The utility of social media is over and until then you should trust nothing and consider it a weapon and a drug.

A Japanese Hotel famous for robot workers had to fire half of them years ago, because they essentially kept calling in sick, ie breaking.

I just found out that there are people who organize their vinyl collection by color and I am going over to their house.

Do you want to get away from the algorithmic spoon feeding of passive music listening?

A friend asked how I discover new music because I essentially only listen to vinyl & am not on streaming platforms.

Vinyl is a pretty popular hobby; old-timer DJs may be able to offer some helpful advice!

Not only is it becoming my favorite stand-up set of all time, Conor O'Malley has got to be the greatest satirist ever?

It's unfair to take this clip out of context of the entire show but it's just so unbelievably transgressive to insert something so technologically politically divisively truthful.

I need to tell you, this is my energy all day every day. I have no idea what this is, who this is, but I adore it and it's in my brain constantly. "That's not fair" "I need to calm down" "Everything's fine" "I'm an adult"

It's very interesting how hard it is to be happy & how easy it is to find joy.

Y'all, I don't think we need to be struggling so hard, but we just lay back & pretend we're in a floaty; the river just takes over.

There was an inflection point in the mid 2010's where people realized that fame was a prison, but almost everyone getting famous realized it too late.

They should have listened to Smashing Pumpkins.

If there is one thing I've learned from being online since about 1986, it's that you always engage banjo content.

Horror movies. It feels like the genre woke up and the world started accepting them. They are niche but the impact specific horror films have is gigantic. I saw the TV glow is a great example. These films are culturally speaking to people.
the thing about avatar not having cultural impact is that i don't think anything really does anymore. in the post-pandemic age what really has popped in that way?

barbie.

that's it.

what did studios learn from that? be more colourful, bright, joyous?

no. make a bunch of movies based on toys. 🙄

Youtube is FINALLY shutting down AI Slop channels. It could be a WILDLY significant amount of content, so it may take time. It's weird that I'm focused on this Alan Watts mimic channel. I want to have a conversation with that owner.

People who don't want to exist talking to something that doesn't exist for advice about that is more depressing than dystopian fiction could have mustered.

I'm just realizing Trump is labeling things like "West Wing" in rococo cheap gold because his eyesight is failing and his dementia means he has no idea where he is.
