Can someone explain what happened to Sweden? #SWE #esc #esc2025 #eurovision

Dunno, I quite liked the other-universe-summoning of Latvia. But yeah, the rest... Estonia better win it tbh.

Oh good, we're not doing a bad power rock ballad this year!! Dance track on a boombox. #DEU #GER #esc #esc2025 #eurovision

Latvia just summoned another universe? #esc #esc2025 #eurovision

Weird, uncanny valley Spice Girls? Unhinged!! #GBR #esc #esc2025 #eurovision

Geschafft! Ich bin jetzt amerikanisch-deutsche Staatsbürgerin! ✨

You can totally see how this mf bankrupted a casino.

At a better pace
Slower and more calculated
No chance of escape
Now self-employed
Concerned (but powerless)

I saw they had their email list too and am like wtf?

What app are you using?

Sometimes OK Computer is the only right album to listen to

Obviously yes

On Tyranny:

“You’ll want to think it’s not happening, because otherwise you might have to do something about it.”

Does anyone know of books or documentaries about how people in 1930s Germany dealt with fascist family members?

"Avoiding products from companies you don't like" is being positioned as virtue signaling, a performative action rather than what it actually is—logical behavior. Avoiding the products of companies you disagree with is the first, most simple way to ensure you're not enabling them.

Hell yeah!

Also, every time I post about Taylor I’m going to lose music cred. Don’t worry, I love Neu!, Steve Reich, Television, D.A.F… also Yemini-Israeli funk from the 70s and Ethiopian Jazz. I’ve seen most of the remaining Krautrockers, F.M. Einheit, Alvin Lucier, and so many wild things in Berlin.

Can I just say I’m unreasonably sad about The Eras Tour ending because of all the little things that pop from each show that is so nice? It is definitely the good place. ✨

If @99pi.org were to do another book club, which book should we tackle?

Caro’s Lyndon Johnson books are already being considered!

Looking for nonfiction: readable, important, explains the world in a compelling way, offers a lot to discuss…

How to Lie with Maps by Mark Monmonier

Human Transit by Jarret Walker

The Death and Life of Great American Cities by Jane Jacobs.

Great antidote to the Power Broker episodes which are great so far ✨

Hello, I hear this is the good place.
