‘Bring balance to the force’ yeah Lucas knew he was going full-on Marxist, had to tone it down a little. Dialectical materialism is literally the force. Hold on I’m confused. Where’s Hegel at? Oh yeah he’s in the Sarlacc. Up for a good 1000 years with some popcorn?
Would like to clarify that I’m against organised religion generally (my dad was a Calvinist who believed in predetermination) but I do believe lifelong faith in something bigger than yourself, for the greater good, is an admirable human endeavour +
Almost cried when Pope Francis comforted a crying boy because his recently-passed father wasn’t a Christian, so he was scared his dad wouldn’t go to heaven. The Pope’s response was that God is a loving father above all and would allow a kind, loving father into heaven regardless

I never hear anything about Arcade Fire from #musictwt
One of the best modern bands? They’re so influential they were the inspiration for the name of Black Mirror. The Suburbs is a masterpiece full of pre-Trump prescient songs. They’re the modern Talking Heads for fuck’s sake

We definitely don’t need a sequel to this already-perfect film, but I will never complain about more Villeneuve

Dopamine Chamber is a great album but I think it’s impossible to top Romance. Just banger after banger

Really want to see Wildwood at the cinema but I have no one to go with, and since it’s technically a kid’s film, I can’t go alone. I’ll look like a nonce

If you’re of the opinion that The Beatles are overrated, just watch one documentary that delves into their creative process. They’re an actual miracle of a band
Music is subjective but "the Beatles are overrated" is the clearest signal anyone will ever give that they simply don't know what they are talking about.

Everyone at my new job is pro-AI. Looked at me like I’m insane for never using ChatGPT. The more I feel like a Luddite the more I’m put off writing my own AI-based-sci-fi, this isn’t fair

Early 2000’s vibe with a late 2020’s aesthetic, and it isn’t jarring. Is there anything she can’t do

If I were a salmon, out of these uncountable numbers, I would be the one to get skinned alive by the bear
We’re in the worst timeline but the silver lining is that everything the current Pope says goes hard as fuck
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

It upsets me that Andy Weir has such an abysmal writing style, because he makes the science inform the narrative in so many interesting ways. The Martian and PHM are top-tier sci-fi stories, but they read like a 14 year old wrote them
Got 4 chapters into Project Hail Mary and I have to tap out . Whole book is just a really long Reddit post . Anyone have any sci-fi recs that are the complete opposite of this Bazinga! ass novel
