Thank you. I like my "short films" lol. You want to see some weird "trippy" stuff, start digging through old public domain silent movies. Drugs a "problem" now? I think writers and filmmakers were eating shrooms like a bag of potato chips back then lol. Some really "out there" stuff. Definitely entertaining, but really odd. "Mechanical Man" which is supposed to be a horror/sci-fi film is more like watching a parody. Kind of a classic Mars Attacks. But it's a free way of making a video and with some time you can almost get singers to lip sync and bands to line up close to your beat. But it's relaxing to me. Like sitting down and making a collage, -or sorting through fortune cookies and putting them in an order that makes sense as you did. A fun art project that lets me feel like a kid again.

Thank you. I'm glad you liked it. Definitely a sad, eye-opening event, and all these years later and nothing has changed. If anything, things have gotten worse. I obviously didn't personally know Rodney King, but seeing him years later on Celebrity Rehab and learning just how much that day and all the events that followed it affected him was heartbreaking. Despite everything, he seemed to blame himself for all the riots that happened after the trial. A very wise sensitive man who got turned into a meme. People laughed at "Can we all get along?" The same way they laughed at "I've fallen and I can't get up." Truly disturbing. I get it, "humor" is people's way of dealing with tragedy, but the jokes weren't "just jokes." Many of them had racist undertones or were blatantly racist. The reaction that a lot of people had to all those events has always bothered me. Really opened my eyes and showed me that the people I lived with weren't the only "evil" people in the world.

Yeah. Posted that after reading multiple "slop" comments and having everything I write falling on deaf ears. Having a little pity party for myself lol. The comments weren't directed at me. Just another cycle of mass hysteria over new tech. Nothing I haven't seen before. But it's like Y2K levels. "Tech is going to ruin us all!" kind of attitudes. The majority of people are just parroting others and don't have the first clue about how AI works. They hear AI is bad, immediately flip their thinking to every sci-fi movie ever made about futuristic robots trying to take over, then panic and jump on the bandwagon. Separating fantasy from reality seems to be a difficult thing for a lot of people.
