Review: All of You (2025) - The Spoilist All of You is a romance movie, and so it is made to destroy you. Everything about it screams that there isn’t going to be a happy ending to this one, and yet you stick

If you haven‘t seen it, reminder that All of You is still on Apple TV in case you want to sob uncontrollably

As evidence, the filing notes a list Mr. Fox compiled of what he called the "craziest" and "other bad" grants, which he planned to highlight on DOGE's X account. He used three dozen keywords, including "L.G.B.T.Q.""BIPOC," "tribal, "ethnicity," "gender," "equality," "immigration "citizenship" and "melting pot." (A majority of the two dozen grants deemed "craziest" related to L.G.B.T.Q. subjects.) In the deposition, Mr. Fox said the list reflected his "subjective" judgment about whether a grant might be out of line with Mr. Trump's executive order. "Crazy' is one way of saying it," he said. "Most incriminating' is another way."

Why did I think they simply canceled all of them. Nope it was discriminatory

When DOGE Unleashed ChatGPT on the Humanities

Huge NYT article on the back story of those two weeks in March/April 2025 when DOGE illegally terminated hundreds of NEH grants. Gift link!!

This is so unbelievably infuriating and depressing. In this reckless, biased, and ChatGPT-based mockery of a process, they cut $450,000 for National History Day, a program in which 500,000 middle- and high-school students participate.

Ich weiß einfach nicht warum du hier nach denen suchst, Franz.

Bin ich der Gesetzgeber?

Und was ist mit der Prostitution Franz? Jetzt mach doch mal was

Im Internet sind so viele komische Männer, da bleibe ich lieber weg.

Das regt dich auf, aber dass Pornographie noch erlaubt ist nicht?

Nein ich bin nicht online.

Lol was

I‘ll watch the pilot on Mon and decide?

Yw! Lmk how you like it?

I do. It‘s uneven at times and it took me a few eps to get into it, but particularly the more episodic ones (ep 4-8) I really liked.

Recap: Starfleet Academy - 1x09 – “300th Night” You know shit goes down when Frakes directs.

And my #StarfleetAcademy recap is also up!

Recap: Shrinking – 3x06 – “Dereks Don’t Die” - The Spoilist Written by C.J. Hoke (who started out as a writer’s assistant on the show in S1, shout out!) Directed by Randall Keenan Winston This is definitely one of the angstiest episodes of Shrinking, which is

My #Shrinking recap is now up on @thespoilist.bsky.social! As teased yesterday it‘s quite an angsty one, but brilliantly written by @cjhoke.bsky.social.

Does anyone wanna read anything on „Vladimir“ and „Rooster“ from the POV of someone in academia? The former is already on Netflix, the latter will premiere tmw but will air weekly for 2,5 months. So idk if it‘s gonna be a think piece after that or if I should inflict more recaps on myself or both.

Bluesky Screenshot - User Sturm Liouville So, der decision tree Algorithmus ist also faschistisch, das Neuro Netz für damage prediction ist dann wahrscheinlich Hitler und das LSTM das Hochwasser prognostiziert Goebbels. Wie schön simpel doch die Welt in den Geschwätz"Wissenschaften" ist

Mal wieder eine Blockempfehlunf

Aber wieso ist KI faschistisch?!
Man lese

Silicon Valley billionaires literally want the impossible Ars chats with physicist and science journalist Adam Becker about his new book, More Everything Forever.

Ich fang jetzt hier nicht wieder an Gott und die Welt zu erklären daher ein paar Leseempfehlungen:

Okay great - Rooster should run till mid May and I‘ll probably take notes while I‘m watching so I can probably deliver something around end of May. I have a conference then and some other stuff but I‘ll be in touch a bit closer if that‘s fine?

100.

Überhaupt arbeitet die KI ja mit bereits öffentlich zugänglichen Daten, KI ist aus Prinzip Unsichtbarmachung - von Arbeit.

Ein Detail am Rande dieser ganzen Geschichte ist ja, wenn die von Wikipedia abschreiben, können die Frauen, die sie „sichtbar machen“ wollen, ja nicht ganz unbekannt sein. Was in dieser Sichtbarmachung also unsichtbar gemacht wird, ist die Arbeit von Aktivistinnen, die das überhaupt erst anstiessen.

If you have no clue what I‘m talking about, both are set on liberal arts college campuses and seem to mainly deal with affairs between colleagues and/or maybe inappropriate behavior towards students but also presumably general campus culture.

I‘d avoid Substack so if @thespoilist.bsky.social would be interested in another weekly and/or @cliocontemporary.bsky.social on a longer piece once they aired in full?

Falls Sie ein paar Historiker*innen brauchen/wollen die sich mit diesem unsäglichen Projekt schon auseinandergesetzt haben…

Yeah I can find several examples within Trek with similar stakes even before the current era.

Entschuldigung ja natürlich! Und sexistisch ja eh, was fällt uns hier ein.
