I thought the MFA is the terminal (highest) degree one can earn in creative writing. Is this something new?

#AshWednesday today. I start a fast from #socialMedia for 6 wks. Fascinating & cool that Ash Wednesday & 1st day of #Ramadan start the same day this yr. Both = times of penitence. Hope others pick up on that too. We‘ve more in common than we think we do. #Islam #Christ #Jew #Hindu #Humanist #Wicca

I’ve observed that to be generally true as well.

#Causation, with regard to #massshootings, is very complex, defying simple-minded and polarizing attempts to attach blame. I wrote about it in the early days of my Curren(t) Thinking blog. doncurren.blogspot.com/2022/06/its-...

Your final sentence there really could work as new opening lyrics to that song! Try it!

What You've Suspected Is True: Billionaires Are Not Like Us Why Elon Musk and other tech billionaires have a different perspective

Excellent analysis from @rollingstone.com From my own admittedly anecdotal experience, what this author says is absolutely true: An individual’s rising #wealth tends to correlate positively with their higher-than-average #insensitivity and #entitlement. www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

I highly recommend @allmusic.com. Bringing you the finest old and new music info since 1995.

Yup. You got that right. AllMusic was on the #WorldWideWeb in the ‘90s — back when it was mostly just green letters and numerals on a black screen.

Chicago - What's This World Coming To? YouTube video by Parkwaymania

59 yrs ago today, #ChicagoTheBand founded in the home of #WalterParazaider. (He’s flutist on Color My World.) First called The Big Thing, then Chicago Transit Authority, & finally CHICAGO. Here’s one of their lesser known social commentary songs: youtu.be/FRX3WwfvdV0?...

It’s even better with the tempo sped up and a huge gospel choir singing it.

(2 of 2) Ron Howard seems to be island of Midwest sensibility, product of a FUNCTIONAL family in midst of W Coast craziness. Parents saved all $$ he earned as a kid 4 him 2 use as an adult. Refreshing! As an actor, he’s pretty much played himself. Haven’t reached part about him being a director yet.

(1 of 2) I’m Not normally a Hollywood news person. This one an exception. Audiobook starts slowly, then gets good. Narrated in alternating fashion by both of them. My conclusion so far: Real life Ron Howard = pretty much same person you’ve seen as an actor… (cont)

Amen. #Reporters, #publishers, etc. also need paychecks. What’s the answer? Limiting quality, accurate #news access was OK back when a newspaper cost a dollar. That’s not the case anymore. The only solution I can see: #micropayments. So far that’s going nowhere. Thus, most free news is shill news.

Including @bsky.app?

True that.
