Weird trend I've noticed in movie trailers: Take a popular '80s hit song and slow it down. Might just be an A24 thing. Anora used Blondie's Dreaming and Marty Supreme uses a slowed down version of Tears for Fears' Everybody Wants to Rule the World. It's effective, I guess.

2025 is the 30th anniversary of the 18th Dye album "Tribute to a Bus" (1995) and it's kind of crazy I haven't seen any articles about it. 🤷♂️

Today I learned about the term/concept: Irredentism (The term irredentism was coined from the Italian phrase "Italia irredenta" (unredeemed Italy), which would be an awesome band or song name)

I’m at a mall (don’t ask!) at 11:45am and the only store that is crowded is the Apple Store and it is absolutely mobbed. Teeming! The rest of the mall is quiet and relatively empty. I don’t understand the economy. 🤷♂️

I was about a decade late but I nailed this.
By 30 every man should have a hobby that will kill him someday, an ex who internet stalks them, briefly considered moving to Philadelphia, multiple baristas who know details about their lives their own mothers don’t know, and a blood feud with a local politician

This is how I work but I never manage to finish step two. 😕
my best code is written in a two-step process:
1. kludge a working prototype together, don’t worry about the code AT ALL. the point is understanding how the requirements function in reality
2. destroy the prototype completely. build the app for real using my better mental model

Having coffee at what was my daily neighborhood cafe for a over a decade. (Haven’t been here in over a year). It is imbued with so many memories of friends and neighbors and experiences, almost feels like visiting a childhood home. I miss it but also realize I’ve moved on.

Criminalising the documentation of events is a direct attack on press freedom, and it puts journalists - including nyt journalists - at grave risk

The hate crime charge against Alexa Wilkinson for photographing vandalism of the New York Times building is a dangerous precedent, no matter what you think of Wilkinson.
Journalist or not, photography isn’t a hate crime
Gatekeeping over hate crime charges misses the forest for the trees

A friend posted about this new Rosalía album (Lux) and I’m really enjoying it. London Symphony orchestration, beats by Venetian Snares, produced by Pharrell (et al.) and featuring a bunch of folks. (Björk!) And, of course, Rosalía singing in like a dozen languages. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lux_(Ro...

Just admitted to a friend that I once had to step outside of a Swans show about halfway through because it was so loud it had produced an uncomfortable pain in my chest.
His response: "They'd be happy to hear that." 😂
