SWR's @melrose.bsky.social and @mikestabile.bsky.social sat down with @hansbuetow.bsky.social at Never Post to talk about what really draws fans — authenticity and intimacy.

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning I was sent this video of agents at her door:

I just had a call with a @riversidefm.bsky.social rep where I mentioned that I don't use the post-production tools (AI, editing, transcribing, captioning, etc.) but just need the platform as a recording studio. And that I'd love to be offered that tier. I bet there are others who would use that?

Excellent live coverage of everything happening in Minneapolis right now from @mprnews.org and @ninamoini.bsky.social listen here: www.mprnews.org

once again i am asking literally anyone in a position of power to do literally anything so that our neighbors stop getting fucking murdered in the street

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

This sight actually made us gasp.

We headed up to the skyway when we lost feeling in our toes. Into the far distance they kept walking. People around us taking off boots to warm feet, to put boots back on, to get back in the stream of people.

Snarling traffic with never-ending singing, dancing and marching. A lot of drivers honking in support and filming.

I was delighted to talk to @neverpo.st about the acoustics of "influencer voice". We had a great discussion about the linguistic uses of uptalk and creaky voice/"vocal fry", language change & Labov's saccadic leaders, and why the speech styles on TikTok/Instagram/YouTube aren't really dialects.

I was unprepared for the psychological difference between being an employee and being independent. I feel like I’m work on things, rather than for things.

If you are from here and of a certain age, or have ever lived with or met a Minnesotan of a certain age, you have heard the stories. Probably many times.

Based on conditions in my backyard I can tell there are so many Minnesotans right now who are trying to say “1991” before anyone else they know.

It blows my mind that you can use a free DAW as though it were ProTools. The amazing Brendan Baker making that possible with ReaTooled. brendanpatrickbaker.com/reatooled/
