I got into making music well into middle age because of podcast / video production, and then writing songs for TF. I loved Rumours as a kid and as a young adult because it whips. And now that I can much more clearly recognize what's going on musically / technically, I can say: holy shit it whips

That they appointed an antideutsch German gentile academic to enforce the new red lines seems too perfect, like you were inventing a worst-case scenario
In the name of "fighting antisemitism," Indiana University appointed a Christian scholar to tell Jewish scholars what they can and cannot say - all while they invited Tucker Carlson to speak on campus. www.jta.org/2025/11/07/u...
In Indiana, a vaunted Jewish studies program is upended by red-state politics over Israel and speech - Jewish Telegraphic Agency
A leadership shakeup, a defunded graduate student and political pressure from above have turned a storied program into a flashpoint for Trump-era campus politics.

Second night in a row of this. What is going on
Funny parenting moment but also weirdly disorienting in a way: why is it that my daughter always falls asleep when I sing a song about how there is no hope for anything ever

If Keir starmer really wants to prove he’s not antisemitic he’ll riot with Maccabi Tel Aviv. Anything less he may as well be Hamas.

Having a lovely time on holiday in Cyprus. And also my observations in a hotel that is admittedly bougie as hell has me once again swearing by one of my basic guiding principles in life: I'd rather end my own life than be rude to hospitality staff

very strange feeling seeing this happen at the paper where I got my very first bylines a long time ago. I can't even make sense of how the university could do this so arbitrarily
When administrators try to soft-pedal censorship of student press by cutting only the print edition, they are reminding us that paper is the medium of liberatory potential.
