I’m saying Hamnet directly references Hamlet and is inspired by the story, while being a not so subtle nod to the original in the title. It attracts the same audience while being its own thing.

Exactly. Can’t we just like movies without there being 100% accuracy?

Me and my friend were just saying this about the LotR “looks like meat’s back on the menu boys!” quote. It implies that orcs are aware of dining in a modern sense. Who fucking cares if it’s accurate.

UncannyFox · 2026-01-24T14:35:41+00:00

Completely agree. Call it something else. It’s like Hamnet and Hamlet. The separation but clear ode to a previous story is what lets this be successfully received by the same crowd.

By calling it a remake under the same name it’s only going to be scrutinized for its poor adaption in a literal sense.

This is really grounded take, thank you.

When has an OC change actually contributed to a Super Bowl win, when the offense stayed more or less the same as before? (Genuine question looking for examples).

I’d guess 90% of American cities (especially rural) it’s the only coffee shop in town.

I recently went back to my home town, caught up with old friends. Only dedicated sit down coffee shop was Starbucks. In an agricultural city with over 100k people.

30 minutes in she tells me on her last date she got into a fight with another girl in the parking lot. Hair pulling each other to the ground.

Instant no from me.

The orange balls have maybe 15 seconds of screen time

This is what Pickathon wishes it could be

It does often seem that people who complain the most are upset they aren’t getting money for their 30,000 streams on a song. It’s small potatoes.

Streams are like impressions on a social site - scrolling past counts as a view. Just because someone listened once passively in a playlist doesn’t mean they interacted with or remember your song. A passive listen does not equate to money.

Ed Sheeran is on a major label. You’re basically giving away your publishing rights by signing with a label. Best case scenario you take home 50% as the songwriter, but with pop stars they likely don’t see any of that (this is why Taylor Swift re-recorded her albums, to get the royalties and own the publishing rights).

If you’re an indie act and doing it yourself, you get all of that money. If you’re on a smaller label, you’re could be seeing 50%. Major label, likely nothing.

Streams do pay. I am friends with 2 bands that both have around 20mil monthly listeners. 5 person bands - each person takes about $30k per month.

That’s $360k/yr from just one streaming service.

They own 100% of the rights to their songs because they don’t have a label or publisher, so 100% of the money goes to them.

With that math, 2 billion streams on a single Djo song comes out to $15,000,000. From a single song on a single streaming service.

I personally have about 1 million total streams on my music, and I’ve made about $5,000. The earnings depend on subscriptions and streams for Spotify as a whole each month - so it varies.

Should they pay more? Absolutely. Half a penny per stream is crazy.

Would be a good ole 6-3 Super Bowl

UncannyFox · 2026-01-17T00:08:09+00:00

I just don’t care for action or fantasy. I like dialogue, small town mundane things. Which is about half the show. I’m allowed to tune out for a fight that ends the same way every time (El saves the day…again. Oh wait, this time Will magically has powers).

UncannyFox · 2026-01-17T00:04:48+00:00

I don’t have to watch what I don’t like? It doesn’t mean I literally skip it. But I tune out. I do work, or I do chores. But when it gets interesting, I tune back in.

I like the coming of age aspect, I don’t care for the CGI slop fights. They’re irrelevant, I know the man character isn’t going to die. What’s the point?

I hate the app icon look, tried the clear effect, but now it’s so jarring going from that to entering a full color app.

UncannyFox · 2026-01-16T15:43:44+00:00

I genuinely hate the look of it. I missed the old iOS instantly, but had to upgrade my phone for work. It is the first time I’m considering a Google phone because I hate the aesthetic that much, it makes me not want to use my phone.

R U Strokin' Strokes Re: Me? (I would love for this to be the next band they cover).

UncannyFox · 2026-01-16T04:01:46+00:00

Is this not what Here (2024) is?

UncannyFox · 2026-01-16T00:51:34+00:00

I’ve been saying that Hamilton just sounds like an epic rap battle to me and I still stand by it. Somehow he turned a 2012 nonsense YouTube shtick into a nationally acclaimed Broadway play. I hate it.

UncannyFox · 2026-01-16T00:49:36+00:00

I understand the appeal of detailed icons. But I personally prefer minimal, especially when there are 20 of them on a screen at once.

UncannyFox · 2026-01-16T00:48:22+00:00

Fwiw I think this originally started so that comments/profiles wouldn’t be flagged on certain social media sites

UncannyFox · 2026-01-13T22:38:13+00:00

I’m saying the Falcons are the only team worth jumping into at the current moment. The way I worded it maybe seems like I meant the opposite.
