"Pitchfork takes an in-depth look at Lou Reed’s 1982 solo album, a strangely alluring comeback that made good on the promise of a lasting rock’n’roll icon."

The Remains ~ Lonely Weekend
(from The Remains, 1966)
#TheRemains #MusicSky
Fantastic song written by the great Charlie Rich for a quiet Saturday night. IMO The Remains were Boston's best band. Were the support band for the Beatles '66 tour too, so there's that.🌟

This is allegedly from a tech report by Chinese company Alibaba.
Apparently an artificial intelligence in training secretly decided on its own, without prompting, to start trading crypto. And it used an SSH tunnel to avoid detection!
And some people want to give AI control of military weapons? 😬
#Caturday Sir Walter Scott on Cats: 'Cats are mysterious kind of folk. There is more in passing in their minds that we are aware of. It comes no doubt from their being so familiar with warlocks & witches.'

BREAKING:
A federal judge in Washington just ruled that Kari Lake has unlawfully served as chief executive of the U.S. Agency for Global Media — which oversees Voice of America — and nullified many actions she has taken in the role, including mass layoffs of staff.
He has been attacking Allies all year, belittled their past war efforts, and did not engage in coalition building before the war. Then he whines when other sovereign countries refuse to join an ill-defined war.

This is *nothing* dignified about wearing a cheap baseball cap that promotes yourself to the otherwise solemn ceremony to receive the bodies of the troops you had killed to distract from your bad economy and rampant pedophilia.

The Byrds ~ Wasn't Born To Follow
(from The Notorious Byrd Brothers, 1967)
#TheByrds #MusicSky
This LP popped into my head this week. Produced at the height of the Vietnam war and great turmoil in the US (and in the band), it seems appropriate, and sadly familiar.

“Unconditional surrender” sounds clean. History says it is anything but clean...and the human cost is almost always worse than the public imagines at the start.

BREAKING: The US has bombed Tehran’s main refinery and burning oil is now flooding down the streets into the city’s sewers.
This is a vision from hell, unleashed by the US tonight.
