that’s not that impressive. there’s plenty of movies I’ll probably think about for the rest of my life. I’ll be thinking about Hoodwinked for the rest of my life.

Technology enthusiasts severely overestimate the average person’s desire or willingness or capacity to build and use AI agents. I understand some work roles that could mandate or encourage it but that is no way a tech revolution. Agents are best for structured, clearly delineated tasks.

If you've ever wondered what AC Slater is up to aside from being MAGA, turns out he's posting weird AI fetish content about his niece....?

Can't stop thinking about Pattinson as Chris Hansen reciting the predator chat logs as a way to pump himself up before confronting the guys. God that's good Psychological Sickness Cinema

Psychologists explain how to work through the bigotry that made you claim never to have heard "Choosin' Texas" and could be undermining your career Not knowing Ella Langley's record-setting debut song is "worse than bringing 10 iced coffees stacked in a pyramid to the interview" say some recruiters

Just saw someone walk into the Apple Store carrying a raccoon. Like a pet raccoon, a live raccoon. No carrying case. Walking into the Apple Store at North and Clybourn. With a raccoon

If Obama had nationalized Sufjan Stevens' 50 states project we wouldn't be in this mess now. Don't ask me to enumerate all the steps that happened in between but I'm sure this would be a butterfly effect type thing

It's impossible for a 21st century TV list to be interesting because everyone already knows what the good shows are, there is nothing on such a list that can drive curiosity or learning about new stuff.

I mostly feel like I’m terrible at my job but the one thing I am indisputably good at is giving hammy introductions to programs. It makes me feel like I should have gone into standup. The rush of getting laughs from a crowd

Not to be annoying but I've never liked that this guy's coffee is visibly Starbucks-branded. Why not just give the model a non-branded cup
