Giving Apple Music a try out, I'm the music person who still buys music, so I want streaming to mostly be "hyper customized radio," but I've been also thinking for the last year it would be nice to try something with better sound quality than, YouTube Music.

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.

There's 900 FAST channels for game show reruns now and if only Sony would just make one that was '80s $25,000 & $100,000 Pyramid. The way it would be a balm to my mental health.

Been trying to figure out how to engage here more, and I'm not really sure what to do on that front. A lot of the creative work and ventures I do get more attention on FB and IG, since they're rooted in local theater work.

Independent media is the only media we will have that will not be beholden to The State
This means it will not have the same reach, influence, or attention as traditional models developed.
This will like be both very good and extremely difficult to maintain.

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.
