Can you show my kid that bullies don’t win? If you enjoy her sketch of #UtsuhoReiuji from #TouhouProject, could you like and reshare? A kid at school keeps erasing her artwork

I’m new to the Bluesky thing. Sorry for not tagging @tmbg.bsky.social or @harvilla.bsky.social properly. The original point stands.

Tonight, my son was part of an 8500+ children’s choir in London. One of the featured songs was “Birdhouse On Your Soul” by @tmbg.bs

I think @harvilla.bs would have appreciated it more than most.

Great episode, as always.

Would be interested when David revisits fiction if we can include more dystopian works across different media. Bonus points for the video game BioShock.

Agreed on all points. NWA may be on the brain as the exemplary rap group to support David’s (very valid) commodification point.

Overlooking Public Enemy is unfortunate, though, given how explicitly political they are. “Fight The Power” attacks Elvis and John Wayne, furthering the film’s themes.
