In some alternate reality I'm still on the radio AND making music. Find me on other social platforms under the same handle.

Decided to leave the bile + alternative facts behind. Been on Twitter since '09 and really found my tribe here. Over the past four years also used it for PhD hybrid fieldwork. For that reason, I'll keep the profile but mothball it. Find me on Threads/BlueSky 🧵 Over and out! 💬

@DavidVeevers1 Don't be a stranger, may see you down the road. P.S. finally finished the audiobook, a brilliant piece of work.

Looking forward to presenting at the @OfficialBAAS PG Symposium on Thurs and 'zooming' in virtually to the University of Sussex. Been working on my paper this evening, 'American Requiem: Addressing the black roots of country music and deconstructing a pre-determined future'.

Watched the new documentary this evening on musician and composer extraordinaire, John Williams. Just the most wonderful music, and an amazing life story. The perfect antidote to the world outside right now. You can find it on Disney+ ondisneyplus.disney.com/movie/music-by…

This 👇 Exactly why I'm still here (and on other platforms). We have to shine those lights in the dark and although grately diminished, I still find some of my tribe hanging on in this space 💛
Beci Carver@becimay

If you’re leaving Twitter now, I’ll miss you. For me it’s still a decent antidote to feeling intellectually alone, not that that goes away (maybe it shouldn’t), but it does soften when I’m here. Yes Elon’s everywhere now; I weave through to the people I like at the party 🩵

Trying to find the light in little things this week, away from the news and more in nature. For me it's the turning of the seasons and autumn leaves. My favourite season of the year 🧡🍂

Big days in politics are bookmarked by a brilliant @BBCNewsnight montage. Here is tonight’s courtesy of @adamlivingst0n3. I always urge broadcaster journalism students to check them out. You’ll see camera angles and music choices you didn’t see elsewhere

@Komaniecki_R Took my son to school, worked on a PhD chapter I'm writing about black women in US country music, then picked my son up and took him to his swimming lesson. Anything to take my mind off reality today.

Hey everyone. What are you doing today? I’m going to get my girls dressed and off to daycare, then teach a video game music class. Love, Robert

Jon Stewart’s 2-minute history lesson here is worth everyone’s time before we start confidently breaking out our theories of what happened

Is it that Harris is a woman? Is the misogyny that deep in America?

You have to watch the whole thing to see how excellent it is, they especially nailed The Donald and Joe. Brilliant, and a savvy move from VP Harris two days out! 🔥
Art Candee 🍿🥤@ArtCandee

In case you missed Saturday Night Live last night… Here is the entire full SNL cold open with Maya Rudolph, VP Kamala Harris, Andy Samburg, Jim Gaffigan, Bowen Yang, and Dana Carvey. James Austin Johnson nailed Donald Trump! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
