To pin: If I am killed on the streets (esp. Morrissey), POLITICIZE MY DEATH. The person who killed me should never drive again. Harangue the public officials who didn't give us safe roads. No funeral. I want rush hour protests blocking the State House and City Hall garages.

@CalifColdblood @DrewSav Yeah it was not grimdark visually or tonally. It had the Nightbus and the jaunty Boggart scene.

@DrewSav prisoner of azkaban was its peak for me. best book, best movie. dark enough to stick to your ribs but still had that hardy boys-kinda crack to it. cuaron's easily the most overqualified director in the series, added depth and zest, plus a campus that felt like a real prep school

The first two Harry Potter films have their obvious flaws but they're filled with a childlike sense of wonder that was sorely missing from the brooding later entries. They're bright and colorful movies.

Kinda fascinating seeing a filmed version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone that's jumped to the darker more "realistic" Prisoner of Azkaban aesthetic

People keep saying Azkaban was the dividing line but that movie was not visually or tonally grimdark.

@stevebikes @mattyglesias Yes, let’s bend over backwards to tech moguls who have proven they are the least trustworthy, most despicable people.

We need Clay Davis Doctrine otherwise the “don’t take money from X” ratchet is never going to end.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@AOC

Politicians - especially Dems - should pledge not to take AI money. They are buying up influence ahead of the midterms, and Dems who take AI $ will lose authority and trust as the public bears the cost. Their money will end up being toxic anyway. People are catching on.

Gen X again not existing

As someone with boomer parents I think @SamAdlerBell is clearly right — boomers are now super woke, millennials never fully were, and Gen Z is over everything embedded.substack.com/p/my-internet-…

I genuinely don't understand your beef at this point. That's like 4% of their annual revenue.

Elizabeth Warren@SenWarren

Netflix just got a $2.8 BILLION payout from Paramount for its failed Warner Bros. deal. Then Netflix turned around and raised prices on millions of customers.

I sat in to watch a Dem focus group with female swing voters (all moms). The difficulty of any Dem message getting to people who distrust The News and rely on social media was stark - two 2024 Harris voters got their news from Candace Owens! semafor.com/article/03/26/…

Bernie planting the flag "AI is actually quite impressive" will I think improve the discourse noticeably

Acyn@Acyn

Sanders: I'll tell you it was a little bit mind-blowing. It is amazingly easy to start seeing this entity, this AI agent, or call it what you might, as a human being. And please remember importantly, AI is only going to get more and more effective in years to come . It's only a relatively few years old.

Every poll of Maine Senate should come with a caveat that in her 2020 race, Susan Collins only lead in a single public poll the whole year and outperformed the averages by something like ~15 points. Beware.

Krinkle@MegaKrinkle·1d

@artwithinpod When I started the trailer I assumed the gloomy color grading was purposeful, to contrast the miserable life Harry has in the normal world, and we would get some whimsical, colorful shots in Hogwarts. But no, that's just how the whole thing looks for some reason.

against all odds, I was fully unprepared for just how off-putting and uncomfortable this would be to watch. something about seeing such a classically-crafted, iconic film series translated into the aesthetics of a modern HBO prestige streamer show just feels uncanny valley wrong.

The most effective package yet devised to produce housing shortages is: IZ + prevailing wage on new construction + rent control + making it impossible to evict bad tenants + tenant purchase option
