My wife and I recently recorded a one-off podcast to discuss our perspective on our multicultural relationship.
Would love some feedback if y’all find it insightful! 😊 🎧
Very Online
Reading about “Wavelengths” reminds me how, fundamentally, my friend groups are so segmented that social apps and group chats are not quite for me 😞
I dunno if this one is so bold to Orioles fans and anyone who’s been paying attention these past 18 months but…

AO Scott on ending his career as a Film Critic

I’m not a fan of modern fandom. This isn’t only because I’ve been swarmed on Twitter by angry devotees of Marvel and DC and (more recently) “Top Gun: Maverick” and “Everything Everywhere All at Once.” It’s more that the behavior of these social media hordes represents an anti-democratic, anti-intellectual mind-set that is harmful to the cause of art and antithetical to the spirit of movies. Fan culture is rooted in conformity, obedience, group identity and mob behavior, and its rise mirrors and models the spread of intolerant, authoritarian, aggressive tendencies in our politics and our communal life.I swear John Mayer has looked 35 for the past 12 years!

Memo to the BBC
Perhaps it would have been useful, in the case of Gary Lineker and Match of the Day, to look more closely at the writing on the side of your own building:
It is an old quote from George Orwell: “If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.”
Ngl: quite enjoying this new Miley Cirus album so far… 💃 🎤
Obviously whole heartedly agreeing with this take:
“Mass layoffs are due to hiring becoming a vanity metric in tech.”
Gowalla is back, y’all!
These data-hungry tech companies have compromised our security, eroded our privacy, tracked us, sold our data, lost our data, monopolized the competition, driven out small businesses and put entire populations at risk.
Watching Mulholland Drive for the very first time and happy that it’s the 4K remastered Criterion Collection :)
Today’s Micro.blog photoblogging challenge prompt is ENGINEERING. As I’m looking around our home, I’m inspired to post about an industrial Air France poster we’ve framed in our bedroom.
Engineering, Airplanes, tadah! 💥 🤯
