It’s never been like this. We have to move forward.
New essay on my RACE TRACK site. “The voters need to stop making excuses for federal, state, and city leadership, and also the failings of the media to expose it all. This has become like someone in an abusive marriage excusing the beatings with “It’s only when he drinks.” The whole country needs an Alanon meeting. Forget party alliance. These are not two rival football teams. Stop being a Superfan, eagerly excusing the team’s failings. Because when your football team doesn’t win the game, the defeat smarts for just an hour after, and ends with, “We’ll get ‘em next time.” But when your political leaders fail, your town will burn to the ground. Forget the parties; vote for competent people you want in charge during worst case scenarios.” Read the rest of the essay on my @substack RACE TRACK site. Link in bio.

Whatever you do, don’t accept a “sacred cow” status for #AI. Don’t ever do it. They are trying to do it. Don’t let them. Keep calling it the absolute trash, theft, and bullshit that it is. Don’t ever stop. Like @toastycakes says, “They’ll create legal personhood for AI soon, and then we’re all cooked.”
#AI is a joke. And everyone who uses it is a thief and a fraud.

New essay on my RACE TRACK site. The non-#AI @_credo23_ Film Festival is 3/28-3/30. Tickets are on sale now. How did we get to a point where we need a non-AI film festival? “In June of 2024, the Tribeca Film Festival announced that they had partnered with OpenAI in order to showcase their generative AI (GAI) software program, Sora. Special attention would be paid to five shorts that had been made using only this program. Tens of thousands filmmaker’s hearts were broken; one of the premier film festivals was openly honoring GAI over blood-and-sweat filmmaking.” CREDO23FilmFest.com Read the rest of the essay via link in bio.

For filmmakers and film fans, a new essay on my RACE TRACK site. “There is a new wave of filmmaking beginning to emerge. Much of what makes it new is different emotional perspectives, and the cinematic way of presenting them. In William Friedkin’s 2013 memoir, ‘The Friedkin Connection,’ he introduces the term ‘cinematic cubism’…” Read the rest on my @Substack RACE TRACK site. Link in bio.
