My two most-anticipated movies of the decade came out within a week of each other and I’m very glad I didn’t see them on the same day, because Wicker and You Can See Everything both require significant process time

At this year's music Pedagogy into Practice conference at UBC, I attended a keynote address on the subject of integrating AI into music education, from José Antonio Bowen. It was the most disappointed I have ever been during a keynote talk. At times, it was stomach-churning. Thread:

"The latest release of the Epstein files coincided with my toddler, husband, and I contracting norovirus. While my son, exhausted from vomiting, slept in my arms, I scrolled. And scrolled. And scrolled." Read @katherinemurray.bsky.social's letter from the editor in our new issue:
From the Editor: March/ April 2026
Every to-do list that I made in January reflected an almost absurd horror: 1. Buy baby Tylenol, dog food, ingredients for husband’s birthday cake, and whistles 2. Call state reps and demand abo...

"My daughters sketch monarchs, create stories. They drape their old baby blankets around their shoulders as wings. As they zoom past Mom, she can only reach out for them, her smile weak, her grasp left empty." from @linalau.bsky.social's essay, "The Chrysalis," in our Sept/Oct issue:

@rachelyoder.bsky.social This seems like the setting in which Nightbitch was meant to be watched (solo parenting, boogers in my hair, and too tired to clean up the toys again). I read your book in one sitting and cried. Your book and Paris Paloma’s “labour” made me feel seen. Thank you 🩵
The Dodgers played like shit today and still won. They are now 8-0. This could be a problem for the league.
Molly Knight@mollyknight.bsky.social · 2y agoI said earlier today the dodgers haven't been playing that well but they're undefeated because their pitchers are striking everyone out. Well, their fielders are bricking it today. It's quite windy in LA though so maybe they can put braves defenders in the salad spinner as well.
