Now that Instagram is TikTok, will someone build an app where I can see my friends’ photos in chronological order? No algorithm, no stories, just wonderful, boring, beautiful pics of their food and kids and vacations that let me feel connected to their lives.

Today’s Song Exploder is one of my favorite episodes so far, about one of my favorite songs of all time. It’s incredible to hear just how different A-ha’s “Take on Me” was when it started, and the work, creativity, and luck it required to turn it into the giant hit it became. songexploder.net/a-ha

Hello Friends. I am ecstatic to announce that I have reacquired the entire Spontaneanation catalogue and effective immediately you can find every episode wherever you get your podcasts. Don’t get drunk and fight each other.

The original logo for the Spontaneanation podcast consisting of a gold “s” in the middle of a green circle surrounded by a purple outer circle. Elegant in its simplicity. Designed by me and created by Liezl Estipona.

@duolingoesp.bsky.social seems to have started replacing their weird, wonderful voice cast with AI, and it SUCKS. I’m missing the personality that actors brought to the characters the app uses for storytelling. The flat, generic AI voices = a flat, generic lesson. Can’t believe they don’t get that.
