I find it so funny that Tetsuya Nomura is the primary reason Tron ever made it as a franchise into the 21st century.

I doubt Disney will ditch Tron forever. It got brought back for Kingdom Hearts, then a sequel movie and now Tron Ares. Eventually, Tron is no doubt going to come back in another 15 years.

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing

If they want to say that that's a Democratic priority, they're right,

Caller flounders about trying and failing to get out of the corner he painted before just openly admitting he’s an idiot 17 minutes in.

This video is fucking wild. Guy calls in to debate against trans health care and cites a study to back up his position. Very quickly it's revealed he got the study from ChatGPT and THAT IT DOESN'T EVEN EXIST!!!

I hate AI with the white hot heat of a thousand suns.

You never actually have to tell an artist that you don't like their work. You can just keep it to yourself and it's fine, nothing bad will happen to you.

This was beautiful to watch. This is the energy all ICE agents need to face when they dare to think they can talk to us. You can make now but a database will be exist and you won’t stop running. Your fam will be tired of running and leave you. Everything you touch will fail. We own your soul.

Listen, I can’t really say much since my memory of the whole discourse is deliberately vague, but in complete fairness from what I DO remember even your mildest criticisms of that movie didn’t really make a ton of sense.

So because this is also the name of AI slopware, I feel I should state now that anytime I express positivity toward Sora, I'm talking about the KH character who did nothing wrong.

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

Randomly find myself thinking about how great ‘What If…Peter Quill Attacked Earth’s Mightiest Heroes’ is.

I don’t think it’s THE BEST episode of that show, but it’s easily the most rewatchable and the one I most want more of.

If they could get Douglass for it, I’d love a Zombies-style spin off.

Mamdani: "I just want to speak directly to the president. I will not be a mayor like Mayor Adams who will call you to stay out of jail. I won't be a disgraced governor like Andrew Cuomo who will call you to ask how to win this election. I can do those things on my own."

If every incel somehow got a girlfriend, the net violence in the world would only go up. Because guys who think like that are violent and abusive to their girlfriends.
It's not their singleness that's dangerous, it's the way they think about women and will treat them.

OpenAI’s strategy is very clear, it’s trying to get people - especially young people - so reliant on its products intellectually & emotionally (& now sexually!) that going without them becomes unthinkable. And they need signs of that strategy working to keep the funding flowing in
