Paul Bunyan
@FrictionlessDan Floating fingernails & is that a bow? is it a sword? No one will ever know. Immediately identifiable as AI generated and therefore uninspiring
The NY Times reviewed an upcoming book I contributed to about Paul Bunyan, invented to normalize the destruction of the forests. Young readers can think critically about what is presented to them as well as learning about Indigenous people!
