For the first time since 2020 I am flying somewhere for a meeting and flying back in the same day. I’ll be on the ground for less than 8 hours. This feels doubly neolithic considering I was on a video conference with the same people for two hours yesterday.

Before the show the people behind me were trying to teach their friend what mpreg is (but had to start with slash fic first), after the show there is a line of people waiting to take a selfie with a connection conspiracy board of people named in the Epstein files. Well done @garbageday.email.

Most interactions I see re: AI accelerationism online are rooted in either: the pro-AI person is operating from a place of fear ("if I don't do this and the snake oil salesman is right, I will lose everything") or a place of greed ("if I can con more people into doing this I will be rich.")

Don't they know you can just post on Bluesky and people will find every typo and error for free?

Every job is content creation/every industry is marketing now (but for a band to "make it big" the music still has to be good.)

For all of you who celebrate Avril 14th Day, I assembled a genre-bending ambient MEGAMIX. Spanning from soft jazz and shoegaze to jungle and chiptune, each of the 39 tracks is Avril 14th, just like every day should be. soundcloud.com/rasmusfleisc...

It is 2011, there is trouble in the Middle East and I am listening to new Wu Lyf. It Is 2026, there is trouble in the Middle East and I am listening to new Wu Lyf. wulyf.bandcamp.com/album/a-wave...

I finally remembered to use the app and have discovered a White-throated Sparrow has nested outside my bedroom window so I have been waking up (early) to this sound for the last few days www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/White-...

But your flag decal won't get you Into Heaven any more. They're already overcrowded From your dirty little war. Now Jesus don't like killin' No matter what the reason's for, And your flag decal won't get you Into Heaven any more. youtu.be/sRCLHBhZPQ4

On one screen writing an ad about cool jackets, on my other screen writing messaging to clients that we should probably stop posting from this evening through tomorrow.

We're in a race to the first "PAIN AT THE PUMP" newspaper A1 shot aren't we?

Do you think any of them have said "going moon mode?"

Happy media literacy day

Happy trans day of visibility. Fix your hearts or die.

Project Hail Mary in 70mm: a solid 7 out of 10.

I still don’t know much about baseball but happy opening day to those who observe

Tedeschi Trucks at the Beacon with a smattering of sit ins including…. Cyndi Lauper?

Looks like shit 👍

Sugarcane field during a controlled burn. We watched for maybe 20 minutes while a group of day laborers caught rodents and bunnies running out of the field, on fire, and put them out of their misery out our school bus windows. Then they gave us sugarcane pieces to suck on.

Anyone who has ever studied labor movements and/or capitalism can tell you that technological leaps don't decrease workloads, they raise quotas. Why would AI be any different?

Chalamet isn't "wrong" but the conversation around his comments have pointed at the symptoms of the problem instead of its root: status symbols for cultured wealth have changed and the market for the old status symbols (opera, ballet, theatre) are fading without any safety net to back them up.

You're going to see a lot of people freaking out about oil (WTI) prices tonight and tomorrow and what I need you to understand is that when oil starts spiking it doesn't mean just gas prices at the pump go up. It means _everything_ gets more expensive.

Very good benefit comp from War Child Records out today warchildrecs.ffm.to/help2

Playing through the Marathon tutorial for the fourth or fifth time? If you're gonna do early access and betas and server slams, just let me skip it again.

There’s gotta be a better way to support news and media than this

Watching a lot of friends and acquaintances who should know better share misinformation regarding Israel/Iran/the Middle East on social media

Block? The company FKA as Square? The one that, for some reason, owns Tidal? That one?

I've seen multiple LinkedIn posts in the last few weeks for people announcing their new jobs as "LLM Growth Managers" or similar, basically working in-house to trick GPT tools to recommend their brand/product. Kind of feels like its giving away the game a little bit, no?

Feels like a story built for a @garbageday.email and @matt-levine.bsky.social crossover (everything is insider trading part 4,080 featuring Mr. Beast) www.npr.org/2026/02/25/n...

Which teleconferencing software company is brave enough to introduce an /ff function?

I know nothing about football, all I know is “fuck the Pats.”

I'm about two and a half hours into Cairn and this game is both gorgeous and sometimes incredibly frustrating. youtu.be/6Ejphz8fY0A

Hootsuite has issued CEO letter on the company's continued working with ICE and other US gov. agencies. TL;DR: "What we're seeing is wrong. Yes we work with ICE. No we don't track you. Will we continue working with ICE? No comment." www.hootsuite.com/letter-from-...

I actually guffawed at this. Meta's CPM is not only "sub-$20" but usually closer to like $12 even with targeting layers applied. There is zero proof the ads even work, and I have to imagine they aren't letting advertisers in on the targeting or conversion tracking side of things...

Would love to not have to keep reposting this. The violence displayed in the video is horrific. You don't need to watch it. The descriptions are accurate.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Pairing this with photos from Minnesota today and the only words I can come up with are "Gestapo-like." It feels beyond the pale that we are well past the point of "checks and balances" now. We have a poorly trained and highly armed domestic army terrorizing a city at the behest of the President.

Panic World's episode from Minneapolis is out this morning. You can watch it on YouTube and anywhere you get your podcasts. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cjx...

This has been the thing that keeps coming up with every Head I've commiserated with. Weir was a musical hero but maybe even more than that, he was the last man standing in the spotlight from a group that have created a musical legacy and a community of cultural misfits.
