The concept is wonderful. I do not trust Elon with that concept. I worry that many folks with high hopes of this helping them will just end up used and hurt.

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year (www.billboard.com)

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

I use Napster. I chose it way back when Spotify paid for the Rogan podcast, from a list of platforms that pay artists more. I’m not sure if that’s true any longer, but look it up! I’ve been really happy with their service. (And it’s really full circle for me, since I used their original service decades ago.)

ETA I can’t vouch for the accuracy of this site, but it says Napster is still one of the top-paying platforms. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/f8591cc1-6b36-4cb5-8885-02d757157fa6.png

According to that site, Napster pays more. Here’s the info on TIDAL:

It was apparently before the college campus protests. I wonder what he thinks about those. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/b018cfcb-701a-4db9-b2be-888688f5f354.png

Maybe we would finally get prison reform, then

I think you’re confusing a wealth tax with an income tax. They’re different. As for how these wealthy people pay, it’s not up to the government to figure out how someone pays their taxes. The onus is on the taxpayer.

Imagine this, but with a sample set that can’t be easily replicated and no one believes that you didn’t doctor them somehow. Not fun.

This is from The Nanny, but I don’t know the episode. Those are the two main characters, though Fran is in a blond wig for some reason. It was made in the 90s and not in black and white, so this must have been a strange episode.

Oh! I found it, or at least this clip: youtu.be/82NuUC8WBko?si=30zJLoRGSBjtAnN7

Orange. Pure orange, yellow orange, neon, burnt. Not so much red-orange, but I do love oranges that have a bit of a pink sheen, like padparadscha sapphires.

And you stuck to the main, very large highways instead of trying the smaller routes. I always wonder if the Waze era of travel has helped or hurt smaller communities.

Video killed the radio star. Still remember watching Nirvana’s Smells Like Teen Spirit ad nauseum.

Minneapolis should make public transit free for a few* months, to encourage folks to use that instead. Golden opportunity.

How about you just don’t make this kind of analogy in the year 2024?

Opposition concedes that Newsom likely to eke out a win on Proposition 1 in California (www.latimes.com)

Prop 1 would fund a $6.4 billion bond, of which $4.4 billion would go to sharply increasing the availability of substance abuse treatment, while the rest would build permanent supportive housing for unhoused folks. Half of that would go to housing for veterans with mental illness or addiction.

Prop 1 is just the first proposition on that ballot. It gets reused every time. It’s preferable to reference the actual title of the proposition, rather than just saying Prop 1.

Twelve FEET? Like, two six-foot- tall people standing on top of each other?? 🤯

“The government” doesn’t want to argue that. Some idiot politicians do.

Just wanted to tell you that I really enjoyed reading your take on Swift. Thanks for sharing. ☺️

Whoa, I haven’t seen that new guy. Gross. That doesn’t seem like a Nebula-type creator.

Thanks, I was wondering if Taylor Swift’s team won!

Do you have a source with numbers from before the pandemic? This site only includes numbers for the past four years, which have to have been increasing because immigration almost ground to a standstill in 2020-21. We need an accurate starting point in order to have this conversation.

Swift could easily be 6’5" in the right heals.
