That was hands down the best halftime show ever. It was filled with so many references to Puerto Rican culture and history. The sugarcane fields, the casita, the streets of NYC, and the power lines. All of it resonated so much. Boricua por siempre.

Seguimos aquí. 🇵🇷

as you watch all of the rah-rah pageantry of the Super Bowl it’s astounding to remember that MAGA is so weird and offputting that they’ve apparently given football to the libs in the national divorce

Every mainstream article/podcast on AI in the arts is like

On the one hand, veterans creators hate it, long-term experts reject it, & these 500,000 consumers all say they hate it

On the other hand, 1-3 indeterminate artists who we won’t name say they’re very excited

WHO’S RIGHT ONLY TIME CAN TELL

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books.

She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it.

It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

I'm glad! Credit where it's due, a lot of that moment was Andrés our actor pushing for it to be what it is in the final episode. I was very happy with the way it came out!

We'll learn more about Adam's family/background in due time, but he is Latin American through his mother's side of the...
Just wanted to say Adam speaking spanish in the latest episode was SOOOOOO cool. I’ve never heard spanish in audio dramas before and it made me so happy :) is he canonically hispanic or latino ???

Spending most of tonight finishing up the script for the last episode of THE HARBINGERS Season One.

Could use some distractions.

Anyone got any questions? #AMA

Among the reasons to love For All Mankind there’s this:

Aleida’s is the immigrant in the US story

Latam kid
Brought here illegally by her father
Endures years of horror brought on by the system & racism
Struggles in poverty before being given a chance

…and then revolutionizes space travel forever

"Sure, ICE is bad, but we need to deport illegal immigrants"

No you don't.

If immigration enforcement leads to concentration camps and roving death squads, maybe it's time to just get rid of the concept of illegal immigration entirely. You've tried it, it's a bad idea in practice, so bin it.

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

“…if I take an episode, that’s taking the episode away from somebody on staff. I work on an overall deal, so I actually don’t make any more money if I write an episode, whereas if they write episode, it adds to their salary.”

What’s the last thing you read that blew your mind?

Can be a novel, a short story, a play, non-fiction, an article, anything!

So long as when you got to the end you put it down and went, “Holy shit.”
