I can say that the American Federation of Musicians has made a conscious effort to invest in and prioritize organizing in the past few years. So, it is not a coincidence that we are seeing more effective organizing campaigns, from YOLA to the San Francisco Opera orchestra to recording musicians.

Upon the recommendation of the esteemed @baybayfriend.bsky.social I have decided to post one exceptionally spooky episode of Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell (and a few episodes of his Sunday night show "Dreamland") every day this month! Link to the archive I'm using below!

What Pablo Torre did was ridiculously impressive. Uncovered a conspiracy between rich guys, withstood a propaganda campaign by one of the richest guys in the world with a pretty good reputation, didn't buckle or panic, and just kept reporting. That's some Pulitzerin' right there.

Journalism matters. It seems so RARE to see a billionaire face consequences, but Pablo Torre and team have spent over a year bringing the misconduct of Steve Ballmer et al to light in a way that the NBA could no longer ignore.

Maybe It Will Happen Today @today-maybe.bsky.social · 09/07/2026
A digital illustration in a pencil and watercolor mode. Showing Patrick McGoohan as Number Six in the classic outfit of a black blazer with white piping over a navy turtleneck and khaki pants. He is plodding quite angrily up a cobblestone path being herded along by Rover which is a big, white, wobbly balloon that provides security and enforces the rules in The Village which is where #6 is trapped. Some buildings and landscaping of The Village can be seen in the background. In the immediate foreground on the right is a signpost — a black and white striped pole topped with a little striped awning thing in an L shape with a vertical arrangement of four individual placards hanging down from it. The placards, in the distinctive typeface used in all Village design, read ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

Moving into a new apartment with my partner and obviously the first things brought in are a portion of my weightlifting gear. My dreams of a viola studio/weightlifting room are coming along nicely.

Wemby: “I refuse to carry the burden of having to hide my emotions.” This is amazing.

"Wemby's too emotional." "Wemby should stop crying." "Wemby's gay."
Can we stop with the tired old clichés that treat emotions as a weakness, either in sports or in life in general?
I asked Wemby about why that is. Here's his response:
"That's a tough question. I think it's first and foremost a fear of judgment. Like this feeling that you have to act a certain way, social codes, I guess. Personally, I refuse to carry the burden of having to hide my emotions."
