Less than 8 hours after the assassination of the CEO of United in Manhattan and there is already a VHS short film on the kid tracking the killers’ CitiBike ride using the Lyft app and a python script.

I guess in a few years we'll look back on Big Social the way we look back on Big Tobacco now. Except they'll have all our data and will have to make choices about what to do with it. I guess they'll just reward us enough to be chill.

Who do you think is consistently releasing excellent live sets? Four Tet is near the top of my list. This one was no exception. But always looking for more :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbWCjU2M5cQ

Has anyone read this? Finding mixed reviews online. Looks interesting.

Kai Cenat just concluded Mafiathon 2. He maintained 100-250k concurrent viewers for 30 days straight. And set records for new subs and revenue. His impact on young people (especially boys) on the internet is massive. At the end, he got on with his closest friends and they cried together. He talked about what it means to him to do this and encouraged people to chase their dreams. It’s a little endearing a little corny. But its a big deal for a man with this platform to get on there and express himself this way. With his friends around him, encouraging him to let it out. The internet will never not be a dark forest, but it’s reassuring to know young men have some role models with emotional depth :)

Have talked to several people 60+ yrs who have been shocked that Wicked is part one of a series. They’re flabbergasted that a three hour movie is not the whole story. People my age expected it. Cool insight into the hyperfinancialization of culture/media and the numbness that comes with being younger and more online.

LLMs slowly warping my tolerance for nonessential information. My own fault for using Fandango I guess, but insta closed the tab. Nothing against Wicked - but I am in search of information.

Did you know there is one single song that has been covered by both Jeff Buckley and Lana Del Ray? It’s called The Other Woman and is sung by Nina Simone. When thinking about legacy in music the highest signal indication is how much other artists like an artist. Nina Simone is towards the top of the list. Great song and artist. https://youtu.be/CIrtBesN8GY?si=8tgruTd9DY5jJuop

I'm optimistic that the AI-ification of creative content will result in more ads like the Volvo release from last month. Pendulum swinging and floor raising. https://youtu.be/cQX-QXxwGvA?si=kBxnsjBBIDY8nVpM Worth a watch if you haven't already.
