There is no version of yourself you could become that would satisfy the people who hate you. So you might as well be who you are.

I should just do every napkin cartoon from here on out about how AI sucks and no one will want to use a regurgitated version lol
Saw a Bioncle lore video in my recommended feed but it's less than an hour long. Somehow that feels too short for "The Insane History of Bionicle".
In the same way Nintendo now lets you run snes and n64 games, I wish Apple (or anyone) would let me relive web 1.0
Starsiege is one of my favorite settings because it's like, "Hey we're gonna do 40k meets gundam meets Terminator" and does it all so well that i'm like, "hell yeah"
We will learn a great deal more about Haley Stevens's character and commitment to democracy in America by observing her actions after she loses Tuesday night.
"Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God's children." —Martin Luther King, Jr.
I think people who do not work in media have trouble grasping how genuinely terrifying it is watching organization after organization (even those ostensibly held by entities able to fund them!) continually get carved down into nothing. Lights going out all over

Five years ago, I ran across a piece of stock footage that defied all conventions. It was beautiful and textured. It was *memorable*. But what can this single video tell us, in context of an entire industry designed to be generic? youtu.be/k3bkCTy9rLk
The Paramount and Warner Bros merger is officially on hold. The merger will not move forward until June 1, 2027 OR until the courts provide a ruling on the lawsuits facing the merger.
Yes, the Problems are bad, but this is no time for radical things like Solutions
[After removing a neck to neck neural plug] "Ahh~" "Don't moan like that. Weirds me out." Okay the new Ghost in the Shell might be good actually.
“A Penn professor thought she’d sell 1000 copies of her ‘Odyssey’ translation. She sold a million this year alone, thanks to Christopher Nolan.” “West Philly's Emily Wilson, who penned a highly acclaimed translation of the epic poem in 2017, is having a big summer.”

A friend of mine (shout out to @netherbi.bsky.social) lent me this book after I expressed interest in reading the original Robert E Howard Conan the Barbarian stories. It compiles the stories that influenced the forgotten 2011 Jason Momoa reboot. (1/4)
We are saddened to hear of the passing of Yuji Ohno. A legendary musician who was the heart & soul of most of the music of Lupin the Third for nearly 50 years will certainly live on as his music & themes will continue to be synonymous with the famous thief.
First comment panel for the year. Got to make it count.
The Markiplier situation with Iron Lung shows just how efficiently movies can turn a buck into two, but the entire industry is on fire because no one wants to just get rich, they want to turn fifty cents into a billion.
Bluesky-exclusive update: The next Ultra Retrospective is a remake of the very first one I did on Return of Ultraman. It's always stuck out like a sore thumb compared to the others so this has been a long time coming.

Rando thought: Something I always loved about the old Ultraman show that I am very surprised has not only not been done to death, but barely touched is that the show format was very much like if one of the members of Challengers of the Unknown was Clark Kent.
5) Ultraman (1966) "Ultraman, you truly have come to love Earthlings." 10/10 (I'll write a more detailed review on this along with the Type B and C suit appreciation)
Terrorism is the calculated use of violence or threat of violence to induce fear, intending to coerce governments or societies to achieve political, religious, or ideological goals. It often targets civilians and critical infrastructure to disrupt safety and advance specific agendas.
So, fun fact: I went back and played Morrowind with basically no mods (I had a patch that fixed a few minor bugs and extended the draw distance) and, like, holy shit it fucking rules
Herbert@xxgr1llmast3rxx.bsky.social · 7mo agovery funny to watch a movie with a meticulous and loving 20 minute long silent film sequence that recreates many of the best special effects of the era and then come home and read this bethesda interview
