I lecture about political science, social media and media & politics @ York University, I used to write a lot about music but I don’t so much anymore. I still watch too much tennis. He/him.

I first read this as « was huffing gas » and honestly it’s not wrong either
Tubi is such a crazy streaming service. It’s like if the Criterion Closet was in a gas station

This is very cute and sweet, and French supermarket chain Intermarché is rightly getting a lot of praise for this ad featuring beautiful 3D animation created by a French studio (Illogic Studios) that required the work of about 100 people instead of using generative AI. youtu.be/Na9VmMNJvsA?...

It’s not a perfect clip, but someone put on YouTube the Mavericks’s first song (there’s about 30 seconds of noise/tuning at the top of the clip and it cuts off) from the 2014 CNE show that I saw, and just from « Tell Me Why » you can hear what a powerful live band this was.

Ah yes, using the « genius-level at everything intelligence » that hallucinates simple academic sources and gives useful tips to teens about how to self-harm to raise a newborn. What could possibly go wrong.
Jimmy Fallon: "And do you use ChatGPT when raising your baby?"

Sam Altman: "I cannot imagine figuring out how to raise a newborn without ChatGPT."

Raul Malo had without a doubt the most extraordinary voice I ever heard in person, and the Mavericks are one of the great American bands of the last four decades.

Fuck cancer.

This is definitely about as cool as I would expect the British group of studio singers/musicians who recorded one of the very best Beach Boys soundalikes to look. youtu.be/oeGPpwFpIAA?...

I’m seeing a lot of panettone slander online this year and I will not stand for it.

A tourist on Reddit asked if everything will still be open in Québec City when it’s -5 (Celsius) outside and I can’t remember the last time I laughed this hard.

Inducting in the HOF the guy whose offensive numbers benefited the most from batting in the same lineup as Barry Bonds but keeping Bonds out is wild.
Jeff Kent getting in, after being teammates with Barry Bonds, arguably the greatest player ever, is so ridiculous

So there was a Record Store Day release that unfortunately seems to be suffering from a widespread pressing issue and lots of listeners are getting a full side of Lil Durk.

See my next post for the reveal of the RSD album in question.

Victoria Mboko a connu l’une des plus belles saisons de tennis de notre histoire en remportant un titre lors d’un tournoi de catégorie 1 000 de la WTA et en accédant rapidement au top 20. 
 
Victoria, ton histoire nous inspire, et les meilleurs chapitres restent encore à écrire.

Victoria Mboko had one of the most exciting tennis seasons in Canadian history — a WTA 1000 title and a surge into the top 20. 
 
Victoria, your story is an inspiration, and the best chapters are yet to be written.

Compare with the original scene and not only can you see how they used an alternate or pre-FX version where they haven’t digitally removed the crew, you can also see how horrible the colours and the lighting looks in this new one.
