I'm sad to say that since leaving Twitter/X my sales for live shows have dropped quite a lot - it turns out that even though it's a dreadful place it was still useful for getting the word out about events. So any shares / RTs of my posts about live shows are hugely appreciated!

On his decision to end $500M worth of research on mRNA vaccines, RFK Jr. said: “The the data show these vaccines fail to protect effectively against upper respiratory infections like COVID and flu”. These vaccines saved 3.2M lives in the U.S. He is running a disinformation op against Americans.

AI once again taking credit for human work. Oh, the humanity!

So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence. If true, then fucking yikes.

This is fascinating—canonically, Clark Kent moved to Metropolis because he'd be able to be of more use to the world living in a big city than living in a small town.

@trailersfromhell.bsky.social Dipping into various old eps, like Strange Darling, and Josh has mentioned several stories that he can’t say on the air, so to speak(Schrader/Pryor, his w Billy Friedkin) How about a special paid ep of all those stories, with proceeds going to a film and/or LA charity?

We literally invented magic. You are reading this because we commanded fire, metal, earth and glass to do our bidding. We did not and do not need generative AI. It is not the culmination of technology, it is the consumption of our Soul.

40 years ago today THE BLACK CAULDRON was released in theaters, marking a low point in the Bronze Age of Walt Disney Animation Studios. Despite its beautiful animation & rich Lloyd Alexander source material, its box office failure caused this underrated film to be buried for over a decade.
