Today we’re diving into the crucial topic of making Microsoft Word documents compliant with Section 508 of The Rehabilitation Act: making charts and graphs accessible. This element is not only fascinating but also essential for MS Word accessibility and inclusivity.

I finished the graph of the Drawfee Cascada streak, so for any other numbers nerds:

(How to read it: The chart shows how long it has been since Drawfee last made an "every time" joke. For example, on September 28, they hadn't for 12 episodes.)

Here's the current graph of the Cats (2019) streak as well:

You can find links to view interactive versions of the charts (as well as the data spreadsheets) in my pinned post.

dnp movie analysis p2: genres, studios, franchises

thanks everyone for enabling me <3 i'm back with some more analysis by genre, franchise, and studio!

genre ratings

first, genre ratings (genre is kinda arbitrary here, tbh; there's a lot of overlap!)

here we have the first table (please tumblr don't mess with the quality) (i can post the excel sheets if needed; r tables were being a pita)

here we have the number, mean (= median for all of this analysis), minimum, and maximum ratings by genre. within each statistic, i've highlighted the minimum (light) and maximum (dark) for dan (blue) and phil for genres with >1 movie (just realized i fucked up western, ignore that lmao)

phil has watched the most horror (64) and dan mostly sci-fi (53). interestingly, but presumably because of their love for these genres, each of their minimum scores went to these genres. if you watch a lot of one type of movie, you're gonna find the duds.

both of them liked christmas movies (tbh this was like, home alone, so), with their highest minimum and mean ratings being for that category (nostalgia, i assume because like, same). lowest mean scores were for superhero movies (both) and mystery (phil). for both of them, marvel was pretty all over the place (we'll get into that in a sec), so that's not super surprising.

their highest minimum scores were both given to war movies, which is a little surprising but this include movies like 1917 and dunkirk which are ~critically acclaimed~, so makes some sense. their minimum max scores went to westerns and mysteries for dan, and musicals, mysteries, and biopics for phil.

here are the histograms/bar charts for genres. these aren't the prettiest tbh, and i excluded some that had only one or two movies / weren't very interesting. without delving deep into the data, you can see how their preferences play out especially in horror and sci-fi, where phil has more highly-rated horror movies (partly because he's rated more) and dan has a lot of highly-rated sci-fi (but also low ratings). you also see how superhero movies are pretty middling -- there's almost a normal distribution! (not really, but sort of!). romance too. there's in general a lot of left skew here -- they like to rate movies highly.

final genre analysis is number of movies in one genre rated by one and not the other. i'm so sorry this table is so long.

i highlighted here the top three genres one has watched without the other. again we see phil likes his horror (and as i said in my last post, a fair amount of these movies were watched when dan was on tour, and this doesn't even include the guillermo del toro's cabinet of curiosities episodes he rated), but also thrillers (similar!) and comedies (which i get; i love to put a comedy on in the background). unsuprisingly, dan's watched a lot of sci-fi without phil, but also horror and comedy. in general, though, his genres are more distributed.

next, studios/franchises!

again, i've highlighted the maximum and minimum in each column, only for franchises. both of them really like ghibli, and dan likes disney more than phil (though i think this is missing big hero 6 now that i'm looking at it again, because dan rated that lower). that's theatre kid behavior: the 4.5 was beauty and the beast, all pixar and aladdin and so on were highly rated.

i fucked up the matrix somehow so just ignore that -- they both gave matrix sequels low scores

turning to franchises, phil is a harry potter hater (valid at this point). but loves lord of the rings. so does dan, though his dan's ratings actually skew pretty high for franchises in general (see: his maximum scores for each franchise are 4.5 or 5); he can pretend to be alternative or whatever but he's still a millennial at heart. their minimums minimums are both for star wars (sequels!) and marvel, which, valid. phil's highest minimum is bond (there were only a couple rated) and dan's is the hunger games, but unlike phil he only rated thg and catching fire, not either mockingjay.

and bar charts!

i only picked the most interesting ones here as well. marvel follows a similar distribution to the superhero movies, which, since they each only rated a couple dc movies (and i didn't include nolan's batmans), makes sense. again they both rate lotr highly, but the hobbit was low. the studio ones are less interesting imo because they skew so far left, but again: dan is such a disney kid.

that's all i have! i love this because dan, for all his faux cynicism, just rates movies so highly + it's so often the movies that don't fit his curated doomer persona but moreso the pooh one. and also phil expressing opinions! phil just watching a lot of horror!! i love it.

Dude I just found this video that's an iceberg of public access tv. In the first THREE MINUTES there's been:

A rude psychic who doesn't actually tell people's fortunes, instead hanging up on them if "their vibes are bad" (which applies to everyone)

A wholesome drag queen cooking show where all she cooks are bananas and she has paper mache tits

An anarchist punk who said "oops, my anarchy symbol!" when his desk-pounding led to his hand-drawn sign falling down

This is all in tier 1 btw, out of 6 tiers total. I think I just found my new favorite video lol

[wavetapper]

rhythm game mutuals what's your favourite objectively shitty chart

me personally as I have often said before I loooooove four leaf SPA

it has everything. the needlessly awkward patterns. the bizarre undercharting of like 90% of the song. the random RIDICULOUS double staircase density spike at 1:02. unironically the best mv they've ever done. the way it just randomly fucking ends in the middle of a guitar bit. she's everything to me

The reason top 40's station is the usual music fare in Steve's car is that whenever he says his favourite band is Genesis everyone always thinks he means, like, 1980's, Phil Collins Genesis. He doesn't! He means late sixties early seventies Peter Gabriel Genesis.

So when he says "yeah pretty sure there's a genesis tape in the deck" and the passenger will think "okay I can listen to that, they've got some bops"(true) but they hit play and are forced to recon with 23minute long, semi-expirimental song about the apocalypse.

Anyways Steve likes rock music and I think specifically he gets into early progressive rock lol

The top 40 is just the safest option

This might be controversial to some but... birth information is generally considered a public record.

Personally I feel a bit uncomfortable if I DON'T KNOW someone's age (AND I feel uncomfortable when people don't know MY age).

Like what are people going to do about the date of your birth? Absolutely nothing, they'll just know when's your birthday and how old are you.

When I was born, my birth info was in the local newspaper. And so what? Was I threatened because of it? Did I die because of it? No.

nothing makes me feel older than having to google what /pos /j /s and whatever else the cool kids say nowadays mean

today's star wars fic research itinerary:

scrounging through archive.org'd old starwars.com blogs and the magnificent source of once upon a galaxy's own archive of old hyperspace articles so i don't tear my hair out over d!canon's 'yeah so the huk war totally happened but we're just glossing over it for now' (the hyperspace articles are amazing, the whole despotica is there and i love it because it's a fucking fictional literature anthology that has the gffa equivalent of greek tragedy).

reading up on the vancouver principles, the un's commitments for protecting children during peacekeeping & preventing child soldiers because the whole 'yes we're sending you a fourteen year old to help command armies' is something the clone wars really glossed over and is definitely going on the 'ways to ruin palpatine's reputation' brainstorming chart.

on that note: the preservation management handbook because, yes, i need to re-learn cultural preservation & management bits. this temple is a millennium old and has bits that are probably thousands and thousands of years older, given that it's build over many older shrines and religious sites (not just counting the sith shrine). i could leave in the paragraph-long bit about knossos i just deleted, but i'll just put the link to the post where i rambled on about conservation from last year, just after that visit.

looking at the revenge of the sith opening scroll from so i can use the exact language grievous is referred to with in my fic because sometimes the force is enabling the cheat codes. yes there will be a '... grievously pressed by their fiendish leader ...' somewhere in here.
