I have a lot of humility when it comes to trying to understand political issues. I see all of the things for ex happening re: AI & I simply DO NOT have the capacity or bandwidth to do any deep dives. I have to rely on others who share my values to give me the cliff notes. Multiply this by 100 issues

Last time I had jury duty it was for a Tesla lawsuit. One of the things that came up repeatedly in selection was if you call something Autopilot, folks are gonna think it's autopilot.
Anyone that mentioned that idea were excused.

It remains to be seen what Netflix's plans are for Warner Bros but my money is Netflix just in it for the IP and has no intention on releasing movies theatrically, something they've never been prevented from.

All media mergers end up hurting writers, actors, directors, and everyone else who works in the industry. Executives, assistants, caterers, teamsters, everyone. Fewer companies means fewer jobs, period.

The masked burglar broke into the closed Virginia liquor store early on Saturday and hit the bottom shelf. The bandit was something of a nocturnal menace: bottles were smashed and alcohol pooled on the floor.
The suspect acted like an animal because, in fact, he's a raccoon.
