Third year running I'm gonna have to hear Christians sing about Bethlehem and have nothing to say about Bethlehem the actual real place

I don’t mind saying and I think you’ll believe me that the 1984 Oscar for Best Supporting Actress should have gone to, jointly, Lynn Mabry and Ednah Holt for Stop Making Sense.

Trainspotting, by myself in the balcony of a giant old unrestored 1920s theater in Madison WI. Snow White in Manila, 3 years old. Blair Witch when the film melted right before the payoff at the end (AKA the only good part) and the theater manager tried to convince us we didnt miss anything.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

Step 1: Recruit Donald Trump to topple your government

Step 2: Try not to get caught in the crossfire

Step 3: Profit
Nobel Peace Prize Winner María Corina Machado’s escape from Venezuela was particularly risky because her team had to inform the US military that she was escaping so they wouldn’t mistake her boat for an alleged narco boat and bomb it.

It's going to become v expensive to *not* use gen AI
Is there a version of something like Canva that *doesn’t* incorporate AI? Not Premiere or a high-end video editing package, but a glue-images-and-audio-together with captions and subtitles but NO godawful generative options and templates? Like one you’d use if you had an artistic bone in your body?

There are many stories about trying to bring back the dead. They mostly all have the same moral.

Classifications arent like, eternal. Classification is done for a reason. Why are you classifying things as Christmas movies and non Christmas movies? Are you shelving them in a library? Are Christmas movies taxed differently?

Never mind. I'm not going to listen to any criticisms of how I play the game from someone who isn't playing it themself

OBVIOUSLY do not use AI, at all. AT ALL, for anything. I don’t wanna hear about the theoretical good version, it’s not what they’re pushing on us. The absolute worst people in the world have gone all in on this shit, and it needs to be starved out as much as possible. AI: not even once!
Sec. Hegseth rolled out the U.S. military’s new AI platform, GenAi.Mil, with a link to an empty website. trib.al/tbCJAkT

Predictably, the platform can’t actually be accessed from external networks, but the wonky rollout triggered eyerolls across the internet.

Well things are so much different now,
I'd say the situation's reversed,
And it will probably not be the last time I have to be out by the first

I’m even more of a physical media hardliner for music than for movies, and watching the collective psychological shift toward Spotify from the outside has been deeply, deeply strange.
I feel like the physical media narrative is lost. So many who champion analog in regards to movies, that advocate for Blu-ray and 4K discs over streaming of those films, have seemingly zero issue with using services like Spotify while not also buying records. Physical media is all of it.
