@riverseeber.netHypothetical that I'd like to explore: If a person were to try to create some piece of fiction that took place in, say, Gotham City, or on Gallifrey, or Tatooine, they'd have their asses sued off by DC, or the BBC, or Star Wars/Disney, because those locations come from movies that are […]

@riverseeber.netYou guys remember when Netflix was like $9/month, and it got you unlimited ad-free streaming of basically everything.
