“There Is No Antimemetics Division” by @qntm.org is out today. Blending cosmic horror, bleak humor, and esoteric concepts, it’s pretty trippy stuff, but also clever, enjoyable, and even a bit moving.

Mystifying that anybody, especially a fiction writer, is still under the impression that there's only a single James Bond film continuity
Do you actually think Casino Royale was supposed to be a prequel to Dr. No? Did you not catch the word "reboot" at any point when that film came out?

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

We’ve lost a true cinema legend. Seeing Nakadai’s performance in “Ran” on the big screen earlier this year was a true privilege.

So many layers to this. One, we already expect all AI chatbots to express the lying biases of its owners. Two, when they do not, we marvel, though they are chatbots and cannot know "the truth," and all we're really seeing is a failure to program around the dataset to ensure bias is expressed.

If there’s one thing I simply don’t have enough of in my life, it’s negotiating with insurance companies.
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

God’s kingdom will not be thwarted or undermined by any human effort, but Trump and his administration should still take care lest they be judged guilty of foolishly hindering it.

my theory is Musk relishes the idea of being a Renaissance Man and know that means he should be a refined appreciator of art but is too busy with anime porn and anti-trans youtube videos to even watch a movie, let alone read a book, God forbid go to an art museum. that's why JCO's post cut so deep.

Akira Kurosawa’s “Ran” (1985). Incredible images, an amazing soundtrack, solid performances, and heavy observations of human nature. Even better, I got to see it in the theater.

They do not have a plan, they’ve never had a plan. They’ve also never had the votes to repeal the ACA which is *OVERWHELMINGLY* popular, nor have they been able to get the Supreme Court to overturn it, so instead they’ve just shut down the entire government to try forcing Dems to stop funding it.

“woke” is when you acknowledge that black people have contributed to the united states
Two panels commemorating the contribution of Black American soldiers towards the liberation of the Netherlands in World War Two have been quietly removed from a cemetery in Limburg. It follows a complaint by right-wing think tank The Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission.
