Just had the idea in my head and had to get it down and out. It's a bit messy in places, but i do like the effect and yes, Optimus Prime sacrificing his life for computer games characters is absolutely on brand and makes perfect sense. An absolute classic story. #transformers #maccadam

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Every character was stood in the exact same place at practically the same angle and shot in the same way, nothing was memorable.
That's the "power of AI", doing a job far worse than a team of human artists could.

Just watched The Substance. I just had to know how far it went. And. Yeah. Holy *shit*. But also that was just a really fantastic movie! Had a lot to say. Not subtle at all but I love that about it.
Also even before the VFX it's the grossest movie I have ever seen. Both visually and audio.

Sometimes i get sad at those “I wanted to look up what kind of horse pulled medieval wagons It’s three hours later and playtex bra sewers made spacesuits i have a problem” no. No, you don’t. Hydrate and get back in there
I strongly recommend everyone do research sometimes 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘧𝘶𝘯.
Look something up on Wikipedia. Go to the little citation. Follow it. Read the article it's referencing. Follow links to the original interview. Read the paper written by the interviewee
It genuinely makes you appreciate journalism
