“Plemons is singing the praises of art, he is a traumatized man trying to salvage a famous play” “Plemons is an evil rich guy trying to control the narrative! He has ulterior motives and manipulates the world!” Guys… you’re both right.

AI for 99% of people is just three things: 1. Cheating on homework 2. Search engine 3. Slop That's it. The programmers live in a different universe where AI is integrated into literally every part of their lives. To everyone else it just made everything suck.
This is my thesis: no one uses AI. I repeat, absolutely no one. We live in a bubble. Even among my friends who pay for it, when I ask them to open ChatGPT and show me their queries, it’s the same handful of basic things. Most don’t even know they can upload a photo and ask questions about it. Connecting Gmail so an agent can read and send emails blows their minds. An agent opening a browser and checking them into a flight? They’ve never even heard of it. The massive challenge right now is adoption, and then getting people who already signed up to actually use what they’re paying for. Most have absolutely zero clue what’s possible. Imagine the compute shortage when everyone starts using AI like the top 1% of users do today.

Many people got this wrong. It’s okay.
Oil flows in the Strait of Hormuz have sharply rebounded: Persian Gulf crude oil exports surpassed 14 million barrels per day last week for the first time since the Iran War began on February 28th. This marks an over +210% increase from the ~4.5 million barrels per day low seen in March. As a result, the 4-week average is up to 14 million barrels per day, the highest level in 6 months. Persian Gulf crude oil exports have now recovered to ~80% of their pre-war levels. This comes as the US military has increasingly secured the Strait of Hormuz and established a two-way shipping corridor along the coast of Oman, allowing oil convoys to resume through the waterway. Meanwhile, refined fuel shipments, including gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, remain at only around 50% of pre-war levels, as these products are more expensive to transport than crude oil and some refineries in the Persian Gulf that were damaged during the early stages of the war have also yet to fully resume operations. Oil flows are coming back, but the fuel market is still under intense pressure.

Good bit in Digger I've seen no one mention yet is the juxtaposition between between the Dr. Ganesh refusing to eat the tuna and Digger enjoying it honestly. He "tries not to" eat tuna, but Digger points out that "trying not to" just means you do it sometimes. Which he then does.

If you look at this scene carefully, you can find mannequins sitting at random places as extras
Scene of the year imo and it’s not remotely close

The “we want original movies” crowd when an original movie is released
‘DIGGER’ is now tracking to potentially be the biggest Hollywood box office bomb of 2026 with a $12M opening weekend. The film's budget reportedly ballooned to $160M-$180M during production. (Source: variety.com/2026/film/box-of…)

Digger spoiler: I know people are being weird and cryptic about the plot but what they’re talking around is SPOILER The film ends with Tom Cruise addressing the audience, asking them to not reveal that it is a musical

Here's what's going on with Digger: Western culture has conditioned audiences to view films as a frictionless commodity designed purely for comfort. When a film disrupts that comfort, a total freak-out is guaranteed. Most mainstream films use predictable structures, clear good-vs-evil dynamics, and spoon-fed answers. Digger breaks this contract. It forces viewers to sit with discomfort and watch an unlikable protagonist. For years, we've reviewed films based entirely on how they made us feel. We fail to judge them by what the filmmaker was actually trying to achieve. The critics tarnished Blade Runner, Miami Vice (2006), The Village, The Counselor, and Tenet upon release. Yet time was on their side, rewriting their legacies. Digger will be no different.

I wish everyone complaining about digger would DO something. Kill an oil executive, argue for carbon based pricing, lobby for reductions in extraction, support another climate summit, bomb an oil rig, bomb a glacier, do ANYTHING other than say the movie made you sad.

It was supposed to make you sad. Iñarritu did his fucking job. You got sad and he told you that your feelings are utterly irrelevant. It's a material world, as our Marxist friends tell us. The director did his job. Have you?

digger is a performance piece where hollywood lights $100M on fire in front of an audience and says “look, see, just like global warming.” and in that way, it is the greatest climate fiction ever made

Digger’s a resentful attack on how shared communal experiences like the arts, at least in western culture, has become about punitive retribution. Seeking justice in fantasies instead of real life where we can actually make a difference and limiting the humanity we put in stories.

ofc critics hated digger lol. basically told them to fuck off, art doesn’t lead to action. we’re all fucking guilty and we’ll just keep acting like making satire enacts change when it does absolutely nothing. we’ll keep giving out awards to actors who flew there on private jet

The only way this movie would be better is if there was a scene where they held a binding UNGA vote to put a price on carbon and it fails
