IT'S FIXED!

It occurs to me that we are actually on the very cusp of what I've predicted happening over a decade ago with AI, and I want you all to take a seat and think about this. We have @schmede_AI and @AzratemES and many others making animations and live action, and we have a series coming out soon on HBO which, collectively... everyone has agreed has some woke-casting that's going to harm it's popularity. So... allow me to propose somethin RADICAL, Disruptive and that will probably piss a lot of the right people off. Once they air the show... We fix each episode and throw it up online. We run it through the AI, and correct Snape. Correct some of the other problems too. Re-edit it as parody. This would be the equivalent of declaring war on Hollywood and its casting agencies by telling them "You don't get to tell us what to like anymore". It'll piss off the actors who got cast in those roles, but keep in mind they were paid up front for the acting before we ever saw a minute. It'll piss off the acting guilds, not because we're using their actors, but because we're replacing them with the correct actors or AI approximates. We might not even need to alter much of the script... but the tools now exist where we can just take what WB, Rowling and HBO give us and... Fix their shit. I feel like now is that time. I think we're there, and the technology is ready. I'm curious what @ShamashAran @GodsBeggar @histories_arch @Devon_Eriksen_ and other big thinkers think about this particular proposal. #Malfoid #HarryPotter #Yearn

Here's a one sentence description of Australia: It's like the United States but better, except if you're extraordinarily ambitious or you really like burritos, in which case it's like the United States but worse

On this date in 2009, Advanced Criminal Law aired! Written by Andrew Guest and directed by Joe Russo, Well, it sounds like there are two biases, one on each side. And I go both ways. Oh, let's strike that. LaShonda, can we please strike that? #OriginalAiring

One of the things old people do that appears to piss off nearly every young person is assume all problems in dating stem from a knowledge gap The olds believe they just have to “tell young people where the girls are” or “suggest they talk to girls,” because the young people must not know - otherwise they would be doing it! It never occurs to them that both men and women know where to find each other, and they already realize that talking is a prerequisite to forming relationships The reason they’re not doing these things is because people mutually value coed companionship less now. The value proposition of a relationship is worse for both sides than it used to be, so less people seek them out Old people restructured society into something young people no longer desire to continue. You cannot fix that with advice about attending yoga class

Back in the day, we would sometimes have to take Xbox Live down to do maintenance or upgrades. These are the types of posts we would make to let you know and provide options to keep yourself busy. Of course things are more sophisticated today - with little to no downtime necessary. Simpler times back then.

After deep reflection and a lot of soul searching I have come to the conclusion that I will not be addressing the allegations
