Ronnie tells me her period started today. So, she'll be bleeding on Halloween.

I immediately asked "can I be a vampire for Halloween?!"

If he wasn't in the #EPSTEIN_Files, a hardbound copy embossed in gaudy gold would be readily available for sale at his MAGA Merch site for the low, low price of $500, or IF YOU ACT NOW, a personally signed copy for the more-than-reasonable price of $1K: Courtesy of the gross greedy #GrifterInChief.💰

The idea of mass transit being an actual functional option is so alien to me. If I don't have my car, I just assume I'll either need a rental, or not be able to leave the house.

Hey look, YouTube is doing a thing that no one asked for, benefits no one, wastes resources, reduces functionality, destroys original content, burdens infrastructure, and worsens the user experience all so they can push a false narrative about tech that fundamentally doesn't work the way they want.

Youtube has announced that all low-res videos (i.e. older ones) are to be automatically AI upscaled to HD.
Creators can opt-out on a per video basis (but the channel may be long abandoned).

When researching props or behind the scenes, old videos are useful, but not if upscaling produces artefacts.

Artists behind some of the most popular films of all time are also forging one of the most powerful organized resistances to AI.

With solidarity, class action lawsuits and strong legislation, they're fighting to protect their livelihoods, and pop culture, from big tech.

My latest:

How artists behind Marvel, Alien, and the Matrix movies are fighting AI

With solidarity, legislation, class action lawsuits, and a little help from Guillermo del Toro. Plus, the Luddite Renaissance continues, and I open the mailbag.

me: a guy here was arrested for assaulting a woman while he was cosplaying as a nazi officer

Dad: what is cosplay

me: *explains*

Dad: sounds like a nazi who stopped "cosplaying" as a normal person

This man's ability to randomly say insightful thing while also putting cosplay in quotes is a trip

My opening for a comedic talk would be "Hi, my name is Karen Ho, a name ruined by white people twice. For nearly three years, I was the only full-time art crime reporter in America. I know why so many museums are haunted and which paintings were seized from Leonardo DiCaprio by the US government."
