  1. Prikvačeni tweet

  7. So I wrote up my review of Tesla, the weirdo biopic where Nikola Tesla performs a Tears for Fears song. It doesn’t always work, but I like the conceit!

  8. postscript: you often won’t know what the truth is, and you’ll want to hedge your bets! lots of random people believing a thing just shouldn’t be the lodestone for making decisions

  10. compromise is good because it's a strategic calculation for building policy with people you objectively think are wrong, not because it’s how you personally decide what’s right

  11. you can’t say the problem with politics is people making up their own facts AND say the solution is everybody being willing to compromise on what facts are, unless you’re some kind of total social constructionist who thinks planes fly because people believe hard enough

  12. weird as hell when the people denouncing the death of objective truth define “truth” as “whatever is sort of in the middle of what everybody believes"

  15. i feel compelled to inform everyone that Sundance has a film in which Ethan Hawke plays Nikola Tesla singing “Everybody Wants to Rule the World"

  17. Maybe the closest example is actually the opposite: humans performing things that are now mostly digitized, like phone operators and bank tellers and secretaries.

  18. I mean, what’s the past equivalent of that? There’s obviously obsolete tech in films, but the ‘50s didn’t have five different kinds of telephone call with different feature sets and cultural connotations. Or maybe it did, and the nuance is just completely lost on me?

  19. I want a time machine specifically to jump forward 50 years and see how people experience movies that casually tie plot points to Twitter and YouTube and Facebook.

  21. For Day 3, Sundance AI Dungeon is rewriting Shirley, Josephine Decker’s fictionalized portrait of Shirley Jackson. Honestly it grasped the concept of this film almost perfectly.
