Jonathan Rinderknecht, a white man, was charged with starting the Palisades Fire. But on X, the company's news summary tab shows a photo of a black man.

Jim Lee openly disparaging AI in no way guarantees anything, no one knows what the future of AI is and no one knows who will be in charge at DC Comics down the line. But I think it's important that a popular artist publicly shot AI down. Fans and artists ignorant of or using AI need to hear this.

It is my opinion that Broadway has hurt theater as an art more than anything.

Have fun with Back to the Future: The Musical, Mikhail, I think that's more your speed.

TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it

One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway
I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way.
What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money.
Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight.
To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.

I was gonna say any of the Spanish street names, but a lot of people who grew up here will correct your Spanish pronunciation.

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

It's actually easy to turn your back from your racist past. Not a lot of people know it, but Adolf Hitler performed the most successful anti fascist action of all time. It was the last thing he ever did.

This is the same Prosecutor that tried to charge a guy with terrorism because he was handing out masks to protesters.

Maybe we hold off on taking his word.

Here’s the music video btw. Bro was listening to a song about lighting joints & getting high & now it’s being used against him as evidence to show he started one of the biggest fires in recent history. The media is buying this?

This person happened to watch a music video that had things burning in it, he walked up a mountain path & saw a fire, tried to call 911 to alert about a fire, then 7 days later the fire breaks out.

Given Essayli’s recent record, media should be highly sus of anything he says
