@NightSkyNow In my poem, I run the same logic through a transhumanist lens: If humans are the clay, who is the Maker? If we become the Maker (siring synthetic progeny in silicon), then the same question returns: Who made us? And eventually: Who made the silicon minds? allpoetry.com/poem/19154020-…

"If we say God made the universe, then surely the next question is, "Who made God?" If we say God was always here, why not say the universe was always here? If we say that the question "Where did God come from?" is too tough for us poor mortals to understand, then why not say that the question of "Where did the universe come from?" is too tough for us mortals?" ~ Carl Sagan

I'm curious: what books have you reread the most?

@WilliamShatner Iconic.

🤨 What kind of a question is that‽ 🙄👋🏻

@janebadler It's like school reunions, familiarity is replaced with warm confusion, ha ha.

'80s fans: will you remember the cast of 'V' if you saw them today? Would you still recognize me ?? msn.com/en-us/tv/news/…

@jonnyrmitch Broadband.

The most overrated band of all time?

@pensandpoison You can't determine whether Shakespeare was gay, you can only form a theory about it. There's no proof. You can imply from the sonnets that he was but that's where the trail goes cold. A waste of time in other words.

The Ancient Greeks studied literature to become wiser. The Romans studied literature to become more civilized. My Columbia Shakespeare class studied literature to determine whether Shakespeare was gay.

@JimLNeibaur In Dublin, Marlon and Marilyn are pronounced the same way. It’s the same name.

I think it is finally time for me to do a book on her screen work. Plenty of bios and picture books, but no good detailed exploration of her films. She was a good actress. I have a couple of projects to get to first, but some time next year I will begin The Marilyn Monroe Films.

@AmerSongwriter I’ve written nearly 600 poems and I don’t like everything I’ve written. Some are failed experiments or just bad ideas that never got off the launchpad. You live and learn and go on. Especially with a large body of work over many years, the fluctuations in quality are greater.

It’s hard to deem any Paul McCartney song “awful.” He’s one of the most legendary songwriters ever and has produced more than his fair share of legendary songs. Few would dare to say anything that negative about the Beatles icon. But he himself has put down his work, even calling one song “f***ing awful.” That song was Bip Bop Read more below: americansongwriter.com/the-post-beatl…

@DavidLambertArt "Greedo Shot First" before it existed.

When A Fistful of Dollars aired on ABC in the 70s, the network added a 4 minute prologue in an attempt to justify the film's cynical tone & amoral violence. The prologue was directed by Monte Hellman & stars Harry Dean Stanton:

On his birthday, I need more Shakespeare sonnets in my timeline. I trust you all will rise to the occasion.

A woman told me she slept with her best friend's ex two weeks after they broke up. She felt terrible about it. But did it anyway. I asked what made it impossible to say no. She showed me the first text he sent her after the breakup. Here's exactly what it was 👇🏻

@RichardERoeper Yes, and all very heavily and craftily implied.

In advance of reviewing the new “Cape Fear” series, I rewatched the original film. (I’ve seen the Scorsese remake a half-dozen times.) Man, they got away with some truly disturbing and creepy stuff in 1962. Mitchum’s performance was so casually evil…

@PopCrave Not like she was trying to recreate the Marilyn/JFK thing at all.

Madonna reveals the best sex she’s ever had in upcoming Grindr interview: “I’m only going to name dead people. John Kennedy Jr.”

@fandompulse @odysseymovie @nolanarchive @JohnCleese @EricIdle @pensandpoison @amalaekpunobi @Asmongold @angelaroosee @bettanyhughes @MattWalshBlog Or, even better...

@fandompulse Having my say on #ChristopherNolan's #Odyssey controversy (read the Grecian urn closely). #GreekMythology #TheOdyssey #controversy #casting #mattdamon #zendaya #movie #movies #film #films #satire #parody #parodies #history #Homer #myth

Greek City Times published an open letter to Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey this week. It reads in part: "We did not vanish. Greek people did not disappear after the age of myth. Greek culture was not frozen in classical marble. We are still here. For more than 3,000 continuous years, Greek identity has persisted." The addendum: "Given Hollywood's insistence for minority representation, authenticity and diversity — where are the Greeks, or the Greek Americans in this Greek story?" The film shot in Greece, with Greek funding, across Greek locations. Not one cast member is Greek. Hollywood required diversity for every production except this one.

@hering_david Too much Tantric Sex.

Why does Sting look like the head of a planetary council in a science fiction film

@DiscussingFilm I didn't like The Batman, it just never clicked for me. A slow, boring pace and miscast lead. A Batman too far.

Sebastian Stan teases his role in ‘THE BATMAN: PART 2’, saying that he will play “many roles in this one.” “‘I’m excited, I’m nervous and trying to keep surprising myself,’ he says of taking on Two-Face and working with hair & makeup teams who have devised how his disfigurement will look.” (Source: Deadline)

A cold and drowsy humour, for no pulse Shall keep his native progress, but surcease: No warmth, no breath. Romeo and Juliet, Act IV, Scene I. #ShakespeareSunday #StarWars

@fandompulse Like the feminist retelling of Hamlet where the heroine basically told him what an asshole he was every two minutes and ruined eveyrthing that beautiful about it.

Paramount is developing a new Godfather sequel from a "woman's point of view." It's called "Connie," a feminist retelling of the Godfather events from Connie Corleone's perspective based on a novel of the same name. Why do feminists keep doing this kind of thing?
