Our weekly post for @dailykos.com /Black Kos of books published this week of interest to Black readers (but also recommended for ALL readers!): www.dailykos.com/comments/232... Authors and illustrators who are on Bluesky listed in the comment 🧵 #Booksky #blackbooksky

Picked this up as a fan of Nora Princiotti’s work at The Ringer, as a music lover, and as a millennial seeking nostalgic comfort in these complicated times. It hit all the right notes. A deeply-reported and insightful history of 2000s pop music and aughts culture. Cc: @noraprinciotti.bsky.social

Thrilled to make my debut in the books section of the Los Angeles Times, talking to Nora Princiotti about a subject I love: '00s pop music! Nora's new book "Hit Girls: Britney, Taylor, Beyoncé, and the Women Who Built Pop's Shiniest Decade," out today, is great. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

Congrats, @noraprinciotti.bsky.social!! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/738884...

MILEY WAS INCREDIBLE 😭😭😭

🚨 EVERY SINGLE ALBUM EMERGENCY POD HAS DROPPED 🚨 Bless you for getting this up so quickly, @noraprinciotti.bsky.social and @nathanchubbard.bsky.social (and Kaya!) 🙏🏻

Thank god. Emergency pod dropped 🙏 @noraprinciotti.bsky.social @nathanchubbard.bsky.social

A few years ago I tweeted that Dua Lipa shouldn't need to have a podcast, but it seems like Dua Lipa likes having a podcast, so I am happy for her non-music creative outlet! THAT'S THE UPDATE ON MY OPINIONS REGARDING DUA LIPA'S PODCAST!

loading up better than revenge (internalized misogyny version)

Miley Cyrus made her best album to date by turning back to rock in its essence. It has none of her iconic hits. Plastic Hearts is really good! How did this happen? New Every Single Album w @noraprinciotti.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/2zsK...

wake up babe new popcrave adjective just dropped

girlboss, this is a wendys

oh brother

This is not what I voted for (letting The Atlantic into the group chat).

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1473

every time i see a pic of one of these i am shocked anew at how truly ugly they are

"Maybe I’m being totally paranoid, but sometimes I’ll pull up at a stop sign and notice people staring at me and laughing, and I could swear they’re saying mean things about me under their breath. Is that insane?" theonion.com/am-i-ugly/

hey Nathan what do you think the beast is about

The truth is out Nora is the worlds leading dick song detector. 😂😂

nice

what does it MEAN

God bless the internet

if this goes even remotely well they gotta make Mike Tomlin and Andy Cohen switch jobs for a year

No doubt Tate McRae looks the part. She has the #1 album in the country. Does she belong in the upper echelon of the pop girl universe? 💃🏼Dance vs music as a medium 🎤Real voice vs singing voice 🎼Hooks vs songs New Every Single Album w/ Nora who is not on Bluesky (we disagree!) 👇

Every day I have to hear about some asshole

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye You were bigger than the whole sky #TheTraitorsUS

"... a Ravens spokesman clarified to reporters that the team does not have a “defined, written zero-tolerance policy” and that “each situation stands on its own.” Question: How can a "zero-tolerance" policy not be "defined"? By @noraprinciotti.bsky.social www.theringer.com/2025/02/26/n...

I will play for the raiders in exchange for a Yellowstone club invite

As soon as I saw they had Post Malone subbing in lead singer of Nirvana all I could think was “He is up for whatever, here for the hang” - @noraprinciotti.bsky.social #SNL50

Hoping the next #esa #everysinglealbum discusses SNL50, specifically Pedro’s dance to Devo 😄😄 @noraprinciotti.bsky.social

AUSA Hagan Scotten, former clerk for John Roberts, really put some mustard on his resignation letter.

From Kendrick to the Eagles fans and their (very loud) Boo Birds to the Chiefs schadenfreude, this Super Bowl was for the haters. @noraprinciotti.bsky.social: www.theringer.com/2025/02/10/n...

@sheilkapadia.bsky.social @noraprinciotti.bsky.social hearing Nora say “how do the eagles fans feel being the hero here?” Nora, you underestimate the perpetual grievance machine of the Philadelphia fan. We can find an offense in an affirmation circle. They are all working against us.

thank god some good news

how it feels listening to my ttpd songs knowing I don’t have to defend it as the aoty

gosh this was fun!!!
