Titan A.E., Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Treasure Planet all coming out in the same 3 year span and all three being box office disappointments independently of the quality of the movies is just real fascinating to me.

My guy, you occupy the same archetypal position as someone, but it’s Ozymandias

People doing this and constantly shouting “WHAT? SORRY I DIDN’T GET THAT.” Indeed you did not, madam, because you’re trying to have a conversation with a tinny speaker and bellowing at it in a noisy public place. Obviously you’re very annoying and have no manners, but also it clearly doesn’t work

"Maaaaaaaa, Rennes-le-Château! The French occultists know the secrets of the Saint Graal, or should I say Sang Real?"

think i've figured out what bothers me most about current ugly cinematography trend, moreso than low contrast or washed out colors it's that you often can't figure out where the light comes from, even when you *see* the lightsource it creates this floaty, uncanny look that makes everything look fake

I, uh, already wrote Heated Chivalry but the publisher demanded I call it something else so if you like jousting and action/suspense and knights who kiss:

Happy International Non-Binary People's Day!

It's #portfolioday I would love for people to ask me to do stuff for them, but I also have some feelings about work today

The Orange Rejection

If students are simply uninterested in the core bargain of a class like this, it’s hard to know what to do. You teach the material because you think it’s important they know it; they don’t give a shit, but want the credential; and the university wants their money. Your main option is “pretend”.

“AI IS NOT A PEDAGOGICAL CRISIS, IT’S A LABOR CRISIS.” I want to tattoo this on my forehead.

Hey, so, stop whatever you're doing right now and ensure that a) you know where your water mains are and b) you are able to easily turn them off. Because if you don't know, and your landlord doesn't know, and then you find it after an hour but the valve is jammed, you're a bit fucked.

The thing about AI is that they want us to believe that this sort of just passable BS is adequate and suffices when it sucks and does not. In pretty much every case.

I have checked what the Japanese media are saying and there seem to be competing names for the man. Some are going with ゴミ箱伯爵 (Gomibako Hakushaku - Count Trashcan) whilst others are using the katakana that you have for foreign loan-words and opting for ビンフェイス伯爵 (Binfeisu Hakushaku).

sometimes it's 2 *smart* bitches telling each other "Exactlyyyyy"

as a childe i was required to know things that happened in the 1970s to understand referential pop culture and i revisit the TRAUMA of that DISGUSTING and SHABBY TREATMENT upon my youngers who DO NOT understand what my FUCKING DEAL IS
