Another reason to dump Spotify
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

The red dot is a baby North Atlantic right whale trying to migrate up the east coast of the United states.
The blue streaks are fast moving shipping vessels entering and leaving New York City harbor.
One collision and the whale is dead.
We need *mandatory* speed limits for these vessels! 🧪🦑🌍

Newcastle United beat Manchester City in the Premier League back in November and the writer of our match preview for tonight's Carabao Cup semifinal first leg has predicted a repeat of that result.
Which is brave considering Man City scored 10 goals at the weekend!

Proprietary battery designs are annoying. I just discovered that you can get adapters to use the same battery across different power tools, even with different voltages (they have built-in DC-to-DC converters) and different brands. Game changer!

Here's the intersection between Thomas Dolby's work on Prefab Sprout's 'Steve McQueen' (1985) and the Japanese City Pop vibes of his future tracks on 1988's 'From Langley Park to Memphis', his collaboration with Ryuichi Sakamoto later in 1985. Good music video too
