this was a really powerful approach to questioning noem—bringing the actual people impacted by her reign of terror. from her perch it's easy to see these cases as abstractions but she needs to be confronted with them at every turn.

From the company that forced Congress to change public domain laws comes free use of all their characters to do whatever the fuck you want. Thank god that dead kid doesn't have Spider-Man on his tombstone though. That could have been terrible.

After ChatGPT appeared to validate a man's suspicion that his 83-year-old mother may have been part of a conspiracy against him, he killed her. OpenAI bears responsibility for her death because the company rushed out “a defective product that validated a user’s paranoid delusions,” a lawsuit says.

I think Tarantino can be an interesting filmmaker, but I've wanted him to shut up with his "master of all cinema history" bullshit for years. It delights me that going after Matthew Lillard is what finally got movie fans to collectively tell him to fuck off.
Matthew Lillard reacts to Quentin Tarantino's comments about him
"Quentin Tarantino says he doesn't like me as an actor ... it hurts your feelings, it fucking sucks, and he wouldn't say that to Tom Cruise ... or a top-line actor ... It's humbling, and it hurts"

I'm just so sad, man. I grew up on WB. I feel the way towards the Looney Tunes the way some feel about The Muppets. Those shows and characters raised me. Cartoon Network raised me. WB kids raised me. I hope they make it to the other side of this into a world with real antitrust enforcement.

Chris Chalk has been one of my favorite people to watch on screen since Gotham. Then he just absolutely blew my mind in Perry Mason. Now he's killing it in Welcome to Derry! He's an absolute force!!
There's a big reveal or two in tonight's It: Welcome to Derry, but what struck me most is that Chris Chalk, Taylour Paige, and Jovan Adepo are so good that the grown-ups hold their own as screen presences against the adorable kids and the killer clown. (Gift link)
