This piece is essential reading for everyone in Massachusetts. The proposals pose real risks to everyone, including kids. @evangreer.bsky.social and @nathaliemarechal.net explain why and what could be done instead.

It was journalistic malpractice to show up before this news, now it’s just embarrassing.

I have threaded the long black strands of hair onto my guitar, six of them tuned to a minor chord. The strings tighten and warp. The neck bends, the bone pegs creak. A ghostly voice sounds. Maria sings in the night.

CDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visits The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.

This isn’t a scientific debate.

This is government censorship.

This is Lysenkoism, as @gregggonsalves.bsky.social pointed out last year.

And this will not end well.

A brown ceramic bowl filled with porrusalda sits on a white plate. The soup is thick and creamy with leeks, potatoes, and carrots blended into the broth. Crisp chorizo, golden croutons, and melted manchego cover the top.

🥔
In this humble bowl the leeks and potatoes speak as old companions, while chorizo and manchego rise in brave counsel above them, turning a simple broth into a tale worthy of any wandering knight facing a windmill giant. #TheOutpost #Cooking #Cooksky #Foodsky #Recipe #Soup

I was lucky to see Charles Curtis perform on Sunday and had to revisit this piece. Just absolutely gorgeous work.

I swear, I get a full-body tinglies when I discover new music that I really like. It's the coolest feeling.

‘We did a seance for Beethoven, to see what he thought’: the playful, pioneering life of field-recording maestro Annea Lockwood The New Zealand composer burned pianos, sampled earthquakes and recorded Belfast’s peace walls. And at 86 is still invested in her life’s work: to appreciate the music in everyday sound

There's only one Annea Lockwood.

Oh yeah, such a great band. I spun ‘Day and Night’ last week. The peel sessions are also great.

International Law Is Being Used to Restrain Iran, Enable US and Israel Western countries condemn restrictions in the Hormuz Strait more than the “clearly unlawful war,” says Maryam Jamshidi.

“International law is being deployed in this moment as a way of restraining and regulating Iranian behavior, while effectively allowing the United States and Israel a free hand to do what they want,” says law professor Maryam Jamshidi.

Big fan over here. Thx for the context

The fact that y’all have all the time in the world to philosophize about how much you hate Platner but no time in the world to talk about his opponent @andrealaflamme.bsky.social says a lot about the seriousness of your interest in the Maine race

Newsrooms should not block the Internet Archive. Any public service publisher should not block the Internet Archive. If anything, we should all be directly supporting the Internet Archive.

Yeah this framing is absurd
