Draftkings and the prediction markets are the great feminist equalizer. Gen Z men are all losing 30% of their income gambling, so they end up having the same wealth as their female peers.

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios
You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at the studios.

I’d learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes. Like Joseph E. Levine, on “The Producers,” said, “The curly-haired guy—he’s funny looking. Fire him.” He wanted me to fire Gene Wilder. And I said, “Yes, he’s gone. I’m firing him.” I never did. But he forgot. After the screening of “Blazing Saddles,” the head of Warner Bros. threw me into the manager’s office, gave me a legal pad and a pencil, and gave me maybe twenty notes. He would have changed “Blazing Saddles” from a daring, funny, crazy picture to a stultified, dull, dusty old Western. He said, “No farting.” I said, “It’s out.”That’s probably the most famous scene in the movie, the campfire scene.

I know. He said, “You can’t punch a horse.” I said, “You’ll never see it again.” I kept saying, “You’re absolutely right. It’s out!” Then, when he left, I crumpled up all his notes, and I tossed it in the wastepaper basket. And John Calley, who was running [production at] Warner Bros. at the time, said, “Good filing.” That was the end of it. You say yes, and you never do it.

That’s great advice for life.

It is. Don’t fight them. Don’t waste your time struggling with them and trying to make sense to them. They’ll never understand.

Cosmic horror is great because it just kinda invents itself. Spend a bit too long thinking about the sun and you realize it’s a radioactive death ball larger than your mind has capacity to comprehend, so inherently dangerous that looking directly at it will harm you, and it’s just sitting there.

It really cannot be overstated that COVID happened, suddenly a bunch of absentee tech dads were forced to stay home where they saw their kids playing Animal Crossing while talking on Discord, then collectively decided to light a trillion dollars on fire to make Snow Crash IRL.

What's funny is that all these GenAI companies could actually just embed compression-resistant patterns into their output that would cleanly make their stuff identifiable, but they don't, because they don't want to, because they want their slop to make everything unusable.

I was trying to do some research in prep for Nolan's Odyssey next year, but this profile of Ulysses was just 700 pages about the sublime agony of being, the inherent fallibility of perception, and the tyranny of the British. Also my epub seems to be corrupted, a lot of punctuation is missing.

The Meetup app has badly fumbled their estimations on what their customers are willing to pay. Every group I've joined has opted to migrate off app as soon as they are sent a bill to continue operating after the initial trial.

If you watch a totally spoiler filled review of a movie on YouTube, add it to your watchlist, you can wait 6 months to a year before watching it so that you can forget all of the spoilers and it feels fresh. Been doing this with RLM movie recs for a while, with success.

Mike Duncan's Mars Revolution feels like a tie-in novel to a sci Fi video game, where the IP managers hired someone on the cheap to write the story of how humanity made the transition from our time up into the time where the video game takes place. But there is no cool video game.

A review of Wild at Heart (1990)
The last time I saw Wild at Heart was at a screening held in a church back in 2016. Packed house. But what on earth was everyone doing there? Why would so many people want to spend their evening watch...

You know the "🔹AI Overview" you get on Google Search? I discovered today that it's repeating as fact something I made up 7 years ago as a joke. "Kyloren syndrome" is a fictional disease I invented as part of a sting operation to prove that you can publish any nonsense in predatory journals...

For years, I avoided watching ARCANE on Netflix, because its associated with the worst video game ever made, but I finally gave it a chance earlier this year, and it is undeniable that the show is fantastic. If only it didn't have the terrible Imagine Dragons OP song, it would be a 10/10.

Every article about Red Lobster filing for bankruptcy is "ha ha endless shrimp, what did they think would happen" and then buried ten paragraphs down is the usual:
The following year, Darden sold Red Lobster to Golden Gate Capital, a private equity firm, for $2.1 billion. To help fund the deal, Red Lobster spun off its real estate assets in a transaction known as a sale leaseback agreement. Red Lobster had long owned its own real estate but would now be paying rent to lease its restaurants.
