Hey @kera.org / love the arts calendar. Heard a spot about a ballet with live music, but the org wasn't named in the spot after I got hooked.

Might it be valuable to other listeners to state the org at the end of the spot too?

Looked up and found #avantchamberballet :)

Persistent dread is exhausting.

Justin Wisdorf doing deep cuts soul is such a reminder of the value of a radio dj.

Thanks @kxt.org !

New cat and old cat have made quite good friends in the last two months.

Throughout the movie, tell the story of Marie Curie. Try to do this with a rating of PG-13 that requires three appeals to be toned down from "R" without edits.

Keep the run time to 82 minutes.

who acts like he's written and directed by Mel Brooks, with 40% tense pursuits, 20% battle sequences, 20% coming of age and 20% musical numbers like Hamilton.

AI Prompt of the night: Create a movie where Adam Sandler looks and sounds like Adam Sandler, but has the swagger of Bruce Willis in the 80's and early to mid 90's and acts in the style of a Guy Ritchie movie and battles a Predator

If all you do is watch #foxnews this post completely makes sense.

There's nothing I like more than an unlimited ingredient salad bar

I'm grumpy with whoever decided to take away all data about Google Wifi.

Traitors: Michael Rapport makes me really glad I don't know anyone like him.

Insufferable.

After 12 years driving electric cars, and occasionally getting a gas rental car, I can't believe anyone would ever buy a gas car.

They're quiet, powerful, cheap to own, never buy gas, and require no maintenance.

When At&t sales people in Costco and Best Buy ask me who I have for cell phone service, I'm now asking them personal questions in return.

"None of your business" was better than the guilt of purely ignoring, but probably won't be as fun as inappropriately prying into their lives.

The overlap between places we want to dominate and places that have oil is striking

Look at what we are doing partly, if not largely, because of oil. So you’ll forgive me if I think the demand we support oil and gas is not only patently absurd but deeply morally offensive.

No one calling for continued oil and gas use should be referred to as a climate advocate. Ever.

Can Arizona turn things around in the second half?

I don't think I'll ever be expecting what a 40°F+ temperature drop in a couple hours feels like.

I think we went from 83 --> 43 in about 4 hours today.

It seems like a lot of society and business is about finding ways to help people be happy being alone and isolated rather than together and connected

What Was Nexus Q and Why Was it Discontinued? Nexus Q was a digital media player. It discontinued due to the product being expensive and had limited functions.

I'd like to thank Google's nexus q for introducing me to banana plugs.

One of the weirdest things I've ever owned.

I'm 99% sure it ended up leading to Chromecast and google home devices.

This.

If my choices are car, bike, e-bike, e-scooter, and I'm going to the store to get coffee or milk, I'm gonna pick the one that lets me ride on the road at the speed of traffic and can easily park.

Currently, that's my 43mph e-scooter over my 114mph car.

More shade for Bill than Hillary on this one.

I'm proud to vote like a black woman.

We are watching the acceleration of the end of society when we trade our climate for digital artifacts of imagination.

Hopefully, but probably independent from the identities that you just assigned to each team.

Today I learned:
The Earth is heating up at a rate equivalent to four to six Hiroshima atomic bombs per second, with the majority of that heat being absorbed by the oceans.

Kudos to the director of photography for Daredevil (2025) episode 1.

Gentrification metric for my neighborhood is count of rugs out for bulky trash. This month, we have three in 20 houses on my block.

To be fair, my talk about sense of self, self esteem, personal definition, EVs, electric scooters, solar panels would have likely been equally disengaging to them.

Let them.

And let them own and explain it.
