Genesys hot take: Skill cards should be legal but pointed, with points scaling with how good the deck they support is. "Crystal Transcendence" would only be 1 point, "Ever Faithful Compsnions" would be a lot more. #yugiohGenesys #yugiohSpeedDuel #Yugiohtcg

Having decided to not give paramount any money for the forseeable future, I've decided just to entirely skip the current magic prerelease season. #Mtg #MagicTheGatheribg #Not-going-to-male-the-Ellisons-even-richer

The show must go on as they say in showbiz. Still, this is a loss no one expected as he was destined to become the definitive #LooneyTunes moving forward especially since Jeff Bergman and Bob Bergen are in their 60s. WB / Skydance would want someone young. No one knows what will happen now.

Superhero idea: An empath with the power to induce a feeling of euphoria in those around him. His power doesn't work on himself, and he struggles with depression. Codename: Paggliaci.

Thinking more about this - AI is also going to be limited by its profitability. As an “art” tool, it sounds too good to be possible - because it is. Interest is drying up, and the ouroboros of billionaires funding AI has limits. Eventually, AI needs to be profitable… which will make it EXPENSIVE.

Sad, but it doesn't have to be inevitable. This isn't an advancement in film like talkies or color that audiences demanded. Audiences don't demand AI. They just demand a good movie. AI isn't about making good movies; it's just about making more money with less skill. #movies #scriptsky

Breaking news: The Justice Department has moved to preemptively block certification of the results of Alaska’s Senate race if Republican incumbent Sen. Dan S. Sullivan loses his tight race against Democrat Mary Peltola next month.

The whole idea of the tech establishment as this secrecy-shrouded cult of knowledge where the rank and file are mere functionaries operating devices they don't understand via rote exalted as ritual while only the elite actually know their shit, when the reality has proven to be the exact opposite!

VisionQuest is doing the quiet, weird work the MCU needs — character-first storytelling instead of cameo bait. Everyone's asking when Agatha and Wiccan show up, but the show's better when it lets Vision just be a lonely synthezoid asking what makes a person real. #VisionQuest #MCU

It's been ages since I've played Kingdom of Loathing, but I still have a pavlovian response to the number 11. It's ridiculous, it's not even funny. #KingdomOfLoathing #KoL

Honestly it wouldn't really be that bad. REBDE is the only card in the deck that specifically cares about you having activated it, and you can still fusion summon it honestly (although you lose some utility if you use RE Fusion). The biggest problem is losing the effect of DTW itself. #Yugiohtcg

Whenever I hear about JK Rowling or anything related to her, I just remember that she really doesn't like David Tennant, and then I think she truly has no soul, you can't be human and say you hate that guy

To be fair, anyone who claims to love Sam Altman is probably a spy or on the payroll.

the big thing the rise of LLMs has revealed to me is that there is a not insignificant chunk of the population that considers cognition itself to be a frustrating and unnecessary burden

Scandals this week in the Texas senate race: Ken Paxton on video with his latest mistress partying in Dubai with a wanted fugitive who committed over $300 million in health care fraud and gave $190K to Paxton. James Talarico stayed home to recover from the flu.

It is generally good life advice that if you ever hear some "everyone knows" third party gossip about a trans creator or public figure, your 1st instinct should be to disbelieve it, your 2nd instinct should be NOT to pass it on, and 3rd to check VERY THOROUGHLY who's saying it and where it came from

One of the worst parts of being a creator, especially a trans one, is watching disinformation about you spread from bad actors to other folks like a bad game of telephone so you see people literally judge you on shit you never said/did or is completely opposite to the point you were making.

Unlikely; the show goes out of its way to show us the cyborg mall cop suffering an injury of similar severity in roughly the same spot on his body just to make extra sure we have a point of comparison.

I’m outraged by this attack on Representative Omar. Trump and his DOJ have a bizarre obsession with tearing down Minnesota, our leaders and our communities. This latest action, even as voting has already started in Minnesota, is a transparent attempt to interfere in our elections.

Like imagine if they were just like ok Gerwig, Coogler, Schoenbrun, you all get to make a Star Wars however and whenever you want and none of it needs to connect with anything or even look like it takes place in the same universe. Make a Star Wars film set in 1980s West Virgina idk.

Don't think for a second they wont do more public executions. Don't think for a second they will stop at prisoners. Don't think for a second that they wont see you as a target.

This plays right into my theory that everything about HP this time around feels corporate mandated and astroturfed. They know the brand is toxic and want to force it on everyone instead of let it happen (or not) organically.

Scholastic sent me a whole box of paperback copies of Sorcerer’s Stone that I sure didn't order. When I asked why, my rep told me they're sending complimentary giveaway copies to random schools that do Book Fair.

Skydance prominently featured "Harry Potter" as a company logo it now owned. near as I can tell, this is literally the only individual franchise to get this treatment, and it was featured more prominently than entire companies like CNN or Miramax I don't see how anyone could doubt this argument
