Gizmodo is reporting that Jack personally intervened to protect anti-Semitic conspiracy lunatic Alex Jones on the birdsite. More evidence of the high regard Dorsey has for hate speech. I quit the birdsite last week, but my husband abruptly quit today over this.
Absolutely incredible. This weekend I wrote 25 pages of my new book, "The Boston Vanishings." It's literally been years since I had such a productive weekend. And all written on an antique typewriter! #amwriting#mystery#Boston
Just when you think you have worked out The Hottman Sisters they surprise you with a new track that doesn’t sound quite like their previous work. From their acoustic folky sound to their electric leanings of pop-rock, heightened by their lush vocal harmonies, Jessica and Heather are forever pushing the boundaries as musicians. Check out my interview with The Hottman Sisters here below. https://rear-view-mirror.com/2018/09/03/the-hottman-sisters-are-about-to-set-the-world-on-fire/
All of you on Mastodon get to experience one of my family's awesome holiday barbecues for the first time. Until now I've only chronicled them on the birdsite. Prepare for awesome food and wine! #LaborDay
@webmind That's fascinating. At one point I was going to write a novel about people addicted to spicy foods, and I did a bit of research on chile peppers. It was years ago though so I don't have it anymore.
Wikipedia and Google delude many into thinking all human knowledge has been made available to our immediate access. This is a dangerous lie. Any scholar will tell you of the vast amount of documents and artifacts completely unavailble online, or indeed impossible to easily scan or study online. And this silent wealth pales before the oral and analog culture which, in a McLuhanian dimension, can not be simply digitized and maintain integrity.
y'all, please send virtual hugs to the Brazilian people tonight, who lost their entire national museum in a catastrophic fire. thousands of artifacts that date back thousands of years were lost, as well invaluable artworks from many cultures. this is a terrible loss for humanity.
Well, it really depends on whether you're into absolute strangers sending you death threats because you don't like a podcast, or ostensible comrades and acquaintances playing social Crusader Kings II and also seeing all of them naked.
