Having a panic attack, ama

Someone asked me recently if I use AI to write the pieces on my website. I was so insulted. The very foundation of Moths and Giraffes was built on being sick of seeing lazy write-ups for independent artists. I will never, ever use AI to write anything you see on my website. mothsandgiraffes.com

Less podcasts, more music

We're witnessing the most aggressive, fanatical crackdown on free speech in my lifetime. The speed and breadth of government censorship and private sector and nonprofit capitulation has been astonishing. As has the lack of urgency/silence from people who've long claimed to care about this stuff.

In the run-up to Californian duo Left Tracks releasing their new mini-album 'LT2', we took a moment to explore all the gorgeous sounds this 16 minutes of music has to offer. Our Q&A with DI LEO and Sun Kin goes into their improvisational creative process! www.mothsandgiraffes.com/theactualcon...

BREAKING: The police have confirmed they won't be charging any of the violent far-right rioters with terrorism because they only do that for grandmas in wheelchairs who hold up signs they don't like ♥️

It's a writing day, which means I've eaten about fifteen kilos of food

Now, let's get back on track.

case in point

As far as I'm concerned, bluesky has the juice because Michael Stipe is here hanging out.

Real ones know that A Thousand Suns is Linkin Park's masterpiece. What an album.

any chance someone could kill me real quick

Who up living for the hope of it all?

Exactly.

From the LinkedIn of the woman—a white lawyer from Carlsbad, CA—who filmed this encounter and shared the video:

Writing a Q&A today unlike any we've ever put together before...

So this ended up getting pulled from TikTok & I won my appeal. They’re scared.

So many people have been cancelled for less. I will never understand how all of this happened and he wasn't stopped.

society has gotten so much worse ever since we stopped having to listen to an awful and grating noise to Log In on the Internet

London folklore fans! This'll be ace ❤️

nobody wants ai

I love that something.com still exists. My friend first showed me that website when I was in school around 2002 and it's still exactly the same. A blank white page with the word 'Something.' written in the top left corner. Why? Who has kept the domain all these years? I love this mystery.

I saw this in Tumblr years ago and it's been living in my head. I've never been able to find it again so I remade it myself.

Remember : Epstein’s victims have already told us the names of the men who had done a lot of these crimes, we know there’s a list, we know this is a cover up.

Brighton people. I've been referred one David Barry Arnold (born 1950) who died in Hailsham in May. I'm told he played music in Brighton when younger. Guitar I think, he had one in his care home room. Would be cool to locate his gig buddies and get them to play at his service. Anyone out there?

my periodic reminder that your artistic work — your writing, music, dance, whatever it is — is crucially important for you and for the people who receive it, in ways you might never personally experience or grasp. you gotta trust me, please keep going

you know how I'm always complaining that people should quit using Spotify?

Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.

Analogue media will be more and more priceless in the world of digital rubbish.

this is a sith lightsaber, from the war. I keep it on a shelf right next to my stormtrooper armor and imperial officer’s uniform. I’ve even got a verified chunk of the death star from yavin. I’m just a collector. I just think the history is interesting. no, I don’t have any rebel stuff

Do I have friends in and around #Bristol? I'm in Bristol this Thursday (June 19th) for an event at Waterstones! If you're free, I'd really appreciate it if you could come along and help me spread the word! Details here: www.waterstones.com/events/an-ev...

Goodbye Brian ❤️ I wrote a big post about this on Instagram, find us there at mothsandgiraffes.

RIP Brian Wilson Possibly the songwriter I've listened to the most Heard something the rest of us could not hear, and brought it into the world Subjected to mental illness, abuse, addiction, and the cruelty of the music industry. And moved through it with love and mercy. 🍊📦

“i asked chatgpt” “i asked grok” well i asked brian wilson and he showed me the sound of god

I'm sad, might give all my money to independent artists on Bandcamp today

Happy pride to this nonbinary icon

I love that I found this account again after moving over from the other place ❤️

The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy but I still like seeing them fight

Do I really want to see Massive Attack outside on the rainiest day of the year on my own? Will that actually be fun?
