if you're familiar with the history of fascism, he might as well have just written "ART SHOULD BE FASCIST" over and over. for example, one of the tenets of fascism is the 'cult of action for action's sake,' which you can see stamped all over this. and in the fascist conception, all institutions, including the art world, exist ultimately to preserve and extend their favored cultural values like vitality, creation, masculine strength, rejection of the outgroup, and identification with the nation

entire always means holomorphic on the whole complex plane

well if some possibilities come up i hope we get to hear them

it's so much fun! do you know what your topic might be?

the sneerpire is on the march

as an ezra klein hater since 2020 the past month or so has been victory lap after victory lap. and now, well

just repeating my reaction on bluesky here but "my AI partner died because of the updates" is a common complaint with ppl "dating" AI. altman absolutely knows who he's targeting when he talks about restoring personality in erotic settings, and it's people who are really not doing great

"GreenBlox is refusing to kick out a contributor who said the jewish question should be on the table??"
