70% of the way through this, and I already think it's one of the most compelling books written about the rapacious industrialization of what ought to have been a beneficial technology. @karenhao.bsky.social has done an *outstanding* job. Highly recommended.

I never got to hear Geri Allen perform live. In fact, I only heard about her because folks like Jason Moran and Terri Lynn Carrington continually revisit and uplift her music in *their* performances. We need to talk about her music and contributions more. She's criminally underrated.

1. The Arizona legislature passed three anti-trans bills... but they did not become law. That is because Governor Katie Hobbs has just vetoed all of them. They would have barred birth certificate updates and banned colleges from mentioning gender identity. Subscribe to support my journalism.

With the improved resolution of tennis balls over electrons, scientists can finally observe down to Planck length. Unsurprisingly, everything down there is just made of… well, planks.
