And I Am LIVING For It - Tumblr Posts
My dash did a thing
I'm honestly surprised more of Tumblr isn't talking about this, or at least I haven't seen nearly the level that he deserves. I've been watching John Oliver for years and there is little I look forward to as much as whatever violently chaotic fuckery he is up to next. If you love the fact that he is currently legally blackmailing congress, you should check out some of the other stuff he's done, like the (multiple) times he's called out the FCC by having audience members flood their comment system and crashing the website with support for net neutrality or robocalling them every 90 minutes for them to take action against spam calling. Or when he gave AT&T (otherwise known as "Business Daddy") a two-middle-finger send off after it was announced that AT&T no longer officially owned HBO (and has a history of calling the company out). OR that time that he forgave nearly $15 Million dollars in medical debt. Or literally any of his political (or non-political!) segments on stories that don't nearly get enough talk or time in the spotlight. There's so many things he's done that deserve just as much attention as his most popular moments.
Dude this is so f*cking briliant. To basically get Congress to realize how f*cked up data privacy laws are. He did data mining, targeted men over 45 that are within 5 miles of the US capital, and put ads out including “do you want to read Ted Cruise fanfiction”. it looks like 100s clicked it including 3 that seemed to be in the capital building while doing so, which then means he has their device info, ip address etc. which he can then mine even more.
Could really use more media where wives viciously protect their husbands
I wanna hang this glorious post on my freaking walls! ❤️
15x04 Episode Review - What a Meta Rollercoaster THAT was!
Jensen Ackles directed this. Let that sink in before you read on. Because this means EVERYTHING.
Davy Perez said on Twitter that he had a lot of help with this episode from Bobo, Dabb, Meredith, Even from Jensen and Rob. Which seems pretty clear from me as I was blown away by what I consider a meta masterpiece.
There is a lot to unpack here so let me just jump straight in with my favourite part:
THE REDEEMED FANGIRL AND THE BRONLY GOD
In an episode directed by Jensen Ackles it both astonishes me and pleases me immensely that the strongest and most interesting plot didn’t involve the brothers. Every single scene with Becky and Chuck was a galaxy brain of meta and my head is still buzzing about it.
