My reaction/analysis of the choice of shot for the "climax" of "Pinocchio: A True Story"! 🤥
I do not condone the film's funding by the Russian government (via the Russian Cinema Fund), or any related profits that could financially fuel their invasion of Ukraine. DO NOT buy or stream this film through platforms which could contribute to this, and make sure to support Ukraine! 🇺🇦

Refuge | On two very different outlooks in the face of crisis
7 min video
Because I had some leftover thoughts after the previous video.
Stripped of all religious trappings there are two very different outlooks on the world. Given the crises we face, we might want to choose one over the other.
This should not be newsworthy. It should not take hundreds of thousands of dollars in court judgements to make news be news again. For reporters to report the facts - in real time, not in a disclaimer after the interview is aired - is not too much to ask; we need a 21st Century Fairness Doctrine.

🏞️ Thumbnail description: An armoured warrior with a curved greatsword stands on the slope of a hill, facing the valley below. There is a forest of orange-leafed trees and a towering, dimly-lit wall in the distance, as well as glowing golden leaves falling from the night sky. The Elden Ring and Kabbaway logos are featured, and the thumbnail is framed by an orange border.

I think a big hurdle with getting people onto the platform is the fallacy of convenience and is essentially a matter of instant versus delayed gratification. Even if #Mastodon is a better experience that just requires a little extra effort to get into, people will most often go for the instant gratification of hopping into one of the human rights violations we call mainstream social media like #Threads, #Twitter, #TikTok, #Instagram and more simply because it's easier.
Even if the aforementioned more convenient options are literal spyware, encourages super unhealthy mindsets of bigotry; ableism; turning oneself into a commodity; and spreads disinformation like a disease, and has actively tanked the mental health of the human population in just a few decades flat! The amount of people in groups outside of Mastodon that I have had to steer away from places like TikTok is scary because people are willing to throw their rights and privacy away for some goddamn internet clout: one of the most worthless currencies humanity has ever designed.
So, I think one way we can tackle the delayed gratification hurdle is just.. avoid talking about federation and taking things off-topic by having to explain a bunch of terminology. Just... invite your friends to your instance, *then* explain what Mastodon is, #Fediverse, all that. Just get them on the platform first; don't make it overly complicated. Just make it seem like they're signing up to the usual social media platform, and slowly introduce them to what makes Mastodon so unique.
Not only does this avoid having to get people do preliminary research (which is usually a surefire way to turn people away from the platform), but it can also keep them off overcrowded instances like Mastodon.social and Mastodon.world because when you recommend Mastodon, people just look it up and end up joining either of those two by the name. And even if your friend(s) doesn't like the instance you've chosen for them, they can just migrate their entire account elsewhere!
I think it'd just be a better approach to get them through the door first before overwhelming them with all the Fediverse talk. Because even I am still overwhelmed by all the other Fediverse platforms, and it absolutely can be daunting.
Being social *and* commercial is hard/ly even possible.
