Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Humboldt-Forum: man geht durch das Portal, über dem groß „Haupteingang“ projiziert ist, und kriegt dann zu hören: „Nein, hier sind Sie falsch, Sie müssen wieder raus und einmal um das halbe Gebäude rum gehen“ 🙄

These 1920s costumes for dancing — more sculpture than clothing — by the avant-garde couple Lavinia Schulz and Walter Holdt, were born of an artistic philosophy of suffering: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/tanzmasken

Much like "crab", industrial music is constantly re-evolving from first principles basically anywhere where there's a bunch of metal and plastic laying about

Ich hatte noch nicht mitbekommen, dass man die BBC Radio-Mediathek (BBC Sounds) nicht mehr außerhalb des UK nutzen kann 😢 Jetzt gibt’s nur noch Livestreams. Sehr schade, und die Welt wird wieder ein bisschen kleiner (und GB ist offenbar gewillt, auch noch den letzten Rest Soft Power aufzugeben) 😕

The word “Research” is doing way too much work. We need separate words for “creating new verifiable knowledge” and “looking shit up on the internet”

This is the end result of anti-trans bigotry: more harassment of girls and women, more policing of gender roles, more gender McCarthyism.

Die Enshittification der Uni: früher konnte man sich einfach mit Benutzernamen + Passwort im WLAN anmelden. Dann musste man irgendwelche Konfigurationsdingsbums installieren. Jetzt muss man eine *App* runterladen, nur um sich mit dem Internet verbinden zu können 🙄

A Borges story about a guy who gets AI to summarize all the world’s information for him, and then summarize the summary, until the AI has the whole world summarized into a single word. He sits alone at his desk, staring at the word, repeating it endlessly, certain he is experiencing everything
