Perfect posting from Tim Heidecker, 24 hours apart.

What an incredible experience, getting to perform at the Riyadh Comedy Festival. I left feeling grateful and humbled by his majesty's generosity. I'll never forget this memorial experience and all the fun we had. Hope to do it again soon.

upon further reflection, there is a small part of me that feels I sent the wrong message, regarding the Riyahd Comedy Festival last night. While, I do think it's important for comedy to have the opportunity to thrive in all parts of the globe, there are some aspects of The Royal Highness, King Salmon and his leadership in the region that i don't agree with entirely, but it's a different culture when it comes to freedom and rights and I gotta respect that we are all different and have different values. My manager is now investigating the possibility of donating some of my fee to a charity for Vetrans of War.

god i remember thinking the same thing when he had his new japan run in 2019-ish, and he was carting around shota umino as his protege.

there's this one pic of him from 2021 where he looks like the coolest motherfucker out there, then shota went and paid tribute a year later

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

let’s rock dude. PACIFISM THE MANGAAA RAHHHHHHHHH

page from Makoto Yukimura’s manga, Vinland Saga.

panel one: baby thorfinn answers his father thors’ question (not pictured: “who are your enemies?”). he’s hunched and blushing out of embarrassment. “h-halfdan… maybe…”

panel two: close up of thors’ hand gripping thorfinn’s little shoulder

panel three: thors holds thorfinn by the shoulder with one hand, while his other hand grips a dagger thorfinn found by the blade. thors replies first in bolded text: “you have no enemies.” normal: “no one… has any enemies.”

panel four: a close-up of thors’ hand gripping the blade with blood trickling down. thors continues. “there is no one… that you should hurt.”

But I also understand the frustration…

Cause people using AI to tell them what to make for dinner is wild. Get a cookbook, hoe.

TAIGASTYLE @theleemoriarty.bsky.social · 2d

Then there’s some people that don’t even know how to tell what’s ai and what isn’t on top of the fact that it’s getting harder to spot at first. My dad sends me at least one ai video a month and he doesn’t know til I tell him. He’s 50.

He knows I don’t f with it and he’s not doing it on purpose.
