"a man calling himself 'beast' is bribing men and women to participate in unholy games" you would tell that to any arbitrary person in europe for centuries and they would not need any further convincing to say it was the doing of the Adversary

Say what you will about the Star Wars Holiday Special, but it's the only Christmas special about a fascist occupying army raiding homes and forcing planet-wide curfews, and then the good guys kill a cop.

My favorite ludicrous New Yorker style is that they print initialisms in full caps but acronyms (initialisms pronounced as words) in small caps, so in the days of CD-ROMs, they'd write the word like this:

It would be one thing if you work as an animator and someone comes up to you with a pristine bit of Disney magic provided by a prompt and says you don’t have a job, that would be terrible but you could see the cruel mercenary nature of it, but it’s like your boss comes up to you and shows you this

Then up with the banner so glorious,
The star-spangled red, white and blue;
We'll fight 'til our banner's victorious,
For Lincoln and liberty too!

The best American flag is the battle flag of Tecumseh Sherman’s 23rd Corps, made from the tattered remains of Confederate banners.

my “AI is over” anecdote is that my wife was hired over the summer to write scripts for a big tech company explaining how to use their AI tools and after many rounds of revisions, the latest notes said “we’re finding a lot of AI fatigue among our users” and to remove all references to AI
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

Yeah. Before the fall, CK's act—and his fandom—rested on the premise that his worst self wasn't his true self. Now it's the opposite, and that's just not interesting as comedy.
He is just generally an alt-right, unrepentantly racist and transphobic piece of shit. He is also a genuinely bad comedian, much in the way that thin-skinned assholes often are 🤷♀️
