Don't post AI slop. And if you repost by mistake, as I've done, delete it. When you have something to say and attach AI art, you're undercutting your message and hurting artists. Pay or barter for art. There's a reason good things cost money and take time. AI art is harmful and it looks like ass.

This is true. A pal of mine who is a policeman went to a Scottish island recently to investigate a missing person and when the locals found out he was a Christian they stuck him in a giant human-shaped willow branch construction and burned him alive.

People died to give us our democracies, perfect or not… We should at least have the good grace & gratitude to fight for them.

The same geniuses who think a handful of trans athletes are “unfair” to women are seemingly fine with firing a female four star Coast Guard admiral without cause. They don’t give a shit about women.

As a film dude I have been showing the kid films all her life. You can't predict which one will hold that special place, that will give that nostalgic hit. We're ill, she demanded, as always, spike Lee's Miricle at St Anna as our comfort blanket movie. So random, yet so special to her.

John Woo really didn't fuck around when it came to shotgun squibs. The amount of pyro and debris in the air is incredible. And now this is getting a 4k blu-ray release courtesy of @shoutstudios.bsky.social The greatest action film ever made!

I cannot stress enough how FEW people actually took any action at all to fight back with others against any injustices in the past. Reading history helps. It's ALWAYS the minority of the minority. It's really really important to know this because this IS the reality of struggle.

To even up the Oscars being a bit useless as always why not let me & everyone else know the film or films that meant the most to you last year, or cinematography, editing, performances, costume design, the whole shebang in the replies. Will be good to see what’s been missed.

DW Griffith was born 150 years ago today. I've trained you. You know what to do. What was he? Racist. What did he invent? Nothing at all. Why would history books claim that? Look at Elon Musk!

It really baffles me why some think it's okay to be shitty to a generation of young people who gave up THE MOST to protect their elders, have had THE CRUELLEST possible transition to adulthood, are getting THE LEAST amount of state help, and are facing THE WORST future prospects.

I was always baffled by the story of the Rapa Nui - who seem to have dedicated all their resources to filling Easter Island with enormous stone heads while their civilisation collapsed around them - until I witnessed the tech industry's determination to inflict AI on the world at any cost

If you don't enjoy the difficult process of making art then you'll never be an artist. The gratification of art doesn't come from money, fame or awards. It comes from doing the work and realizing a vision. If you have to circumvent that process then you'll never know what it's like to make art.

If you’re lucky, you’re on this earth for maybe, what, 70, 80 years? Is it really too much to ask you to just leave other people alone and let them try to have a nice life without being be an absolute nob head about it?

Wat een chronisch getergde, kwade, oververhitte en verbeten politici ook. Hebben die ook wel eens een leuke avond met vrienden? Een avondje feest? Lekker ff lachen? Ze zeiden altijd dat links ‘zuur’ is… inmiddels wel grappig. Extreemrechts wordt elke dag wakker in Mordor.

One of the core principles of Wilders government is that the state is hopelessly bloated, and we need huge cuts to civil service, education, diplomacy etc But new data shows 🇳🇱 national debt fell from 54% in 2020 to 42% in 2024 “as if Corona never happened”. Debt’s now at lowest level for 50 years

The BBC needs to have a debate about whether Musk's outbursts should keep leading the news. This isn't about censoring or suppressing his views; it's about whether to amplify them. Most Brits aren't on X, they don't follow Musk & not every raving from a foreign plutocrat should set the news agenda

On the left, my image. On the right, the Al image that was clearly trained on, and designed to plagiarize, my image. All Al generated imagery is inherently theft. It's unethical, environmentally disastrous, and does irreparable harm to both artists and society.
