No one believes me when I say this, but the decline in reading is already having dire consequences for art & culture. The media you loved in your youth—shows, albums, films—was made by artists who were widely read. You will not have that quality of art in a post-literate world.

@mertonesque Van Halen. Pantera. Dream Theater.

The sudden cancellation of this show was a crime against television

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@EsotericCD Instead I might ask: Will George Clinton and James Fauntleroy come do features if you *don't* give them writing credits?

Will Thundercat spend a year making a record with you if he *doesn't* get writing credit?

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@EsotericCD re: Kendrick- Hip-Hop has been fundamentally collaborative, back since its inception.

And re: both Taylor and Kendrick, a writing credit can mean a wider range of contributions than it used to. I would not necessarily read into it that these artists *need* all the writers.

@Sen_Gounardes This is good, but in addition, super speeders should go to jail.

@souljagoyteller Severance, Rome, The Wire, Carnivale.

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@KeithPowersNYC This is a pretty disappointing position to take.

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@jeremymstamper Fiona Apple's cover of Across the Universe.

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@SonnyBunch Sopranos, Rome, Carnivale maybe........what's the fourth? I'd have The Wire at #3 for sure.

[Sonny Bunch @SonnyBunch]

Lot of words here to just say that the Never Trumpers were always right about Trump's temprament rendering him totally unfit for the awesome power of the presidency.

@zachdcarter Everyone I work for is making their songs for real. Everyone my colleagues work for is also making their songs for real.

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@zachdcarter I believe it happens, 100%. But I can also say with near-certainty it's not infiltrating the major centers of the professional music industry.

[Dilan Esper @dilanesper]

This is how Trump got elected the first time.

But Democrats need to think long and hard about how he got elected the second.

The reality is the Biden Administration SHOULD have modeled responsible problem solving as a contrast to what Trump was. But it didn't.

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@AlecMacGillis Gotta say, I bought a new Corolla Hybrid, payments are *well* under that average. People might want more car than that but very few people *need* more car than that. There's no reason to spend $40k-$50k on a vehicle if you can't afford it.

[ettingermentum @ettingermentum]

Joe Biden will be looked upon poorly because he failed at stopping Trump’s return, which was the core project of his administration

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@sunnyright The SAVE Act, if passed into law, is very obviously going to be selectively enforced, with partisan aims.

[jonathan jetter @jonjetter]

@ajlamesa Yes, but, at least in NYC, my local precinct has no interest in enforcement. My council member doesn't treat it as a priority (staffers have said this over the phone). My state assembly rep acknowledges the problem and has at least co-sponsored the Super Speeders bill.

[Conor Friedersdorf @conor64]

A person with normal epistemic humility would say, "I was mistaken when I concluded that a Trump vote would make war with Iran less likely." That is in fact what happened.
