I don’t want technofeudalism. I don’t want newer, bigger machines that can do all my thinking and experiencing for me.
I want to read books, play my instruments, make art, be with loved ones, and spend time outside without these activities feeling like luxuries I have to make special time for.

If you have some last minute errands to run today, I highly recommend having this in your ears as you go.
You'll be much less likely to want to throttle your fellow festive season procrastinators while you learn just how faithful an adaptation the Muppet Christmas Carol is to the original text

Happy solstice.
Remember always that the light returns as the cold sets in.
Hope returns even as everything gets worse.

I would unironically listen to every one of these bands
Included in this week’s That’s Marvelous newsletter is a list of horrible fake (mostly) nü-metal and rap-rock bands I accused @tedleo.bsky.social of playing in. If you would like more context, you can read the whole thing here: www.thatsmarvelousnewsletter.com/162-malort-a...

I'm changing my mind and now he has to do a murder mystery every other project because Wake Up Dead Man was just that good
@rianjohnson.bsky.social gets a line item in the federal budget equivalent to a mid-size agency to make whatever he wants as long as every third project is a murder mystery of some type
If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

There is nothing better than putting this on in the background and waiting to see how many songs I can get through before someone in my family asks what the hell we are listening to

I will miss the midmorning gym time when the shutdown officially ends and wish the best of luck to all the retirees that get to continue that sweet life.
