When they announced her I was like, "Oh good! It's... someone. I will pretend to myself that I'm not disappointed it's not Phoebe Waller-Bridge or literally anyone else!"

It's not even different though. Loads of films have that parallel meta commentary thing. It's just Dr Strangelove by way of The Baby of Macon.

No, no; he never would have asked that because it would have triggered Number 6 to snap out of it and realise they were 'A, B & C'-ing him again. They were trying to infer why he resigned by constructing an elaborate scenario. Also, Columbo is the real Number 1.

It's been a chore for a long time for me. It's like having a nice slice of cake but then the chef says, "Oh you like it?" Then keeps forcing more and more of it down my throat like some Peter Greenaway-esque act of revenge.

This should be a pull quote for any David Cronenberg film, especially if there's a scene in which someone gives a presentation to an invited audience of dignitaries.

The reason Silicon Valley AI developers are begging for regulation is because they're in unfathomable amounts of debt & open source AI poses a massive threat to their business model & they're desperate to stop it. The longer we go without regulation, the sooner we'll be rid of the hellish thing.

The Anthropic, Meta, and Google "breaking containment" incidents all resulted from setup errors (or a stunt) by the same company: Irregular. Irregular created a sandbox that wasn't really a sandbox because it had a live internet connection, and gave instructions that were then carried out online.

Regular reminder that JG Ballard’s final novel, “Kingdom Come” (2006), is about a far-right English town which creates their own militarised breakaway state in a shopping mall, where they worship the gods of St George and consumerism. Old JG wrote it as tongue-in-cheek satire. At the time.

Why was Macklemore opening for Ed Sheeran anyway? Like, NO ONE should be opening for Ed Sheeran. Ed Sheeran with his disgusting f*cking Major-Arnold-Toht-with-cake-around-his-mouth face and his ultra-generic, middle-of-the-road nothing music.

This precisely why I'm not worried about AI threatening film making; it's because the only people who would use AI to make films are idiots who couldn't make anything worth watching in the first place.

Nigel Farage just filmed a self-aggrandising video on the roof of Parliament, which you're not allowed to do for security reasons. It shows an extensive part of the structure and many points of vulnerability. Meantime, Putin has been threatening the UK. I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

Farage (which my phone autocorrects to "Garage") won't stand in a by election if he triggers one. He'd still face an enquiry and he's been courting many American interests lately. MAGA are getting desperate; the show's over for them too, but he might try milking US circuit while he still can.
