Although X engagement with new publications is still strong and of quality, there’s a large body of “reposting” activity that seems largely focussed on a certain body of work: vaccine scepticism, MMR, autism, ivermectin, etc. To literally nobody's surprise. 5/11

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer. "Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

Recordatorio que Zelenski era, hasta hace dos días, el Andreu Buenafuente de Ucrania. La dignidad y valentía moral no está en los que se las dan de machotes.

Cualquiera que haya leído a Cervantes y su afecto comprensivo por los presos, los islámicos, los judíos conversos, las mujeres de "mala nota" y todas las variaciones del enamoramiento sabe que el WOKE es una etiqueta de moda para la lucha de siempre: la de la regresión contra la tolerancia.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

So far in the last 24 hours, Russia's gotten: - a sympathetic ear/voice installed as DNI - the release of a crime boss - Hegseth ceding Crimea to them - Trump offering a WH visit - The US acting as middleman rather than Ukraine ally

Everyone thinking was US right?

At long last, Trump is delivering relief to the poor innocents who just want to commit sexual assault at our nation’s schools and colleges

Search on music services is broken. Something as simple as searching for "jazz standards piano" doesn't work at all on Spotify, YouTube Music, or Amazon Music. Playlist results are worthless and full of AI-generated junk, we already know that. But album searches are broken too. (continues)

You'd expect to find popular albums by well-known artists first, but this search currently yields no Chick Corea, no Keith Jarret, just unknown artists that feel like products of an AI music factory. How come there isn't an equivalent of Idagio for jazz? I'd happily pay good £ for it. www.idagio.com
