We're lucky to have the courageous @GretaThunberg. I enjoyed her takedown of the professional misogynist as much as any right-thinking person. NOW I would absolutely love it if just a fraction of the people who liked & shared her hilarious tweets would amplify her message. 1/8

Literally no one wants this.
Spotify just announced a feature that could either save the music industry or destroy it. Starting as early as Q1 2027, Spotify Premium subscribers will be able to use AI to transform any participating artist’s song into a completely different version. Turn a folk ballad into a dance track. Make a hip-hop song sound acoustic. Generate a cover where one artist’s voice performs another artist’s song. Remix a pop hit into lo-fi study music. Create the version of your favorite song that only existed in your head until now. The remixes will be uploaded directly to Spotify. They’ll appear in playlists. They’ll count toward the original song’s chart position. And most importantly the original artist will earn royalties every time someone listens to a fan-created remix of their work. Spotify has already signed a landmark licensing deal with Universal Music Group the world’s largest record label. Negotiations with Sony Music and Warner Music are ongoing. The feature will cost an additional $4–$5/month on top of Spotify Premium. And analysts project 7–8% of American subscribers will adopt it by 2028. This is not Suno or Udio generating music from text prompts. This is fans remixing real songs by real artists with the artists’ permission, on the world’s largest streaming platform, with royalties flowing back to the creators. A music industry analyst who’s covered streaming economics for 15 years told her team something after reading the licensing agreement that reframed how she understood the future of recorded music. β€œSpotify just turned 640 million listeners into 640 million potential remixers. The question isn’t whether people will use it they will. The question is whether paying artists for fan remixes solves the economics of streaming or creates a world where the original recording is worth less than the infinite remixes generated from it.” Here’s what Spotify’s AI remix feature actually is, who wins, who loses, and why this might be the most consequential decision in the music industry since the launch of streaming itself 🧡

When I first saw this clip I thought she was referring to Charlie’s favorite brand of hot sauce. But no, as it turns out they are selling Kirk Hot Sauce for $8.99.
Erika Kirk: β€œIt’s the little things. I miss Charlie when I see his hot sauce on the shelf, which is now available at grocery stores everywhere.” It’s an instinct.

We all know who lol
BREAKING 🚨: MI5 have confirmed that a high profile β€œRIGHT WING” activist has been working for them under cover and they have even lied to multiple courts to try cover it up. The high court ruled that it wouldn’t be in the public interest to bring contempt proceedings against MI5. This individual was known to the MI5 as β€œAgent X”

There has been no justice in this case. Not even a full and proper investigation IMO.

Here again, Jon Ossoff manages to explain Don Jr's sudden personal wealth through complex corporate juggling in simple language to a mass audience. His talent is a reputational nightmare for the Trump circle.
This is why Jon Ossoff won in a landslide in Georgia. He took the gloves off and didn’t pussyfoot around the truth. Putting aside the fact I wrote about what he said here when many were silent, he’s making the case for why Democrats MUST now hold these monsters accountable. This isn’t about retribution, it’s about ensuring what Trump and his puppet masters have done NEVER happens again THAT is what the American people voted for. Of course legislation is a priority it was a priority they didn’t address in 2024, when they failed hard pressed American families who were screaming for help, while they were chasing upper middle class voters who were NEVER going to vote for them. Then, when they were punished for it at the ballot box, they blamed the American people for rejecting them, and then stayed silent for almost a year while Trump dismantled democracy and tore down the government. If Democratic leadership can’t walk and chew gum at the same time, then step the fuck aside and let someone who can deliver justice to the American people get the job done. I’d go even further and suggest they step down anyway, because they don’t have the integrity or the trust required for this mission critical moment. This is NOT the time for more of the same old same old, and that’s what this current leadership represents I’m afraid. It’s why they went into this election with popularity ratings underwater. This landslide was NOT about a ringing endorsement of the Democratic Party, it was a repudiation of a broken political system. It’s time for a PEOPLE FIRST REVOLUTION. This is a once in a generation opportunity to deliver transformative change. GET IT DONE. Oh and before I finish, why does Hakeem Jeffries put full stops in the most odd places in his totally irritating sentences? An orator he is not I’m afraid, yet in a comedic twist of irony, he’s about to become Speaker of the House. Democrats can and MUST do better. They need to listen and READ THE ROOM, otherwise 2028 will be a repeat of 2024. It’s hard to hear I know, but sometimes the truth hurts and someone has to say it. πŸŽ₯ TikTok - vm.tiktok.com/ZGdXhb6VE/

🚨HORRIBLE: An entire population in Gaza is being left to face freezing rain, flooded tents, and endless misery, all because the Israeli army destroyed their homes, prevented their reconstruction, and blocked the entry of essential equipment and materials needed to rebuild them.

Yesterday I begged for help before disaster struck. Today, my tent is flooded! πŸ’” I am surrounded by water, and everything we own is soaked. Please help me get a new tent. Don't leave me alone. πŸ™ All the food was spoiled due to the rain. @deedeehimawari chuffed.org/project/157051-u…

Someone buy Dannii Minogue a drink In 2006 she stated it in an interview what Brand was like. Not taking "no" for an answer and being the biggest creep imaginable but it was completely ignored by the media

Malignant narcissist Trump has appointed the psychopath Stephen Miller to be his chief of staff. The Trump regime calculates they have 58 days remaining of unchecked power to give the strongest support to fascist Russia and do the most damage to American democracy.

Ms. Rachel Challenges the World's Silence on Gaza: Why Are People Still Afraid to Call It Genocide "Under Article II of the 1948 UN Genocide Convention, committing even one of five prohibited acts with genocidal intent constitutes genocide. A UN Commission concluded that Israel is responsible for four out of these five genocidal acts in Gaza"

On Thursday I wrote about the 2014 injunction Russell Brand obtained against a woman who accused him of assault. I've now obtained the final order. It's breathtaking. She had no lawyer. No trial. Yet she was silenced for life - even barred from speaking to the police. 🧡:
