@TheCrashCourse I feel like the fact that there was no mention of Judaism being an ethnoreligion and was just treated as the same kind of religion as Christianity was a huge miss.

There's no understanding Judaism without understanding that.

@TomFrankly your Notion API tutorial was so helpful for learning how to add data to Notion using the API! Any chance you'll make a similar one on querying it (specifically from apps like iOS Shortcuts or Widgy)?

People seem to really get offended if you say that people should stay home if they're sick.

Yet somehow, telling immunocompromised and disabled people to stay locked away forever is perfectly acceptable to them.

[Katie Notopoulos @katienotopoulos]

huh, I wonder if there could be a person behind a company that created radically new business and editorial incentives for some of the big changes to magazine journalism in the last, say 15 years

With anti-TikTok legislation moving in Congress, good time to read my piece about how many TikTokers have landed on conspiracy theories about Jews being behind it, preventing them from understanding why the bill is happening and doing anything about it: https://t.co/da1JCLr3zi

Really happy to have a diary this morning so I can pour all my disappointments onto the page and not yuck anyone’s yum (I hate that phrase — is there a better one?)

Taylor swift lyrics relate to a very specific type of white woman, and that kind of white woman is also very prone to thinking their experience is universal.

I like Taylor’s music fine, but in no way because I relate to it. Partly because I don’t.

[emily may @emilykmay]

the thing about taylor swift is that she so perfectly encapsulates through her lyrics, the interior lives of women. It's why we all can't stop listening. We're all saying, "wait you felt that way? we were all feeling this way?"

do men have someone like that?

[Brittany Berger @thatbberg]

@ThatChristinaG this is why I argue that despite the work vs. personal distinction, LinkedIn and Instagram are fundamentally the same now. they're both about performing your ideal version of self (either your weekday self or weekend self) with a sprinkle of faux vulnerability now and then

[alexa @glusong]

okay but where is chappell roan’s grammy

[Brittany Berger @thatbberg]

I need someone to make a mash up sooooo badly.

Like imagine “put your hands on your hips and let your backbone slip” going into “we shakin we swimming we jerkin we twerkin”

Im already obsessed

Has AI improved OCR tools yet?

I’m longing for the day I don’t have to manually transcribe my handwritten notes into a word doc 😭

Improving handwriting recognition seems like the kind of thing AI would be good at though?

@emilykmay the mental illness reference makes me laugh because part of it is also that i've always felt that i was too mentally ill to relate to her kinda normcore experiences.

[Brittany Berger @thatbberg]

@emilykmay INTJ & too many diagnoses for a tweet's character limit.

the ones i've heard that aren't her poppier hits have always felt overdramatic and overpoetic, like they give me the same feeling as reading an essay someone wrote with a thesaurus right next to them.

[Kat Tenbarge is on Bluesky @kattenbarge]

I was genuinely shocked to find out that people were treating this like gossip and not the jaw-dropping investigation and portrayal of psychological manipulation and duplicity that it is https://t.co/fvPPxanFM3

Unpopular opinion:

Writing content is one of ChatGPT's worst use cases.

give CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND the SUITS treatment it should be #1 across the globe

I love everything about what's listed here but also would like to point out that Adam Schlesinger was in Ivy a totally underrated band these days that had perfect needledrops in in shows like Felicity, Roswell, Veronica Mars, Grey's Anatomy and more

[𝕯𝖎𝖑𝖉𝖔 𝕭𝖆𝖌𝖌𝖎𝖓𝖘 @EmmaTolkin]

The thing about Adam Schlesinger is that he was a once in a lifetime genius. Not only did his bands rule— he also wrote ALL your favorite songs that fictional bands/popstars play!! (That Thing You Do, Josie & the Pussycats, most of the songs on Crazy Ex-GF and in Music & Lyrics)
