@Siphonay Wow, what a rude asshole.
@christinelove It's magic and I love it.
@RecursiveRabbit @ppng @ArtistMarciaX@playvicious.social The Just World Hypothesis is something white people, particularly conservatives cling to, and it's anything but. It breeds moral complacency, and dispossesses people of the desire to right wrongs. Because in their minds, either it will get taken care of on its own, or...yeah, "the victim deserves it."
@ppng @ArtistMarciaX See also: The Just World Hypothesis.
Really turns morality upside-down when you presume victims deserve it.
A Planck length is a unit of length which can be derived from Planck's constant. It is the smallest length which is possible in our Universe.
And it's unimaginably tiny. A hundredth of a billionth of a billionth of the size of a proton. But this is significant. Anything smaller than a Planck length cannot exist. It would not make physical sense.
Planck lengths are basically Universe pixels.
Apparently, the danish songwriter's union (KODA) is in conflict with Google over how much YouTube should pay musicians.
If you tomorrow suddenly can't listen to Volbeat, Aqua, D-A-D, or Alfabeat on youtube, it's because KODA hasn't allowed the current licensing deal to be extended.
This is your irregularly scheduled Scandinavian reminder to join a union!
(I'm a member of two; KODA is one of them)
To be clear, it's Google that's about to remove all danish music from YouTube, because KODA won't accept a 70% decrease in licensing payment to musicians.
The new deal they're trying to negotiate is a collective deal including Norwegian and Finnish songwriters unions too, so it may or may not include all music from Norway and/or Finland too.
This could include bands such as ABBA, Roxette, Ace of Base, Avicii, Nightwish, HIM, Arch Enemy, HammerFall, Opeth, Apocalyptica.
They motherfucking did it. Google is now blocking everyone in Denmark from hearing Danish music on YouTube.
Everyone else can hear our music but us.
What The Fuck.

@ArtistMarciaX@playvicious.social Yeah, there is this one person who I despise because they mocked PV for calling out racist peeps in a toxic instance, and acted as if it's just some show for them to gawk at.
That was months ago.
Recently, I have been catching them policing the actions of autistic people and inciting harassment towards them, because the autistic person dared to be rude and stand up for themself. Basically, playing woke while harming vulnerable people.
That person is white.
@ArtistMarciaX@playvicious.social Exactly, and I never got why people actually fall for it.
"Oh but the victim ain't no saint!"
And it's like, that's not the point. The black folk killed could very well be coming at the cops with the knife, that still doesn't justify what they've done, and the times they've used racial slurs as if the police brotherhood is still a klan meeting.
It's not the police's place to be judge jury and executioner, and it sure as hell isn't the white people's right to judge black victims
capitalists be like "capitalism is necessary because people don't naturally want to work or help each other so without a system that (totes definitely always ;) ) rewards you for doing those things society would fall apart, unfortunately" which is really fucking funny because being productive and helping other people are two of the most obvious and dominant human urges
