Bob Ross is actually a perfect example to show why art lovers are unimpressed by AI art. Bob Ross is not famous for his paintings. He is famous for his videos in which he showed *how* he made his paintings. The process matters!

If somehow Trump turns the tide in this election, he’s going to have an undeniable mandate for homoeroticism.

Trump: Arnold Palmer was all man. This man was strong and tough. And I refuse to say it, but when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there and said, 'Oh my god. That's unbelievable.'

"Hear me out" is for people you find attractive that most people of your sexual orientation would not - an "unpopular would." Someone who's hot but a sociopath is an "I could fix her."

OK, I'll bite. If John Cassavetes is so insanely influential and brilliant, why have I not heard about him until recently? I've been on a side-quest with classic and esoteric movies, mostly through the Criterion collection. I've watched dozens of Criterion closet picks from filmmakers and actors I admire. They pick Cassavetes films ALL THE TIME. Probably more than any other director except Scorsese. I haven't seen a single Cassavetes film. I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about a Cassavetes film outside of those videos. I'm not a slouch on film, I've got a pretty wide spread on what I've seen & what I appreciate. How has Cassavetes slipped through that net so completely for so long?

🚨 DATING APP EXPERIMENT 🚨 We put 6’3” Terra Chad up against an overweight woman in NYC for 24 hours. Terra Chad: 340 likes Her: 677 likes She literally DOUBLED a 6’3” attractive guy. Read that again. One of the biggest misconceptions in modern dating is that Chad is playing on easy mode. He is. But Women are playing a completely different video game…
