Hah, just got an update. In part:

« It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. You know what else was humbling? Sending out an email by mistake, full of out-of-context Sagan quotes being used as placeholder text (thank you, Sagan Ipsum).

We were testing out our email system and an email that was supposed to go to 10 people went to you and a couple hundred thousand friends. »

Also also, protip, if you're like me and anything after '78 isn't worth your time, be sure you open up this week's Dave's Picks, because while it's a 1990 show, the missing "Cold Rain and Snow" from Dave's Pick's 43 (12-26-69) is hidden away at the end of it. #gratefuldead

It's a huge bummer that the cameras were only rolling during the first 90 minutes, because the third set features a 30-minute Dark Star that I would *love* to see :(

TL;DR: If it's screening again on Saturday in your area, it's well worth a trip out -- and I'd actually suggest streaming this CCR at Albert Hall concert film/documentary as a double feature: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt21053478/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_2

Random thoughts on the #gratefuldead #meetUpAtTheMovies:

4-17-72 is undeniably a great show, with an especially good China>Rider & of course the live debut of He's Gone.

It's weird that whoever cut this movie together from the TV footage messed around with the order, mixing up 1st and 2nd set tunes in some order of their own devising.

The point in the set where the Bozo masks come out is amazing -- I've seen 1000s of photos of Phil looking happy, but *NEVER* happier than that moment :)

Similarly someone burnt the hell out of some food in a pot and buried it, and it was dug up 3000 years later. literally all we know about this person is that they fucked up cooking so bad they had to bury the pot. How much stuff do we do and then think no one will ever notice it, and then 100 years later or 3000 years later it's all anyone knows about us

Rewriting Eliza the therapist bot but instead of saying "tell me more" and "how does that make you feel" it acts more like a real therapist and says things like "lmao that's fucked up" and "that'll be $70"

I do want to acknowledge that, along with accurate COVID information, the most valuable aspect of Twitter for me was the privilege of being able to hear the various first-hand perspectives of folk from communities I do not regularly engage otherwise. That has opened my ideas to occurrences and disagreements I am unlikely to have encountered in other media.

But that's on me to correct. I don't get to insist that Black twitter remain or even that I get to listen to the conversation!

There are probably ppl who will disagree with me, but to me, one of the great benefits of Mastodon is that it's just teeming with shitposting, just absolutely full of it.
