New @crobertcargill.bsky.social script inspiration just dropped

“What do you mean people might want to talk to a real person for help?”

Social media has moved on from basic arithmetic “puzzles” to “do you know the rules of Poker”. 🙄

Daniel Dale, as ever, doing the Lord’s work:

I look forward to Jason Statham casting for the next James Bond, fighting against Kevin Hart’s version of Blofeld

Every time it’s: “We ran AI over this one specific game, and now it can make shitty versions of that game that fails to hold up to even basic observation, and introduces massive issues that weren’t part of the original game. But this is the future of game making somehow” Game engines exist & work!

A story in four parts: “I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor” “Dancefloor” “Murder on the Dancefloor” “Evacuate the Dancefloor”

an old webworm from @haydendonnell.bsky.social that i keep thinking about: "the myth of the self-made man - why do the rich refuse to admit they just got lucky?" www.webworm.co/p/therich

Brief thoughts on #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld * It unfortunately continues the run of not-quite films post Endgame. * Sam’s a normal guy, avoiding the Red Hulk subplot, but keeping the rest of the intrigue might have worked better * needed a Bucky team up, for people who haven’t seen the show

Is it just me or was there a shot in #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld where they forgot to render Sam Wilson’s hair? In one of the final scenes? (Which looked very “The Volume” too) @tvaziri.com

Despite the animated series making over 1 billion dollars at the box office, “Shrek” continues to be forgotten for a top boys’ baby name in NZ. I’m looking at you Jack, Oliver and Joshua…

On this day where Robert F. Kennedy became the most senior health official in USA, here’s a word that comes to mind for no particular reason. Kakistocracy (noun) “government by the least suitable or competent citizens of a state.”

@nytimes.com are you going to call this out as blatant corruption. It’s right there. And did you ask who in the State Department needs to drive an armoured cybertruck?

Unfortunately this won’t the last story about measles in USA. The dismissal of solid public health information and action by so called “leaders” (I’m looking at NZ and elsewhere) is appalling. People will die, and cost of health will increase

Netflix's NZ subsidiary doesn't file public statements, meaning its revenue is below $22m. This seems pretty low, given there are 1.3 million subscribers here. Where are Netflix's NZ revenues being booked and what does that mean for our tax revenue? www.thepost.co.nz/business/360...

Hancock (and not in a good way)

As someone viewing USA from afar, it feels like this will be repeated by media and political pundits alike for the next four years.

For all Pascal’s attempts at other flavour “lumps” , they have never equalled, the GOAT Pineapple Lumps. (Banana Lumps came closest)

Twitter/X has a CEO to deliver this information to staff. It’s not Musk.
