I saw a post on Reddit that said that “The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.” And I don’t think I’ve ever seen AI described so incisively.

@Criterion When June Squibb picked Godzilla Box Set I got excited like the dvd logo just hit the corner of the screen

I need a definitive list of everyone who grabbed the Godzilla Box Set from the @Criterion Closet.

Elon becomes the world's first trillionaire via an overvalued SpaceX IPO. It allows the billionaires who took Twitter private to cash out after new investors raise the stock price (a pump and dump), and now they're integrating it into indexes so retirees are left holding the bag.

@Be_Radiculous And there's a ghost over mom's sholder:

@Be_Radiculous In the 90s, if parents sat this close it was a con and they were about to tell that even though they're getting a divorce, they won't love you any less.

@NSwerve184446p @AgingRanchHand Siskel and Ebert on the cover is so funny

Jerry Seinfeld is trending because he's a fanatical genocidal Zionist who said "Palestine doesn't exist", so here's a reminder that when he was 39 he groomed a 17 year old and regularly picked her up at her high school, and lied about her actually being older

Watching NYC in the Mamdani era is like seeing another classroom get a pizza party every single week .

The same people who said masks were "literally 1984" think this is fine.

By far the best attribute of Zohran’s mayoral stay so far is the bold “we can just do that” of moments like this.

@VBFK777 @MattZeitlin Elite work in Boogie Nights, Magnolia, and Punch Drunk Love for sure. The rest of his work (TO ME) is: this is a good screen play for a PTA movie, not this is an alite screen play.

That said, nobody in the world a FAR better writer than the Coens.

@VanAllenPlexico @jeff_poor Jeff Poor needlessly publicly outed a man who then killed himself. This bad take ranks low on things Jeff Poor should eternally feel shame over.

@MattZeitlin Charlie Kauffman is a God-tier writer and an extremely good director.
Bong-Joon Ho similar category.
Nolan is a God-tier director who is a good writer.
PTA same.
Spike Lee same.

[Scott @ascottmess]

@MattZeitlin Coens, Tarantino, and Jordan Peele are the 3 today, imo, who are top shelf writers and top shelf directors.
Chloe Zhao may be there too I haven't seen as much of her stuff.
