@gturner It was a great series, but I never understood why they invited confusion with the movies by choosing that name, when they had nothing in common. I think it's why the TV series never found more of an audience.
Nearly 20 years ago, I got my custom seafoam green Carvin bass (as seen in my profile photo.) Today, I'm giving it a lobotomy in anticipation of the first Lusties show in 15 years! 2/17 at Live Wire, Chicago!
Today I was laid off from @io9/@Gizmodo as part of a 23-person editorial restructuring. I leave behind work that was globally read, award-winning, deeply reported, & sometimes goofy despite the horrors.
I deserved better than this and G/O Media will be poorer for letting me go.
AI content will not replace my work-but it will devalue it, place undue burden on editors, destroy the credibility of my outlet, and further frustrate our audience. AI in any form, only undermines our mission, demoralizes our reporters, and degrades our audience's trust.
