What the [rhymes with bell]? That is bizarre. Surely that can't be NYT style. AP is "f---", etc.

I had to look this up β€” was this someone's name or what? Turns out it was actually the city's original name due to its prodigious production of wooden shingles

it requires a bit of familiarity with using the command line (or figuring out how) but you can use yt-dlp and Whisper. I learned how to use yt-dlp recently and use it all the time now for transcribing YouTube videos, so handy.

Made @jeffmorgen.bsky.social's chocolate chip cookies today and wow, so good. It was maybe the first time I've made choc chip cookies? I'm not much of a cookie maker, I leave it to my wife usually.

So Hegseth is attacking Scouting America for treating trans kids with respect, including respecting their chosen names... at the same time he demands you respect the made up name for his department, which he changed illegally without congressional approval.

The apparent Scouting move announced by Pete Hegseth today is more unacceptable capitulation.

It is a truly embarrassing move by the Scouts in particular. The Scouts capitulating to a lawless murderer is the opposite of the lessons I learned during my time in Scouts.

Scouting America bends the knee with troop humping & getting rid of the β€œwokest” Eagle-required merit badge

β€œAs part of Scouting America’s commitment to comply with Executive Order 14173, we will be discontinuing the Citizenship in Society merit badge. While this change complies with the EO…”

Journalists slain at record level in 2025, majority by Israel, watchdog says An increasing number of journalists were killed by drones, the Committee to Protect Journalists said. The IDF said it β€œstrongly rejects” the group’s findings.

Last year was the deadliest on record for journalists.

For the third year in a row, Israel killed more journalists and media workers than any other country amid the war in Gaza, according to a report released by the Committee to Protect Journalists.

haha I may need a refresher, I read that one a LONG time ago (and maybe understood only a fraction of it). Definitely a weird entry in the oeuvre

banner advertising Semafor's annual "trust in media" conference featuring a long list of people who are actually eroding trust in media, like Brendan Carr and Matt Murray and Mathias Dopfner

once a year the brunchlords at Semafor host a "restoring trust in news" conference where they unironically platform most of the people responsible for destroying trust in news, then lob softball questions at them

this year's lineup is a real doozy

(notice the complete absence of indie media)

apparently modern shamisen strings are often nylon, and it's not uncommon for clawhammer banjo players to use nylon strings, so I think it would probably sound more like a banjo
