Coolest dad ever builds luge track for kids in the backyard
Jesus fuck. Someone thinks they're an amateur filmmaker. Skip the first 40 seconds to save yourself from unnecessary production.
EDIT- Scratch that, skip the whole thing. It's a cool slide though!
TED: Amanda Palmer - The Art Of Asking
I'm a stimulus junky, as I'm sure we all are, but I've gotten to the point where there are too many musicians, film makers, video game makers, for me to possibly pay all of them the asking price.
Last year I decided to stop stealing music. I spent well over $1,000 on iTunes. I torrented a lot of movies, but I also purchased a good number of blue ray discs. I also purchased a shit ton of games off of Steam, as well as illegally downloading a couple. (I also paid ~500 dollars on live concerts, including an Iron Maiden show that cost me $150.)
There are very few things I can stand to listen/watch/play more than 2 or 3 times, then I need to listen/watch something else, but I can't afford ALL the required stimulus to keep me sane.
I also need my drug money and gas because THERE IS NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION WHERE I LIVE. So inevitably I have been car obsessed, so there's more money that I'm freeing myself of.
Am I a bad person? If I didn't torrent a video, does that mean I'm going to buy it? At some point you run out of frivolous spending cash... And then how do you consume the junk that artists create? Do I just stop? How does that help an artist? I dunno, just rambling. I'm depressed and addicted to entertainment.
Personally, I think artists are talented scam artists with an unnecessary product that I LOVE and will steal if I can't afford it.
Gonna throw out what will probably be an unpopular dissenting opinion.
To quote Harlan Ellison: Pay the fucking writer.
I am pretty much the only person I know who doesn't download/torrent/stream media.
I'd love to, but I genuinely believe in rewarding creators, even if that creator is "Hollywood" or "labels" or whatever other faceless entity that can afford to be ripped off.
Amanda Palmer didn't come out of obscurity and raise $1.2 million on kickstarter. She was an established artist. An unknown band down the road won't raise that money.
Oh and since people are gonna hate this anyway, living statues are the single least creative bit of street theatre ever.
