Is anyone plugged in to what exactly is going on with Anna’s Archive?

A month or so ago, I had a good laugh at their kettleblack opus of litigation.

🔗 4️⃣ 👉 💭 , friend:
https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/files/2026/01/Annas-Archive.pdf

It alleges in its opening salvo that the action is a response to "…the brazen theft of millions of files containing nearly all of the world’s commercial sound recordings by a group of anonymous Internet pirates with no
regard for the law". It alleges they are stealing and profiting from metadata … oh boy, pic related. Look in the mirror ye mighty and despair! (Fellow residents of Merveilles, fear not! you know any time you come to this wonderful hamlet, you won’t see any items being added to that privacy report! Just another reason that MTown is the happiest hood on hEarth…!)

There is so much to marvel at in this 26 page kettleblack opus, but I gotta say, the capitalization of "Internet" is quite amusing. This isn’t Deutschland, und unser nouns are nicht required to be großgeschrieben. (German cleaning lady is off duty and I haven’t spoken it in 20 years…) But, here’s what I always say!

Größere Wörter, größere Probleme, meine Internetenhausekindern!

(Note: Always may actually mean “never” in some contexts. Sue me.)

I last visited one of the mirrors (.li) 7 days ago but … it seems the mighty musical mire of make-believe moguls who “live” in Delaware have all successfully taken down them all - at least as far as I can tell!

Here’s my go to source for academic archives and their server’s status:

https://vertsluisants.fr/index.php?article4/where-scihub-libgen-server-down

My duckduckgo’s have returned nothing in the way of info - so if anyone is aware of if the group has a contribution page / chat or channel of some kind - I wanna know it, as AA and other sites that carry on holding the doors to academia open for the rest of us, need to be encouraged to continue.

Suing them just has made me go from an agreement of moral alignment to actively looking to fund the public release of “paywalled knowledge”.

Build community and a sense of belonging in your classrooms with North Putnam!

“I have been teaching in small liberal arts colleges for over 15 years now, and in the past five years, it’s as though someone flipped a switch. For most of my career, I assigned around 30 pages of reading per class meeting as a baseline expectation… Now students are intimidated by anything over 10 pages and seem to walk away from readings of as little as 20 pages with no real understanding.“ #literacy #education #LanguageArts

Last call for any #languagearts teachers who want their students to hone their writing skills. On Tuesday, Nov. 7, I'm teaching a free virtual session on how to turn picture prompts into stories.

Yes, "Military Intelligence" is the classic oxymoron. But I just read the first page of the Trump indictment and it refers to "The United States Intelligence Community". What is that? Like, oxymoronissimo or something? #trumpindictment #intelligence #languagearts #oxymoronissimo

It is time to write this again. The *Five Paragraph Essay* saved my life.

While roundly hated by "true lovers of the written word," as a student who struggled with #LanguageArts, the #5PE let me break the daunting task of 1500 words into a task that could be taken one part at a time; one sentence at a time. It let me use the problem solving skills that made me successful on math and science to tackle academic writing. Most importantly it was good enough to get a C or better whenever I applied it and kept me from failing out of first high school then college. The grades were not stellar but sometimes C is for complete and even D can be for Done with that s**t.

If you are a hater of the 5PE, my challenge for you is to name an alternate tool that a poor writer - esp a poor writer with diagnosed cognitive challenges - a way to break a huge writing task down into bite sized pieces, very small bite sized pieces.

The greatest irony of this delightful Times' piece on #ChatGPT and what it means for the future of #LanguageArts instruction is that every commenter complaining about how technology like this impedes on young people's ability--and therefore drive--to communicate effectively ignores the technology enabling those very (digital) lamentations.

Somehow, not using pencil and paper, they were able to clarify their thoughts and feelings and share them with the world.

I've only just remembered that, growing up in Massachusetts, our English classes were called "language arts." I've been thinking about whether, as a fiction writer, I'm in the arts, and this reminds me that I am, at least for a few hours in the morning.
