Look, the Beatles were HUGE for me as a kid, and I still love them as much as, if not more than, the next #BeatlesGuy. But I’m BEGGING someone to put this kind of energy into the KINKS, for the love of god

I think it’s also true that loneliness among women has historically been treated as an individual problem, while loneliness among men is treated as a societal problem. That, in turn, comes from an assumption that women are supposed to earn the company of others while men are entitled to it.
men’s loneliness gets “more airtime”?
baby I have lived the past three decades of my life witnessing corporate media elevate men’s loneliness into a full-blown balls-to-the-wall CRISIS once every 4-5 years
“more airtime” is hilarious

Hi all!
I'm casting my paid mockumentary about YouTube drama culture ($500 CAD, about 3-4 minutes of dialogue, self-tape from home). Looking for a trans woman to play JENNA, an indie TTRPG creator whose Kickstarter blows up and then falls apart. Details + sides:

LLMs are not good at “knowing” stuff, but they’re very good at creating silly text that looks and feels authoritative, which is why they suck for stuff like this.

NPR fights Trump's executive order against public media
The case isn't getting much attention.

I am undoubtedly at risk of having too much of my worldview based on The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but so much of the corporate world's rationale for its heedless destruction sounds to me like "It's a bypass. You've got to build bypasses."

I moved away from Spotify towards the end of this year to YT Music, so you get both recaps. I wish I could have the exact numbers to get a better picture of my whole year. And next year I won't have Spotify at all because fuck them.

Your annual reminder that the most revealing difference between Irish and Scottish Gaelic is definitely in the words for December: Mí na Nollag (Month of Christmas) in Ireland, and An Dubhlachd (the Blackness) in Scotland. So once again may I wish you all a lovely Blackness.

Wildlife tracking! I'm reposting things I made this past year. If you look closely at the deer tracks you'll see I added the hint that they're double registering (hind foot is stepping into the same spot as front foot).
