Is there an account where I can see all the designs wore in Schitt’s Creek? I need that so much

USA-made movies, TV shows, and video games still frequently feature “successfully torturing accurate information out of someone” as a frequent trope with no hint of moral complication. This shit is deep in our culture.

I remember first time a friend who had an early CD player showed me what “digital noise” sounded like — like a record skip but a digital CD — and that unnatural raggedly glitchy screech is what our politics feels like to me right now

This terrible graphic is using blue for “all Americans” when most readers will think it’s Democrats because it is blue. Maybe it wouldn’t make a huge difference to label it accurately but … why do it like this?

Professor Gina Neff of Queen Mary University London told the BBC ChatGPT is "burning through energy", and the data centres used to power it consume more electricity in a year than 117 countries. This is just ChatGPT, not even all Gen AI. Using more electricity than >60% of the world.

More of this please. GenAI models with specialized focus & data sets seem to have much promise in specific domains, and when orgs & users understand & manage their limitations.

Arguing schools need to teach "AI literacy" is entirely corporate marketing or geopolitical "new space race" rubbish now. It eradicates the history of media/digital literacies as *critical* programs to support informed consumers and creators. It just means accustomization to prompting for BS jobs.

I spoke to another person this week—also a US-born citizen—who showed me the DHS email she received informing her that she had to leave the country. Incompetent, evil or both?

I wonder what impact Amistad might have had if Spielberg had made it more stylistically like Schindler's List than, say, Lincoln

Watching Amistad (1997) for the first time and it is a complicated 1990s inflected take on the events but this moment has really stood out to me so far.

Gogol's famous story THE NOSE comes to life in silent pinscreen animation. The 1963 release was one of the few films completed by the team of Alexeieff and Parker. Their low output was due to the time consuming and meticulous nature of their chosen medium.

My brain trying to remember a coworker's name: "I'm sure it sounds Spanish & starts with V…Valencia? No that's in Spain … Valeria! No game of thrones…Vidalia! no but ooo onion rings…focus! Viridiana! No that's a Bunuel movie … ugh!" Dear Reader, the name didn't even start with V it starts with L 😭

This is a recipe for financially ruining U.S. research universities: 1) Vastly and rapidly reduce funding for research and infrastructure; 2) Scare international students, whose tuition helps fund PhD students (as TAs), away. These folks know exactly what they're doing.

Seriously, any dude who thinks it’s perfectly fine and easy to register to vote after a name change — go do it. Change your name to your spouse’s name. Then go stand in line at the DMV. And at Social Security. Plus at least 25 hours on the phone with every financial relationship you have. Hop hop!
