hi @karaswisher.bsky.social let's not pretend you didn't help whitewash tech though. you helped propogate their ideas, legitimize their thinking, & expand their reach. id continue to respect you more if you were as brutally honest about yourself as you are others newrepublic.com/article/2088...

“Let’s not overstate it,” Kara Swisher, who’s been covering tech for three decades, told me. “I never thought they were liberal. You never knew what their politics were. It was a kind of libertarian-light if they thought about it at all.” Swisher’s 2024 memoir, Burn Book: A Tech Love Story, begins with the sentence: “As it turned out, it was capitalism after all.”

im sorry, but WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON IN THE LOWER RIGHT?? even after a scotus ruling, the trump news networks are still trying to make an actual constitutional amendment an issue? no wonder everything is so completely fucked

good god the gotham awards continue to embarass themselves (likely in exchange for those sweet, desperate #sponsor #sellout #dollars). i ADORE michelle pfeiffer but girl is anything but indie OR tv. last year they awarded massive budget studio films. wtf do they even stand for? #filmsky #indiefilms

An image of Michelle Pfeiffer (stunning as always) next to text desperately trying not to call her a legend of TV so they can stretch the truth and give her a TV award. (Her nearly-equally talented husband is the TV guru: David E. Kelley in case you didn't know)

TEXT:
Gotham Television Awards to Honor Michelle Pfeiffer with Legend Tribute
The Gotham Film & Media Institute announced today that award-winning actress Michelle Pfeiffer will receive the Legend Tribute for her culture-shaping contributions to film and television – including her starring roles in Apple TV’s acclaimed Margo’s Got Money Troubles from David E. Kelley and The Madison, Taylor Sheridan's record-breaking series for Paramount+ – at the Third Annual Gotham Television Awards, taking place live and in person on Monday, June 1st at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City.

The Gotham Television Awards Legend Tribute was created to honor television’s most beloved and influential performers. Last year’s inaugural Legend Tribute was presented to Parker Posey in recognition of her storied independent career and standout performance in The White Lotus.

hey @thr.com are y'all SERIOUSLY giving water to this rapist thug's wannabe comeback tour that some PR flack is so desperately pushing to multiple publications? just one of many recent stories from the past year or two that show a comfortable relationship w/ various pariahs. disgusting.

god DAMN it jeff cronenweth WHYYYYYYY (extraordinarily talented DP of The Social Network and Fight Club, among many Fincher films). his dad Jordan shot Blade Runner. no paycheck is worth working with evil. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Clip from article: "Amazon’s purchase of Melania set off a frantic scramble to get as much footage as possible of the first lady in the weeks leading up to the inauguration. It was a chaotic process that involved hiring and coordinating three separate production crews working in Florida, Washington, D.C., and New York City. Each had its own heavyweight cinematographer: Jeff Cronenweth, best known for his collaborations with David Fincher; Michael Mann’s go-to cameraman Dante Spinotti; and Barry Peterson, cinematographer most recently of the infamous Colleen Hoover adaptation It Ends With Us, each shot portions of the film."

god lawd the tech companies are so awful. No wonder Affleck & Damon have been shitting on the big N's script notes. this is actual dialogue from Netflix's new movie THE RIP. I can barely stand to watch anything new. Look at this shit! Affleck/Yeun discuss house lights. NOBODY TALKS LIKE THIS.

A sample of Netflix/Exposition Central's script for THE RIP:
BYRNE
What’s going on, Mike?

RO
God… what the fuck. Sarge, you can’t creep up on someone like that. Damn. These lights is what’s up.

BYRNE
What lights?

RO
Those lights. They all came on at once. It was like a… on, like, a timer or something.

BYRNE
On both sides of the street?

RO
Yeah. Where are the people? I haven’t seen a soul. Where are the cars? You hear this bullshit about the cartels buying up the housing blocks?

oh my god now they're in dune. i completely forgot dana fox worked on the script, noooo wonder it was peak mediocrity. too bad nathan crowley's designs were slathered in so much cgi they looked terrible, i bet he's got some cool drawings. a marc platt production, it certainly was!

still images from the very end of wicked 2 when it looks like elphaba and fiyero are suddenly in the movie dune. they are walking across literal sand dunes in a shift in style and palette from the rest of the movie (save a brief appearance of this weird dune sandland around early act 2)

elphaba wears a sheer hood and holds up her perfectly manicured hand. she's changed costumes and been to the spa since faking her death apparent moments before this but no big deal. still images from the very end of wicked 2 when it looks like elphaba and fiyero are suddenly in the movie dune. they are walking across literal sand dunes in a shift in style and palette from the rest of the movie (save a brief appearance of this weird dune sandland around early act 2)

ew ew EW - whomever is responsible for this headline, guessing apple!, please fire yourself. there will be no welcoming a rebranding of this traitorous bitch into a "millenial founder" media star. at best she's a Millenial Riefenstahl except not talented. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Apple News headline "Editors' Pick. She's the millenial leading a "hostile takeover" of CBS News - and it's made her more controversial than ever. Read in the New Yorker."

i genuinely think this asshole fuck holds his hands like that to keep them from shaking. anyone how has done (or knows anyone who has done) lots of substances knows the body does not like it when you are not under the influence. holding your hands like an idiot is a good way to not see them shaking.

damn didn't know ol' dickens was still writing

Amazon's service audible notifying me that there is a new book from Charles Dickens: "The Cricket on the Hearth' is now available - get it today. Press and hold to see more." I didn't.

lol if fucking dana goldberg gave me notes i'd have burned down my deal too. skydance is a JOKE and their development team is an absolute abomination. as i've said many times, any project of theirs that isn't made by someone like cruise is total trash deadline.com/2025/10/tayl...

Cut to the things that left him feeling less than appreciated under the new regime brought in by David Ellison and Skydance since they took over the game. When Sheridan submitted an early favorite feature script of his, Capture the Flag, he was not happy to have it sent back with extensive notes from Skydance’s Goldberg, now co-chair of Paramount Pictures.

Cinematic Revulsion@cinematicrevulsion· Oct 22

i think if a headline like this has to go out about you then you're not qualified to hold a political office anywhere, much less the US. but hey we have a nazi rapist living in what remains of the white house so who knows anymore. #platner

Cinematic Revulsion@cinematicrevulsion· Oct 6

we're seriously barrelling toward armageddon because a few of these fucking idiot wannabe bros can have their 15 minutes of, checks notes, doing too much HRT and sitting in the audience for actual bro chads hitting each other. dumbest fucking timeline.

a photo of two clowns in the audience for a ufc fight - kash patel (somehow still head of the fbi) and mark zuckerburg (has a better seat than kash lol)

nothing says "these people know what they're doing" like a blurry fucking jpeg on your home page #sphere #spherevegas #wizardofoz

screenshot of Sphere's current webpage featuring an incredibly blurry/low resolution still of the wizard of oz characters. The wicked witch is flying directly at the viewer with... red somethings (slippers? why are there so many?) while the Lion, Scarecrow, Dorothy, Tin Man are all inside a bubble (like Glinda's) floating above the clouds.

just casually reading George Washington's farewell address and these two passages really jumped out at me. not sure why, maybe our current president could tell us. #abolishICE #impeachtrumpandhiscronies #stopSCOTUS #taxtherich #TACOtariffs #fucktrump www.georgewashington.org/farewell-add...

Hence, likewise, they will avoid the necessity of those overgrown military establishments which, under any form of government, are inauspicious to liberty, and which are to be regarded as particularly hostile to republican liberty. In this sense it is that your union ought to be considered as a main prop of your liberty, and that the love of the one ought to endear to you the preservation of the other.

Harmony, liberal intercourse with all nations, are recommended by policy, humanity, and interest. But even our commercial policy should hold an equal and impartial hand; neither seeking nor granting exclusive favors or preferences; consulting the natural course of things; diffusing and diversifying by gentle means the streams of commerce, but forcing nothing; establishing (with powers so disposed, in order to give trade a stable course, to define the rights of our merchants, and to enable the government to support them) conventional rules of intercourse, the best that present circumstances and mutual opinion will permit, but temporary, and liable to be from time to time abandoned or varied, as experience and circumstances shall dictate; constantly keeping in view that it is folly in one nation to look for disinterested favors from another; that it must pay with a portion of its independence for whatever it may accept under that character; that, by such acceptance, it may place itself in the condition of having given equivalents for nominal favors, and yet of being reproached with ingratitude for not giving more. There can be no greater error than to expect or calculate upon real favors from nation to nation. It is an illusion, which experience must cure, which a just pride ought to discard.

watch this texan powerball lottery winner help his neighbors before trump ever does www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

The winning ticket in Texas was sold at a gas station convenience store in Fredericksburg, according to the Texas Lottery. Fredericksburg is located in the Texas Hill Country, about 35 miles northeast of Kerrville, the small city that was hit especially hard during devastating flooding that killed more than 100 people statewide in July.

EU, you're better than this. you're better than US. don't be like the united states and abandon principles because its hard! www.wwf.eu/campaigns/it...

Text from WWF's webpage: "Help us gather evidence that people across the EU care about nature and want strong laws to protect it!

Imagine a day when clean water and fresh air become a luxury. Imagine your favourite spot in the forest - where you unwind, play with your children, or reconnect with yourself - is slowly falling apart. Imagine you can’t eat healthy food because it’s hardly available and unaffordable.

This is what happens when vital nature laws are stripped away. And we only have until 10 September to prevent this!

The European Commission quietly launched a ‘Call for Evidence’ inviting companies, organisations and citizens to have their say on whether EU environmental laws should be weakened."

briefly interrupting my angry political posts to express enthusiasm from the depths of my soul - #BFI will be releasing Terence Davies' masterpiece THE HOUSE OF MIRTH on a remastered blu-ray!!! I've been waiting for this for literally 2 decades. Gillian Anderson is incredible.

since nobody in charge seems to care about doing anything, WHO CAN WE SCREAM AT ABOUT THIS? I'm seriously asking because it feels like we're powerless to do anything while a handful of rich assholes accelerate us into literal extinction #AI #tech #stopAI #peoplenotcomputers time.com/6266923/ai-e...

Screenshot from the article stating:
"The likely result of humanity facing down an opposed superhuman intelligence is a total loss. Valid metaphors include "a 10-year-old trying to play chess against Stockfish 15", "the 11th century trying to fight the 21st century," and
"Australopithecus trying to fight Homo sapiens".
To visualize a hostile superhuman Al, don't imagine a lifeless book-smart thinker dwelling inside the internet and sending ill-intentioned emails.
Visualize an entire alien civilization, thinking at millions of times human speeds, initially confined to computers-in a world of creatures that are, from its perspective, very stupid and very slow. A sufficiently intelligent Al won't stay confined to computers for long. In today's world you can email DNA strings to laboratories that will produce proteins on demand, allowing an AI initially confined to the internet to build artificial life forms or bootstrap straight to postbiological molecular manufacturing."

Cinematic Revulsion@cinematicrevulsion· Aug 3

hot damn #filmsky #moviesky crowd, i know i'm behind the curve here but JOHNNY GUITAR hits hard and is shockingly relevant to our very moment of the rich vs the rest of us. Crawford's a force & the imagery=gorgous dir by Nicholas Ray starring Joan Crawford and Sterling Hayden (maybe never better?)

Cinematic Revulsion@cinematicrevulsion· Aug 1

as #AI always does, it just gives you a "smooth" DNR-type skin & glassy doll eyes. she doesn't look like a person; the backgrounds look like a bad up-rezzed version of MYST (at best), not Oz; look at this late-90s VFX giant head starring as the wizard. does make me want to boop the wizard's nose tho

Cinematic Revulsion@cinematicrevulsion· Aug 1

the folks @ sphere vegas are lying to themselves if they think this looks good. #AI tech blows rotten chunks as usual. this is nothing more than a ludicrously expensive demo for bad tech that should be trashed. nobody wants this - @benmank77.bsky.social you know better #oz youtu.be/0gpwcaNyIrY?...
