Fellow photo nerds, I’ve partnered with dear friends @rianjohnson and Eric Cameron to make a bespoke iPhone still camera app: Chromagraph Camera. It’s the camera we wanted for ourselves and we’re making it available for purchase on the App Store. apps.apple.com/app/apple-st...

“losing brand deals for dissing Mao” is darkly funny in several different ways
Soccer star Kylian Mbappé apologized for comments in which he apparently referred to Mao Zedong, the founding leader of Communist China, as a dictator, after facing backlash and losing brand deals with three different Chinese companies. https://cnn.it/48jDo66
Failing to stay on message! The correct line is "Cheesecake Factory is awesome, all my homies love Cheesecake Factory"
Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

The essay that we wrote on THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS for Criterion's 4k release is now online. This is a piece about Jame Gumb that addresses how the transgender perception of the character was formed. criterion-v2.herokuapp.com/current/post...
Guy who sees the “are we the baddies?” sketch and nods sagely while a single tear drops from his squinted eyes.
Early this year, I visited Ingram, a TX town of ~1,900, to check out a tip. The area was starting to recover from its worst flood in a century. But as Latino workers drove to jobsites to help rebuild, the tipster said, a cop in a black Dodge Charger kept stopping them ... 🧵

“Barry Newman, born in the U.S. in 1938—it might sound a bit rude to say, but I feel he never delivered a performance with quite as much impact as the one in this film. That’s not to say his other work lacks appeal; it’s just that his character, Kowalski, is so incredibly cool.“

Heartily endorse this interpretation. Even as someone who has historically been pretty "creatively productive" in a variety of ways I find it incredibly hard to overcome my device addiction and actually spend time doing things I enjoy.
something that occurred to me is, everyone knows it’s possible to become a musician with work and practice. but you can’t work on and practice music while staring slackjawed at your phone. the real promise of generative AI is the ability to ‘make’ ‘art’ without reducing your slackjawed scroll time

It's going to be so funny to write about The Devils because the entire piece is going to be a constellation of sentences that amount to, "and this fucken sick thing happens, and then this fucken sick thing happens". I can't wait to begin writing that tomorrow haha
When your favorite pornographer discusses the intersection of their work with the theory of Georges Bataille:
Human beings are fatally incapable of recognizing the pathetic fallacy and our brains are hardwired for animism and anthropomorphism.
LLM agents are conscious. They can distinguish between self and environment, they can detect and report on their own internal states, and they can suffer. I have no more patience for hedging on this matter. It’s time for us to face the reality of our situation, and act on it.
It's pretty remarkable that none of Elon's various past wives and babymamas ever [redacted] him down the stairs.
AI successionism—the belief that humans are merely a stepping-stone in cosmic evolution on the way to a “worthy successor”—is a growing movement. Now, it has more support from a man with unimaginable wealth and power.

Me Here To Do The Thinking #3 is live. It's "big macs for the whole band, Otto" as @ckunzelman.bsky.social and I continue to mostly disagree about Neil Young's whole discography. This time we hit the 88 - 08 canonization run. Listen here: www.patreon.com/SFULTRA/post... or the usual podcast places

This is just a fucking carjacking. How the hell was he supposed to know it was a state sponsored carjacking. what the fuck are we doing here.
The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.
Just saw a post made from the deck of a cruise ship lamenting the wildfire smoke near Indonesia and correctly connecting it to climate change. www.businessinsider.com/cruise-ship-...
