The odds of Sean Baker winning four #Oscars were pretty solid, so he probably thought about it, but we still need to acknowledge how well he balanced those speeches.

Séamas O'Reilly: Appeasing the far-right won't placate them — they'll just want the next cruelty

A week ago, I had dinner with a key author of the AI consultation. Not just dinner: I berated them for about 7 hours. In return, they gave me a horrid cough. Which is a fair revenge. Anyway, here's a thread about what I took away from the conversation. These are my inferences, not quotes.

Don't understand why a comedian would choose to do crowd interaction.
