11/24/2023 0 Comments Sources spotify joe roganRobert Malone, who had already been banned from Twitter for spreading COVID-19 misinformation, declared that people who trust vaccines are victims of “mass formation psychosis.” Soon rockstar Neil Young pulled his music from Spotify, quickly followed by singer Joni Mitchell, while author Brene Brown paused her popular podcast. The current controversy was kicked off a few weeks ago when more than 250 scientists and healthcare professionals wrote an open letter about Rogan’s podcast “promoting baseless conspiracy theories.” They were especially alarmed by a December podcast in which Dr. That’s not “censorship.” It’s fact checking. They’re simply asking it to publish standards and uphold them. It’s a straw man argument: nobody’s asking Spotify to be a censor, not even its harshest critics. What it doesn’t get to do is set rules and then pretend it isn’t responsible for enforcing them.Įk’s suggestion that moderating content would make Spotify a “censor” is especially egregious. Spotify, as a private company, gets to make its own rules, to make choices about what it allows and doesn’t on its own air. But the Constitution doesn’t give them the right to spout misinformation on any platform they choose. Joe Rogan and his guests have the right to believe and say anything they’d like, without fear of government reprisal. I’m as fierce a defender as you will find of freedom of speech. When you pay to acquire content, “you’re it.” You don’t get to have it both ways: you can’t both own it- and profit from it as Spotify does-yet not take responsibility for it. From my vantage point, the answer seems pretty clear. The answer has implications not just for Spotify but for other digital platforms that have begun paying some content creators, including Facebook, Snapchat and TikTok. The Rogan episode has thrown into high relief the question of whether it’s a “platform” that simply allows creators to spread content, or whether it is a media company, which has legal liability. When sources pushed falsehoods, our responsibility was to challenge them and to report the facts-not to hand them the microphone and turn up the volume. My role was always to ensure that the news we published was accurate and fair. We would be liable if we intentionally published false information. Anybody in my field would be out of a job if we knowingly published nonsense and then disavowed any responsibility for it. A key difference is that Facebook's and YouTube's challenge is policing content at unprecedented scale Spotify, however, is searching for a position of neutrality after investing $100 million to license a podcaster already known for courting controversy.I’ve spent my career in publishing, including as editor in chief of USA Today. The latest controversy over Rogan throws Spotify into a dilemma thatĪnd other internet giants have struggled to manage: walking the tightrope between freedom of expression and effective moderation of the most objectionable content on their platforms. That dollar amount matched the value of Spotify's 2020 licensing deal with Rogan, which made his podcast a Spotify exclusive. The memo was reported earlier by The Verge.Įk went on to say that Spotify plans to invest $100 million in artists, songwriters and podcasters from "historically marginalized groups," promising the funds would be spent on developing, licensing and marketing those creators. "Some of Joe Rogan's comments incredibly hurtful - I want to make clear that they do not represent the values of this company," Ek wrote in a memo to employees, which provided Monday by a company spokeswoman.

But that might be a problematic term when it’s used for someone like Santos, Hart said. “Pathological liar” is the label that seems to stick. “They’re mostly interested in slapping a label on George Santos,” Hart said. He’s been interviewed by the Washington Post and Politico. Recently he has appeared, often with Curtis, on CNN, Fox News, and CBS. Over the past two months, I’ve done thirty,” Hart told. It’s suddenly a hot topic thanks, in part, to the confirmed revelations that Santos spun substantial swaths of his resume from whole cloth, and told copious untruths about virtually everything in his background during his successful bid to win the congressional seat for Long Island, New York.īefore the Santos story broke, “I’d get about two requests a year for interviews.

He said he has heard a few good George Santos jokes in the past few months. Hart of Texas Woman’s University in Denton, Texas chuckled at this. The headline of the cheeky, comic book-style ad (drawn by Barry Blitt), purports to be hawking Santos’ online “Fibinars,” in which liars can learn how to free themselves “from the tyranny of the truth.” Recently, The New Yorker published a cartoon depicting George Santos in a mock advertisement for a service aimed at an audience that, most Americans would agree, the first-term Congressman from New York has admitted he is well-qualified to address.ĭo you feel like the gatekeeping elites are preventing you from lying?

Why precisely Australian games are going big internationally is difficult to determine, Wilton says, though he ascribes some of it to “weird ideas” born from smaller team sizes. “One of the great things about digital releases is we can sell our games all over the world, so it’d be a waste not to leverage that.” Tim Dawson, one of the Brisbane-based developers behind last year’s hit Unpacking, says: “Given the relative population size, I think aiming for the international market is inevitable.”Ī room from Unpacking, a video game by Brisbane-based Witch Beam. “Australia’s a really small segment of the market,” Wilton says, “so having publishers is really quite useful for Australian developers.” They received $40,000 in funding from VicScreen and Creative Victoria to polish a demo to the point where they could pitch it to their publisher, Devolver Digital. Like many Australian game developers, the Massive Monster team credit the state’s investment in the industry for helping them achieve international success. “I think having that community of developers that are on a similar level to you is great inspiration you can talk shop, compare contacts, they can help you out, you can help them out. “There’s such a creative energy, there’s so many cool studios,” Wilton says.

In 2016, the Supreme Court ruled against Abigail Fisher, a white student who said the University of Texas denied her admission because of her race. About 70% of non-Hispanic white women somewhat or strongly oppose affirmative action, according to a 2014 Cooperative Congressional Election Study. Half of Americans do not approve of colleges and universities considering race in admissions, according to a recent Pew Research Center report. A majority of white adults disapprove of it, too. If white women benefit from affirmative action, why do they oppose it? Why do most white women oppose affirmative action? In the past six decades, women have leapfrogged men in earning four-year degrees while Black and Latino students are still underrepresented in college admissions and graduation rates, especially in four-year colleges.Ī similar trend has been seen in the workplace, according to a USA TODAY analysis of named executives at the nation's 100 largest companies.įrom 2020 to 2022, white women expanded their share of senior leadership jobs at twice the rate of women of color, though women remained outnumbered 4 to 1. Despite marginal gains among men of color, white men still hold about two-thirds of the top jobs even though they account for just one-third of U.S. Those are the kinds of things that indicate that on a structural level that white women have benefited.” What does affirmative action data show? “You can make the same analysis when we look at employment. “When we talk about institutions like higher education, we see that women in general are on par with men, but we have severe underrepresentation of Black, Indigenous and Latinx folks in colleges and universities and even greater disparities for women of color,” Texas A&M sociologist and lawyer Wendy Leo Moore told USA TODAY. How have white women benefited from affirmative action?ĭiscussions about affirmative action tend to focus on race, but statistics show that it also has been an equalizer for white women in education and in the workplace.Ī Labor Department report in 1995 found that since the 1960s, affirmative action had helped 5 million members of minority groups and 6 million women move up in the workplace. The term was originally meant to convey that the government should act affirmatively to end race and gender discrimination. But critics have equated affirmative action with racial quotas and preferences that they say give unfair advantages to people of color and discriminate against white people. Kennedy was the first president to use the term to mean advancing racial equality. What is affirmative action?Īffirmative action refers to efforts to curb discrimination in education, employment and government contracting.Īffirmative action was first used in 1935 in the Wagner Act, a federal law that gave workers the right to start and join unions. Legal observers say that decision will have huge consequences for higher education and could have significant ripple effects for corporate diversity programs. The Supreme Court on Thursday struck down affirmative action admissions policies used by Harvard College and the University of North Carolina to build diversity on their campuses. White women have also made inroads into corporate leadership that people of color and women of color have not. White women today are more educated and make up a bigger slice of the workforce as a result of decades of affirmative action policies, scholars say. But scholars say the greatest beneficiaries of affirmative action policies are white women, from college campuses to the American workplace. People often associate affirmative action with efforts to end discrimination for people of color. 11/24/2023 0 Comments Harmony korine favorite filmsMaking it about everyone in the town took away from their narratives and character development. There isn’t a real focus with it, which contributed to the problem of lack of focus.Ĭons: Lack of focus – I wish it had just focused on the core groups. I wish the uglyness had been more raw or stylized throughout. The Cinematography – There were some great moments of cinemography and some bad moments. So it isn’t really at that strong overall. The music that is played in certain scenes gets the job done. Okay: the Music – This film would have almost worked better without music or a soundtrack. Pretty much summing up the stories of the victims in the town (molestation(a few characters), lonliness (most if not all), repressed sexuality (a gay relationship that isn’t able to happen because of gay dwarf in denial) throughout the film. You get the feeling the cats represent some level of innocence as the girls, who are the only real kind people in the film have a pet cat, the rest are prayed upon by the boys. The Cats – So many cats were poached, mostly by Tummler and Solomon, but also their rival who is caring for his grandmother on life support. The movie is bleak and dark, but the relationships are strong. The sisters also have a great relationship as they look out for each other after one goes through breast surgery because of cancer and fighting off a molester who says he found their cat. The Relationships – Tummler and his dad, you see how his dad feels desperate but still cares for his son as best he can…same with Solomon and his mother who just wants him to smile again. We see Tummler drinking and arm wresting his dad and Tummler’s carrying for Solomon contrasted with him having sex with a down syndrome girl who is being pimped out by her brother, and getting high off glue. The characters – The characters are human, which should be a given in a film but with so much bad writing and/or acting it is hard to really capture this sometimes. You get the trauma and the caring which leads into Bunny Boy on the overpass and later getting “killed” by two hooligan kids who mock him for his pink ears. Solomon is the narrator and he tells about how the tornado destroyed everything and how people’s bones were sticking of their bodies and how he saw up a girls skirt when she got pulled away, also how one death was funny. The Introduction – The introduction captures the bleakness of the picture. One of the biggest scenes of this is happy music being played while Bunny Boy (the character in the poster) making out with the sisters, while the Tummler and Solomon kill their cat that they’d been looking for, and later the tornado and a character with special needs singing a song about how Jesus loves her right after Bunny Boy brings the dead cat to the camera. Most moments of joy are contrasted by the destruction being wrought. There is no joy in this film and that is kind of the point. The Pros: The Tone – The tone is great in this. The story revolves around a few characters, the key ones being Bunny Boy, Solomon, Tummler and the sisters and their stories of dealing with the desolation and the self destruction inflicted on themselves and around them. The story takes place in Xenia, Ohio sometimes after a tornado destroys the town. “Gummo” was written and directed by Harmony Korine and produced by Cary Woods, Scott Macaulay and Robin O’Hara. I’ll go into more of what I mean in the assessment. The feel and tone of the film never change and the characters are human. Suffice to say, it definitely impressed me. “Gummo” was a film that a friend recommended and let me borrow. 11/24/2023 0 Comments Anytime mailbox complaintsYou should review your particular circumstances with your independent legal and tax advisors.

IMO The mid six and outlier are chalk & cheese- you just gotta go with the one that suits your surfing style. Never ridden the Moe but from what I gather the Moe is Harley's average wave midlength. Do they trim - kinda but nothing like the outlier, and yeah they are very back foot orientated. The 7-oh is the high performance midlength and 7'10 is the step up. The mid six is designed to be a high performance mid length- look at how harley ingleby surfs them with his quad set up. I am super keen on any other comparisons you can draw.Ĭlick to expand.Hi mate, I had a 7"10 mid six and now have a 7"6 outlier- two completely different boards. * Looking at the outline from above, at least visually in comparison to the Moe and the Outlier, the Mid 6 looks to me like a blown up performance shortboard. *Do either the Mid 6 or the Moe trim nicely when standing further up the board? Which one do you think is better at trimming (I am guessing the Moe)? Is one a faster trimmer than the other? Is that because both boards work best from the tail? * All the videos I have seen of the Mid 6 and the Moe show Harley (or the other surfers) riding them 99% of the time from the tail. I have made a few purchase mistakes over the years and am hoping to avoid another mistake. Some boards I currently own, including my current 7'0", work primarily from the tail so I am looking to (gradually) upgrade to more high speed trim centric (or at least trim friendly) boards. I understand that the Outlier has great forward trim speed and will ask some Outlier specific questions in my next post as I think it ticks a number of boxes for me. I guess it comes from my longboard and retro fish riding style and it's so smile inducing for me that it should really be one of the first parameters I consider when looking for new boards - along with paddle power. One of my favourite things to do is high speed trimming (aka racing the face, wave allowing) when standing forward of centre on the board. I used to, and occasionally still do, surf old school style, high volume 6'ish fishes and 'alternate' shapes. can I please ask you some questions about the Mid 6 and Moe from your riding and ownership experience?īackground: I primarily ride a 9'0" longboard or a 7'0" Simmons inspired mid length. I can't think of a better person to ask given you own all 3. thanks so much.Īmong other boards including the Outlier, I am considering the 7'0" Mid 6 and the 7'2" Moe. Wow what a quiver! My local shop only has a Moe so to see all 3 boards that I am considering photographed next to each other is a really big help. Do people typically use a longer centre fin in the Outlier to help with turning and/or hold? It sounds like a different equation may apply to the Outlier? * Years ago I learned the general rule of thumb of one foot of board for one inch of fin for single fin boards (eg for a 9 foot board, run a 9 inch fin) and for 2+1 roughly the sum in inches of the centre fin plus the sidebite heights would equal the board length (though I tend to probably add an inch in the 2+1 scenario). Is your backfoot positioning on the Outlier naturally farther up the board so it doesn't matter? Does this cause the legrope to get in the way at all when turning from the tail or at any other times? * The leg rope string looks to be quite far from the tail imho (compared to many other boards). * How's the paddle onto waves (like for like with a similar sized board)? * What's your size Outlier like to turn from the tail? * From the videos I have seen it looks like the Outlier is excellent at high speed trimming (aka racing the face, wave allowing) when standing forward of centre on the board - do Outlier owners agree? Either sized Outlier could handle one of those roles really well from the sounds of it though I am probably leaning more towards the Outlier 7'0" 2+1. I am contemplating a few different board combinations (an 8'ish longboard alternative for easier traveling and when too big locally for my 9 footer plus also a 7'ish mid length). It looks like such a fun board in the CJ videos that I have seen (I think I have scoured the net for all of them). I really like the sound of the Outlier and am doing some due diligence here. |
