Bizarre how most #Writing #Advice is flat-out awful Consider storytelling as wildly overrated; that it's not a matter of 'advice' but about those things which more *truly* matter - simple and direct (human/e) communication about our inhuman condition..

#HorrorMovie #Idea: "Cloud Red" - set at a giant, labyrinthine A_I Data Center with the physical structure itself as the main protagonist; it starts actively reaching out into the wider community to quietly disrupt anything preventing it's existence and subsequent expansion 🤖☎️🌐

Sheeeeeeeee-it. If only Brian Tyree Henry been cast *as* #Batman - instead of just another pale, professionally broody cliche. Now there's a #movie I'd watch

Brian Tyree Henry has been cast in ‘THE BATMAN: PART 2’. Revealed by Matt Reeves.

LOLtube chuds spittin' stats like they got a Harvard Economics degree? A performative act signalling one is a 'proud member' (dick-head) of teh 'winning side' (White Capitalism); for them any ongoing negative #Social impact of the #GamesIndustry as a greed-obsessed psychotic w/hole is irrelevant

i like to think of the truer hallucination as being the very notion that #techbros display any scientifically detectable signs of human #intelligence whatsoever - hence the term 'human artificial intelligence' or hai: "intelligence which only *appears* intelligent but is in fact merely fake"

just more proof of alt-right gaming as untreated mental illness what can be offered one wonders other than ceaseless ridicule
