Amazon started running their confirmation emails through AI because it used to tell me things like, "Your Dr. Easley Cat Litter 18lb bag shipped" and now all that email says is "Your pet and household good shipped"
Did my first and only play of Fire Emblem 3 Houses with Yellow Deer. Which house would y'all recommend for a second playthrough?
Not sure how I feel about Fire Emblem sharing the twist in the Direct, but I'd be lying if it didn't make me even more excited to play the game.
Pretty sure I saw Meghan devour this book in a single weekend.
Got an advance copy of Gretchen Felker-Martin's 'Chimera' and oh my god this book is a ride. Completely arresting from the jump. An eerily ritualistic nightmare in a manor full of heartrending family crime and ancient magic. This shit made me miss smoking. Thanks a ton, @scumbelievable.bsky.social
My favorite football influencers are the ones that support big teams and crash out after every small result because of part of me is like, "Yeah, man, maybe Chelsea will get relegated this season after losing to Spurs in a pre-season friendly. I also would like to see that."
I do think it's telling that a couple months ago Hank Green was almost militantly proud of using AI, but you can tell he's had to soften his language a bit by saying things like he's been "relying too much" on it, and that it's a "bad habit."
Omg not Hank Green using AI for research and calling to his “bad habit” 💀😭🤡
Finally, a streaming service where I can watch The End of Evangelion and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me.
Hideaki Anno’s iconic anime masterpiece Neon Genesis Evangelion is officially coming to the Criterion Channel this September. https://bit.ly/3TuAlnB
So the inquiry into the Korean Football Associations mishandling of the National Team is happening and an email that showed how the KFA fumbled hiring Jesse Marsch was just published. I just fell to my knees at a Walmart.

The reason why Himesh Patel wouldn’t work in this particular version of They Odyssey is because the film’s central metaphor for the fall of western civilization would backfire so hard if Odysseus was POC and not white.
In this piece, I regret the paragraph about the uses of the POC actors - who are all great, but IMO under-utilized (and why couldn‘t Himesh Patel be Odysseus instead?) I still think the film largely wastes its strong cast, but I framed it badly.

Not an expert, but there's definitely a connection between Paramount pausing the WBD deal and the fact that Oracle stock has been in free fall recently, right? Like Oracle stock was being used to help pay for the deal, and now that the stock is losing value, the funds to make the deal dried up?
Had a nightmare last night, but in a weird way it made me want to replay Immortality.
I feel like internally Marvel is really embarrassed about not taking advantage of the fact it could've cast any one of China's top actors to be Shang-Chi, and instead cast the guy from Kim's Convenience because he asked them on Twitter, and they've never really lived that down.
This is literally the plot of the Scarlet Johansson Ghost in the Shell movie specifically.
"Whenever LLMs provided an exogenous reference—that is, answers referencing a different country than the one associated with the language used—LLMs had a clear favorite: AI loves talking about Japan."
If I were Universal I would release an HD version of the Robert Pattinson clip.

Have not been able to stop thinking about the movie Other Mommy, specifically why they chose that title when Other Mother was right there.
I get you don’t want to spoil your movie but you should at least make it so that the replay the hits trailer doesn’t actively make someone remember why they stopped caring about the MCU in the first place.
Congrats to Spain for winning custody of Hatsune Miku
