Long shot, but does anyone have the live-to-picture (concert) score for THE LAST JEDI?

The discourse is still so bad. It's one thing when internet bozo film bros spread misinformation, but when the trades just say stupid stuff like this it's just so overwhelming and depressing. Fun fact: even those movies that you think "rely on 'CGI'" have gigantic practical effects work!

No, iPhone, I don't want to open the app I've used the search bar to search for. Sometimes, I just want to see where it lives so I can drag it to a better place on my Home Screen.

@dominicsewellmusic.bsky.social Remember when we were talking about teacher-student lineages on @starwarsmusmin.bsky.social? I just started digging into this playlist about violin teacher lineages. Would love to see a similar thing for composition teachers/mentors. youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I've spent too many hours of my life trying to get help from @musescore.bsky.social. 😩 It doesn't seem like they're active on Bsky, I can't find them on Twitter, and their chatbot is unusable. Anyone have tips for getting support from MuseScore? (the library, not the notation software.)

It's finally happening—I have to pack my own suit for a gig that I'm flying cross country for. 😬 How do I avoid arriving with crinkled clothes? I have no idea how to use to use this upper compartment of my suitcase.

Aussies, which major Australian actors tend to garner the most national pride? Nicole Kidman? Hugh Jackman? Who else?

Holy Dies Irae! #Zootopia2 @celexo.bsky.social

Does anyone else consistently fail CAPTCHA checks? I feel like I need some pointers: 1. For those "select all squares with images of trees" types, should you select the squares with even tiny slivers of trees? 2. Are the character identification ones case-sensitive?

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

A very happy 97th birthday to the great satirist and songwriter, Tom Lehrer. I was trying to decide what song to post, then remembered that, three years ago, Tom put all of his work in the public domain. Therefore, thanks to his generosity, here's all of them. tomlehrersongs.com/albums/

I've been waiting for you, pretty palindrome. #Duolingo

Piecing together reporting and research about the Kennedy Center purge, because if we rely on outlets like the Times to tell us what it means and what might happen and what can be done we're all gonna die waiting songofthelarkblog.com/2025/02/10/d...

Thanks to this thread, I discovered that the Long Beach Opera is dedicating an entire year to Pauline Oliveros and that one of their shows is coming up this weekend. I emailed them to thank them for this and then woke up the next morning like "Oh hey! I can write about this!" So I did!

Trans ppl need to be aware: Trump's hideous executive order on gender DOES NOT AFFECT YOUR STATE ID OR DRIVER'S LICENSE. It only applies to Federal documents. Some states (notably Florida) are pulling the same shit, but in many others it's still possible to change your gender marker.

Does anyone know of an online (piano) keyboard that: 1. lets me hook up my own midi device AND 2. displays both notes and scale degrees (assigned by me) on the keys when I play?

In the wake of its disappearance, theSkimm is publishing the content of reproductiverights.gov to ensure that the critical information and resources it outlined remain available to women and families.

People are gonna nitpick this, but it's good advice. Don't let your in-house lawyers cow you into throwing away programs that work. There's always a way to do the right thing.

Re-upping ask: if you're using any Bluesky scheduling or analytics tools, could use recommendations. Thanks!

The final season of Lost is good actually.

Should I make a separate Bsky account for my podcast?

Accidentally watching Vampire Diaries for the first time. Did they cast someone who looks like Angel from Buffy on purpose?

The string quartet is the sexiest medium. Thank you, no questions at this time.

Wait, the Angelina-Jolie-as-Maria-Callas film was actually finished?!? I remember hearing casting rumblings years ago, but I figured the project had been delayed indefinitely. 😮 Needless to say, I'm maximally excited & nervous for this!

What are your favorite classical albums* under 30 minutes? *or EPs or singles that contain an entire piece of music
