That’s what you get for trying to have a real life.

And a tiny bit of white wine, and some salt. Freaking delicious.

The concept is wonderful. I do not trust Elon with that concept. I worry that many folks with high hopes of this helping them will just end up used and hurt.

According to that site, Napster pays more. Here’s the info on TIDAL:

I use Napster. I chose it way back when Spotify paid for the Rogan podcast, from a list of platforms that pay artists more. I’m not sure if that’s true any longer, but look it up! I’ve been really happy with their service. (And it’s really full circle for me, since I used their original service decades ago.)

ETA I can’t vouch for the accuracy of this site, but it says Napster is still one of the top-paying platforms.

It was apparently before the college campus protests. I wonder what he thinks about those.

Maybe we would finally get prison reform, then

I think you’re confusing a wealth tax with an income tax. They’re different. As for how these wealthy people pay, it’s not up to the government to figure out how someone pays their taxes. The onus is on the taxpayer.

Orange. Pure orange, yellow orange, neon, burnt. Not so much red-orange, but I do love oranges that have a bit of a pink sheen, like padparadscha sapphires.

Video killed the radio star. Still remember watching Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit ad nauseum.

And you stuck to the main, very large highways instead of trying the smaller routes. I always wonder if the Waze era of travel has helped or hurt smaller communities.

Minneapolis should make public transit free for a few* months, to encourage folks to use that instead. Golden opportunity.

How about you just don’t make this kind of analogy in the year 2024?

Twelve FEET? Like, two six-foot- tall people standing on top of each other?? 🤯

“The government” doesn’t want to argue that. Some idiot politicians do.

Thanks, I was wondering if Taylor Swift’s team won!

Swift could easily be 6’5" in the right heals.

For my generation, it was mostly TV. Same for Xers and Boomers, though they were also allowed to roam with no adult supervision. The habit of neglecting children is ingrained in our society, and computers are just the newest method.
