The Trump playbook.

See, human beings are really a lot of tubes. And all living creatures are just tubes. And these tubes have to put things in at one end and let it out at the other.
Then they get clever about it and they develop nerve ganglia on one end of the tube—the eating end—called a head. And that’s got eyes in it, it’s got ears in it, it’s got little organs—antennae and things like this—and that helps you to find things to put in one end so that you can let them out the other.
Well, while you’re doing this, you see, the stuff going through wears the tube out. And so that the show can go on the tubes have complicated ways of making other tubes, who go on doing the same thing. In at one end, out the other. And they say, “Well, that’s terribly serious! That’s awfully important; we’ve got to keep on doing this.”

Looks interesting. Will definitely check it out. Thanks!
Yeah, it'd be cool to see a movie where Superman is shown to deal with the mental struggle that it is to have a normal life while being aware of millions of crimes being committed at all times.
How does he deal with it? How can he enjoy a coffee and relax while he can literally hear a child being raped or something?
That's what the story of a character like Superman should be about. At least the first story.
Maybe when he's young and has to come to terms with the fact that he will have to let people suffer horribly if he wants to have a normal life. With someone with as much empathy as Superman, that'd be hell.
Maybe it wouldn't make a good movie but a good graphic novel. Maybe it's been done. I haven't read many Superman comics.
By age 23, 49 percent of black males, 44 percent of Hispanic males and 38 percent of white males have been arrested.
Isn't that about the same percentage that vote conservative every election?
This was a study on mice using a running wheel and how their brains changed, which they then compared to human brain tissue from people who had Alzheimer.
I'm sure running helps, but the headline is a bit sensationalized.
It's definitely AI. It released like 5 albums in 2025.
"It's low cost, low on energy resources, and frees up the VFX team to work in other areas."
From the article:
Yeah, it sure freed that VFX team from getting paying jobs.
