I had a realization yesterday that The Sorcerer's Apprentice is a great allegory for Generative AI. Mickey pawns off work to an autonomous force only to have that force mindlessly use keep doing that very thing and destroy everything while using up plenty of perfectly good water in the process

Tomorrow is Digimon Day, and for once I’m prepared. 🔥 🦖 🔥 It’s the first of a BRAND NEW VIDEO SERIES all about Digimon Adventure, now uploading for patrons tonight and premiering for everyone else on YouTube tomorrow night. Been hard at work on this for years and I can finally share the results!

I know people are tired and overworked, but I feel like oftentimes they’re offloading a creative (and, on some level, rewarding) activity to free up time that they’ll ultimately spend scrolling on their phones—thereby further reducing their brains to mush. it’s a vicious cycle of meaninglessness

i was really disappointed that Nolan didn’t include anything about the Soggy Bottom Boys or the Mississippi gubernatorial race in his version of The Odyssey. those are really important parts of the original text

I know the Odyscourse has gotten ugly, but I’m just happy everyone is being challenged to talk about a movie for grown ups. Love it or not, we got a hit movie with challenging ideas and characters and dialogue that really merits years of diverse interpretations and opinions. Supergirl would never.
