The sexy Watto meme is proof that gen AI is dumb. First, itās inherently funnier that a real artists took the time to draw sexy Watto. Second, gen AI could never come up with anything so haunting or execute it in such unhinged ways.

North Carolinian here! Maybe Iām in my liberal bubble and itās definitely anecdotal, but I havenāt talked to a single person whoās worried about Cooperās support for the trans community. If anything, weāre all psyched about the possibility of a NC senator who isnāt awful.

Finally started reading A Masterpiece in Disarray, about the making of Lynch's Dune. So far, my favorite bit of trivia is that Rob Lowe passed on playing Paul because he thought he'd become a worm in future movies. Now I can't stop thinking about God Emperor Chris Traeger.
