All I want is for Nick Freno: Licensed Teacher to come out on DVD/streaming.

This is like right wing grifting but for nerd shit that doesn't matter

[Nerdcognito @Nerdcognito]

If you don't think Brennan Lee Mulligan removing rolls from a Critical Role episode was intended to be destructive to the hobby you haven't been paying attention.

"Dice are actually ableist."

No love for the hobby, only for their agenda & graft.

They. Don't. Really. Play.

For the record, it's the Hard Rock casino

We’re all appropriately charmed by the German tourist exploring Georgia, but I met 4 separate guys in Spain who were going to be road tripping through not-super-cool America this summer between matches, and they were ALL excited

One asked me if I knew of anything fun to do in Biloxi

So I think we might have thousands of these folks around this year and it’s our patriotic duty to show them the coolest, weirdest corners of the US

[Renaud Foucart @RenaudFoucart]

This supposedly "classic" book has an incredible number of hallucinated references. It's as if he's summarizing books that never existed in the first place.

It's unfortunately The Big Bang Theory

When was the last time a popular show had a good final season and a satisfying finale because I genuinely can’t remember.

[WillyWillz @ReallyIsMyName]

I think the stakes of making an adaptation that isn't faithful are just really low and people should not take it personally. I used to hate Disney's Hercules until I grew up and realized "I Won't Stay (I'm in Love)" is a jam and "Jerkules" is a funny joke

[Jackie Chea ⚖️ @Fair_and_Biased]

OK, I’m just flipping tables at this point.

I know people are discussing Helen’s (and now Clytemnestra’s) ethnicity, but here’s a different complaint:

Why would you have the SAME ACTRESS play two sisters who are NOT TWINS?

It’s like every decision is meant to take the audience out of the story.

We have rap.

We have random American accents.

We have anachronistic language like “Let’s go!” & “Daddy.”

We have one actress playing two characters that are not identical nor twins.

We have a female presumably playing a male.

I take this stuff very personally because of my obsession with epic literature and mythology.

I really would love to be wrong.

I’m probably going to give Christopher Nolan my ticket money just to see what he comes up with, but I’m afraid this is Rings of Power 2.0.

Why do babies insist you stand when you hold them? wtf is the deal??

[WillyWillz @ReallyIsMyName]

Was Gaston racist against The Beast in "The Beauty and the Beast"?

[WillyWillz @ReallyIsMyName]

The Blue/Red Button Test is also not really a Game ame Theory problem (I did take that class)

[WillyWillz @ReallyIsMyName]

I've never taken a philosophy class before (STEM-lord) so take this with a grain of salt, but I think the Blue/Red Button Test is a better tool for teaching philosophy than the Trolley Problem, at the least you get folks thinking through their personal ethics

Sometimes chips and queso hits so good I can’t believe it is an over the counter medication and you don’t even need a prescription.

@rickypop I read this to my wife and she said it's okay for you to have secrets.

"The Simpsons is a kid's show"
That wasn't really my mother's (or my friend's mother's) attitude growing up in the '90's 🤷‍♂️

[Graham Clark @grahamcclark1]

As noted in the next tweet, the Simpsons is a children's show made and supposedly set in the '90s and really set in its writers' childhoods - Mad Men is a grown up (more or less) show supposedly set in the Long '50s and really set in the Long '00s when it was made

Watching the pilot of #ER John Carter's coat doesn't even fit that well for being tailored

I'm pretty sure every time someone programs or does complex analysis quickly they're using AI. Also, the holodeck relies heavily on gen AI.

[Raymond Arnold @Raemon777]

I used to think the Star Trek world was unrealistic in terms of how it used AI. But some recently argued to me, it's actually very straightforwardly a world where everyone knows they *could* build more advanced AI, but, they know that the alignment problem is unsolved.

So, they don't.

Instead, they limit themselves to LLM-like AI, which operates on discrete tasks.

Data is a one-of-a-kind wonder people don't know how to replicate. Pretty much every other time someone tries to build advanced AI, something goes wrong. (Data's creator made a second android, named Lore, who was erratic and manipulative, and eventually turned against the humans)

Most other advanced AI in the show either grow into godlike power outside human control, or get shut down while weaker but would clearly become a problem if unchecked. (V'ger, Moriarty).

The more I looked at it, the more it seemed Canon Star Trek just straightforwardly depicts an adult civilization that has chosen to be careful.

@Sugarrush_13 @hecubian_devil What other explanation is there for him lashing out at her for her panic attack? You don't think the audience is supposed to notice that he had a panic attack last season and this season he is lashing out at others for the same thing?

[WillyWillz @ReallyIsMyName]

The Harry Potter show discourse feels like the same discourse we've been having about TV or Harry Potter projects for the last 10-15 years. Are people not tired yet?

[WillyWillz @ReallyIsMyName]

@tuwhacca_ @9TailedFOXT @PanasonicDX4500 Are you guys even talking about the same thing?
