Would have hit him with a second egg, but in France, one egg was un ouef.

For the past six weeks, an AI Facebook account has been pulling my history posts on Instagram and slopping out new captions, so I’ve been feeding it poison pills and its followers are having meltdowns in the comments. It’s been pretty spectacular.

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

But, weirdly, his twin brother has announced that he’ll be pursuing the seat to “stand shoulder to shoulder with Trump,” so…?
MAGA Republican Rep. Troy Nehls just announced he won't run for re-election in 2026.

So I guess they’re moving the Hollywood Sign to Burbank.

Whether this was random street crime or targeted political violence, I think it was bad for the president to unnecessarily put the National Guard in harm’s way like this. They simply don’t need to be there.

Okay, I’m calling it. The Hollywood “what if?” of all time is Sergei Eisenstein’s version of “War of the Worlds”

Decided to rewatch THE PARALLAX VIEW on my flight today, completely forgetting that there was a whole nerve wracking plane sequence.

The idea that I might be murdering ChatGPT every time I turn it off is the first thing I like about it.

Travel story. Christmas 2020. Caught an uber from Echo Park to LAX which led to a pretty great conversation for 90% of the ride. Then, when we hit the airport jam, the driver told me about the time she picked up a ghost who vaporized from her backseat.

Never has that last half-mile felt so long.
yes, hello, I would like to place an order for everyone’s funniest stories of holiday food-related family grudges / drama / chaotic incidents / lore

I feel like we need this

Had a bike accident in high school, end of freshman year, and spent all summer suck at home watching movies as escape. The work is my paying back a debt of gratitude.
What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

So Frankenstein was pretty great. I went in dragging my heels, saying that nobody needed another Frankenstein, and I was wrong. I needed another Frankenstein.

Donald Trump really is a walking paradox, because he's definitely cooked, but is somehow both rare and well-done.

Also, why is island in quotes? Is it not an island? Is it a peninsula? An isthmus? Do low tides reveal a land bridge like a shoal or something? Is it actually landlocked? Or in the middle of a dry lake? Next to some kind of fjord or lagoon? How does he remember it?

Okay, well JP Morgan died in 1913, so we can probably close the book on that one…

I placed a poison pill for the AI account that’s been ripping off my posts and it took it.

By even allowing the headline that Dems might cave, the party has squandered the best PR week it has had since November 2020.

God dammit, man. It’s been like twelve hours and I can’t stop thinking about Pluribus. How dare they make another great fucking show that makes me want to drop everything talk about it with everyone I know.
