Dirk Schwenk Can't Do Without His Martin DX1RAE Singer-songwriter Dirk Schwenk told us about his Martin love. "I am definitely a KISS principle musician. I don't like worrying about gear failing."

Gearhead, I am not. But these are facts. www.musicconnection.com/dirk-schwenk...

I actually wrote a song that touched on that once. It's like 35,000 mph.

He seemed like a pretty good Bond, but that nuts-beating-in-chair was not OK. Undermines the whole Bond vibe. 0/10.

Not if the highest bidder wants the data. Also see the entire business model of FB, Twitter, IG, etc

If y'all Spotify users could go play this song, I'd appreciate it. A recording I can't stand is the forever "most popular" song in The Algorithm and it makes me nuts.

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me?
Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

For what it's worth - and it ain't much - I don't think they were direct selling the girls. I think they were selling the data they collected. Probably still are.

I thought I'd seen enough stupidity for the day then I saw a dude at the hardware store with a "big beautiful bill" sticker in his car.

I've learned to live with the despair. Luckily I can pay the bills elsewhere. If someone listens to my stuff, that's a bonus

The secret to Baltimore's extraordinary year This April, Baltimore saw five homicides.

1. We interrupt this programming for some LEGITIMATELY GOOD NEWS

Violent crime in Baltimore has PLUMMETED to historic lows

How did the city do it?

Baltimore adopted a comprehensive set of "woke" policies, treating violence as a public health issue

4.6 Billion Years On, the Sun Is Having a Moment In the past two years, without much notice, solar power has begun to truly transform the world’s energy system.

Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social writes.

Jeff Bezos pays less in taxes than you do. Then spends $105M in a weekend while you fight for food stamps and insulin. This is class war. And they’re winning.
