A digital alarm clock that reads 12:45.

DST ends next month, and we've all heard the phrase "set your clocks back."

But who still actually sets their clocks back? Do you still use a physical alarm clock?

Would you like to talk to me about it for a story? Comment below or send me a message.

It's going to be interesting to see how many people treat this as an attempt to copy STRANGER THINGS, when it's much more accurate to say STRANGER THINGS got a ton of its DNA from IT. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKa6...

I don't always reply to the pitches I receive from publicists (because I have a job that I do and if I did, I would never get to do my job). But here is a tip for aspiring publicists: Critics do not "write a Rotten Tomatoes review." No critics do this.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

A class-action suit against major entertainment companies by people with disabilities might right the ship on this. So would a provision in a revised & expanded Americans with Disabilities Act.

One of the reasons I love Sneakers is what a great team they are. You can see the characters, and the actors, having fun solving problems together, everyone adding their skills to become something better than any one alone could do. Redford’s face in this, as he realizes he does know where he went.
