Thanks, Vonnegut. 💜

my gf works corporate and is on a training about AI and there's a word cloud for "what do you use AI for." the largest word by far is "Nothing" and the trainer is PISSED

Koji Suzuki—the intensely talented and influential author of RING, SPIRAL, DARK WATER, and many other novels and short stories—has passed way at the age of 68. Too young. An enormous loss. The reverberations of his fiction will continue to be felt for years to come.

no i'm not bc i don't use that shit. skill issue

my job is laptop but I don't fully understand laptop so my daily life is full of small mysteries and this keeps me beautifully naive as like a foal

As we're walking out of the Mario movie, our 3yo pulls at my arm excitedly, "Dada! Dada! I saw a poster for a movie WE HAVE TO SEE!!" ...Of COURSE it's that one. Of course.

What is he, Punxsutawney Phil from hell??

We choose to go to the moon, not because it is easy but because you've seen the other shit this country spends tax money on. At least going to the moon is cool.

unfortunately “it's all corrupt girl” will be entering the lexicon

I think stuff like "wow there are things in here that I didn't think about at the time, like the racist names and the hook nosed bankers" is a good thing to think through. but "I always thought they were stupid" no one cares. I don't like all sorts of books that other people like.

I dunno I think "were Harry Potter books good" is a completely irrelevant question to the moment. like, you don't need to avoid them because they're artistically bad, you need to avoid them because there are concrete, specific ways that interacting with them funds Nazi stuff

OpenAI news: 1. Sora is dead. May the memory of its four-month existence as a copyright infringement machine be a blessing. 2. Disney is pulling out of its billion-dollar investment in OpenAI entirely. Turns out when you try to serve AI slop on a product people pay for, no one wants it.

I know it's the absolute smallest of problems, but something about the airports 'halting wait time reporting' has me so beyond pissed off. Can't figure out if I should be there at 6am, 3am, or the night before at this rate

Perfect

IM UNWELL

I would need a full jury instructions conference on award criteria in order to vote between I Lied To You and Golden

Officially made a goal to help with moving costs. I'm being generous in my estimate to make sure I have some wiggle room since money for both me and winnie has been tight. Anything helps <3 ko-fi.com/charliearlet... #mutualaid #helpsky #TransCrowdfund

Aural horror is in the news with Undertone out this weekend! If you need something to tide you over 'til you make it to the theater, why not give "Twigs" a shot? #KBA1280 #whatistwigs #horrorshort

Today is my birthday, but the only thing I ask for is: if you have ANY money you can spare, could you send it to my friend Cade and their girlfriend Winnie (post below)? Please help this trans couple catch a break 🥺 Cade's ko-fi 🐁 ko-fi.com/charliearlet

me and my partner just found out that we are getting kicked out of the place we just moved into, after wiping our accounts to pay rent. if you can support us in any way we would really appreciate it ko-fi.com/wimbostratus

schools are never valid military targets, on or off base if someone bombed a DoD school in Okinawa and killed a bunch of American 4th graders, that would be a war crime. The murder of Iranian schoolchildren is a war crime.

Regret to announce that we’ve reached Wrong Coat season. Every coat you wear from now til mid April will be The Wrong Coat for the weather

DESIRE LEAVES A MARK - select theatres 3.27 - VOD April. See our trans supernatural romance. I put my whole heart into this movie🥹🐍❤️‍🔥

it's all just art. "porn" is just art that makes you horny, in precisely the way that "horror" is art that makes you scared and "metroidvania" is art that makes you write video essays

Sounding like a positive start, thanks entirely to the pressure campaign. Keep that pressure on, cancel nitro.

Can't say enough how much of a joy it was to see Alysa Liu win gold today. Women's sports are so often centered on control. To watch a young athlete embody freedom and strength and come out on top is so special

Grief is so fucked up, what do you mean I can't send him a link to the 'Directed by David Lynch' thong I found on Facebook Marketplace

Best advertisement I’ve seen so far at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival

The PMDD and Zoloft fever dream combo had me waking in a pool of sweat from a dream where Manny (of Diary of a Wimpy Kid fame) served as a sort-of Charon figure for temporary excursions through literal Hell

Remember that time I watched 5 Saw films in a row for charity? Well we're back...to watch all SIX Final Destination films. Yes, even the bad one(...s?). The event raises money for an amazing local food bank and shelter — please consider sponsoring me, donating, or sharing! Link in bio!

a flop vacation is kind of funny. I went to relax and was an insomniac for a solid week, lost my mind, everything went wrong, came back to the airport looking nasty as hell fhskfjjsjdjdjd

I took bsky off my phone, and lost internet for a bit, so I now present posts I wrote in my notes add during a full day movie marathon. Please clap.

ever wanted to go to jail on a civil case?

look, the right wing's fever dream of the left is simply not true. no elected official no matter what their political persuasion is gong to go on TV and urge their constituents to read some hot man-on-man smut [aide whispers in my ear] wait what

in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today
