  2. ngl the hype is real (or maybe recency bias is kicking hard) but #obsession is absurdly brilliant has replaced #playtest from #blackmirror as my favourite psycho #horror #movie

  3. 🤣 Oh, the #irony of a real human having to prove he's not a robot! 🤖 Shen Anyu's life now resembles a weird episode of Black Mirror, where #deepfakes are more real than actual people. 🎭 Maybe next time he'll have to juggle flaming torches while reciting his birth certificate backwards just to cash a check! 💸

  5. CW: Spoilers (mild) and discussion of murder and bicycles

    Watched the ‘Crocodile’ episode of Black Mirror for the first time last night. It was broadcast in the year that cyclist Tony Parsons was killed (after a hit and run) by two drunk game keepers who covered things up until they didn’t. His bicycle was never found although a key witness desperately tried to find it… in a black comic fugue state.

    If you’ve watched the episode and the Netflix doc about the Parsons case the parallels are VERY spooky. The central characters of both stories have divergent but related arcs (due their different values). At the time of the Black Mirror broadcast in 2017 and until 2020 Parsons was just a missing person…

    Obviously it hits harder if you are an often solo cyclist like me. If I’m killed on the road in a hit and run I hope someone does the right thing because justice is important. But as I have learnt, dishonesty and selfishness are very common in humans. We are all capable of dreadful things, some of which start with a single wrong decision. And a single right decision can make all the difference.

  12. [P] Fool that I am, I believed 'aura' was merely the Gen Z slackword for 'rizz,' that being Millennial brainrottish for charisma. Oh, but it's so much worse, it's far more insidious. It's the Black Mirror fictional Chinese Social Score system, now with imputed Gen Z "kewlness." These youthful hiverarchians are fetishising a fucking Social Score system. That's not terrifyingly dystopian at all. What are you doing to these kids?

    Imaginez un peu : quelles pourraient être les conséquences d’une société qui neutraliserait technologiquement toutes les émotions les plus négatives ?

    C’est justement l’objet d’étude de Nadia Guerouaou, psychologue clinicienne et chercheuse en neurosciences cognitives, arrivée récemment au Centre Internet et Société (CNRS) ! Autrice de « Notre cerveau sous influence », elle était l’invitée de Charline Zeitoun pour la nouvelle interview du blog Repost.
