I write screenplays and make YouTube videos about movies—usually from a leftist perspective. Yes, even the dinosaur movies. He/him.
They didn't just rip it off, they ripped it off and *made it worse*
'Star Wars: Visions' has been accused of ripping off fight choreography from a fan film for one of its episodes
• The fan film was made by 'Dune' stunt double Lorenz Hideyoshi
• The 'Visions' short was made by Indian animation studio 88 Pictures and directed by Ishan Shukla

I like how these guys get to have it both ways
they get to inflate the bubble via broad product misrepresentation and bogus math
then dole out sage warnings about a looming problem they created as if they played no role in it

throughout this decade-long war of attrition against sesta, fosta, osa, etc. moral panic over sex work has been manufactured as cover for risk-management, more or less, for investment firms. the issue is ideological, but not in the obvious way; an open internet can't be totally financialized
The truth is, way too many journalists & content creators sat there and said nothing when SESTA-FOSTA passed, when OSA passed, when OF nearly lost porn due to paypros, even during this summer’s Collective Shout situation. A slow apocalypse for the free and open internet has been unfolding for years

Not sure what the point of "Dead Birds" is. It's a big pet peeve of mine when movies choose to depict the Confederacy, but for no particular reason. It deliberately evokes the horrors of slavery and yet has absolutely nothing to say about it (save to spare us from caring about most of the victims).

Mamdani is a child of privilege therefore his socialism is cosplay designed to rile up downwardly mobile youngsters into stealing money from job creators. Wilson is poor and her socialism is just a way to get job creators to pay for her expenses.
You guys realize that taxing people to pay for services isn't socialism, right? This is just how governments work.

Not at all the main (or even one of the lesser) points here but "The Social Network" is basically unwatchable now. The fictional Zuck kept the site ad-free for as long as humanly possible, but in real life THE WHOLE POINT was to build the most unscrupulous set of billboards in history.
The most horrifying AI slop of ICE raids you can possibly imagine is wildly viral on Facebook, collectively totaling tens of millions of views from a single account. First spotted by @chadloder.bsky.social

AI-Generated Videos of ICE Raids Are Wildly Viral on Facebook
An account is spamming horrific, dehumanizing videos of immigration enforcement because the Facebook algorithm is rewarding them for it.

The physical abuse of children by adult men is an actual plank of all right-wing political thought, a thing they believe in strongly and govern to enable, not just something thousands of them happen to do. Fascism is a politics of violent mastery and no one's easier to do that to than a child.
NEW FOIA Files SCOOP: The FBI redacted Trump’s name—and the names of other prominent public figures—from the Epstein files under two privacy exemptions before DOJ & FBI concluded “no further disclosure” of the files “would be appropriate or warranted.”

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,
