This beautiful soul speaks for all Angel fans 😂 We all know what needs to change for the organization to be successful long term
Nothing changes if nothing changes!
kendrick bringing out serena williams to crip walk after drake stalked that woman publicly for years and obsessively threw shots at her for turning him down is so wild, that man is the definition of chaotic good
@matdryhurst i wonder how much of this is maybe less about artists not engaging, aware or having caught up but holding on to tried and true methods of turning a profit
I think this is true (also scans with other things Dean has written tbf)
Much of computing and the internet is heavily political and viciously contested, but very few in contemporary art, or the music industry for that matter, seem very aware of what goes on.
I've never seen wider and more heated debates about art than over the past 5 years. However those debates are centered around crypto tokens, open datasets, LLMs and diffusion models, decentralized databases.
There are real stakes around these subjects, but people who are only acclimated to 20th century culture industries, habits and archetypes don't recognize them as such.
Art is not boring now, far from it. The art industry, institutions and greater discourse would just do well to catch up with where the action is and participate
#USAvPAN first half observations on #USMNT under Pochettino:
- Nothing we haven’t seen before
- Musah isn’t a winger
- Set pieces still weak
- Sargent got no service, but missed his one chance
- Busio/Aaronson produce very little creativity
- Nothing matters until 2026

@pitchfork but can you copyright the title of an article i wrote for The Guardian last year with the exact same title on same subject? 🫤 theguardian.com/music/2023/mar…
A landmark lawsuit brought by two Jamaican producers raises difficult questions around the legal ownership of the dembow riddim and the cultural ownership of reggaeton as a genre

Wrote about this over a year ago for The Guardian and even pitched Pitchfork about it at the time…lol. Anyways …the story continues:

@Saxonius@D1SCHER Lugo is an ok prospect and Kavadas might have a chance as a platoon DH against RHP but he strikes out a ton. The other two are just guys. Also 3 of the 4 are rule 5 eligible this offseason.
What a fucking pathetic organization the angels are
The angels currently hold the 3rd worst record in baseball
They have a 14% chance at the 1st pick next year
Yet Perry Minasian failed to trade any rentals aside from Estevez / Garcia and Arte Moreno failed to green light any trades involving players with multiple years of control
When you can’t even REBUILD or SELL correctly in a sellers market, you’re doing something wrong
This is easily the worst run organization in all of professional sports right now
@ryapauley the one about the brother getting his leg sliced open by a tweaking machete-wielding inmate while in a halfway home and how he listened to dude ranch on repeat while recovering from his wounds took the 🎂 extra points for “Travis” face tat script
Speaks volumes about the resiliency of culture to automated media that the most engaged with music of the year be beef tracks gossiping about the private lives of others
The media is only one part of a complex ritual
