The coffee table

Yo, That shit stressed me out so much. Bravo to the guy whose twisted brain dreamed that up. If you’re easily sensitive DO NOT WATCH THIS. Almost turned it off because it went left QUICK. If you can make it through the first mmm… 20 mins, it’s totally worth it. Would not rewatch because it had the kid STRESSED but it’s worth one go round.

Cries and Whispers

This film is so crazy and i would have switched it off had i not been in a theatre. It made me painfully aware of my reduced cognitive stamina which i think must be a good thing.

Sweeping the floor in twin peaks the return

it sounds pretentious but listen it’s like however long, ”too long” I had several epiphanies while watching it like I have so many subconscious movie or plot expectations like first of all it’s length and then it’s content I was like ohhhh were ramping up for something there’s gna be a jump scare!!! Like just made me reevaluate all of the ways we’re trained to expect and experience what we watch and how fcking good David lynch is at punishing you for viewing cinema m that way and then retraining you

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
