I like how often Batman is still wearing the costume when he’s working at the computer in the cave, I’d be sitting there like Porky Pig without pants

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Resident Evil was a ton of fun, like Evil Dead where a hapless shmuck deals with one disgusting trial after another. Zach Cregger said he wanted to capture the vibe of playing the game instead of adhering to some convoluted plot. It's a shame it took Hollywood 30 years to discover ludonarrative

you know it just occurred to me a minute ago Putin probably has a patronymic so I looked it up and it's Vladimirovich. I wonder if he's called Vladminir Vladimirovich over there it's probably just the equivalent of calling our guy Mr Trump

Playing FF6 for the first time ever, as a teen I played ff7 and 10. Back then I liked Sephiroth because he was mysterious and tragic and cool but I think I prefer Kefka as a villain because he's a nasty little freak who tricks his way into power and that just works better

it almost gets lost among her many other virtues but Dolly Parton was a phenomenal singer, absolutely breathtaking skill. The way she would dance and trill around the notes she would flirt with the melody only someone supremely confident in their art can do that

Starcraft 1 was a really really good game like in terms of its story, the way it used the ludonarrative to tell the story, its art design. It was a gesamptkunstwerk. It's a shame that Blizzard all became dudebro sellouts and SC2 is a soulless copy because SC1 was special.

Nolan's Oddyssey was for all the fuss bout it pretty good, did all the Nolan-y stuff well, really captured how scary the open ocean is. It just needed an editor. The script had some real clunkers and if someone was around to tell Nolan he needed to make cuts it could've been great

This is the bit that convinced me
The knife had somehow fallen from the dead man's neck. Perhaps he had pulled it out in his agony. When I bent to pick it up, I discovered that the coin was still in my hand and thrust it into my pocket.
We believe that we invent symbols. The truth is that they invent us; we are their creatures, shaped by their hard, defining edges. When soldiers take their oath they are given a coin, an asimi stamped with the profile of the Autarch. Their acceptance of that coin is their acceptance of the special duties and burdens of military life-they are soldiers from that moment, though they may know nothing of the management of arms. I did not know that then, but it is a profound mistake to believe that we must know of such things to be influenced by them, and in fact to believe so is to believe in the most debased and superstitious kind of magic. The would-be sorcerer alone has faith in the efficacy of pure knowledge; rational people know that things act of themselves or not at all.

Email subject line: “the softener of evil hearts”

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

"Le Guin begins discussing the child in a register of detachment... The effect is disarming, in that it allows the reader to remain in the mindset that the Omelas child is something remote, to be thought of only as a variable in a thought experiment:" This is also a technique Bolaño excels at
