It's a great issue. Next month we ink #250 but beyond 2025, things are looking grim and we need your support.
call me when one of them kills the other one. i’ve been burned before
Was great to catch up with Walt, who continues to make beautiful, spacious, luxurious soundscapes for us to fall into. We jokingly set our next check-in for 2036 just to make sure we keep pace.
It's fine. Just keep using AI to write everything for you. Who needs truth, critical thinking, or a grounding in reality in the year of our lord 2025 anyway?
This. I'm not sure how I, a registered Independent, found myself here.
THIS. The meta algorithm is pushing such weird niche conservative shit on me and I have no idea why, but as a marketer by trade I'm enjoying flagging and reporting every single one of them and blocking the advertisers.
Not that there is a lack of things going on in New Orleans right now, but you'll wanna bookmark our new listings section so you don't miss out on all the cool things that happen here even when there aren't beads and barfing tourists everywhere.
This was a truly life-affirming conversation and I'm so proud to share it with the world. It has delighted old fans and hopefully intrigued some new ones. If you haven't given Dax's work a listen, I promise it's deeply worth your time and effort.
Always happy to represent the reasonable, rational Christian parents who don't think their family's religion should dictate every child's schooling. My kids attend a small Montessori school that is incredibly diverse and their faith is not harmed by having friends who are Muslim or Buddhist.
Senior Editor Mary Beth Campbell explores what you need to know about bird flu (H5N1). This is not the time to panic. This is the time to take action.

Oh yeah. Private not-even-born-here citizen, which is like a layer of ironic icing for how much they spit about immigrants. Can't even trust the judicial branch to shut things down so all the lawsuits feel pointless too.
I can. I was raised in the rural south by God-fearing blue collar parents living paycheck-to-paycheck. People got conned and they will keep insisting he's got their back until his boot on their throat sends them on to meet Jesus. It's never been about race or sexuality - always follow the money
But you see, the gulf coast states won't need eggs if we all get waxed this hurricane season. Elon's just trimming the fat!
Re: USAID, it's like people don't understand soft diplomacy. Between this and Trump telling the world we're going to take over the Gaza Strip and put casinos on it, no American can be shocked when we're eventually attacked on our own soil.
We love to see it! The big Proud Boys merch buy-and-burn comin' in hot.
Libby and @libro.fm all day long
Once again, Louisiana's elected officials work only for themselves and not for the wellbeing of their constituents. VOTE THEM OUT. Every last one of their sorry asses.
Dammit Neil. Why? Why the fuck did you have to be so reprehensible and vile? So much of my favorite art, forever sullied. I want to believe that the accusations involving your kid aren't true. But you've lost any modicum of trust I once had in your honesty.
Genuinely concerned about the future of our libraries, so get your butts to your local branch please. Take your kids. Let them get to know the librarians. Attend the events. Find new series' to fall in love with. Be enriched and be in community, dammit.
I'm also in the process of switching over from Goodreads. So far so good. Highly recommend ditching Audible as well in favor of @librofm.bsky.social where you can designate a local book store to receive profits from your audiobook purchases (I'm in NOLA so my love goes to Blue Cypress on Oak)
I haven't used the bird site in many, many years and I'm new here, so I'd like to gently tell the algorithm that I am not a cat person. Don't get me wrong, I'm not cat hater, I just really don't need to see 87 consecutive pictures of cats in my feed.
A poem by Langston Hughes titled "Tired". It reads as the following: "I am so tired of waiting, Aren't you, For the world to become good And beautiful and kind? Let us take a knife And cut the world in two -- And see what worms are eating At the rind."
I've been thinking about this poem by Langston Hughes recently and although it was published in 1931, it remains relevant as ever.
