Chotiner: so you want concentration camps, but where you don't have to see them
A: well, I mean, I guess, when you put it that way-
Chotiner: or at the very least, where no public criticism of the camps is allowed
A: the camp is near a school... so-
Chotiner: okay, got it

And after all that, the Pitt/Cruise AI fight scene appears to have been just digital BG and face replacement on multi-angle green screen reference videos of two real live human stuntees fighting.
In other words, like most AI hype — it was a con. www.shokunin.studio/blog/2026/2/...

I just did the dumbest thing of my entire career to prove a much more serious point.
I tricked ChatGPT and Google, and made them tell other users I’m a competitive hot-dog-eating world champion
People are using this trick on a massive scale to make AI tell you lies. I’ll explain how I did it

I directed a short film this weekend and it couldn’t have been a more positive experience. I’m so lucky to work with incredible actors and a great crew. It’s been a few years since I directed and it was creatively invigorating. Also, this film will be of interest to comics folks.

Difficult to overstate how completely obsessed I was with this album in my 20s. “No Fun/Push It” still the superior and correct form of both of those canonical songs, IMO

Every time this ridiculous item is posted on Bluesky people refer to it as a “baseball card” which makes an already funny object like fifty times funnier and let’s make sure to keep that going.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

The deal was: they demagogue about “illegal aliens,” they militarize the border, they deport people who get reported by their bosses… but they don’t actually go looking for undocumented workers at farms, in kitchens, or on job sites. It was there to discipline labor, not create a shortage of it.
