Ace, casting Batman's shadow.

If the Pet Shop Boys song 'Left To My Own Devices' was a person, it's me.

I worry that this is the most right I have ever been.

Balancing the sycophancy of AI by telling everyone that they suck. Thus equilibrium is maintained.

I don't have children so feel free to ignore me but I find the "AI will raise my kids for me!" stuff just bone-shatteringly sad.

I'm heavily invested in superhero comics, but don't care for most superhero movies. Still I watch them all eventually! That's the long tail of my PhD I guess.

I'm amused by the possibility of someone who wants to watch THE DEVIL'S MOUTH (teens trapped in a cave by a shark) accidentally watching THE DEVIL'S BATH (historical drama based on the book Suicide by Proxy in Early Modern Germany) instead.

It's simple enough: if tech companies want all the sweet, sweet data I slough off every day, they should pay me for it.

"It is the triumph of the speculative sci-fi scenario over human solidarity: why fix the world we inhabit when we can spend billions preventing a robot uprising that exists only in the imagination?" aeon.co/essays/silic...

"Nobody likes you. Everybody hates you. You're gonna lose." This includes a new commentary track by me and @joshnelsonfilm.bsky.social! We talk all things noir and the movie's Big Divorce Energy.

No one is interested in my sequel pitch for HONEY I KEPT THE KIDS AT THEIR REGULAR SIZE.

"The vast majority of people who work in film and television are not studio executives, nor are they famous actors. They are, overwhelmingly, blue-collar workers, freelancers, and small businesses. And they are in free fall."

There’s a Blue-Collar Hollywood—and the Paramount Merger Will Kill ItHollywood isn’t all glamour. It’s thousands of line workers. And a Paramount takeover of Warner will make their lives even more precarious.newrepublic.com

She's a 10 but when she types out laughter she ends on an H instead of an A.

Here's a little proof of life from way back at the table read.

HP Lovecraft answered this question back in 1927.

What Would It Mean to See a New Color?A new color called olo can be described as the “greenest green.” It can never be captured by a camera, but its development tells us a lot about how vision works.www.newyorker.com

Looks like we have a release date for the movie I wrote! (It's still ages away, of course, because everything takes a million years.)

I would've watched a season two, but WONDER MAN season one had a great ending – one that felt like a nice goodbye to the MCU.

No, no – I said "vigil ante"! I light candles to remember poker players.
