I was told about palletteswap in the smiling friends thread, its kind of like the onion where they have fake articles but also have real articles on their site, trust me I too fell for this bullshit.

It's a satire article similar to the Onion or Hard Drive. It's on the About page that article of "Different Colors" are for entertainment

Probably not a good idea for a news site to have both real and fake articles published, I almost took the bait there for a second

If the show was supposedly transphobic, then Allan would be made fun of for dressing in drag as well.
 
Surprised no one posted this. For context, Aaron Blaise was a Disney animator who worked on many films, most notably to this video, Brother Bear. Recently, he paired up with a wildlife conservation organization for endangered polar bears to produce this animated short film. The film is also attached to a kickstarter for a card game based on the short if anyone is interested, which I will post a link below.

It is a very sweet short worth your time. Was surprised how emotional it was for 10 mins. Really has that 90s-00s Disney magic with a very reminiscent art style.

what @Sleazy Car Salesman said. Publicly traded companies rely on investors for some amount of operating costs, and the highest ranking investors can even legally control some part of your company as if they were employed there. But there’s never any guarantee that an investor knows what is good for your company. They just gave you a lot of money and expect you to pay it back at some point (by increasing shareholder value). And it's created this culture of people who race to maximize everything at the expense of the structural integrity of the company and its employees. It’s like the end of Back to the Future 3, right, where they need to get this old 1800’s locomotive up to 88mph. Feeding it that much fuel, getting the heat up that high, it builds up extreme pressure in the boiler and the train will eventually explode. Except for a lot of these business types, exploding the boiler is the point. Exploding the boiler is a successful operation. Some companies need investor money to survive. But… not all do. Many of them still go public anyway, because the race to explode the boiler matters more than just being comfortable. We’re still in the era of people starting companies just to sell them.

Netflix didn’t want to just coast. Movie disc rentals by mail became streaming movies. That turned into streaming TV. That turned into Netflix wanting to make their own original content so they wouldn’t have to pay to license anyone else’s movies. That turned into Netflix wanting to offer games. And lest we forget, the founder of Netflix specifically has a vendetta against theatrical movies and continues to deliberately erode that market. There is no “coasting” for Netflix. There is only more and faster. Netflix put out 17 original films in 2016. In 2024, Netflix put out 543 Netflix Original movies and TV shows. The aim is not to maintain a good platform, the aim is to dominate and make all the money there is to make in multiple industries. The line must always goes up until the boiler explodes.

Wait, so what happened then? Was it just troll's remorse for the sake of "I am a reformed person" (really, they saw the winds changing and decided to say what people wanted to hear)?
