I love documentaries

here are some favorites off the top of my head.. Zabardast: i'm partial to climbing/expedition docs, but this one is especially good. a travel diary of a group of voyagers exploring the remote lands of Pakistan to freeride ski down its mountains. Night Fog: very heartbreaking look at WWII concentration camps Dark Days: documents the lives of the homeless people living in the tunnels underneath New York City, without being intrusive or voyeuristic Don't Look Back: self-explanatory (Minnesota's sweetheart)

DOCUMENTARY now - NETFLIX

This show is in no way underrated, in fact I think it’s perfectly rated. Fred and Bill are the twin sisters I never had. I just wanted to highlight some standout episodes. IN NO ORDER. - bats … valley 1 &2 - the original album: co-op - any given saturday afternoon - globesman - parker gail's location is everything - sandy passage - dronez - the eye doesn’t lie

WHY THO?

Why not go through the process of blending those images yourself? Why not use process as an experiment? Why AI? What part are you playing? What makes it yours? I think AI is impersonal. I think it is unethical when it has relied on the theft of actual people’s actual physical (and because of the nature of art, often time emotional) labor. I also think it is unnecessary in creating art. I also think the environmental impacts are atrocious. I also think AI’s biggest supporters are being maliciously ignorant because it’s a fun new toy. Is it ease? Is it efficiency? People talk about accessibility as if children don’t use crayons and stickers! As if graffiti artists don’t use postal labels as sticker, as if sand mandalas don’t exist, as if cardboard and tape aren’t in over abundance.

Tbh, i mostly hate the re-rec feature

Maybe this isn’t so much a fix for staff, but I feel like the reposting of things has gotten a bit lame. I don’t want the “Everyone” feed to be the same post 20 times with nothing added, especially when the thing being re-rec’d isn’t even a real reccomendation in the first place. I like this app because it is different than Instagram and Twitter and tumblr and the like. I feel like people are trying to interact similarly to those other apps here. I feel like we are all drifting back into creating the same social media AGAIN. My vote would be to remove the feature entirely, but I see how it can be used thoughtfully
