She is fearless-- and fearless leadership is what we need, right now.

And he, of course, is such a thug. And POS.

Sorry 1 day lmao

A tweet from Donald Trump that reads “Don’t worry about China, it will all be fine! Highly respected President Xi just had a bad moment. He doesn’t want Depression for his country, and neither do I. The U.S.A. wants to help China, not hurt it!!! President DJT”

Many people compared John Cafferty to Bruce Springsteen back then. Know what the odd thing is? They have been friends since the 70s.

Everything we show now, is still relevant today. Scary, as most of this dystopian stuff is from decades past, and is no longer fiction. :(

If AI decides NOT to confirm your identity,is your very existence even recognized?Insane -maybe suicidal- to give artificial intelligence this kind of power over humans.If the godd**ned things ever do "wake up",humans will be totally screwed.Will give term "woke" a dark and terrible meaning #cinemon

And now, for something even more creepier: The Boston Dynamics robots. Watch how they move, and what they can do. I swear, they are going to be used to fight wars.

Also, check out how they "high five" one another, at the end. \

OK, check this out: There's actually a popular AI "actress," now -- Yes, AI -- who's the new Hollywood It Girl. "Her" name is Tilly Norwood, and "she" is looking for an agent. No joke.

Creepy and Freaky as Hell.

And now you know why SAG wanted the "NO-AI" in their contract.

No, but I like him, too!

The actor who played Smith's mentor in the movie, is James Cromwell, who's great in just about everything he does.

Did you ? I can't remember if I did or not. Now, I don't like Will Smith but back then, I didn't mind him. Maybe I was just looking forward to something more like Asimov. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #cinemon

There are students today, who don't know how to read or write in cursive, b/c they are no longer being taught. Seriously. WTAF?! How will they be able to read, say, a copy of the Declaration of Independence? Abigail Adams's and Eleanor Roosevelt's letters? How would they sign a check? #CineMon

Edward @edoreilly.bsky.social · 14h

We're seeing a generation "evolve",if that's the correct name for it,that can't even write its own name.Or even write at all,for that matter.If this is "progress",it's a strange one.If one needs AI to confirm one's very identity,might this not be a step towards complete dependence on AI?... #cinemon
