Damn. Generative AI makes you lazy, and ultimately stupid? Who could have predicted this?
New Microsoft study finds that using generative AI at work makes employees' critical thinking skills "atrophied and unprepared"

What was with the two superbowl ads that featured flying mustaches and flying bushy eyebrows being ripped off celebrities' faces? Coincendence? Or a plot by the facial disguises industry?

@ryanhasbadtaste Things don't *have* to happen, but it's nice as a treat. And sometimes really boring without.

@LouisPisano The problem isn't nudity per se. It's that she's presented as a human sex doll accessory for kanye's red carpet look. It's not "empowering." It's degrading and gross. Pretty simple really.

So sick of "burnout." Whatever happened to the mental breakdown? A proper crack up? I'm feeling Fitzgeraldian.

@Tyler_A_Harper I am devestated that Trump is rolling back the gender equity initiatives for drone strike operators. It shouldn't just be men remotely blowing up wedding parties.

Trying to remember the name of that Viennese doctor who would love this stuff
Nighttime erection data from my 19-year-old son, @talmagejohnson_, and me. His duration is two minutes longer than mine. Raise children to stand tall, be firm, and be upright.

When you make a movie about domestic violence to prove you're such an enlightened guy and then launch a coordinated PR campaign to destory your costar's reputation... We're talking the Baldoni/Lively implosion on @nontoxicpodcast
With insights from journalist @kirkpate and gender justice researcher @wwmcinerney, this episode unpacks how PRs take advantage of misogyny on behalf of their clients and why branding yourself a male feminist might come back to bite you.

I see a lot of "culture" editors and magazine verticals that seem to be just coverage of Netflix slop, horny YA novels, and Star Wars sequels. Remember independent film? Literary fiction? Art? That's culture; you're doing PR. If you think this tweet is about you, it is.
