I just invented an amazing system for creating science, art, and written language -- and the best part is that ANYONE can use it! I call it "a human being with decent pay at a full time job." You should try one today! #AI #tech

In the latest Recliner Notes post on the songs of #BillCallahan, Smog's "Feather by Feather" demonstrates how Callahan can play with and sometimes subvert country music forms to explore deep, emotional themes.

The post also includes comparisons with Callahan's #DragCity peers #DavidBerman of the #SilverJews and #BonniePrinceBilly who also have been known to take on similar artistic modes as Callahan.

Andrews: filled with all the sexy blood relatives you can imagine
So, I've been enjoying an audiobook on the history of women lighthouse keepers. One of these days I need to write this idea I've had for a long essay in praise of the "small beer" book. Non-fiction books that aren't attempting to explain humanity or expose a new crisis or reorient the universe.

Twitter was transformed into a vital tool the Black community used to amplify its collective voice to protest injustice, organize, commiserate, and spread its unique brand of tastemaking cool, humor and wit.

Why Quitting Twitter Is Not So Clear Cut For African-Americans And Other Marginalized Groups

Why Quitting Twitter Is Not So Clear Cut For African-Americans And Other Marginalized Groups. I have read many think pieces lately from writers -mainly white- who have decided Twitter is just too much of a clusterf*ck for them to….

Every news outlet should stand up a Mastondon instance for their reporters & staff.

It’ll be great to see [email protected] or whatever domain they want to use.

Plus the “local” feed for each instance becomes a feed of all the posts from that institution mixed together — providing extra discovery.

Many of the journalists Elon suspended today on Twitter are here on #Mastodon. Please follow and boost:
