I somehow managed to accidentally hit F5 several paragraphs into typing up this book review, and now the text field is EMPTY

Pagliacci goes to the doctor for depression. Doctor says, "I've got just the thing: stop arguing with random assholes on the internet." Pagliacci says, "But Doctor. You don't understand. *I* am just a random asshole on the internet"

I misread this image so badly that I can only really hope to illustrate what I saw. ( Also a good excuse for an #art study )

"Where are the Black photographers?" Deborah Willis on how she turned that question into an artistic mission. n.pr/4pqMJQ5

In 1958, Black art was not being shown in Detroit’s major institutions. Painter Harold Neal and his contemporaries started a collective of Black artists who created their own opportunities, marking the unofficial beginning of the city’s own Black arts movement.

Remember last year when we said we would drop The Tribune's paywall if we raised enough money to support the transition to free? About that… 😁

Happy Doctor Who Day, friends.

We need it. Not only are the classes full, but also concert halls, libraries - we've gone to a bunch of classical concerts this year as an antidote to despair and guess what - they are full. They were not as full before, but they are now. "Humanities are shrinking" is artificially imposed top down.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait. My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

PSA: someone I was talking with about the Chirp wheels discovered they're having a generous-as-fuck Black Friday sale: gochirp.com If you've been considering them, now is a good time!

A true side note: Prince cared deeply about food insecurity, and would routinely make substantial donations to local food banks and community kitchens in every town that he would play in during his later tours. Sometimes they would ask for supplies & his team would show up with huge amounts of food.

The DOGE playbook is still being carried out by political appointees. I work at SSA and the Commissioner has repeatedly said he is a ‘DOGE guy’ and that we should embrace the DOGE ethos. And many former DOGE staffers have burrowed their way into the civil service. empirejustice.org/resources_po...

New research by @mctd.bsky.social shows the impact of generative AI on authors in the UK. They found over a third of novelists report their income has already been negatively impacted by AI and 85% expect their future income will be negatively impacted. www.mctd.ac.uk/impact-of-ge...

I can confirm the church thing. And that folks were posted in locations and following ICE around. Even confronting. And proud of it.

Behn is running in a heavily GOP district but is not polling all that far behind her opponent (who is a Trumper, of course). She has a shot! Here's how you can help flip the Tennessee 7th district.
