@BeatlesEarth Yes. But I wish Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane were on it. Still…perfect as is. 🙏❤️☮️🪲

@FarOutMag Not to me. I adore @johnlennon’s solo catalog. Plastic Ono Band is one of the most incredible works of pure, brutal & honest artistry of all time. George’s was marvelous & as always, Paul’s output is brilliantly listenable. But John’s is my favorite, both in and after the Beatles

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world. Most of all, it’s a testament to the resilience and determination of the Hungarian people – and a reminder to all of us to keep striving for fairness, equality and the rule of law.

@ZimbabwePete @elonmusk @neuralink Beautiful 🥹 🥰 A true triumph of human ingenuity and scientific achievement! 🔬✨ Well done @neuralink and all who made this a reality!👏👏👏

Think about it…
This is beyond incredible and so very, very beautiful. Awesome work, deep appreciation, and respect to @Elonmusk and company @Neuralink. Can’t imagine how happy this individual & family must feel to have communication again.

@BeatlesEarth I remember when this video debuted on A-Beatles-C back in the 90s. So very FAB!

@calcottager Acknowledging what appears to be reality does not mean throwing in the towel. It means digging in.

@ZimbabwePete Heartbreaking—but perhaps as inevitable as the passage of time itself. To everything, there is a season.
And even in the barren wasteland, perhaps beneath the surface, lies the seed of a better day.
I know I'm not built to throw in the towel. Here’s hoping.

@ZimbabwePete I made a similar point on one of your earlier AI posts. What worries me long term—for my field and others—is not just job loss, but the erosion of the training paths that build essential expertise.
Forget “kill all the lawyers”… the skills themselves may die off.

This isn't just a story about lawyers. It's a story about career ladders. If AI wipes out the entry-level tasks, firms save money today but may lose the training ground that creates senior talent tomorrow.

@ZimbabwePete For heaven’s sake—hanging?! It’s hard not to feel like we’re heading for the “Stone Ages.” Brutal tribalism quashing love, integrity and reason.😔
Artemis is one bright light in a very dark stretch of weeks and months.
‘Integrity’—take me away…🚀🙏☮️❤️🌎

@seanonolennon IMHO, no human creation can compete with a tree, but that doesn’t make it unworthy. Beauty lies in creating. And, as the clichéd adage goes, “is in the eye of the beholder.” Isn’t that what art is all about?
What could be more beautiful or worthy than that?

Happy Easter Everyone!
Was just thinking this morning…
Imagine you’re sitting on a bench in a beautiful field surrounded by beautiful forest; like a scene from Bambi in Spring, animals and sunlight scattered everywhere in pastoral glory.
Okay, now imagine there is a large Jackson Pollack painting sat on an easel in front of you; bright colors splashed chaotically in every direction like skid marks on a New York pavement.
What does it look like in this setting? Does it look like art? Is it beautiful? Is it even interesting? Or does it look like something that should be removed? Does it look more like trash when compared to the majesty of its surroundings?
It just makes me wonder. It’s one thing to pretend we like Jackson Pollock while standing in a cement building in New York City, but once you take his painting outside, the object itself seems absurd, offensive even. What business do we have calling that ‘great art,’ when there is so much natural beauty around us?
I don’t think this applies to all modern art.
I heard that Brian Eno has a method of watching a river while listening to a mix. If the music doesn’t flow with the river, he knows he has to change something.
Maybe a good metric for painting should be—if we place it in a field surrounded by natural beauty, does it look nice there? Or would we rather just throw it in a bin?
I’m not saying painting has to be beautiful per se. I imagine any paining by Goya or Francis Bacon looking very elegant in a field somewhere.
But what is the point of making anything at all if it would be nicer to just stare at a tree?

@jaketapper @CityDogsRescue Thank you for adopting this dear boy. Those traps should be banned everywhere!

Meet Trooper, our new hound dog, rescued from a bear trap in West Virginia.
We adopted him through @CityDogsRescue in DC.
Such a good boy! 🐶
