42 years ago today, The Thing and Blade Runner were released in cinemas. Neither was a huge hit at the time, but both are now acknowledged classics.

“…the judge has ruled that Jones is not entitled to a clean slate because his wrongdoing was malicious and intentional. That means families can keep hunting indefinitely not only for any money Jones may have hidden, but also for any future earnings.”

Today is the birthday of acclaimed Irish poet William Butler Yeats.

Yeats was also an occultist who was a member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn under the name Demon est Deus Inversus.

When people talk about Elon Musk earning his $56 billion 'bonus', I'm not sure they understand how much money that is. If you paid someone a wage of $1,000/day, 365 days of the year - it would take you over *150,000 years* to reach that amount. All of recorded human history is about 5,000 years.

There are few things that bring me as much joy than the insanely loose/behind-the-beat drum fills in the last two minutes of M83's 'Wait'. Treat yourself sometime by listening for it, it's gloriously human.

A lesson in how 'aware' AI actually is:

I was searching Facebook for a video of a Pub Choir event I attended, where the performed song was 'Murder on the Dance Floor' by Sophie Ellis-Bextor, and to do so I used some bare-bones keywords.

This was Meta AI's confident response:

Contemplating what Twitter is now and the way in which Trump and Musk are viewed by its current residents made me think a bit about this Jaron Lanier quote.
