One other thing: this is the first and only new and original idea turned into a franchise that we’ve had for a LONG time. Everything else has been adaptations of stuff or reboots with a built-in fan base. We don’t even know the lore & full story yet, as it won’t even be complete for two more movies.
At the expense of riling up a tired discourse, I do think Avatar actually lives in a bizarre in between of having no cultural impact and having a very large one, a-la Star Wars or essentially any of the other Cameron films. I don’t know what it is, but truly I just think lots of people like Cameron.

I should probably read the article but I will say that extensive research has shown that the root of obsessive porn consumption is discomfort with sex and sexuality, often stemming from negative messages received at home and in religious environments. Once that’s resolved, the obsession subsides.
“We often tell people that they don’t really have a porn problem,” the co-founder says. “They have a pain problem.”

I cannot think of *one* "here to stay" argument that survives the VCs running out of money to set on fire for chatbots in 1.5-2 years at most. Then the API prices 10x.
I have a list, and all the "here to stay" arguments fall to it:

Pandora opened the LLM box years ago, fam. It is not going back in the box. All you can do is put guardrails on it.

it is extremely funny that the American populace unironically treated the era of seeing of "help wanted" signs as a bad sign
I think the direction of travel matters. from 2020-22 we had a) the most generous welfare state in US history b) the tightest labor market in 60 years, and now both are gone and we are right back to ~2014 ish job market except interest rates are high

Gift link, probably the funniest thing the Wall Street Journal has done this year.
We Let AI Run Our Office Vending Machine. It Lost Hundreds of Dollars.
An AI agent ran a snack operation in the WSJ newsroom. It gave away a free PlayStation, ordered a live fish—and taught us lessons about the future of AI.

One of my favorite moments on BEAR, the new @fcommanders.bsky.social record! I got obsessed with fills that trade back and forth between tom/snare & kick+cymbal hits and this is that in its ultimate form.

No, Jews around the world don't suffer because of the actions of the government of Israel. Jews around the world suffer because antisemites use the actions of the government of Israel to justify attacks on Jews. And if you make the same association, you're also an antisemite.

Who in the USA gov runs the program?
R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

The Dann Huff record I had the distinct honor of playing on is finally streaming! I missed that it happened last month (was on tour with my band, you know, priorities) but I’m intensely stoked that those who don’t Bandcamp or do physical media can enjoy it. Super proud to be on this album.

“This is how guys have fun” - Candace Owens
Support from Trump administration officials played a crucial role in the release of Andrew Tate from Romania, where he is accused of rape and coercing women into pornography, a New York Times investigation found.
How Andrew Tate, Manosphere Star Accused of Rape and Trafficking, Was Freed
Barred from leaving Romania, Andrew Tate courted powerful figures on the American right, from Tucker Carlson to Barron Trump. Then an extraordinary order let him go.

This is it. I see people saying crazy stuff on here like comparing anti-AI folks to fascists and it’s absolutely valid that people hate it and we afraid of it. What did anyone expect?
I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

Happy two months to the work of my life!
BEAR has been out for 2 months today! Thank you for listening to our new album! We appreciate all the shares, comments, radio plays, playlist adds, & love you’ve shown this body of work. Here’s some footage from tacking the record at GodCity in Salem MA w/ Kurt Ballou & vocal tracking in Nashville!

Two weeks ago I said that there were likely millions of uninstalled Blackwell GPUs sitting in warehouses as there is neither the data center capacity nor the power to turn them on. Michael Burry is looking into it and it looks like he’s got evidence I’m right.

I’m what you’d call an “A list” musician here in Nashville, TN. What I do is under threat from AI, & it’s finally bridging a gap between us & indie musicians (that never should have existed). Marc Ribot and John Medehski have started a great new group to address this & we made a statement this week.

It makes a lot of sense when you consider that Nuzzi works for a magazine and RFK works for people who are stealing children and murdering fishermen.
Not to defend Olivia Nuzzi, who broke every rule in journalism and promoted a charlatan to his current position. But it's incredibly telling that she will lose her job, but RFK Jr. gets to stay in his job despite the reports of his drug use, his affairs and his defenestrating of public health.
