‘Quentin Tarantino’s first play’ feels less of a sales pitch than a cutting insult a particularly savage English teacher might give

There’s no sausage more likely to be lost at the back of the fridge than a solo sausage.
"By using AI, tasks like essays that used to take hours can be completed in minutes!" Sure, like how if I arrive at the gym and immediately go for a shower, my workout is done in record time. And if I throw my sandwiches straight in the bin, I can finish my lunch in under 10 seconds.
This “AI needs to slow down” situation is a grift and I’ll fight any knife wielding AI robots that think otherwise
Not so smug about the believability of them continuing to build Jurassic Parks now are we
I used to be scared of AI but I’m pretty sure I can outrun both Arnie and Robert Patrick at this point
I love it when exposition scenes just sound like the writers room explaining the plot to each other
Tim Curry was The Rocky Horror Show at the Royal Court over 50 years ago and then he was The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Anyone who has ever attempted it - the role or the show - has been chasing his tail ever since. RIP
If I think about anything more than I should it’s how terrifying Wilford Brimley is in The Firm
the thing I feel about LLMs (for me, in terms of why I have no interest in using them myself) is that, as someone who has cycled through being very out of shape and very extremely in shape several times in my life, I know what happens when you stop using a muscle
House spider season just commenced with one so large it was waving its legs around and yelling about its rights
We need a word for when a plot twist doesn’t work not because it’s obvious, but because you just don’t care
This is brilliant. “Lemon of Troy” is so monumental to me, so immaculate, that it’s hard to imagine someone had to craft it into existence. It’s also wild how it now feels like it came from some distant cultural past - it’s so “worn out vhs tape” coded. youtu.be/5yHLoPKdzRY?...

You think you’re prepared for the day that there’s a spider in your vocal booth. But you’re not
It’s three years today since I posted my first YouTube video. Which is odd, because I’m pretty sure I’ve been working on my latest one for four. #b3d
i still just really feel like AI stuff is basically illegal. like I don't think a good faith interpretation of "fair use" entails vacuuming up everyone's intellectual property to build your chat bot. that sounds wrong to me
This video has been delayed by a few days due in part to a fox urinating on my vocal booth

This is, if you think about it, sort of the opposite of The Producers.
Art is meant to either worry you by nailing an unexpressed or suppressed anxiety, or reassure you that you’re not alone in worrying, offering strength in numbers, don’t fuss, we’re all in this together. AI can’t do either.
The stuff that LLM AI can simulate is blandly confident mush, like forms and pitches and reports. Output where the human needs to be masked or boiled out in order to inspire confidence within a closed system. That’s not what art does, ever.
When we die we get points deducted for using the words “nepo baby”, “rizz” and “Hollywood is cooked”.
