https://t.co/vnduTaAeeH My exploration of Marty’s compulsive dishonesty and grifter tendencies as compatible with the realities of staunchly authentic pariahs in a world that offers no shortcuts for assimilation or upward mobility.

Marty Supreme distinguishes itself from the rote trappings of prestige sports biopics by eschewing their conventional fixations on heroism. Marty Mauser (Timothée Chalamet) is not a symbol of triumph…

Every clip of this interview that pops up: “Affleck is like really genuinely intelligent”
Ben Affleck talking about LLMs honestly blew my mind. He argues that the industry hypes up fear to distract from the fact that adoption is slow and the technology is getting expensive to scale. Make sure to save this video

Excuse my French & execs still suck but fuck ya
Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos now says that they will keep 45-day theatrical windows for Warner Bros movies if the sale goes through. “If we’re going to be in the theatrical business… we want to win. I want to win opening weekend. I want to win box office” (Source:

Can I bet on polymarket that the broadcast mentions this in the sf vs. seattle game this weekend?
NFL players have started to reach out to their agents about the location of the 49ers practice field. Players have voiced real concerns about EMF and some agents think this might impact the 49ers' ability to attract or retain free agents. One agent told the Washington Post, he

All boils down to the message & the medium: the compulsion to make a statement in spaces where vitriol attracts more attention than neutral/positive observations
To me - Marty Supreme, OBAA, Sinners, & Hamnet were all engaging, skillfully-made films with interesting ideas and great performances and the vitriolic mob-hating on this site around this time of year is predictable and annoying

An annual tradition
One Battle After Another has come down with “Oscar frontrunner syndrome,” wherein people realize that a movie is probably going to win best picture and suddenly decide that they hate it

Missed opportunity for perfect post credit scene
A24 vetoed Josh Safdie’s original #MartySupreme finale, which would’ve jumped to a 1987 Tears for Fears concert where #KevinOLeary’s character bites #TimothéeChalamet and turns him into a vampire. “You’re on his eyes — we built the prosthetics for Timmy and everything — and Mr.

“I was born in 1601. I'm a vampire. I've been around forever. I've met many Marty Mausers over the centuries. Some crossed me, some weren't straight, weren't honest. Those ones are still here. You go & win that game, you're gonna be here forever too & you'll never be happy.” 🔥🧡

This trend rejects Aristotle’s phronesis in favor of catharsis & spectacle, confusing motion for progress & mistaking disruption for renewal. It is governance by fear, impatience, & appeasement; a combo that produces diminishing returns & chronic, unsustainable inconsistency.

Modern sports franchises are in a n illogical self-sabotaging spiral. They ritualistically fire coaches to appease irrational fan outrage, rehearsing a hollow theology of excellence that worships performative sacrifice over reliable long-term success, competence & discipline.
I can’t believe what things have come to in the NFL. John Harbaugh has coached the Baltimore Ravens for 18 years. He took them to the playoffs 12 times. He won a Super Bowl for them. The last 4 years they were 10-7, 13-4, 12-5, 8-9. They made the playoffs 3 straight years and

Timothee Chalamet has to be the frontrunner for the best frontman marketing campaign effort in modern times
