The Menendez Brothers might get an early release. Hey, maybe they’ve reformed. And to be fair, the likelihood that they will kill their parents a second time is very small.

The #BlakeLively smear campaign fascinates me as a striking example of manipulating public perception. Demonstrates how a small team can effectively sway moviegoer & celebrity follower attitudes, echoing concerns abt Russian social media influence in U.S. elections.

En La Casita is similar to NPR's Tiny Desk, but Latin American music and kitchen culture.
Quite enjoyable.

Bsky is really starting to blossom. A sign-flipped twitter where posts and comments tend to have lower harmfulness ratings. People working out ideas and solutions. I like it.

Streaming reparations: if your Wrapped includes music you have only streamed, go buy it on Bandcamp.
It’s #BandcampFriday which means is a perfect time to support artists by embracing this antidote to poor streaming income for the majority of acts during Spotify Wrapped & Apple Replay season
This was one of my ideas to make the most of year-end lists from this week’s @drownedinsound.org newsletter

"I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that."
OpenAI just partnered w/Anduril, who "specialize in autonomous systems."
