@AdamSerwer Any plans to move to Mastodon?

Late, but the implication of this story is that Alito, who takes great umbrage at his integrity being questioned even while behaving as a devoted GOP apparatchik, leaked Dobbs to one of his rich pals as he sometimes does and it made its way to politico nytimes.com/2022/11/19/us/…

@tvaziri Meet the new Bob. Same as the old Bob.

wait ANOTHER Bob?

@its_adamneely I don't think he's "blaming" anything. He notes that there are different ways of constructing songs now. Using loops and composing with DAWs influences the music. Just like composing on a guitar or a piano does. The tools guide the creative process.

the author blames this trend on 1) hip hop and 2) DAW’s. …and I mean, sure, but James Brown didn’t change keys either. I pretty sure it wasn’t because he was producing his stuff in Ableton.

@tvaziri @ditzkoff Slow down Einstein.

@MonicaLewinsky Are you on mastodon yet?

Exhibit A: things i won’t miss on twitter. (should it actually die)

I posted something on Mastodon, noticed a slight typo and you know what I did? I edited it. @kingdomkrumb@mstdn.party

@dlefevre23 @AngryBrownsFan @CreekHoard_Iowa @MichaelWarbur17 They didn’t even bother plugging a cable into the electric guitar. 😂

@opinion_joe @paulkrugman I did. I didn’t see anywhere that Cuomo was ‘off the hook.’ Anyway, he resigned in disgrace. We’ll never really know if voters would have held him accountable for that. We do know that DeSantis (practically anti-vax at this point) won handily.

@kingdomkrumb @paulkrugman Read the whole tweet storm.

Can Ron DeSantis effectively challenge Trump? I have no idea. But one thing I hope doesn't get forgotten in the horse-race coverage is DeSantis's major achievement as governor: the unnecessary death of around 20,000 Floridians 1/

@opinion_joe @paulkrugman I don’t think anyone said Cuomo is off the hook.

@paulkrugman So according to you, Cuomo is off the hook for sending infected nursing home residents back to spread C19 in their facilities, but DeSantis is damned b/c Fl has the highest %age of elderly in the nation. Really?? If you adjust for age of population, Cal and Fl are even.

Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto expected to win now. Dems keep control of Senate.

At this point, fine. Whatever.

No idea what will happen with Twitter as a platform. I'm not opposed to using it. Might just wait and see. But it feels like a good excuse for me to put it down for a while and maybe spend free time on other things.

@megreenwell @wpmagazine Interesting article. No mention of the Finland experiment though. IIRC, conclusion was that it “failed”, but what they were measuring was whether folks w UBI were MORE likely to go to work. 🤔 (IMO that’s not the point of UBI.)

@StevieVanZandt Oh, the things that were socially acceptable in the US South right into the 50s.

Last word. Throughout history it was commonplace for a girl to be considered for marriage once they started menstruating. It remained socially acceptable right into the 50s in the US South. WE KNOW BETTER NOW. THIS IS WRONG. THIS IS A BAD IDEA. GET IT NOW? End of discussion.

@Rschooley “Stochastic terrorism”

@MonicaLewinsky continues to be one of the coolest people around. 😍

Interestingly, just a couple days ago, the hopeless Republican challenger to Nancy Pelosi sent out mailers with predictably apocalyptic language.
