Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:
How to quit Spotify

This commercial for French's Mustard from 1987 is equal parts charming and also kinda unsettling, but what strikes me is the work that went into the absolutely delightful puppetry and practical effects for a *mustard commercial*!! Imagine that today??

Africans surfed for centuries. Hollywood hasn't told you that story. Our film will and there are 5 DAYS left to support it: bit.ly/croc-dance-ks

Crocodile Dance is set in Itesi: a surf town inspired by Lagos & Badagry. Fishermen ride the waves, neon signs flicker, & a goddess rises on the mountain.

Tolerating these bad faith parlor games, devoid of an attachment to actual history or the plain meaning of words, as paths to elite success in legal academia & the federal judiciary was a grave mistake. We need to stop doing that & never do it again.
During ratification of the 14th Amendment, senators discussed whether the Citizenship Clause would apply to the children of immigrants and resoundingly concluded that it did. The text and history all point in one direction and the counter-arguments are patently fraudulent. I am going to lose my mind
The evidence is the text. All you have to do is read the Constitution.

One of my professors was the designers of the Scarlet Spider.

When the video games offered that costume option, my professor was never informed, despite being owed royalties. He had to chase Marvel down.

He died the same year Scarlet Spider was in Spider-Verse. They had to crowdfund his funeral.

the pitches for genAI really reveal how much the people behind it just... hate art.

like. *hate* art. deeply.

Please understand that all your favorite million-dollar IPs were created by artists that get nothing more than a typical company paycheck. They don’t get royalties on the sales and oft aren’t even rewarded with bonuses or anything for creating such a valuable brand.
