there’s a lot of actually sensible curiosity about the minutiae of a US state-sponsored execution—who does lighting? are there ads? is there chat? who’s on crafts? is it multi cam? this is the actual banality of evil & if you are asked to facilitate this it is your task to instead stand in its way.

courtney love lies bleeding says: who's gonna be the first company to sponsor that televised execution? i am fascinated by the idea of ad breaks and what the cost will be.emily blight says: this is the actual banality of evil shit. the person who provides the facilitator guide in an interactive pdf. is there a crafts table? someone will set that up. you should not be one of these people.zoë “baddie proctor” quinn there's gonna be a guy who does the sound check for the first livestreamed state execution. they'll probably have someone stand where the guy is gonna be shot to death by the state so that they can make sure the lighting, color, and framing is "correct" when people watch a man die. some producer, probably within the next month, will decide if this man's death is a single camera setup or if they're going to do multi camera and if there will be commentators. They probably have to design what will cover the faces of the shooters or look at headshots if there's no coverings at all
