completely true and it's a huge reason why many people do not want UBI, bc they will not be able to as easily control entertainment any longer. nearly every art scene and entertainment vector (tv, video games, etc) is completely shaped by the wishes of labor aristocrats and bourgeoisie

social media is not "just wanting to communicate with your friends". And Taylor knows it. This is a deliberate denial of basic reality, and a large body of science on how algorithmic social media can harm kids in particular.

Can social media be addictive? @taylorlorenz.bsky.social says no. “You wanting to communicate and chat with your friends every day is not an addiction,” says Lorenz. “And to frame it that way is incredibly harmful and anti-science.”

I regret to inform you all that I have found a new way to sell you my albums... This time I have devised the cunning plan to sell you posters of the coverart that includes a download of the album. This gives you a cheaper way to display and listen to the albums...

The Irish musicians, Beoga, who play alongside Ed Sheeran, have withdrawn from Sheeran’s tour. This is the statement they published on Instagram:

Never mind me just working on some artwork...

I really feel it’s super important for people to stand up and say very clearly that the AI doomer stuff is completely risible and anyone that treats it remotely seriously is a joke

i don't like that i feel like we're all getting dragged against our will into an all-media all-the-time LessWrong thread, an insanely annoying and disorienting experience that most people do not have sufficient experience or mental preparations to deal with

Hey, if you look to scam people by impersonating some famous people maybe start following random AFTER you finish setting up your profile? Yeah, sure, Emma Ruth Rundle with no profile picture or posts, believable as fuck

Btw, I'm changing things a little: when someone volunteers, they get added immediately with no further announcement. I'll make a new post once the pack is full though. So the quicker people tell me that they want in, the sooner people will find everyone in this pack!

Starting the sixty-first Starter Pack with all the bands, orchestras, choirs, independent labels, and musicians that I covered and who volunteered to be on here. Do you make music and want to get included? Let me know! Labels are welcome too, AI or bigots are not! go.bsky.app/HggsFPh

we get that what the dems are offering is good enough for you. that you're fine throwing trans people under the bus, and probably all kinds of other people too if you don't think they matter enough. we see you. We just don't care about giving you what you want because your politics got us here.

Perfect aura for riff making ✨

Bad news New Steven Wilson song is kinda good actually

libs aren't on here harassing and abusing trans ppl bcos they want us to support transphobic dems. they're on here harassing and abusing trans ppl bcos they want us to give them permission to support transphobic dems. it's the same shit they do with harry potter trying to seek our permission.

Some 5 years ago, my band broke up in really nasty circumstances. My mental health was in the gutter. I swore off music making, I was thinking about selling my instruments and gear. Until I connected with other artists on Bluesky last year and I started AM. bentknee.bandcamp.com/album/land-a...
