i love when subscription services send me those coy emails like ‘the price of your subscription is changing.’ yeah? it’s changing? in what way? what sort of personal growth will this already expensive subscription undergo?

Nic Cage:
He continued: “How do you survive AI? Amazon is a very AI friendly company to the tune of 50 billion dollars invested to OpenAI. I am not an AI friendly actor. I didn’t sign the waiver to let them use AI on Spider-Noir. It’s kind of like I’m probably not going to be working with that studio again. But that’s OK. So I got to get with these young directors who are Gen Z and they’re going at it their own way, whether it’s through the YouTube culture or whatever it is. They’re doing it from scratch and by hand. I want to get with that.”

I despise how desensitised I've become to the American Horrors - how a headline like this elicits a sigh and a "what can you do" shrug, not the full body revulsion it deserves.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

A two panel meme of the Simpsons. The top panel has kirk van houten gesturing to a race care bed. The text reads "im an AI guy. How many local models do YOU run?" The bottom panel is homer with a pope hat photoshopped onto his head. The bottom text reads "I run the catholic church."

I've had this stupid joke in my head for the past 3 weeks, I had to put it into drawing
Theatrical poster for "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me," except the portrait of Laura Palmer is replaced with a Walkling from the game Big Walk, and the film name is replaced with "Big Walk with Me"

Love this so much! Saw it back when I only knew Richard E Grant from Withnail & I and LA Story and then BAM - here's Giles Redferne chewing salt into his whip and scenery at the same time!

The great thing about a new @heavyweight.bsky.social episode is the reminder that, in comparison, everything I do on radio is a piece of shit. Also the crying in the gym - that's a close second.

My two lads are living the indoor lifestyle and only ever out when they're on the leads - it's the only way I know they and the local native wildlife are both safe! Salem (on the left) was a rescue stray who came to me with a really nasty injury from his semi-feral life.

If you claim to have never heard Crazy Frog’s “Axel F,” it says more about you than it does Mr. Frog. This about virtue signaling that you are better than entire genres of music, that your friends are not in the custom ringtone game.
