Notice how when Republicans do crazy shit like "expel members of the Tennessee legislature for protesting school shootings" there's no hand wringing in the media about how this will change norms and open the GOP up to retaliation from the Dems the same way there is with Trump being prosecuted.

Please stop laughing at CatGPT. Please stop sharing this picture. It's not funny. This is a slippery slope. It might only meow for now, but what's next? What will our cats do if CatGPT takes their jobs? Do we really want artificial intelligence to sleep all day? To scoff at the $50 worth of cat food you just purchased? To knock your full glass of water over and feel zero remorse when it shatters on the floor? Call me a Luddite, but I believe we must destroy CatGPT to protect our feline friends.

As a Tennessean, I request that everyone not do business in #Tennessee. Don't give this state your tourist dollars. Don't do business here. Do not seek a job here. I love you hacker fam, but don't attend conferences here.
What is happening now is the upending of democracy in our Statehouse. Not by an armed coup, but an abuse of procedures in an attempt to excise the GOP's political enemies, and make voting irrelevant. #USpol

On today's expulsion of the two Black representatives, but not the white rep, Elie Mystal summed it up pretty darn well: "Tennessee has now given the entire country an object lesson in critical race theory better than any AP history course ever could have. Everybody sees it now. Everybody knows it now. Everybody gets exactly what is going on."

Taj has that deep, smoky voice. And the guitars compliment each other so beautifully.

Hoping the fediverse can help out: I'm in touch with a Ukranian family in #Toronto who are trying to get their cat (named Milana, in photo) from #Kraków, #Poland to Toronto this spring. They can cover some transport costs but are trying to connect with someone already making the trip. Email milana at hypatia.ca if you can help. Please boost!

All of Evan Gershkovich’s @wsj reporting is now paywall free.
As you read these, remember Evan was out on assignment, trying to bring us all more articles like these, when he was detained in Russia last week. #IStandWithEvan https://www.wsj.com/news/author/evan-gershkovich

Driving through #Hopi to get to the other side of #NavajoNation for a #uranium cleanup article I came across a sign for a coffee shop.
I stopped only for coffee, but after talking with Hopi Grounds coffee shop owner Gary Tso - I knew this was a story.

The doors were locked.
The teachers were armed.
TN expanded firearm access.
The police arrived in minutes.
Covenant school had everything that MAGA GOP assured us prevents & stops mass shootings. And 3 babies & 3 adults were murdered in seconds.😳
IT’S—THE—GUNS

@zaxusemk That was a fun way to kill an unusual Sunday where I didn't have to work. I hope to catch you again!
#Blues #Slideguitar #RoryGallagher I ran across this today, and I guess we can add lap steel to the list of instruments he played. The audience participation is crazy! #acoustic "River of Whiskey" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMim0D0dqLk&ab_channel=RoryWeb2011

Everyone is suddenly reporting what I’d already tooted/was already announced the other day, that #Trump will speak from #Florida on Tuesday after arraignment.
Dear The News:
Do not carry one word of this live. If he makes real news, report it afterwards, show clips if you must, but don’t play into his tiny hands yet again.
Who am I kidding? Sigh.

There need to be more good reconstructive recordings of Chaucer that distinguish all the sounds reconstructible for 14th century Middle English, and I guess if you want a thing done right you gotta do it your own self.
So here's me reading the first 78 lines of the prologue to the Canterbury Tales (the opening and the description of the Knight), complete with a somewhat freehanded modern English prose paraphrase.
