Edgar Wright explains why he watches "Raising Arizona" (1987) every time before making a new movie:

"When I first saw "Raising Arizona" (1987) as a teenager, I watched it immediately again afterwards. I just couldn't quite believe that a comedy could be that stylish and that dense in terms of its visuals and in terms of its dialogue. So funny in so many different ways. I mean, I just think that film is a miracle.

It's always a film that I look to when I'm about to make a movie. And certainly it was a movie that me and Simon Pegg talked a lot about before we made 'Shaun of the De@d' (2004). Even though it's not a horror film, there's a lot of things in that film in terms of the pace and the drive, the really inspired Shaun. [Like] the use of callbacks within the script. So, that movie is a huge inspiration to me."

@thresholdvenom @TheCinesthetic Well said. I would argue it was a bad film. It had none of the grunge and grit of the book. Everything was overly glossy slick and too focused on the IO corporation over the well crafted friend relationships from the book. One big advertisement for feeling good about VR.

@SecScottBessent @usmint Surely this is an onion article. Are you guys laughing on your side when you scheme these things up at least? I want to think some grain of joy is coming from such utter and complete foolishness.

We cannot consider #AI to be morally neutral. In reality, every technical tool embodies choices and priorities through what it measures, ignores, and optimizes, and how it classifies people and situations. Ethical discernment cannot be limited to asking whether we are using a system for good or bad purposes. It must also examine how that system is designed and what vision of the human person and society is embedded in the data and models that guide it. #MagnificaHumanitas

I am a US citizen & Surgeon who took care of the Boston Maraton Bombing victims in 2013. I paid for 7 years to own a small apartment in downtown #Beirut for my 3 kids to enjoy summers there. Today, #Israel reduced my dream home to rubble, with american weapons, paid by my taxes.

@elonmusk Jefferson in a letter to Madison:

Compared one generation to another "as one independent nation to another," arguing that the dead have no control over the living.

Theorizing that laws should expire after 19 years to allow the new majority to govern itself.

@elonmusk The youth aren't entrenched in the status quo. What you call "propaganda" some would call a better direction for the planet.
