If you have @dropout.tv I can't stress how important this collection is. If you don't have a sub this is worth checking out anyways. "It's Such A Beautiful Day" might be one of the best animated movies ever made! (Not an exaggeration, just objective fact) "World of Tomorrow" too! Glorious stuff!

I love you too, Robocop

I love you.

a lot of talk about people getting more insane but nobody willing to link it to the day in middle school when we were led into a cave to glimpse our future self and decide whether or not we believed in determinism. sometimes I think I’m still back there. what “choice” did I make?

Blame the compositions on me but everything else is the fault of a camera I built myself! #ShittyCameraChallenge

Stripped out the lens holder fixture with a knife and was able to (sort of) put the lens in! Let's get some film into this!

Google's move to AI means traditional SEO doesn't work anymore so every big company is now desperately doing Reddit AMAs to try and get their responses ingested by the Gemini slop machine and farted out in AI summaries

One of the things I find so off-putting about AI generated imagery is just how overgreebled it is, it always adds too much detail, and when it comes to trying to depict food, it ends up looking like it's crawling with insects or triggering trypophobia, it's extremely off-putting.

Hey man, maybe just make the sandwiches and take a pic of them.

Just finished a 30 ROCK rewatch and Jenna was MVP this time around.

Stop calling it a 'deck', it's a PowerPoint presentation. You can't make it sound cool because (a) this is a workplace, nothing is cool here (b) it's a PowerPoint presentation

Emily Wilson gets one more piece on The Odyssey and then she needs to move on and let us know what she thinks about Mallrats

Writing fiction in any genre should be a purely human exercise. If you use AI to generate *any* dialog, story ideas, character shapes, *anything* creative, you're betraying the very concept of artistic expression. This is a bright flashing red line for me. www.wired.com/story/the-bi...

‘Everyone Is Doing It’: The Truth About AI in Hollywood

Puck’s Matthew Belloni says AI has quietly become part of everyday filmmaking. The battle now isn’t whether Hollywood will use the technology—it’s who controls what’ll come next.

I read the whole thing twice and still don't know if it's supposed to do that or not I feel like it's not

I've accidentally discovered that fans of Glen Hansard are mass-reporting social media comments pointing out his predilection for teenage girls. I don't even know what to say about this. They're like Michael Jackson fans who smell worse

Let's recreate Tarkovsky's Stalker in Big Walk.

🔴🟡🔵 BIG WALK 🔴🟡🔵 Out now on Steam, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. Hooray!

If you or a chill person you know are going for a Big Walk please consider letting me know if there is room for a Dave-type in your group.

Chris Person@papapishu.bsky.social · 2d ago

Big Walk is so good dude.

Big Walk is included in Playstation Plus' Monthly Games. Now all I need is friends.

"I'm entitled to whatever I want whenever I want it for any reason and I don't care what satisfying these urges does to me or the world" well okay dude, seems like there's something deeper going on here, but that's just my take

People who want you to speak kindly about dead abusers wouldn’t have wanted you to say it when he was alive either. Hearing about abuse is uncomfortable, they don’t know how to feel or respond and so they prefer the culture of silence that allows abusers to operate.

It's too warm. This is my plan for the day while I sit in the shade by a fan.

So… they’re working

So exhausted already by the meme that the "tells" of gen AI writing are when something is structurally aping the way a decent professional writer writes, rather than when it's meaningless word salad. (You will take my em dashes, sets of three, and lack of typos from my cold, dead hands.)

Julia Serano@juliaserano.bsky.social · 3d ago

nothing shouts "I don't read much" more than when you equate em-dashes with AI. as Kat says here: 1) AI uses em-dashes BECAUSE AUTHORS USE THEM & AI IS TRAINED ON OUR WRITINGS! 2) "AI checkers" are complete bunk (just another AI bullshit machine), 3) this is not a "list of three" haha

you know what i fear? abandonment. good luck getting any mileage outta that one from the safety of your fruity lil death machine

oh you’re not gonna stop at the stop sign. ok well then you’re gonna hit me. and sugar you had just better hope you kill me

i bring a sort of ‘i fear neither pain nor death’ energy to the pedestrian/driver interaction that drivers don’t really like

A few months ago I got scolded by a guy in a bookshop because I called The Odyssey "fantasy", he was angry & kept stressing *MYTHOLOGY* when he spoke about it. Then his manager got involved, stressing *CLASSICAL LITERATURE* instead. As I left they were both still arguing. I didn't buy the book.

As a cyclops truther I like that Homer’s Odyssey is listed as non-fiction

I should probably take some photos for this exhibition I said I'd do at the end of the month...

Hate to admit this person from Non-Dublin has some points here. Nowhere is the Dead Dublin Theory better illustrated than the proliferation of new pubs done up to look like old pubs imo. Toxic to native fauna but serving the customer base it seeks. www.westernpeople.ie/opinion/dubl...
