Wondering if we can transition from wishing evil people would be Luigi’d to wishing they’d be Mangione’d. like “it’d Feel So Good to see ____ get Mangione’d” something like that

to be clear, of all the "there is no use case" examples for A.I., creative writing is absolutely the most no-use-case-iest creative writing that is not the creative product of a human mind intended for the enjoyment and enrichment and enlightenment of other human minds is, by definition, worthless

Gavin Newsom is so cool. Pure ambition, no values or even loosely held beliefs, assesses the current situation looking for a lane and instantly settles on People Are Into Evil Guys Now and sticks the pivot. Perfect clarity of purpose. He would be a danger to all those around him in any job he had.

I’ve been thinking about this, and generally I agree. I don’t like reducing jazz legends like that, with decades of creative output, to how they were then used by other artists

Cool but I object to “small town NJ.” Eatontown is like the commerce capital of the Jersey Shore, or at least Monmouth County

I think something a lot of people should know about Christian nationalism and its political project, is that it always goes back to being pro-segregationist

Why referring to Roy Ayers as a "frequently sampled jazz artist" doesn't come remotely close to capturing his full legacy. And other weird glitches and misrepresentations from our AI copy pasta present. By @steadynappin.bsky.social www.passionweiss.com/2025/03/07/r...

what’s insane making about the trans stuff is that it’s a fully astroturfed issue. not a single real person gave a shit about this 5 years ago! and yet here we are

RIP Roy Ayers, one of the last titans, whose sprawling influence transformed all of pop culture: from jazz to neo-soul, funk, disco & hip-hop. He settled in BK but was South Central's own, one of the true Central Ave geniuses refracting infinitely pure vibrations. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc7D...

It’s pretty interesting that both Tim Walz and Gavin Newsom are clearly positioning themselves to run for President and one thought he should publicize that he’s having diplomatic conversations with Canadian provinces close to Minnesota and the other thought he should publicize that he sucks

RIP the legend Roy Ayers. Doing the chronological deep dive of his discography, currently digging into this album feat. some unmistakable Joe Henderson-isms and "Ronnie Clark" (Herbie Hancock in disguise) open.spotify.com/track/7AY4Nk...
