🪐 Space & Time Magazine

Authortunities

Glad to see that “Space & Time” is sticking around.

It's a storied publication and well worth a trip to the archive. The switch to monthly keeps things fresh, though theme calls are only as interesting as the tenders who field them.

Luckily, Angela Yuriko Smith is a gem of an editor.

I've not been in this pub, but I've submitted a couple of times. No one likes a “close but no cigar” rejection. In fact, those replies are often more infuriating than form letters — think “silver medal paradox,” though the bronze winner part isn't as applicable

🏈 Trump Says He Will Sign Executive Order Giving Army-Navy Football Game an Exclusive TV Window

THR

It is not clear what the executive order will say, or what legal mechanism there is to enforce an exclusive broadcast window. FCC chairman Brendan Carr reposted Trump on Sunday, which is suggestive of the order being directed at his agency, which regulates broadcast TV stations.

So much for the free market. We already have state run media with Fox and CBS, might as well tell us what we can and can’t watch at this point.

💼 Personal Business

Are.na

My motivation throughout the ups and downs was not that Are.na would one day make me rich, it was that we had to keep Are.na alive because it, the service itself, was part of how I understood (and still understand) myself.

One of the best things I’ve read in awhile. Loved the Kinopio shout-out too. While not software, the sites I’ve been spinning up like this, Foofaraw, the upcoming Quotidian Bagatelle, and maybe one other come from a similar place of wanting to bootstrap the things I want to see in the world.

📰 The Nerve

The Nerve

We are a group of former Guardian and Observer journalists who think our turbulent times call for a different kind of media title: courageous, independent, diverse and built around a community of readers and journalists.

New independent, female-founded news site alert! They’ll be covering politics, culture, and tech. I’ll be curious to see how things split between UK/US coverage given they are based in the UK, but have covered things like Cambridge Analytica and Silicon Valley.

📺 ABC suspends ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ “indefinitely” over Charlie Kirk comments

THR

Kimmel’s original comments were as follows: “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”

This literally can’t be all he said, can it? That’s enough to suspend him? That’s more tame than anything the people on the right have said, accusing democrats and the trans community of Kirk’s death. So much for free speech and being against cancel culture. What a joke.
