it’s real! i’ve also decided it’s Good, Actually

i can’t believe i just heard a 70s inspired song about Travis Kelce’s dick

Referee: "Holding, offense, number 64"
Number 64: "FUCK!"

God Emperor of Tatooine

thank you! (also weird to see all the posts about this, while on Bluesky in Mississippi. it seems that it hasn’t made its way to the app yet)

AI "thinks." AI "hallucinates." AI has "psychoses." AI discourse is the ONE PLACE metaphor thrives. It's so dumb.

Time to dance!🕺 💃

that song is a true testament to the power of a writing partner

'You can't raw dog it' says Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang: 'If you're not using AI, you're going to lose your job to somebody who uses AI' 'I'll be sure to go home and tell people, you're not gonna raw dog this.'

“Working-class people can’t think, but should be allowed to become knowledge workers by using machines to think for them” is about the most “the author of this argument works for Microsoft” version of cosplay progressivism I could possibly imagine.

if i could time travel i would go back and have one great scene in the film SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE

Through the Opera Glass | Jeffrey Arlo Brown The Met should be a lodestar for opera worldwide—but under Peter Gelb’s leadership, it has found itself lost at sea.

“In Gelb’s vision, opera is an art during which you can get stuck on Instagram for several minutes watching a capybara riding a crocodile, then return to the piece without having missed a thing.”

to call the remake just THE ROSES is gross malpractice in and of itself

• Alex Chilton, the former lead singer of Big Star, recalled receiving middle-of-the-night phone calls from Wilson asking him to sing on a recording of "Shortenin' Bread'' ("He was telling me I have the perfect voice for it"). [31] • The Monkees' Micky Dolenz said that when he tripped on LSD with Wilson, John Lennon, and Harry Nilsson, Wilson played "Shortenin' Bread" on piano "over and over again". [291 • Biographer Peter Ames Carlin wrote that Elton John and Iggy Pop were bemused by an extended, contumacious Wilson-led singalong of "Shortenin' Bread", leading Pop to flee the room proclaiming, "I gotta get out of here, man. This guy is nuts!"[32] • Musician Alice Cooper recalled that Wilson considered "Shortenin' Bread" to be the greatest song ever written. According to Cooper, when he asked why, Wilson responded "I don't know, it's just the best song ever written." [33]

RIP big dog

the only time you’ve ever disappointed me

seeing the glass half full: i was sure @vanmusicmag.bsky.social was starting a “Weird Al” (as in Yankovic) “Moment of the Week” in their newsletter. instead, frightening instances of inhumanity

i’ll be a year sober next week, and thank god it’s become a trend, there’s so much actually good stuff
