And while we're on the subject: there's no ethical use of a product brought to market through unethical means. It doesn't matter whether the product is "AI" or chocolate or diamonds. Most generative "AI" was knowingly developed through massive theft from creatives; we have the emails admitting this.

Actress Brigitte Helm taking a break during the filming of Fritz Lang's sci-fi masterpiece, Metropolis (1927). The metal costume was notoriously heavy and hot under the studio lights, requiring crew members to help her cool down with a hair dryer and drink through a straw.

Watching some Siskel & Ebert “At the Movies” special on PBS and they showed the scene from The Omen where Damien knocks his mom off the balcony with his Big Wheel. I was about his age at the time.

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵
