Who are all these grinning white people laughing at Trump's vile racism? h/t to @helenkennedy.bsky.social for pulling together a list. Shame on each & every one of them.

Just off the top of my head, Carol Kane gets you Annie Hall, Dog Day Afternoon, Scrooged, Carnal Knowledge, Princess Bride, Joe vs. the Volcano, Ishtar, Addams Family, Kimmy Schmidt and Taxi ...

Not saying she's the obvious #1 pick but she's an underrated heavyweight for something like this
This is a Bill Simmons game, but you’re stranded on a desert island. You can only have one actor’s filmography. You get it all, including cameos. But just the one performer.

I’m taking Cate Blanchett: Talented Mr. Ripley, LOTR, Life Aquatic, Black Bag, Tár, Ponyo, Hot Fuzz, Eyes Wide Shut, Thor

my “AI is over” anecdote is that my wife was hired over the summer to write scripts for a big tech company explaining how to use their AI tools and after many rounds of revisions, the latest notes said “we’re finding a lot of AI fatigue among our users” and to remove all references to AI
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

Yes, it eats history.
Jesus Christ, the "remastered" Beatles Anthology documentary they re-released is filled with AI slop. Look at John and Paul's faces, and the "T" on Beatles.

The current wave of extreme-right in Germany is using the term as well. Be suspicious of anyone throwing it around.
A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have made a HUGE breakthrough towards a UNIVERSAL antiviral. By targeting sugar molecules found on the surface of many viruses that SHARE structural similarities, they identified FOUR compounds that successfully BLOCKED infections from SEVEN different viruses.

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.

I really can't stress how important it is for progressive and leftists to contend for school, library, water, etc etc boards. Hyper local involvement in our communities where we can actually influence lives.

TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.

TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

Alien and The Thing are weirdly very good for this (not a dig, I love them both, which is why they are what I put on when I don't know what else to watch). Starship Troopers has also recently entered this category.

it's not for everyone and I wouldn't judge anyone who didn't like it but damn, we had such a fun time at Bugonia. It's great on a big screen and I'd love to watch it again
