Six months from last night, which was, uh, uh, June". Second, the conversation continues with the man and woman deeply engaged, subtitle reads "16th.

In honour of Rob Reiner, have David Moore's thread on the best sword fight in movie history and exactly how nerdy it is.
dtmooreeditor.bsky.social David Thomas Moore @dtmooreeditor.bsky.social · Jun 5
As you may know, I have stopped using Twitter, and have decided to reproduce some of my more memorable threads here for posterity. Here’s one I hold wrote after a particularly engaging swordfighting lesson.

Buckle up, swordfighting fans, because I *have* studied my Agrippa!

Thanks to ‪@thenewworldmag.bsky.social‬ for letting me go deep on #Oasis: on their incredible disruptive energy; on the societal, musical & cultural faultlines they opened up. On the ways we process childhood trauma. And about why Acquiesce is their best song. www.thenewworld.co.uk/pete-paphide...
Oasis: The trauma and the glory
Growing up in an abusive household, the Gallagher brothers became two very different personalities. Together, they made one great rock ‘n roll star.

Taylor Swift buys back the rights to the master recordings of her first six albums
After her former label sold her catalogue in 2019, Swift embarked on her lucrative album rerecording project – but now owns the originals for the first time Taylor Swift has bought back the master recordings to her first six albums, giving her control over her entire catalogue for the first time. She originally lost the rights in 2019 when her first record label, Big Machine, sold them to music executive Scooter Braun. Swift described the sale to Braun as her “worst case scenario”, and said she had not been given the opportunity to buy her work outright, but to “earn” one album back for each new album she recorded for the label. Her subsequent albums, from 2019’s Lover onwards, were released on Republic, with Swift retaining the rights to the master recordings. Continue reading...
