Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

Enjoying 'Death by Lightning' on Netters. Michael Shannon at his most restrained. Matthew Macfadyen as his most unhinged. Bradley Whitford snarks like no-one's business while Nick Offerman chews the scenery. Shines a spotlight on the corruption and violence of that previous gilded age. Recommended.

Zohran Mamdani resembles the ex-London leader Ken Livingstone in many ways. It means he'll likely do great things for NYC and be re-elected. However, local gains might not necessarily translate into national success, and indeed at a national level portions of his party might run against him.

Okay, I'm biased because my wife is translating the comic for Titan Books, but 'Sanda' (boy turns into Santa Claus in a Japan in the midst of demographic collapse) is the wildest, horniest, most messed-up show of the season. Studio Science Saru are knocking it out the park.

The last few days I've been bingeing episodes of 'Sutherland's Law', a middlebrow '70s BBC Scotland drama about a highland procurator fiscal who solves crimes. With the excellent Iain Cuthbertson, supported by Gareth Thomas, it's just solid throughout and stands up 50 years on.

So far I have found two useful and practical demi-legal applications of AI:
(a) Summarising TTRPG game sessions. (The totally legal one.)
(b) Creating pitch decks with images and graphics for internal use from company design documentation. (The quasi-legal one.)

There was a time when Disney and Warners were probably making as many cartoons for the military as commercially. Here's a Chuck Jones from the mid-'50s encouraging Air Force men to re-up.
