The air is clean, your skin is clear
We've had enough fun hanging around here
It's a different kind of conversation in your blue room
It's 11 am and so far today I've seen:
* A gentleman wearing a kilt on the subway
* A gentleman wearing a vest with the emblem for The University of Edinburgh at the local Starbucks
* A newsletter from that University, where I was a visiting student in 2014

What are the vibes trying to tell me?🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

No surprises there. Good on the King estate for putting their foot down and nipping the misuse of MLK in the bud.

OpenAI is preventing people from making AI videos of King on its Sora app after the estate of the civil rights leader complained about the spread of offensive and vulgar portrayals.

I would argue we see the same with Bono. He had a very Irish accent in the early days but sang in a British accent (inspired by the UK punk scene?). Over time, he's adopted a more American English accent. When he's on Irish talk shows, the Irish accent creeps back in a bit.

In a rare study, two audiologists found that Taylor Swift's accent has, indeed, changed over the years, reflecting where she's lived, where she wants to go and who she's inspired by.

This was an amazing episode!

Thank you @mylesehrlich.bsky.social for the well-researched questions, and allowing Natasha #Cloud9 the space to give answers, and elaborate context.

It's so important that interviews can provide space and show deeper perspectives of the people being interviewed.

🗽☁️🏀
Episode 65 of Pull Up is one of our best. Natasha Cloud joined us for a conversation that had relationships as a through line: with Liberty fans, with media, and with our communities. Her compassion vibrates and, in this clip, Tash opens up about her why. Links below. 🔗👇

As an LFC fan, respectfully, who in their right mind shows up to a hearing wearing a Liverpool FC necktie? Not to mention you're in a high position. You can't be serious...🙃

On three separate occasions today I've seen/heard the phrase "Good intentions". It doesn't feel like the most common thing to say, so that's weird. 😅

1. In the title of a research paper
2. Lyric in CHVRCHES - "Get Out"
3. In an ad on the subway.

Dang, Chris, leave some stadium dates for some other bands. This tour has gone on since 2022😅

Now, Coldplay intends to announce 2027 dates already. (Do as your name suggests and play it cool).

News that the Chief Epidemiologist (at the Public Health Agency of Sweden) announced his resignation today. He feels the agency is "uncomfortable" with his "efforts to promote evidence based practices and medical competency".

Didn't the "vocal minority" note such resistance years ago under Tegnell?

This is very, very, unfortunate. From experience, safety protocols for MRI scans are very rigorous. At least in research (i.e., no clinical indication), we always erred on the side of caution if we weren't sure who to allow in the study, nevermind invite to the premises or inside the scanner itself.

New York police said the 61-year-old man was wearing a large metal chain that caused him to be "drawn into the machine." The FDA warns that MRI scan create a "strong, static magnetic field."

I hope the Nobel Assembly in Oslo will issue a statement with some choice words for certain folks who think they can whimsically rename just about anything Nordic at this point. 🤦‍♂️

When you're playing PlayStation to escape reality for a bit...and encounter a fictional article called "The North Pole — Why Russia Wants It" from an in-game magazine. 😅

Ave Maria…
Where is the justice
In this world?
The wicked make
So much noise, mother

The righteous stay
Oddly still

With no wisdom
All of the riches in the world
Leave us poor tonight

Bono 2011: "The city conducts a symphony...The search through trash for melody"

Bono 2025: "...the city conducts its own symphony. I wrote that when I was 16. I didn't know what I meant, but [...] we will describe ourselves through our stories, through songs, through our occasions together"

It's Bono on Apple day.

Unfortunately, my Swedish Apple ID is not supported (can't be linked to the US). I decided to create a new account for the US. Get stuck on the bit where you have to enter a CAPTCHA letter code. Research and figure out it's Firefox. Switch to Google Chrome. (Continues....)
