Ah yes, but you see, they like the REAL Homelander - the mythic Homelander that doesn't exist in the show or comics, which were made to slander the actually Based Homelander.

still so funny to me so many far right people heavily personally identified with homelander, a character who was only ever calm when he was able to drink breastmilk of women in his life and act like a literal baby with them

i don't want to be based and correct for the next century of AI. i want the AI bubble to pop so i can buy computer parts this year!!!

So, a quick story. I have been at @comicpalooza.bsky.social, been swamped with long lines almost the entire weekend so far, and there was this very nice gentleman named Jin (not sure of the spelling). He came the first day and said he was bringing books the next day to get signed. 1/

did not expect to spend my sunday recording and editing a video application for the Grimes AI Is Evil Bootcamp

It's extremely annoying that it took this long for economists to realize the obvious, which is that neoliberalism causes a bunch of wholly unnecessary misery and no one should listen to Larry Summers and his blithe disregard for human suffering and agency. Alas, we're here now. Do better!

Blue Kindness High:

The most thoughtful negative review of OBSESSION I’ve seen has, as its central critique, that the film is too protestant… and now that I think about it, though I love the movie, I’m inclined to agree…….

We gotta cool it on reactions in text messages. Everyone needs to stop heart-ing everything. A thumbs up is more than enough for most circumstances. You do not *love* that I am on my way, you are acknowledging you’ve seen my message

Most analyses of LLM tells focus on syntax (“not x, but y”) but at least in LLM fiction, the more glaring tells seem to incoherence at level of phrases (e.g., nonsense metaphors) and in the larger aesthetics of the narrative (e.g., genre, intended atmosphere or tone, narrative signposting, etc.).

Oh wow from which country

When politicians say they can't hold corporations accountable, remember: they can. They just choose not to.

Interviewer: Mandalorian and Grogu is about fathers and sons, and the bonds between them. How did you make sure that played out over the course of the running time? Pedro Pascal, who worked on the movie for half an hour three years ago, taste testing five different chocolate bars: great question

Modern moviemaking is wild because you think about things like Pedro Pascal worked on The Mandalorian and Grogu probably a few days, a week max, and now he's on a worldwide tour with hundreds of people asking him about crafting his character while eating chicken and taste testing hot sauces.

This works flawlessly as a silent film

This is the definitive version of INTO THE UNBEING. Oversized. We went through every chapter and reworked the lettering, colours, etc. Packed with bonus material. We put a ton of work into it!

Good news! My gf got an offer and starts her new job at the end of the month!! But the bad news is she likely won’t be getting paid for a minute and I still need help covering the room for the upcoming week. I need to raise $900 by Friday. Any bit helps!

Bumping again. I have 48 hours to get these funds together so I can cover the room for next week. It’s a remote gig so having the room settled will make actually working it considerably easier than trying to do it day by day at higher cost. Anything helps, even reposting!

This segment was already perfect but then I thought "Should it be set to Laura Palmer's theme?"

Ian is not a Villain in OBSESSION. dude gives Standard Good Dating Advice to Bear, is gentlemanly discrete about past hookups, and mostly just doesn't want people to make Trivia Night weird. It's all he has!!! He just wants Trivia Night to be normal!!!!!

all this odyssey-posting has got me thinking about this again

The right wing freakout about The Odyssey is kind of amazing. Now they're all mad that Odysseus doesn't go snorkeling off a yacht.

weirdly enough, OBSESSION is also kind of about AI Psychosis.

Very gratifying to walk out of the movie into the restroom and hear two dudes talking about the same problem you had with a move lol.

Had no idea there was a new McDonagh. Hell yeah

emails.

do we think that Trump had ever even heard the name “Thucydides” before that moment

I worked on this game for three years. It'd mean a lot to me if you checked it out.
