It's already over in his time zone but happy birthday to WOODZ too, what an amazing artist, I hope to see and hear so much from him in years to come. Seriously, treat yourself to a listen to Archive. 1 and to the MV for I'll Never Love Again and to Drowning. I think you'll be glad you did.
This is great news. Minneapolis desperately needs a new bike map. Spread the word and share with any creative folks you know.
Alex Schieferdecker@alexschief.bsky.social · 4h agoMeet Minneapolis is looking to commission a local artist or designer to create an illustrated cycling map of Minneapolis! I'm hoping to see some unique visual languages and cartographic ideas come out of this. More details: minneapolis-2021.s3.amazonaws.com/images/Cycli...
Google's move to AI means traditional SEO doesn't work anymore so every big company is now desperately doing Reddit AMAs to try and get their responses ingested by the Gemini slop machine and farted out in AI summaries
how cool is it that one company owns the venues and the ticketing and the promotion and the music press and also a bunch of the artists
The ones who should consider it are the very ones who won't. But they will be the first to complain about non-existent fantasy characters being cast as other than white. Imagine never having a classmate, a teacher, a boss, a neighbor who looks like you. Books. TV shows. They couldn't handle it.
Brian Keith Jackson@bkjwordplay.bsky.social · last wk.Do white people ever think, "I wonder what it would be like if every book I read or TV or film only had Black people in them?"

Then cast Anne Hathaway as Q, and Meryl Streep as M, and call it The Devil Wears Bulletproof Prada

Wow they didn't even explain all the layers of humor going on with Wang Qinian and Wang Furen's daughter being named 王霸 Wang Bà, and repeatedly passing Fan Xian an egg to hold. It's a homophone for wangbadan, bastard or sonofabitch. Also 霸 means arrogant or tyrant so it's a hell of a name.
Not quite sure how this happened, but my phone went into Sleep mode and suddenly started playing this song by Chen. I can't complain too much. It's a pretty great song. 😁 첸 (CHEN) 'Broken Party' MV www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXfq... #kpop #Chen #첸

Couldn't sleep last night so I got up and painted an inky little sumi-e octopus 🐙 Well, like, I guess most octopuseses are already naturally inky So this guy is double inky

thingswithwings@thingswithwings.bsky.social · 2d agonot enough people are out here talking about The Repair Shop!!! what about the sacred quality of objects that humans invest with their own history and emotions! what about the value of handcrafting processes that go back generations! what about the rich interconnections between craft and carework 😭

Christians should be banned from playing sports. Jesus provides them with additional strength, which gives them unfair advantage.

You have 21 Friday paychecks until Christmas, but only 10 if you get paid bi-weekly.
There was, however, one exception to this: Minneapolis-St Paul. There, a finance bro, the mob, and a crooked lawyer really did buy the trains and sell them for scrap - but that was the exception, not the rule. 12/12

🔥👏👏👏 It makes so much sense to me that two of the people we've heard from on this are Tablo and Yongguk, two industry veteran leaders who have been *through* some shit and know exactly how things can be stacked up against you
bought candy at the pool for a 13yo and she tried to give me cash. i was like nahh it's nbd, and she goes "girl i have seen your car." 13yo girls remain undefeated. you think you're talking to a child but you're actually talking to whatever gods used to send to punish mortals for their hubris
