It’s magical. A masterpiece.

This Is What It Looks Like When Nothing Matters Welcome to the internet’s nihilism crisis.

I wrote about something I've been thinking about for a long time. A kind of post-ironic collapse in our politics and culture where nihilism has become the lingua franca of the internet and beyond. It links Kirk, Clavicular, Epstein, memestock/coin stuff, mass shooters. I hope you'll read it.

Omg I just realized I’m feeling this way

A tweet by Rich 'Sir FarFrom' Tipple (@farfromallover): Roses are red, Florists deliver, and then two people (one of whom appears to be William Hartnell in an early Dalek story) looking at a poster which says “IT IS FORBIDDEN TO DUMP BODIES INTO THE RIVER”

Occasionally, over the decades, Star Trek has given us moments where some guy’s space pants aren’t hiding much.

Because that’s all we can afford

Cartoon. Person says to other person „We invented a robot that answers questions.“, adding, „we just have to feed it 10 baby giraffes a day“.

Forbidden Planet titles

Star Wars titles

🧵I watched Forbidden Planet last night. Hadn't seen it for decades. A super-intelligent race is destroyed, despite its technological advances, by its own subconscious primitive fears and greed, 'the monster of the ID'. Hashtag AI, etc.
