Thank you, Bill.

so many layers to that meme, and we've been using it correctly this whole time, lol.

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly

Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

It shocks me how many businesses still don’t seem to get that Trump’s cultural revolution did not actually happen

Reese Witherspoon? The NFT evangelist?

I'm such a Lucas Originalist I don't even watch the movies I just read the '74 first draft while listening to Holst's 'The Planets'

a weird belief that is held across basically all sectors of American life is that boy dollars and boy votes are better than girl dollars and girl votes and so if you have a lot of the latter you need to be constantly trying to exchange them for the former

Vance also thought Yoda burned the books, if I recall.

This infuriating attitude shows up on the bookshelves in learning environments, too. We expect girls to empathize with boys, but we kneecap every opportunity to let boys empathize with girls. And look where we are.

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

Report: Decision Not To Call Film ‘The Baby Yoda Movie’ To Cost Disney $900 Million BURBANK, CA—Citing nearly a billion dollars of pent-up consumer demand for entertainment featuring an infant version of an already beloved character, a new report released Wednesday by Gower Street An...

“By naming the film The Mandalorian And Grogu, Disney is leaving money on the table from consumers who have no idea who Grogu is but would immediately take out their phones and buy a ticket for any movie of any genre with ‘Baby Yoda’ in its title,” said report author Heather Flynn

I think we need to celebrate the death of Sora a bit more. This is a technology that, just MONTHS AGO, we were being told was going to literally destroy Hollywood and Disney was going to give them a BILLION DOLLARS and NONE OF THAT EVEN REMOTELY HAPPENED

Yet this is what the AI bubble is — poorly-substantiated media-driven hype cycles that exploit a total lack of awareness or willingness to scrutinize the powerful. Sora 2 was always a dog, it always looked like shit, it never challenged Hollywood, it never actually threatened the livelihoods of actors or directors or DPs or screenwriters outside of the tiny brains of studio executives that don’t watch or care about movies. Anybody that published a scary story about the power of Sora 2 helped needlessly spread panic through the performing arts, and should feel deep, unbridled shame. You have genuinely harmed people I know and love, and need to wise up and do your fucking job. I know, I know, you’re going to say you were “just reporting what was happening,” and that “OpenAI seemed unstoppable,” but none of that was ever true other than in your mind and the minds of venture capitalists and AI boosters. No, Sora 2 was never actually replacing anyone, that’s just not true, you made it up or had it made up for you. But that, my friends, is the AI bubble. Five months can pass and an app can go from The End of Hollywood that apparently raised $1 billion to “discontinued via Twitter post that reads exactly like the collapse of a failed social network from 2013” and “didn’t actually raise anything.” It doesn’t matter if stuff actually exists, because it’ll be reported as if it does as long as a company says it’ll happen.

I’m serious! As I discussed in last year’s Enshittifinancial Crisis, OpenAI has had multiple deals that seem to be entirely fictional: Its supposed $100 billion investment (that was always a “letter of intent”) from NVIDIA that went from OpenAI allegedly buying billions of GPUs from NVIDIA in October 2025 to “only a commitment” in February 2026 in a mere four months. A “letter of intent” between SK Hynix and Samsung to supply 900,000 wafers of RAM a month that was reported as representing 40% of the global supply of DRAM that never resulted in anybody buying or selling any fucking RAM. A supposed “definitive agreement” with AMD from October 2025 that would involve OpenAI using AMD’s GPUs to power its “next-generation AI infrastructure,” except AMD didn’t change guidance and does not appear to have any revenue from OpenAI, despite the first gigawatt of data center capacity being due by the end of this year. Part of the deal also involved OpenAI being able to buy 10% of AMD’s stock, but that was so stupid I can’t even bring myself to write it up. When asked about this on its latest earnings call, AMD CEO Lisa Su said that “the ramp is on schedule to start in the second half of the year,” repeating the deal existed while not increasing guidance to account for a gigawatt of chips, which would work out to somewhere in the region of $20 billion to $30 billion of sales as its weak guidance of $9.8 billion in the next quarter, sending the stock tumbling as a result. Isn’t it also weird that Meta signed a near-identical deal on February 24 2026 and nobody seemed to notice that guidance wasn’t changing and AMD was apparently also going to install a gigawatt of GPUs with Meta by the end of 2026? Is everybody drunk? What’s going on? A “strategic collaboration” with Broadcom “...to deploy 10 gigawatts of openAI-designed AI accelerators” by the end of 2029 that has resulted in no sales of any kind and no increase in guidance to match, with no mentions of OpenAI in its latest qua…

The fake Disney-OpenAI deal is reflective of the AI bubble as a whole, where we’re repeatedly told about the existence of multi-billion dollar deals as though they were solid and definitive, like OpenAI's Broadcom, AMD and $100bn NVIDIA deals.

CAN YOU FEEL THE BRAND NEW DAY

From what I can see, Disney didn't mention its (supposed) $1 billion equity investment in OpenAI on its most-recent quarterly and annual reports. The AI bubble is a mirage!

i love that “go woke go broke” is gospel to these people, and not only is it entirely incorrect, its the opposite! papers and legacy media that are capitulating to trumps regime are crumbling and being destroyed

this is unironically the best case for punitive taxation

there are arguments about fairness and freedom and whatever else but at the end of the day it is self-evidently far too dangerous for society as a whole for anyone to have that much money, the end
