does BlueSky have a zoomer Beatles fan contingent too or is that just a quirk of Twitter
formatting bibliographies while listening to Double Fantasy is as close as I get to Zen
DID YOU KNOW that TLC's iconic 90s hit "Waterfalls" was based a 1980 Paul McCartney song? www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybvd...

When I was growing up, American conservatives were the "don't tread on me" party. Don't take my guns, don't tell me what to do, get out of my life. I'm not sure that even Donald Trump's renowned charisma is enough to explain the sudden shift to "comply or be summarily executed"
You'd think the 20th century would have taught us to avoid concentrating power in one person's hands

God Only Knows is secretly a 9.9 rather than a 10 because Mike Love's braying ba ba bas are annoying
Yeah if even the smarter students are doing it then we're truly fucked. Schools apparently can't stop it or just won't take the necessary steps. US politicians are completely ignoring AI because they are too busy starting fights with allies. The youth are not prepared for the world to come.
In the past week alone I've edited two essays by 16-year-olds and one PhD thesis on cybersecurity that were clearly 100% written by AI. I do not look forward to living under governments and a private sector that are functionally illiterate
Supposing the university system does survive another generation, how could it withstand the ascendence of Gen Z and Alpha, whose cognitive capabilities, by all accounts, extend as far as their last ChatGPT prompt?
Gotta be the most underappreciated Beatles album
Just noticing the Beatles interpolation in Frank Ocean's Blonde ("White Ferrari"). Music is so rad
bluesky has lots of annoying people but twitter has lots of genuinely evil people
Finding myself forced to apply for jobs for the first time since the early pandemic (April 2020). Academic editing and writing work is being eliminated by the machines. If anyone has any tips or tricks or JOBS for 2026, let me know
The write-up for #1 is really great. I'm waiting for it to happen to me too
Merry Christmas, everyone! Drink some eggnog (or peyote) and watch this with your kids archive.org/details/yell...
it seems like K-pop is just American pop but...Korean. is there some artistic advance there that I'm not seeing
finally carried out my months-long plan to eat mushrooms and watch Kpop Demon Hunters. kind of anticlimactic tbh
The reigning presidential administration seeking an emergency order from the national supreme court to block funding for a food assistance program. Great country, good people
This is not a good look, but: I am out of money and my car has broken down for the third time in a month. I have just moved across the country. I need a little help to make it through September: gofund.me/47e4a1856
Deleuze/Guattari have the best/worst
New at the WERNER HERZBLOG: a second post about AGUIRRE, THE WRATH OF GOD, about the ephemeral nature of freelancing, about your work disappearing, and about staking my claim on the phrase "Cinema of Punishment" much like Warren Beatty sitting on the Dick Tracy rights
"hard to read" is ridiculous. anything longer than a tweet and people act like it's Ulysses. anyway, another great piece!

Thanks, no, that's great! Got my own private review haha. I like his caricatures of Western archetypes/stereotypes, as in Okja. Portraying Americans as broadly as we have historically depicted other cultures. Great production design and sympathy for critters.
What did you think of Mickey 17?
