So much for the boycott, first email I open this morning is a notification of a recurring Apple Pay payment for some subscription or another. Apparently I don’t even have to spend money (or know what I’m spending it on) to spend money.

Hi @tedconferences.bsky.social how y’all feeling about Elon these days? Because you’re partially to blame for giving him cultural cachet.

Those complaining about social media sinking human discourse to new lows of snarky, petty, accusatory, and enforced orthodoxy obviously never read a Maximum Rock ‘n’ Roll letters section

I was once a freelancer for TED and it always blew my mind how the “liberal/ progressive” elements of the VC/Silicon Valley ecosystem believed that enlightened billionaires were going to solve climate change, save the planet, fight creeping hate and fascism, etc. How’s that working out for y’all?

Don’t know about y’all but I spent the latter years of the 70s reading hippy utopian sf and so always assumed everyone in the 21st c was gonna have multiple genders, futuristic pronouns, several sets of genitalia, and copulate with who/what and wherever they wanted

Continue to protest and put pressure on US officials to end the slaughter in Gaza, yes.
Police our friends’ reactions to the occupation on social media, no.

It doesn’t seem entirely coincidental that Twitter, a major thorn in the side of those who would destroy democracy, no longer functions as a tool to facilitate journalism (or street-level protest, for that matter).
It pains me to think how useful Twitter used to be for election days. I could monitor results from all over the country. Fuck that dead-eyed poltroon for destroying it.

What’s next, Discogs?
Spend 90 seconds amid the smoking ruins of AllMusic for an object lesson in a cool, labyrinthine music site absolutely desolated by endless vulture capitalist turnover.

This isn’t what was meant by “put the music in its coffin.”
Fuck Ethan Diamond for selling in the first place. Profitable and beloved, within a little over a year, his decision led to Bandcamp's death.
Here's the thing: like many tech companies, Songtradr doesn't make money by selling things. Even digital things like licenses. They don't know jacksh*t about selling music to fans. The company is kept afloat by borrowing money from investors.
