It's funny how nobody really ever talks about Oonté, the moon's moon. We forget about it entirely most of the time, except when there's a lunar eclipse, and even then nobody actually mentions it. It doesn't even have a Wikipedia page!

Thinking about how I saw RHPS a few times in college in a full audience participation scene which meant I really never experienced it as a _movie_... So last year I watched it properly. Then I rewatched it. Then I rewatched it just for the songs. Then I started watching react videos. Obsessed, yes.
Sean Barrett@nothings.bsky.social · 9mo agoI recently watched Rocky Horror Picture Show for the first time in ~35 years, realized it might have been the first time I've seen it without audience participation. (Not sure how many times I saw it with audience; maybe 1-3?) Anyhoo: What a starmaking role for Tim Curry!

I think folks ignore one big thing in the comparison of Generative AI to Asbestos - because they just think of Asbestos as "that thing that gives people lung cancer in old buildings." When folks argue that AI is 'useful,' Ignoring the ways that I don't accept that premise, Asbestos was useful.
