Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 28/09/2026doesn't care about the iranian people at all, and that e) american bombs kill iranians indiscriminately, which in turn means that if you are average iranian trying to live a nice non-religious non-geopolitics life, you are pretty much fucked. not that we all don't know this, but still hard to hear. 010
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 28/09/2026just had a chat with an Iranian emigre nurse here in London.

Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 24/09/2026KROQ is playing in my car and Jed the Fish says "new song from LA's own Beck, here's Loser" and IT WAS A FUCKING BANGER. then i found Beercan, still to me the quintessential Beck song, and i was in love for life. truly a weird and unique genius. (Mario can be seen in the video for loser btw) 010
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 24/09/2026LA named Beck, who would be at these gatherings with his guitar and a boombox, playing beats and "singing" weird poetry while playing guitar, poorly. super nice person, but not really someone I rated as going to make it in our group of artist strivers. so imagine my surprise when two years later 2/ 110
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 24/09/2026so excited to read this book, and the excerpt from New York mag is outstanding. My Beck story: I moved to LA in 1991, and joined many of my Vassar friends in making that move.

Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 23/09/2026the bbc needs to be root and branched. it is not fit for purpose in these times. burnham needs levenson II and a complete overhaul of BBC leadership or he will fail as a leader. 051
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 22/09/2026don't sleep on the prosaically renamed rivers of western mass, you know your Mill Rivers and Mill creeks. i grew up swimming in them (better than the connecticut and its god knows what pollution) 010

Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 15/09/2026he's not listed on imdb pro, so it seems unlikely. 000
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 15/09/2026others. then there are people who say that climate change is going to create mass devastation and death for us all. they are not lying. listen to them. do what they say needs to be done. this is the assignment of the 2020s. we have three years to get our shit together. 000
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 15/09/2026there are two kinds of people: those that lie about AI's capabilities, using the threat of the human race being destroyed to fill their bags. those people are full of crap. don't believe them. there is no AGI and there won't be any soon.

Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 14/09/2026to be a republican is to hate children. hate the future. hate humanity. it is an anti-human political party, the most dangerous group of humans on the planet. it must be stopped at all costs for us to survive as a species. 010
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Yeah and maybe how many generals Americans will tolerate. If your spend time in dc a bunch of 1 and 2 star generals are always creating traffic with their security entourages. Get a real job! (later, they do, as a vp at a defense contractor) 000
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 11/09/2026That is so both unprinipled and unsupported by anything other than mysogyny. If your are a debate bro good luck. But also fuck off. 110
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 11/09/2026if you can't see that a "consistent set of ethics" that insists on civil liberties for some people but not for others is not, in fact, consistent, i have to assume you are either stupid or a man. taking away a woman's right to have agency over her own body is not very civil, liberty-wise. 130
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 11/09/2026and destroyed LA while they were at it. i'm old enough to remember when pitching content to SV assholes would get a cold stare, but then will ferrell and adam mackay got that sequoia money for funnyordie and it all went downhill. 1130

Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 11/09/2026so #911memories for me: the bravest person i can think of in post 9/11 war mongering, fear mongering, islamaphobia promoting america was David Rees. his cartoon @getyourwaron.bsky.social was a voice of sanity in an insane world, and it was pretty much alone in the culture. i had the chance in my 110
Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 11/09/2026the new Elephant Graveyard video is outstanding, and savage.

Robert Green @robogreen.bsky.social · 10/09/2026hentoff was a sexist pig who loved nothing more than the idea of the government telling certain people what to do. let's call them "womb people" because that's how he saw them. 1111
