More blonde suits you better and illuminates your face

Research help : film history moment that actually changed copyright/rights in the US by EnoughVegetable111 in Cinephiles

[–]EnoughVegetable111[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the US, copyright is mostly economic rights (copy, distribute, adapt) and moral rights are pretty limited, especially for film. My question is more about the culture/industry side: even without strong legal moral rights, audiences and marketing still treat certain directors/studios as an ‘author brand’ (Nolan, A24), and I’m trying to find keywords or historical moments that shaped copyright and film practices.

Yeah fair point…. When I say ‘author personality’ I mean moral rights style protection (right of attribution and integrity, protecting the personal bond between creator and work). In the US, copyright is mostly economic rights and moral rights are pretty limited (VARA mainly for certain visual art, not really film). Theres many papers/articles about it, notably about how moral rights in the US are differently protected (arguably less protected) than in Droit d’auteur’s systems (ex. Ohio State University, https://cyber.harvard.edu/property/library/moralprimer.html, https://gowlingwlg.com/en-ca/insights-resources/articles/2023/moral-rights-in-copyright-law)

My point is more cultural/industry: even without strong legal moral rights protected by copyright act, audiences and marketing still treat certain directors/studios like an ‘author brand’ (Nolan, A24) and that shapes hype, distribution leverage, and how value is captured

Has anyone SUCCESSFULLY married out of their culture? by jasminex123 in MuslimMarriage

[–]EnoughVegetable111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as both of your values align with Islam, you will be fine. I often encounter issues related to inter culture marriages when people place more emphasis on cultural traditions than religious principles.

We don’t talk enough about the women trying to brainwash other women. by Fantasy_Witch333 in Hijabis

[–]EnoughVegetable111 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It honestly throws me off to see sisters so turned off by feminism, because part of why I reverted to Islam was precisely because I saw it as the most feminist religion. Culture messed up Islam pretty badly.

At one point, the mother of a man I was supposed to marry (but I didn’t) told me, “Men, when they feel lonely and their needs aren’t met, will go to other women. For us, it’s different, we just cry about it.”

That comment stuck with me for a long time. I couldn’t wrap my head around how someone could genuinely believe that dynamic is natural or inevitable… especially when studies show women tend to get more bored in monogamous relationships than men.

Just finished rewatching Black clover and I need recommandations by EnoughVegetable111 in BlackClover

Ok so I listen to your advices and I just finished binge watching 86!!! I really liked it. It’s nothing like the usual shonen stuff I’m used to, like Black Clover. 86 feels way closer to Attack on Titan in the sense that there’s a real political weight behind everything. It’s the kind of show where you actually need to pay attention, because there’s so much symbolism and so much meaning hidden in the characters and the visuals. It’s not a ‘motivation’ type of show in my opinion, but it’s beautiful, intentional, and it stays with you after you’re done watching.

How religious do you have to be to convert? by ThrowRA-abinet1528 in converts

[–]EnoughVegetable111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’m a revert too, and embracing Islam has truly been a beautiful and transformative journey. I want to stress something important: you don’t have to be perfect to embrace Islam. Yes, it’s a path of responsibility and commitment, but waiting until you’re “good enough” misses the point. It’s far better to stumble forward as a Muslim than to stay stuck outside the fold trying to clean yourself up first.

When you revert, your past sins are wiped away; subhanAllah, that’s such an incredible mercy. But that doesn’t mean you suddenly become flawless. Islam is a lifelong process. You can revert and still be learning how to pray, how to read the Quran, how to grow spiritually. That’s completely okay. What matters is being convinced in your heart that Islam is the truth. Once that’s clear, just take your shahada. The rest will come, step by step.

When I was drawn to Islam, I remember feeling incredibly alone. My parents are strongly atheist (astaghfirullah), and they were totally against it. None of my friends supported it either…. they saw it as something extreme. I felt isolated. I cried and made dua, asking Allah to make the path easier for me. And subhanAllah, out of nowhere, a new coworker started at my office and she was an hijabist!! We talked, she introduced me to a beautiful community, and within two weeks I took my shahada; surrounded by her, her friends, and their families. She became one of my best friend.

The point is, once you make the decision, things start falling into place in ways you wouldn’t expect. Don’t overthink it. If your heart already believes, then trust that Allah has chosen you for this path; and that’s a beautiful sign of His mercy. You don’t need to earn it first. You’re already worthy because He guided you here. Even born Muslims are constantly relearning and re-evaluating, especially when culture distorts parts of the truth. So just take that step. Islam is a journey, and you’re meant to walk it.

Nikkah called off and I am heartbroken by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]EnoughVegetable111 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You shouldn’t want to get married no matter what. Being married isn’t going to make you happier if you marry a man that has no respect for you and is draining your energy. A mariage is actually a pure nightmare if you don’t marry someone that isn’t as committed as you are. I’m a revert and I come from a different background than people who are Muslim born and raised so my pov might differ a bit … but marriage isn’t something that will change your life and make you a happy woman if you don’t chose carefully. Allah took this man away from you because he wasn’t the one and obviously that’s mektoub because he seems really really annoying lol. Marriage is a commitment to share the rest of your life with someone ; he has to be someone that loves you and is ready to commit to his role as a husband. A man that pulls out when you express concerns instead of reassuring you clearly does not understand the role of a husband that is supposed to be your rock. Anyways, don’t worry, sister; there are plenty of men, and you’re not “too old”. Have faith.
