Sure, it's #BandcampFriday, and if that works for you, great. My stuff is there. But if you really want to support the artists you love, buy a show ticket, or buy merch directly from their website. #americana #altcountry #indyartist jaystottmusic.com/store

Remembering Sister Rosetta Tharpe, born in 1915 in Cotton Plant, Arkansas. Here she's performing "Didn't It Rain" at a train depot in Manchester, England in 1964. She's often called the "Godmother of Rock & Roll" and influenced future music icons like Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Elvis Presley.

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

Axios writer: I melted my brain with AI. Not only can I no longer read, but I don't even understand the purpose of reading anymore. Here's how you can also do this. www.axios.com/2026/08/11/r...
Axios: AI has become my reading buddy as I've plowed through my summer book list, helping me keep track of plots and characters, unpack themes, and make sense of wordy, old prose.

Why it matters: The way many of us actually read books — a few pages before bed, a chapter at the beach, another on a plane — makes it easy to lose the thread. AI can help you pick it back up without starting over.
📖 I really got into using AI while reading James Fenimore Cooper's "The Last of the Mohicans." The text was far too dense for casual vacation reading. My first prompt asked:

"I'd like a guide as I read The Last of the Mohicans who can help me understand what I've read and where the story is, without giving spoilers or getting ahead of my progress. Can you do this, chapter by chapter?"
The robot agreed: "Cooper's sentences are long and his diction is archaic."

Wise words from Steve...
Short description: A sketch-style illustration of an anthropomorphic otter named Steve standing behind a cluttered news desk, holding a steaming mug of coffee against a pale blue background.

Baked-in text:  
Name tag on the otter’s chest: “Steve”  
Logo in the corner: “in Ötter News”  

Caption:  
“Do not seize the day. That only startles it, and nobody wants to deal with an aggressive day before coffee.

Approach it slowly. Avoid eye contact. Maybe offer a polite nod. Act casual.

If the day growls, starts making demands, or mentions shenanigans back away quietly and return to bed.”
