12/1001 albums: The Sounds of India - Ravi Shankar

Regardless, every song has a unique atmosphere that the layered instrumentals serve well. Will definitely be returning to this.

11/1001 albums: Á'gætis Byrjun - Sigur Rós:
Wow. Beautiful album. Sigur Ros has been on my radar for quite some time, so I'm glad that I finally got to check them out. I can definitely draw comparisons to Godspeed You Black Emperor, but the song structures are more well defined.

In case you ever wondered how edtech companies, academic publishers, and big AI corporations, as well as HE institutions, make money out of your academic work, here's our new paper starting to unpack the assetization of academic content

harvest is a 5 from me 😭

i just took lactaid for the first time. my life is changed forever.

Grabbing every pre-HRT trans girl who says she won't start unless it turns her into an elven anime character by the shoulders and saying this until a vein pops out of my forehead.

no sequel to ok human :(

newsom is literally having ben shapiro on his podcast like how do people think that he has the best interest of trans people in mind 😭

new charli just dropped what are the tl's thoughts

yes

10/1001 albums: Beck - Guero

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is that we should be more concerned about immigrants possibly being criminals than we are about those in the highest positions of power, who wear crosses, quote scripture, while actually just using Christianity as a tool to perpetrate injustice.

9/1001 albums: Milton Nascimento and Lô Borges - Clube Da Esquina

8/1001 albums: Nina Simone - Wild is the Wind: It’s Nina Simone. Do I have to say anything else?

This album is lush, ornate, and melancholic all at the same time making it the perfect listening for the short winter days. I also just appreciate how much variety there is here between the songs. It's one of those albums I can't wait to listen to when the weather starts to get cold.

7/1001 albums: Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left: Ok so full disclosure here, Nick Drake is a weak spot of mine. My roommate LOVES him, and it's February in Boston so I feel like this is perfect listening for the moment. I have heard River Man before and the chord progression was haunting.

omg, the sequel to avocado toast

it's going to be above the teens in boston at night for the next few weeks i can finally run outside again 🤩

We have received numerous credible reports of torture, killing, and inhumane treatment of detained individuals at the Camp East Montana migrant detention facility, located within Fort Bliss. #txlege

Age Verification Is Locking Trans People Out of the Internet Experts tell Dia Kayyali and Jasmine Mithani that age verification, sold as a fix for kids’ online safety, expands surveillance and deepens discrimination.

With Discord announcing the rollout of age verification, I want to re-up this @techpolicypress.bsky.social story laying out how this technology can be a security threat to trans people online + how age estimation tech might not even work for trans people. www.techpolicy.press/age-verifica...

Always a great sign for how things are going in your country when 21-year-olds are like “hey, I innovated a system to play bagpipes in tear gas”
