Not a movie, but season 3 of Enlightened. This would require Diane Ladd and James Rebhorn (possibly others) to not be dead, so I'd also make it 2013 again through science or magic
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

If you turn this off - as I tried to do - it removes your ability to sort mail into promotions, social media, et cetera. Basically coercing you to train their bullshit A.I. by removing features you had previous access to. Bad company.
If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

Counted 3 lower-third ads for "Wicked" on the first 11 minutes of tonight's St. Denis Medical. In a month with a metric ton of "Wicked" synergy across the adver-tainment spectrum that would send Jack Donaghy to Erection Cove, these (essentially) pop-up ads are somehow the most intrusive and annoying

If you feel overwhelmed, remember that you can still make a difference doing little things. A compliment or word of encouragement, a tip to a favorite takeout place, a donation to a local charity, an email to your favorite author, time with a pet, a walk outside, or a phone call to a loved one.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

Last summer, Trey Yesavage was still pitching in college. Tonight, he pitched seven innings of one-run, three-hit ball on the road at Dodger Stadium in Game 5 of the World Series.
He becomes the first pitcher ever to strike out 12 and walk zero in a World Series game.

I can't believe we live in a reality where we can earnestly saying things like "uhh well I assume the Pope is a Bears fan"
This is a real: Pope Leo XIV was gifted a Buffalo Bills jersey.
The Diocese of Buffalo said Bishop Fisher met with the Pope on Monday to discuss the ongoing bankruptcy filing, among other issues.
Pope Leo was said to have "expressed his gratitude for this symbol of hometown pride." #billsmafia

remote work is like birth control or UBI atp where there’s overwhelming research consensus they improve quality of life for people they apply to, yet access is impeded or blocked by the ruling class because the thought of marginalized ppl having rich full lives makes steam come out their ears
2. Rolling Stone is owned by a large media conglomerate, which is ending remote work across its brands.
My home is Portland, Oregon, ~1,000 miles from the nearest office, so this marks the end of the line for me at RS.
