Anti-revenge narrative this, anti-revenge narrative that, I personally think that Inigo Montoya had the right idea when he stabbed Count Rugen in the gut and said "I want my father back, you son of a bitch"

A lot of revenge arcs end with the hero saying "there's nothing you can do to bring my loved one back, so me seeking revenge is pointless." The Princess Bride's revenge arc ends with Inigo Montoya saying "there's nothing you can do to bring my loved one back, so there's nothing that can save you."

Oh. Just letting yall know that AI has a body count. To the point where there's a Wikipedia page on deaths caused by AI, most of which are suicides that AI had straight up *encouraged*, and several that are AI talking to people with paranoid schizophrenia and telling them their loved ones are plotting to kill them or are possessed by demons.

There’s also that whistleblower from Open AI who “killed himself” after he made his dinner, made plans for later, and ransacked his house. But we don’t talk about that.

No, no, no, please DO talk about that actually because this is the first time I've heard about it!

Fucked. Up.

“Media can be factually made with a child/family audience in mind” and “media for children/family audiences can be well made and engaging pieces of art” and “if you are an adult you should have a more diverse media diet than what exists to target an audience of primary middle and grade schoolers” and “it’s okay to watch a cartoon as an adult and enjoy it” can coexist.
