We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

Really not excited by the reviews I'm reading thus far of Mike Flanagan's Carrie adaptation. Which is too bad because I like Mike Flanagan.

Pedantic, but "botched execution" suggests controllable factors that, if followed, ensure the state can humanely end a life. They cannot, and this proved it. It is a failed execution by a gov't entity that can not guarantee fulfillment of capital punishment in accordance with the 8th Amendment.

A very sharp piece of casting was having Eva Marie Saint play Cybill Shepherd’s mother on MOONLIGHTING. Not only is there a resemblance, but her bearing was so right, though not identical. She was in a heck of an episode called “Every Daughter’s Father Is A Virgin.”

Eva Marie Saint, Oscar Winner for ‘On the Waterfront,’ Is Dead at 102 (Gift Article)
A luminous beauty with dramatic depth, she brought a layered intensity to harrowing roles and seduced Cary Grant in the romantic thriller “North by Northwest.”

Eldest niece: so unicorns are real… me: well probably not. Eldest niece: but you showed me a DOCUMENTARY like with the BABY CHEETAHS. me: ok so Legend starring Tom Cruise and Tim Curry is not, in fact— Eldest niece: what does your hoodie say? me: (sigh) Never invite a vampire into your home.

I am trying to find a thread--which I either read here or possibly Threads--that posited that single POV in romance often reduces the MMC to an accessory in the FMC's story. does anyone remember reading that? do you remember who wrote it?

I cannot stress enough that ICE is acting the way cops have acted for years. These are just "starlight tours" for Indigenous teens applied to the rest of the population.

I’m realistic enough to know that we’re not going to fix the campus rape problem overnight, because patriarchy is multifaceted and cockroach-like in its survival abilities, but something I think we could get in place fast is a program for letting victims transfer without penalties.

The rush to accuse, without anything approaching due diligence, artists of using "AI," should be treated with contempt. An artist gets their work *ripped off* to train a plagiarism machine, which then shits out inferior versions of that work, so then you accuse the artist of using "AI"? Fuck you.

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

We can't have an actual conversation about AI between people with tech knowledge and those without because they purposefully poisoned the vocabulary specifically so they could ride the coattails of actual science and also use that as a shield against claims they are just big fuckin scammers.

Democrats caved and/or facilitated this monopolization of practically every major media property in the US into the hands of a MAGA fascist psychopath. If the US had an opposition party, each of its presidential contenders would would vow to dissolve this monopoly by any means necessary.

In case anyone else needs it, the magic phrase for shutting down men picking apart a sexual violence case by blaming victims is: “The only people who would say something like that are rape apologists, rapists, or both.” You don’t have to argue with them on merit when their claims have no merit.

Again: for Black Women, in particular, the ability to chose, a time and place to reproduce is a function of liberty. The most fundamental fact of enslavement was the Black Women had no control over their reproduction; in fact, their ability to reproduce was a key source of other’s wealth.
