I do find a lot to criticize among current writing trends, but "millennial writing" is tantamount to a hand-wave. You're not actually interested in engaging with the work itself. You just think it's "cringe."
"millennial writing" as a term confabulates cuz it could charitably describe Joss Whedon's writing style, but Whedon is not a millennial. Guys using this term to "crit" don't aim it at Whedon or Whedonesque works. Feels like a "CalArts style" level crit. Just another way of saying "gay/for girls"

They haven't shut the fuck up about Hasan Piker saying "America brought 9/11 on itself" for months only for Trump to say something ten times worse live on national television

When Ms. Ayla lectures the class on Royals, one question remains: “Does magic really make them special?” After years, our teaser short is FINALLY HERE! This is just a small taste of the Core Four’s journey in Sunnyside! ✨ #SunnysideRoyalsOfCora #indieanimation

Reminder to any lefties out there tempted to hand it to tuck tuck - this guy is not our ally
Tucker: “I never understood why 🇬🇧 fought World War 2?” 😕 Rees-Mogg: “It was good vs. evil…We did the right thing…” Tucker: “Has 🇬🇧 benefitted?” RM: “We defeated Hitler… We’d all be speaking German…” Tucker: “Who cares?” 🤔

Yesterday's news about Jacob Geller broke my heart, so much that I couldn't stop dwelling on it all day. In an effort to make sense of this horrific news and my admittedly complicated feelings about it, here is my article on the Jacob Geller situation: epiloguegaming.com/what-do-we-d...

Maybe I’m going on my high-horse a bit, but I’ve always had a quiet disdain for irony-pilled humour. While a detached mindset can be funny in moderation, I think the world needs more sincerity and genuine care, rather than less of it. Call me a fuckin’ Boy Scout, but eh. I literally was one.
If Mamdani's social media campaign is propaganda then it is propaganda unreproducible by Democrats and Republicans because it relies first and foremost on tangible results.
Last month, we refurbished 10 tennis courts in Crotona Park — the only public tennis courts in the Bronx with lights for night play. We stopped by recently to see how things were going. Thank you to NYJTL, USTA and Yonex for helping us deliver high-quality public spaces that New Yorkers deserve.
"I don’t agree that hand-drawn animation isn’t commercial, which is why my movie isn't hand-drawn."
Brad Bird says ‘Ray Gunn’ was made in 3D CG partly because studios are afraid hand-drawn 2D animation won’t be commercially successful: “I don’t agree that hand-drawn animation isn’t commercial, which is what the industry believes.”

I really hate being one of those "indie animation fans have no media literacy" people but I will admit that I'm not surprised that a show with very obvious themes of anti-capitalism, misogyny, abuse, ableism and the patriachy is completely overlooked is going over a lot of people's heads lmao.
@obsidian.md keeps deleting my notes so I'mma need to find some other note taking software. be better, obsidian.

Mayor Mamdani: AI is present in nearly every aspect of our lives. I am proud to announce New York City's first ever AI policy for our public schools. Children need teachers and human connection to learn and grow. This school year, we will implement a 1 year moratorium on AI from 2k through 8th grade
