"grace, why is there glove on your door, question?"

"oh that's uh -- i put that on there when i need to remember something. so when i'm leaving i see it."

"oh, okay. this is human culture?"

"well, uh, no. just me."

"mmm. this is grace culture."

he laughs. "grace culture, yeah."

"so what grace need to remember?"

"ummmm... uhh.. i forget."

"not good system. grace culture not very advanced."

"hey, it works sometimes!"

-later-

"grace have attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, statement."

"don't you mean question?"

"no question. statement. rocky research on my portable earth thinking machine!"

"rockkk, what did i say about using webmd on me. you can't just be diagnosing me with stuff."

"apology. rocky will not use webmd to diagnose grace. even if grace has all symptoms of deadly cancer."

"i don't have cancer, rock. it tells everyone that."

grace gets up to leave.

"besides," he says, tapping rocky as he walks past him. "the earth doctors already told me i had adhd when i was 12."

rocky swears he heard him wink.

Times That Copyright Expansion Has Historically Fucked Over Artists On An Institutional Level:

  • Sampling rights becoming prohibitively expensive to use by small artists
  • Musicians being forced to sign over sampling rights to their record company, making any benefits they would hypothetically gain moot.
  • The Digital Milennium Copyright Act leading to the vidmaker-stomping nightmare that is ContentID
  • The DMCA leading to making it harder than ever to preserve media due to the way it prohibits tinkering with any locks the megacorps put on it, meaning it's way easier for artists' hard work to end up vaulted and lost.
  • The way basic chord progressions and musical styles have become copyrightable thanks to various lawsuits by the Marvin Gaye estate
  • The fact that the artists of the past used to be able to remix; adapt and iterate on art made within 56 years of them, likely created in their lifetimes, and now artists can only do those things with art produced nearly a century ago by people long dead.
  • New and independent artists being crowded out of the market by megacorp-owned IPs that would be public domain (and thusly convey less of an overwhelming advantage-via-marquee-value to megacorps) if the US had its pre-1976 copyright laws.

Times That Copyright Expansion Has Actually Materially Helped Artists On An Institutional Level:

  • ????????

Times that Copyright Expansion Resulted In Something Kinda Funny:

  • When Metallica did a twitch concert and got a copyright strike on their own music as a direct result of their lobbying for copyright expansion

Buddie supercut masterpost!

Hi everyone, welcome to the updated masterlist for the buddie supercuts. This also has every Buck and Chris scene even if Eddie is not around. The first link is for the individual post here, there you can read a bit more about what I chose to add to that particular season. You can click the video to watch it on drive without downloading anything with English subtitles, I'm also adding the timestamp for the beginning of the second half of the season. The folder link so you can download the video and subtitle. All videos are 1080p 30 fps, if you're an editor, they can be a nice resource.

I don't usually add this to my stuff but this is the product of months of work, literally, you don't have to, but if you see this and think "wow, wonder if Anna has a tip button" this is my kofi and you can buy me a coffee.
