Trump using badly made AI slop to show him shitting on protesters is everything you need to know about these assholes’ need to reshape reality to what their ego can handle, lack of media literacy and attitude to art. Pls don’t share it. Fuck them. Ignore it.

A lot of centrist commentators who genuinely got worked up about the unforgivably insulting nature of "cling to guns and religion" or "basket of deplorables" are weirdly silent about Trump portraying himself as literally shitting on American cities

Increasingly convinced that the vast majority of Generative AI will become the 2020's equivalent of those massive CD-ROMs of clip art the worst people in your office would litter presentations and documents with.

Personally I prefer a society whose members feel some pressure to signal virtue over one where vice is continually rewarded

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1673

Look out for Airplane, The Naked Gun, Top Secret, Ruthless People and more, as writer/producer/director David Zucker joins the Film Stories podcast. filmstories.co.uk/podcast/podc...

Gotta find amusement where you can when the insomnia kicks in.

I love this image.

In 1982, #Tron’s CG visual effects were so new that they completely confused Academy voters. Animator Bill Kroyer recalls what happened. filmstories.co.uk/news/why-tro...

AI HUCKSTER: "i built you a machine that reads books for you." ME: "can you build me a machine that unloads the dishwasher for me so *i* can read a book?"

How could you possibly choose?!

The right complain British culture is unrecognisable now but I’m sure I was laughing at the same Young Tories in 1988

I know this is all bullshit because I can’t buy war insurance for work travel to Chicago.

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Sounds apocalyptic but is actually absolutely true

Asking artists for use permission would kill Limewire

Kemi Badenoch blames those crossing borders for our problems. It’s a lie aimed to distract. The real issue is a system protecting the super-rich while nurses & carers can’t make ends meet. Tax wealth fairly, fund public services properly. This is how we give Britain hope again.

Derek Cianfrance's Roofman is the family Christmas hit you didn't know October needed. Review for Film Stories: filmstories.co.uk/reviews/roof...

Hyped to fly to Dubai, pay £300 for a ticket, and watch Angus O'Brien, three Argentine wingers and a bunch of Japanese lads nobody has heard of play a team solely comprised of Roger Tuivasa-Sheck and Harry Mallinder.

Reminder that if you can't - or don't have to - pedal it, it's not a bicycle, it a motorcycle.

Maybe I should make this my pinned post

How fucking embarrassing is it for the entire political establishment that they're being outflanked on the left by MICHAEL FUCKING HESSELTINE

It me

Sometimes it takes about 45 years to see the darkness in something, even when you've loved it for all that time. To wit: Last Train To Clarksville by The Monkees; just hit me how dark those lyrics were coming out in 1966 when young me were being shipped off to Vietnam. All couched in a sweet ditty

The Philosophy Of Sidesteps

Just one shot from last night's incredible Film Stories preview screening of #ISwear in #Birmingham. This is the packed house giving director Kirk Jones a spontaneous round of applause at the end of his Q&A. Region screenings and film events forever, please. Plotting the next few already...

When you interview Malcolm McDowell, you're supposed to ask him about A Clockwork Orange. Instead, I asked him about ITV's Crossroads. (Suspect @simonmayo.bsky.social might slightly approve!) Video and audio versions here: filmstories.co.uk/podcast/podc...

Your semi-regular reminder that one of the sweetest songs of all time was gifted to the reformed members of The Monkees by Ben Gibbard of Death Cab For Cutie - and thank you Ben, because wow. youtu.be/FfruDTmFDUA?...

The "AI" responses that Google gives about me and my work are consistently error-prone, which I know because I am me. If I know Google's "AI" responses give incorrect answers about things I know about, I can't trust it to give correct answers about things I don't know. So, no, I don't use it.

There's ALWAYS a tweet pt. 23439682328710

BREAKING: If you thought digital IDs and age verification weren't exciting enough, the government is now planning to introduce facial recognition cameras across the entire country... that it can tie to your digital ID. Isn't this exciting? x

DR. JOHN, the night tripper - GRIS-gris (1968) I don’t think I’ve ever listened to Dr. John before so couldn’t figure out why this swampy blend of funk & psychedelia seemed so familiar. On the third track, it hit me - Dr. Teeth from the Muppet Show! Which I mean in a good way. #nowspinning #vinyl

Tony Blair actually seems to be morphing into Steve Bell's caricature of him. Jesus.

Migrants need to prove their worth to live here really sends shivers down my spine, it’s grotesque language

Michael Kurinsky, the director Scoob: Holiday Haunt, on Warner Bros boss David Zaslav's claim it took 'courage' to scrap the film. filmstories.co.uk/news/scoob-h...

The implication that the England Women's Rugby team aren't worth every single penny they're paid and more is as depressing as it is wrong. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? Is selling out Twickenham somehow a fluke? STFU.
