It’s interesting to me that Nick Frost can be in a tv show and participate in a scene with a ‘joke’ in which someone asks a trans woman if they read harry potter... and then goes on to join the new Harry Potter cast…
I dunno I could face myself.
wish I could tell my younger self that I was going to almost exclusively wear black t-shirts and floral Lucy & Yak trousers this decade. I have so much stuff to put on Vinted 😭
The Paul Giamatti episode of the new season of Black Mirror (Eulogy) is terrific. Maybe my favorite since San Junipero
Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.
I keep losing all my saved Instagram recipes because I’m addicted to saving videos of rotund animals to watch when I’m overwhelmed. Help me obi wan k
I would love to grab a drink with the person who writes the copy for Film4 on Sky. “Fact-based…caper” twice in a row, babe? A bold choice. I love it.
Currently waiting for updates on two fairly big life things and the only time I stop anxiously jiggling my leg is when I’m making a list. I’ve made 4 today so far and it’s 3:35am aaaaaaa
The bewildering thing about this AI copyright debate is how rigid copyright rules are in many other areas. If you’re writing a novel and you want a character to sing one line of ‘Gimme Shelter’ in the bath, you have to pay the Rolling Stones about £5000.
If you are having even the slightest doubt about being able to read the Vulture article on Gaiman - don’t read it. It is horrific on an extreme level, know the man is a monster that deserves much harsher justice than he’ll ever receive - as are the people around him that enabled this behavior.
the thing about the Gaiman story, as with so many stories of monstrous men, is that it's the same boring solipsistic pathology over and over and over. they all think that they're God's Specialest Boy and that if they do something, it can't possibly be wrong or bad. it's so pathetic.
This deep dive on Netflix purposely turning movies into barely distinguishable forgettable slop is so insightful, researched & brutally hilarious. A must read if you want to really know what’s happening to the business AND culture of movies.
Forced myself to get to the end of a very disappointing book only to find the author griping in the acknowledgments about how this “isn’t the book [they] wanted to write” … yeah, and it shows, bud 🙃
Joined Twitter in 2009 and just tweeted any old thing that popped into my teenage brain. Now I’m here and suddenly anxious about what to post first 😅 This is me biting the bullet
AI will not destroy jobs, it will actually create jobs. For every AI you have to assign 2 guys to monitor it because it's stupid and sucks ass
