Oh, did you want a physical copy in case Nintendo decides not to support it anymore? Too damn bad.

It's pretty bullshit that the only way to play Poketopia is to:

1) download it from the Nintendo store

2) buy a physical case, wherein you shall find a little card with a code on it, which will download the game from the Nintendo store

Hasbro’s CEO on J.K. Rowling. We just published our new Decoder interview with Chris Cocks, the head of Hasbro. I asked him directly about how he thinks about author J.K. Rowling’s politics and what it’s done to the Harry Potter f...

cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

Garnish their wages until the debt is paid. If they didn't want to be in the hole for a million bucks, then they should have made better choices.

By the way, that $10,000 is indexed to inflation and updates quarterly.

There's a fix for this, if Congress ever grows a spine.

My personal information is worth, say, $10,000. If a company loses it, they owe me a check for $10,000 and a letter of apology handwritten by the CEO. The same goes for every single person whose data was compromised.

Bigots operate by trying to strip the humanity from anyone in the out group. Pandering to them accepts the framing that oppressed minorities are lesser than the in group.

LGBTQ+ people are part of "everyone."

If you're scrubbing gay people out of your movie, then by definition it's not "for everyone."

If they're going to steal an hour from me, the least they could do was take it from Monday during office hours.

Jobu Tupaki from Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. She's wearing an outfit that's a riot of different colors and styles. That's because she's out there girl-bossing and living her best lives, all at the same time. That's multitasking!

Kasdan: Time to write Star Wars 3. What's the story, George?

Lucas: Our brave heroes travel to Tatooine

K: Again?

L: And rescue Princes Leia

K: …

L: Then they blow up the 2nd Death Star & have a party

Remember, the temporal paradox will return tonight. You may notice anomalies, such as missing time or strange behavior from your pets. You will likely feel tired for the first few days after passing through the temporal displacement field. This is normal for time travel.

Sometimes you got to refresh it a few times. I'm helping by submitting a lot of dumb prompts

Prompt: draw cow tools

Answer: a pretty good ms paint drawing of a cow standing next to objects that have been labeled "tools"

Prompt: A cat that is definitely plotting something 

The "ai" drew a surprisingly good cat with a sinister aura. Vaguely resembles Jabba the Hutt.

Question: what are the worst wishes to ask of a genie?

"ai" responded: wishing for anything bad to happen to your worst enemy (because your worst enemy is always yourself, you just don't know it yet)

That is not what this movie is doing because the ghost of Mary Shelley is also in it as one of the main characters

Screenshot of "your ai slop bores me," a site where you can larp as an llm to answer other people's prompts. I asked "please draw me a horse that's also a cowboy" and someone did a shitty ms paint drawing of a horse in a cowboy hat. 10/10

Rude of you to think I haven't seen other movies before.

I got the reference. It felt weird and out of place to do a Young Frankenstein but in an otherwise serious scene.

This whole movie was a slideshow of references to other, better films, with not nearly enough connective tissue to justify it.

Spoilers below

...

So this takes place in a universe where Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein but also Frankenstein is real? Did those moviegoers bring Molotov cocktails to the theater just in case? Astronaut is a weird profession to mention in the 1930's.

Halfway through The Bride!, everyone breaks out into a musical dance number and Frankenstein's monster does "Putting on the Ritz." Which doesn't even crack my top ten list of strangest things to happen in that movie.
