The platform: more clicks, less schtick!

  • Researchers attempt to encourage breeding in captive sharks by playing them music. Justin Timberlake turns them on; Britney Spears, not so much. (Towleroad)

  • Courtney Love says crazy stuff on her MySpace page! I know, can you believe it? This time it’s about, er, cupcakes. (Defamer)

  • Idolator offers the first installment of its Top 100 Greatest R&B Songs Ever, complete with videos. Hey look: “Oh Sheila!” (Idolator)

  • I know I just posted a link to an Alan McGee rant, but he’s just so adorably ornery! This week: bands that were over-hyped. (UK Guardian Music Blog)

    DEMOCRACY DOES NOT EXIST...

    without free and fair elections, a vigorous free press, and engaged citizens to reclaim power from those who abuse it.

    In this election year unlike any other—against a backdrop of a pandemic, an economic crisis, racial reckoning, and so much daily crazy—Mother Jones' journalism is driven by one simple question: Will America move closer to, or further from, justice and equity in the years to come?

    If you're able to, please join us in this mission with a donation today. Our reporting right now is focused on voting rights and election security, corruption, disinformation, racial and gender equity, and the climate crisis. We can’t do it without the support of readers like you, and we need to give it everything we've got between now and November. Thank you.
