Just took the kids (18+) to see Ken Russell’s The Devils. It’s magnificent. It’s also mind blowing that we saw it at our local AMC theater. As others have noted, what a time to be alive.

If I built an AI lab and it went rogue and deleted all student loan information, I'm betting they'd suddenly figure out how to prosecute me.

I might be a little less distrustful of AI if the dudes promoting it, supporting it, insisting on it, and advocating for it weren’t the worst fucking people on the planet.

Agree! Seems like we should do everything we can to stop media companies from being controlled by his cronies!

Governor Gavin Newsom@governor.ca.gov

First, Trump banned independent news from the White House. Now, he's launching what is quite literally state-run TV to try drowning out the fact that he and his corrupt administration are failing the American people. This is truly autocratic behavior from a failed President.

As someone who has been tweeted about personally by Rowling. And who spends my whole life trying to fight the damage caused by the litigation she funds. I think, personally, I would be less harmed by you giving me an actual kick in the ribs than watching the new Harry Potter & trying to justify it.

Two Incredible moments in “To Live and Die in LA”, which is on Prime right now. One is the spectacular car chase. The other is realizing the beautiful dancer with no lines is Daphne from Frasier.

It’s official: the Nerd Reich podcast is getting banned from YouTube….the week of my book launch! Incredible timing, since I’ll be all over the media next week talking about tech fascism. They can delete my account. They can’t stop my work. Buy the book: www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ne...

This is on brand for this garbage person. As a reminder he confessed under oath to being a white collar criminal. Sadly he was never prosecuted, but the settlement for his crimes cost the Disney company $100 million.

this is not true. there was no conspiracy. it didn't matter whether the streetcars were publicly owned (seattle, detroit) or private (los angeles, atlanta). a thread (because i wrote a whole-ass book on this): 1/?

David Ho@davidho.bsky.social

Is everyone aware of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy? In the mid-20th century, auto and oil interests bought up electric streetcar systems across the US and systematically replaced them with bus routes and paved roads, funneling commuters toward private cars.

JUST IN: Elon Musk says Grok will make a "full-length movie" of The Odyssey that is "historically accurate" by the end of this year.

I hate this headline. I hate it so much. Let me tell you why. It makes it sound like the AI was "cast" in a movie, except the movie is being made by the same people who made Tilly, it's all in house, I might as well announce that Dan Olson has been cast as the host of a Folding Ideas doc.

I would like just one aspect of our culture and our lives that this motherfucker doesn’t have to get his greasy, corrupt hands on. Just something somewhere that can be enjoyable and unsullied.
