I think Clara Bow was the first to teach the camera things with her gaze. Especially desire. Free desire. Or was it defiant desire? I forget. 😉 Also, the camera has a bad memory because it keeps getting re-taught all those things by different people. But I suppose being enamored by others is normal. Celebrities exist for good reason. Cultural context mixed with a harmonizing charisma. Maybe it's not even the camera. The story and image of Mona Lisa is still around in our collective consciousness. The girl with the pearl earring. How about Adele Bloch? Or maybe if you'd rather consider the male rendered in a painting to think about ... well, again, the Mona Lisa ... ? Regardless, legend has it that Anna Whistler was a right old twat. Kicked a cat once and liked to slaughter chickens.

The farther I get from it, the more I yearn to go back to using my old XH-A1. Just for fun, but also ... kind of a really great IQ under good conditions.

He is to me. Also, welcome on your increasing visits to hermit-town. It's nice here.

Time to open a new business in Port Huron.

Dang. It even affects wildlife!

Well, I figured if the viewers online are so non-discriminating and it just needs to be vert-vid to be a reel on our group's page, I'll just do it like this and call it good. I'm lazy, I guess. Also, we ain't trying to maximize views, so no real PR stakes involved here.

Then I'd also like to ask, what exactly is the "have to" part of it. Like, y'all can't get paid and/or make a living without vertical videos? I'm not trying to be obtuse in my responses. I don't do things for social media because I really don't want to. Dabbled for a month back during the pandemic and just decided, "Nah, not for me." My career is winding down so I'm not chasing that shit. So ... I legit don't know what's going on for a "have to" to be part of the career calculus.

What game, tho'?

Oly cameras are charming. I have had plenty come and go. I don't like NOT having at least one. Currently own a EM10iii. The intangibles just make them "funner" to use.

In a world where 1+1 no longer equals 2?

And even more than that, stories typically rely on characters almost always being portrayed as somewhat competent, even if they're nefarious. Which I always find amusing because we should all know that's one hell of a myth.

In my experience, distance from screen matters the most.

It is and it isn't. A little history reveals otherwise. Honestly, humanity's default mode seems to welcome oppression. And why not? It's intellectually easy. Many peoples don't like trying to be more smarter.

Of course not, but here we are again.

Egalitarianism is a lost cause in the USA. It would be nice to strive to be on the correct side of that spectrum, as we've done since WWII, but I ain't holding my breath. We're back to our Gilded Age mode, which I fear is the default. Maybe with the way info moves these days we'll speed run it and it'll swing back the other way somehow? Then again, I look at too many of my own family members, see how they think, and just kind of know in my gut that none of this ends well.
