History is not only country and destiny, but the small-h histories of the citizens who choose to define the future for themselves. @StephenKing explores this deeply in The Dead Zone, which continues to remain absurdly relevant.

Kant, Hegel and Deleuze walk into a bar. The bartender says "what'll you have?"

Kant says "I'd like the representation of a beer."

Hegel says, "I'd like a beer, as long as it is also not beer."

Deleuze hiccups and says, "what's the difference?"

@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN The real question is which language to choose? I prefer english so basically only the main girl's lines are synched and the reat of the world is surreally dubbed around her

My LinkedIn may be silent, but my twitter will be unequivocal: I HATE this push for AI. Not even LLMs as such, but this weird snivelly, dumb-dumb obsession with what is clearly something that, if used how they want, will be bad in almost every HUMAN way possible

[Harrier Du Bois @NicholasDenardi]

I dont want AI to write for me, plan for me, schedule for me, order food for me, make fake pictures of me, make designs for me, produce lifeless embarrassing video clips for me, shop for me, communicate for me after I'm dead and on and on. I feel like I'm losing my mind

It's wild to be standing next to the captain of the titanic, knowing whats about to happen, and watch him grin ear to ear, flip you off, pants you, take money from your pocket, and turn his giant wheel to go dead-on into the iceburg while he sprouts wings and flies back into hell

[Harrier Du Bois @NicholasDenardi]

My subway take is that stephen king is elevated literature

I watched “The Long Walk” on the plane. It was great. I was imagining something like “The Running Man,” another King adaptation—a “reality show” esque sci-fi story of the 1980s era of TV broadcast dominance (a critique on media)—but it was completely different. It’s about young lonely people, burdened with trauma and worries, who just keep walking through life (the long walk). The perspective and background of the organizers or the spectators aren’t shown; the film maintains a strict distance from the roadside. The camera simply stays close to the boys and walks by their side until the very end. The direction is very different from The Hunger Games. Director Francis Lawrence is clever. Within the absurdity of this game, the youths help each other, understand one another, reflect on their past, and come to realize the “path” that stretches toward tomorrow. Dropping out isn’t just the end of one person—it’s passing the baton and entrusting their “will” to the winners. It’s a meta, philosophical film about friendship and growth and also a declaration of war against the adults. In a way, it’s close to “Stand by Me.” David Jonsson, a big favorite of mine, gave an amazing performance too. Cooper Hoffman was also great. And of course, Mark Hamill, too. I’ll watch it again in theaters. Highly recommend.
