Don't take this job! They will pay you peanuts to "edit" a TL that's so flavorless/confusing you'll have to TL the whole thing all over again from scratch bc machine TL can't deal with nuance, metaphor, idiom, personality, or any of the other many human elements that come together to make a story!

365 Days of Tunes - 147/365: Tex Avery’s THE BEAR’S TALE (’40) recreates the story of “Goldilocks and the Three Bears,” but with a unique twist. Tex himself voices (and chortles) as Papa Bear while taking pot-shots at the Disney brand.

I resent the proliferation of chatgpt because every story I see about it makes me feel better about my own ability to string two sentences together. and it shouldn't be that easy. I thrive off of perpetual disappointment with my writing. I can't be growing complacent now.

It's a shame that Once Upon a Witch's Death has sort of slipped off the radar, as it's shaping up to be a highlight of the season. This episode in particular got far darker than expected.

Open AI’s valuation is at $400 billion. They used about 190,000 books to train their plagiarism bot. Randomly saying 25% of their value comes from that stolen dataset, I think they owe the authors about $526,000 per stolen book.

On the one hand, an industry that makes billions of dollars, provides thousands of good jobs, and produces immense cultural capital. On the other hand, an industry with a barely-functional product that has yet to turn a profit. Only someone bought and paid for would see this as a tough call.

365 Days of Tunes - 146/365: Tex Avery’s fairy-tale spoof, CINDERELLA MEETS FELLA (’38), is an excellent example of his indelible mark in animated cartoons. This film's fourth-wall breaking and subversive humor—two key elements of Tex’s comic identity—no doubt surprised Depression-era moviegoers.

365 Days of Tunes - 145/365: The third in the Bugs vs. Cecil Turtle trilogy, Friz Freleng’s RABBIT TRANSIT (’47) is overshadowed by the earlier two films, but isn't as one-sided; both characters cheat against each other in tit-for-tat one-upsmanship.

Thoughts on Wolves this year: not great, tbh. Another "oh no, we're going to be relegated, wait, better 2nd half" season, but of the non-relegated teams we're basically last. (Spurs are below us, but they don't count as they won Europa.)
