Blaming movies/games for horrific real world crimes parallels conspiracy theories: both feel truthy, impossible to disprove, pleasantly totalizing, capable of producing soft and well-defined scapegoats. Societies with far fewer crimes produce far more disturbing media.

In Checkmate (1926), a figure holds a gun to their temple on a chessboard floor beside a tilted king. The title suggests a grim final move in a game already lost. The work signals Magritte’s growing use of polished technique to explore unsettling imagery. #artbots #magritte

Sábado. “Sobre los hombros de otros”, descendiente, curado por Lars von Trier. De Munch, pasando por Dreyer, Holsøe, Hill, a Watkins, Strinderberg, Vigeland, o los cimientos, los hombros que sostienen el cine, la vida de von Trier; su inicio, pero también, de algún modo el fin.

chatting with my lichess opponents is more fun than actual friends. once i got into it with a player from north korea, it felt like talking to someone from outer space... he was a cool guy, his id went silent after a while.
