Regarding the AI skin people are calling an “actress”

Studio types would LOVE this to succeed, so the skin is being featured and anthropomorphized in the mainstream press.

Remember, movie producers left money on the table pre-1910 and refused to credit movie actors

Faxanadu, developed by Hudson Soft under license from Falcom, and published by Nintendo, joins my #RetroGamingSeries.

A wanderer returns home only to find the World Tree dying, the dwarves gone mad, and the elves under attack. Can he uncover the cause?

because they’ll never come back?
A federal judge has ruled the end of Operation Metro Surge means residents and journalists who alleged immigration officials violated their constitutional rights cannot sue to restrict agents’ future tactics.
Lawsuit alleging ICE violated Minnesota observers’ rights is dismissed by judge
A federal judge ruled the end of Operation Metro Surge and the drawdown of agents means plaintiffs lack standing to sue.

got tickets to an event I never expected to see, a carefully remastered and uncut and duly NC-17 rated exhibition of Ken Russell's THE DEVILS exclusively in AMC theaters (that last part is the real confounder)

I am in the group who has no idea what they're in for and frankly I'm good with that

the iced-coffee-at-a-job-interview discourse asks a question about an experience we've all had, but in a million variations. Everyone has an opinion and is both wrong and right because no one answer can be right or wrong. It's important, so everyone cares about feeling right. Nightmare scenario. Run

there used to be this thing called the Hellthread, it was this post with broken code where if you replied anywhere in it you got every notification about it forever. People started posting weird porn in it for this reason, and then they'd also be trapped and see everyone else's weird porn

Years ago the director of this movie went on Turkish TV and explained that this was never meant to be released to the public. It was just a joke he did with his friends but someone ended up uploading it to the internet and it exploded. Very few people in Turkey even knew it existed.

we saw “The Beast in Me” and liked it a lot but, while Claire Danes acts well, she acts with her face *so much* that early into the first episode I was wishing for more subtlety. Just writing entire articles with her eyebrows and mouth corners

exactly what I’d say about bringing this dumbass discourse to Bluesky. Meeeeute
I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

thinking back on the sweet serene time when I thought of the Brooklyn Dems as basically well-intentioned incompetents
This Brooklyn Democratic Party County Committee meeting was an anti-democratic disgrace. Shame on the leaders of the party, who ignored legitimate questions from reformers, tried to get the cops to eject people, insulted dissenters, and pushed through Bichotte-Hermelyn's power grab. 📷🧵

Reminder that in Canada upon becoming an engineer you get an iron ring made of a collapsed bridge, purposely designed to be uncomfortable, to remind you that your ethics demand you give a fuck even about the boring grudgework of such as double-checking your math.

“Since 1973, 27 gangs or subgroups have been identified through lawsuits & reports compiled by the department’s independent oversight bodies. The gangs have operated out of patrol stations & inside the county’s jails, giving themselves names like the “Banditos,” “Regulators,” and “Lynwood Vikings.”

‘Swan Song’ by Robert McCammon, it is grim and vivid stuff

Never let “this plot is so similar to a bestseller!” keep you down, because on paper this is very close to ‘The Stand’ but frankly it’s better
Name the current book you're reading.

Saw a woman on TikTok who said she quit corporate at age 46 to become a beekeeper because “I would literally rather get stung by 10,000 bees than write ‘per my last email’ again” and you know what? I respect that

Had an interesting chat today with someine who works with this prod. I think a couple of people I work with are eagerly melting their own brains right now

These scripts I’ve been getting are so bad because they *don’t edit them,* if it came from Claude (not ChatGPT) it must be good to go
a producer I work with keeps farming out social media video scripts to AI and it’s just disappointing, like at least remove the obvious tells

if you watch a lot of Bar Rescue (guilty) there’s a recurring phenomenon where half a dozen regulars will live at a bar and the owner thinks “I can’t lose the regulars!” but they hate every change that might improve business and act like they have veto power while not spending enough money. js

Ezra Klein asked Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang about AI making kids worse at math and reading. Huang’s reply: “Does it matter?”

Then he said he doesn’t know his own address or phone number. “We’re going to lose some fine intellectual dexterity.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/23/o...

I must be feeling better because I want a great big deli sandwich for lunch

I might even go to this place that charges so much they should throw in a free baby, absurd business but they’re good sandwiches

why does everybody think they’ll be the special one who comes out ahead in a deal with Donald Trump?

Why have we had to watch that play out again almost weekly for the last 10 years? It’s like he exudes a pheromone
Sen Tammy Duckworth:

Democrats should not hold Trump and his administration accountable for anything, and in fact we should allow Trump to “save face” 🤦🏻‍♂️

lmaaaao one of the sports shows I work on had the hosts looking at VMA contenders today (don’t ask) and “Madonna has a new album???!” is a real thing one of them said. Just a whole different world over there
