couple of thoughts on Oscars.

Timothée Chalamet is dating a Jenner and just mocked opera and ballet.

Michael B. Jordan’s work on The Wire still haunts me.

Jenner-adjacent is not fit to share the same space/time continuum as #DavidSimon #audacityofdespair adjacent.

Where’s my ballot?

What people don't seem to grasp, intentionally or not, is that when it comes to creativity, “getting stuck” is ultimately a part of the process. Obv you dont want to stay stuck forever and get through it at some point, but.. 1/4

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without AI, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems, or saying...

SIMON: You mentioned that.

SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.

SIMON: I don't think AI can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.

SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from Scene 5 to Scene 6 and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an AI and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition.

SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

SHAPIRO: You would rather put a gun in your mouth.

SIMON: I mean, what you're saying to me effectively is there's no original way to do anything, and...

SHAPIRO: No.

SIMON: Yes, you are.

SHAPIRO: That seems like a kind of absolutist take.

SIMON: Not only, I think, is it a fundamental violation of the integrity of writers and also of copyright - you know, when I sold all the scripts I sold - you know, 150 to HBO and, you know, maybe another 50 to NBC - I didn't sell them so that they could be thrown into a computer with other people's and be used again by a corporation.

SHAPIRO: So would you ever agree to a contract that saw any role for AI at all?

SIMON: No, I would not. If that's where this industry is going, it's going to infantilize itself. We're all going to be watching stuff we've watched before, only worse.

Acabo de terminar #TheDeuce entre sonrisas y lágrimas de pena y emoción. Es una serie que me ha impactado mucho, me ha hecho ver y aprender, a tener empatía y a crecer como persona. Siento que se ha producido un cambio en mi persona.

This comic is for the “comics are just for kids” critic

100% any #LawandOrder super fan will go Gaga for this book. Obnoxiously realistic procedural storytelling. I never read the #DavidSimon novel, but this is a GREAT read!

This meme shows President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in war-torn Ukraine wearing olive-colored clothing and a camo bulletproof vest surrounded by soldiers in battle gear. President Zelenskyy is looking solemnly at the camera. The caption above reads "Here's my fucking suit! You draft dodging Motherfucker!"

Who's David Simon? I don't watch many US TV shows, so I had to look him up.
