Half way through the week-- hang in there! Maybe grab some coffee and chill out to some jazz standards before hitting the news. Join me every day here on Bluesky for more music 🎹 Stardust - Hoagy Carmichael ✨

Look, I'm a veterinarian. I've worked as a zookeeper. I've worked with wildlife at rescues. Some of them totally have klingons and dingleberries.

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

this man should get combat pay bc he was FIGHTING here

The Tangled show’s animation team didn’t painstakingly hand-draw this 2D ‘camera’ rotation just so you could tell me that A/I is "inevitable."

The Wachowski sisters didn't use 120 cameras to film one shot just so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

This needs quite a bit of signatures and you can just be a comic reader to sign it. You ever read Hellboy and want to help the next generation of creators make their Hellboy, this is the kinda stuff we got to do to ensure that. Sick of seeing corp mindsets destroy creative life’s into nothingness

Monday morning jazz ☀️ I'm immensely enjoying this daily tradition here on Bluesky as I work through the many fake books I've collected. Today's pick is a Cole Porter tune from 1936, nominated for an Academy Award (losing to "The Way You Look Tonight"). I've Got You Under My Skin- Cole Porter

dr loboto muahahaha look at him he's so sinister and cool

This will be the US if the SCREEN Act passes. Call your Senators before August 5 and tell them that you oppose the SCREEN Act, KOSA, and the KIDS Act. Use the official lookup tool at www.senate.gov/senators/sen... to find yours by state.

I've been thinking about Karen Carpenter lately and her amazing talent cut short. There have been so many amazing versions of this Leon Russell song, but her and Richard's always touched my heart. Check in on your loved ones as often as you can my friends. "A Song for You" ❤️

Yes, this is 100% about censorship in general, and the current anti-sexual weirdness that’s going on. But a paragraph near the end of the article is especially telling… ASMR is primarily created by women. Women doing anything will always be perceived by some as inherently sexual (excerpt in comms)

a bunch of popular ASMR artists lost their channels forever this week, after YouTube cited them for violating terms against "sexually gratifying" content: www.404media.co/youtube-asmr...

Okay, this is good comedy.

The TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us
