Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

Why does everyone forget that Hillary WON the popular vote?
That alone tells you that the American people are ready for a woman President. So enough debate and defeatism on gender re Presidency. Let's do move on.
What needs to be abolished is the electoral college.
As per midterms... can't wait.
This functionality can be incredibly useful. Keep us posted.
I'm working on another add-on in Blender to facilitate blendshape transfer across meshes.

Recall a meeting at NYU with National Theatre (UK) circa 2016... we told the Brits that a mocap studio would cost $25K.
Now you can grab mocap from a video uploaded to Quick Magic AI then plunk it into Cascadeur for about 2% of that cost. It's mind boggling. #animation #ai
"As illiberal strongmen have discovered in other contexts... after a while, voters, especially moderates, become exhausted by constant messages of fear, hatred, and vituperation..."

Hatred is never sustainable. End of day, it's self destructive and burns the soul to a crisp. As per fear, people get over it.
Anne Hathaway bought the rights to a novel about a tradwife influencer who wakes up in 1855 and has to actually live the life she's been selling online. The book is called Yesteryear. It came out 3 days ago. The film rights were already sold to Hathaway, who will produce and star.
Holy shit, I have NEVER been more excited for a movie.

"The new venue, called The Hand and the Eye, will feature five performance spaces, seven bars, two dining rooms and one wall that, when touched, will seem to have a beating heart."
A brutally modern tower in the distance at the end of a cavern of Victorian city buildings. Contrast.
Very dark and angular view of the hotel reception. The picture is mostly deep shadow with angular lines of light interlocking.

We have a president who took the nation into a war for reasons he cannot fully articulate, without a strategy for how to respond if Iran did the expected and closed the Strait of Hormuz, and without an exit strategy if Iran doesn’t surrender.
Reminder that Congress can step up and stop this.

Buttigieg: "For the leader of this country to make a nakedly genocidal threat against another civilization as if the US was a death star that was going around blowing up civilizations, of course that is a new low ... the whole country is being judged just for tolerating that kind of thing at the WH"
