people are STILL OUT HERE IN 2018 W BLACK TEXT ON DARK PURPLE AND DARK BLUE BACKGROUNDS. WHY.
lads, literally the very first rule of web design is READABILITY.
you have to have contrast between your background and your text.
like…….you pretty much can’t have a dark background if you have black text because it’s super difficult to read; if i have to highlight and puzzle out what your text says because it’s two shades different than your background? i and 95% of people looking at your page are going to hit that back button REAL fast
The next time I see one of those “millenials will be photographing the end of the world” posts I’m gonna scream because let me tell you, I just went through a natural disaster and Snapchat literally saved people’s lives. Thanks to snapchat I knew exactly what roads were flooded, what stores were open, what my HOUSE looked like (since I wasn’t there), and which shelters I could go to. People were snapping/tweeting asking to be rescued and THEY WERE. I didn’t get my news from the tv, I saw it in real time on social media and I will never not be grateful for that.
Millennials will survive the end of the world because we photographed it.
Also like… yeah no shit we’ll be taking pictures of the end of the world, why do old people say that like its a bad thing? It’s called documenting, and people have literally always done it. When the Titanic sank, people were sketching it from the lifeboats. When Mount St. Helens erupted, a photographer named Robert Lansburg realized he was too close to possibly escape, so he took pictures until the last possible second, put his camera in his bag, then sheltered it with his body. The film was undamaged, and his pictures were groundbreaking contributions to geology, because obviously nobody had ever witnessed a volcanic eruption that close. The only reason any footage exists of the first plane hitting the world trade center on 9/11 is pure luck; a group of students were filming a documentary, and thought a plane flying into the city was interesting enough to film. If they hadn’t been outside at that moment, with the camera rolling, on a street with a clear view of the towers, there would be no visual record of the first plane.
Yeah. People document major events. It’s kind of what we do. That’s not a bad thing.
they just don’t like phones
They just dont like millenials.
Also it’s harder to sweep an injustice under the rug if people have splashed photos of it all over the internet.
“i am a monument to all your sins” is such a fucking raw line for a villain it’s amazing that it came from halo, a modernish video game, and not some classical text or mythos
classic texts have nothing on the crazy people come up with in modern times tbh
