I sorta think the fact that they pivoted from NFTs to AI without even pausing is part of why more people aren’t buying “AI is the future.”

“Okay, the thing we just spent 2 years telling you was the future turned out to be nothing at best and a scam at worst, but this time we have a real one!”

I will never forgive the American people for saying “eh maybe it won’t be that bad this time around” and then like 3 seconds later saying “oops nope I hate this”

minor pet peeve whenever I see miyazaki discourse, but isao takahata also made ghibli movies and more people should watch them

JD Vance's ideal America is a place with half the GDP where everyone with potential and options gets the fuck out, a shithole that people from countries with actual dynamism visit to watch chintzy 'traditional' dances before going home.

correct
SPIRITED AWAY is a masterwork but as Ive gotten into rewatching them with my kids I'm actually growing convinced that KIKI'S DELIVERY SERVICE is the best overall work in the canon. Unlike SPIRITED AWAY which can sometimes feel unfocused and episodic, Kiki has a laser-focused and satisfying structure
Rewatched several Ghibli movies recently and yeah, this one really is the masterwork. I may prefer Mononoke and Porco Rosso a bit more on vibes but the overall cohesion, artistry and scope of Spirited Away is simply undeniable.

all you need to know about them is that when trump decided to forgo the stupid WHCA dinner this year, they threw their sad little prom in a rental hall and jacked each other off about how brave they were under biden
I can’t tell if it’s cowardice or some fucked up sense of decorum that makes no sense in the current environment with this fuckin guy

nuzzi has to be just the tip of the iceberg with this stuff as far as i’m concerned. there’s so many absolutely talentless lazy fuckheads in political journalism that there’s no way she’s just one bad apple

I remember when I was in my 20’s at the turn of the century when professional poker was inexplicably having a moment in pop culture and my thought at the time was all of these guys are douchey, obnoxious and tacky. of course it’s right-coded
