I have written the following ideas several times before, so apologies if you've read this before. But if you take Texas and Oklahoma (very generally speaking here, and excluding islands of big cities and college towns) and just sweep to the East right to the sea, you have a massive bastion of...

I thought the conclusion was fine, and slightly relieved by it. All the emotions were earned, and as strong as the graphic realism. I had questioned a season 2, as actually needed with how strong season 1 was, but even though some elements repeated, what also repeated is how good everything was...

In the Good Ole Days (I'm thinking like, say, a few months back), it seemed to me there was somewhat of a bipolar balance between thumbs up/thumbs down, AI will give us utopia/AI will be worse than the Trump cult, in the stream of essays on our AI children. If you don't know, concerns are...

Barry Lyndon is basically my "co-equal" favorite film (with 2001: A Space Odyssey, and also equal in just as much being a trip into another time and space, into a world, like no other period film. Kubrick always intended his films to only be seen in a theater, so you get right in that way...

Yes! I've had those, and it was sometimes a dream mashup with a giant, empty factory. I'll visit that thread later when I have more time.

This could be interesting, at least possibly, as it reminds me of some dreams I used to have. Also reminds me in a different way of a very fun sort of non-horror but Existential Angst game I played call The Stanley Parable.

That's a remarkably worthless "edgy" post, with a tart twist of pop Ludditism. The whole and all parts of the sentence are unintentionally funny, but especially "competency porn."

Rather funny but good analysis:

Yes, though I was behind the curve until this hit YT Meme-fame, I am hugely impressed with this group. While I like the looping (Robert Fripp needs to see and know about them, and I am sure he does by now), and the microtones, I am thrilled just as much by the polymeter stuff. I like the...

Great video, worth your time, but if you want to get to the astounding, unprecedented photos, that is about 12 minutes in:

No, but I just read about it and may well give it a go. Also considering a show called Bait, which a friend says is more lightweight level of comedy.

Review and commentary regarding one of the most important recent books on American/Trump Cult/Republican denial and sabotage of science: https://3quarksdaily.com/3quarksdaily/2026/04/science-under-siege-michael-mann-and-peter-hotez-review.html#more-301663 Some long excerpts of the article...

It's quite good, and while I am no big Seth Rogen fan, he has hit a rich target field of idiocy in the stench of what I call "Hollywood product," with some of the sharpest black comedy we've ever gotten from TV. Not digress too much on this, but I am really pleased with the recent rise of superb...

Please don't use X, it's immoral to do so.
