    This week we see #Red

    Beth Orton, “Blood Red River” from Central Reservation (1999)

    #BethOrton's voice glides over spare acoustic guitar like glistening sugar frosting. The lyrics are wistful and aching but I experience her voice more as an instrument, coloring words with her astonishing tone and timbre.

    Here she performs this track live on the great #PBS music performance series “Sessions at West 57th.”

  4. “The real problem is there is no safe place…” A look at what happens to #NYC when (not if) the next ‘perfect storm’ hits the city. 25% under water, entire boroughs flooded, citizens trapped…lives will be lost. #PBS Terra covers the story and takes a look at mitigation strategies - all of which are predicated on older, no longer accurate models. This is not just a #NewYork problem. #GlobalWarming and the consequent #SeaLevel rise will threaten low-lying coastal areas everywhere - and we’re not ready. Maybe, just maybe, our government could be focusing on the imminent #ClimateCrisis instead of fighting unwelcome wars for Israel, planning ballrooms and triumphal arches, while rolling back alternative energy projects and undermining scientific research and reporting. IDK, that just seems like the logical and rational thing to do🤔 #ClimateChange #ClimateEmergency #GlobalWarming

  10. #PBS #NPR - On Thursday, June 4, local public media stations, partners, and advocates are uniting for Protect My Public Media Day, a national moment to protect the future of local, noncommercial service.

    This year’s theme, Locally Rooted. Rising Together., reflects the spirit of the day: locally grounded service, collective action, and shared commitment to protecting the future of local public media stations.

    Here’s how you can help on June 4:
    Take action: Contact your Members of Congress and urge them to restore federal funding for local public media stations.
    Share your story: Record a short video message or submit a brief testimonial about what your local public media station means to you, how it has shaped your life or how it strengthens your community.
    Spread the word: Post on social media and encourage others to rise in support of their local public media stations. #PublicMedia #PublicBroadcasting

  11. Restoring 12GB LXC from remote storage on #hetzner is taking forever. 2 hours already and still running. It's a #VPS with a Storage Box attached.

    I started to think about local #ProxmoxBackupServer with weekly sync to remote. And for this, I'm planning to buy a #DAS and the cheapest #miniPC with USB Type-C possible.

    Wow - the video in the previous post's article 👀😱

    No wonder Trump et al. acted to defund #NPR & #PBS.

    #ICYMI - A federal judge ruled earlier this year that #Trump's order violated the 1st Amendment & issued a permanent injunction that executive branch agencies can't enforce it.

    Sadly, though, the damage was already done as Congress rescinded the entire #CPB budget for 2026 & 2027, and the CPB "voted to dissolve itself" in Jan 2026 😔

  21. Anyone know where Ariel Waldman sources these shirt dresses she wears on PBS' Life Unearthed?

  22. PBS: I highly recommend a fairly new #television program on #PBS titled #CompassPoints. It takes a close look at international issues. Most recently the host, who earlier was a foreign correspondent for ABC News, examined Putin and Russia. An even earlier episode focused on Israel, especially its use of its military. Another episode was about the #IranWar.

  23. Civics Lessons

    PBS hosts "Civics Nations" a contest where American high schools compete to who best knows the trivia of American civics.

    I am a critic of this system.

    The trivia does little to convince future blue-collar workers that American democracy is working for them.

  28. The Mood & State Of European TV Detectives - Mapped

    H/T @Alasdair Beckett-King
    I do love my European detective shows – Salvo Montalbano in Sicily, Kurt Wallander in Sweden, Saga Norén & Martin Rohde in Denmark AND Sweden, ‘Piet’ Van der Valk in Amsterdam, Endeavour Morse in Oxford, Jules Maigret in Paris, Geordie Keating and a revolving Anglician vicar in Cambridge & surrounds, and many more
    I have been lucky enough to visit Ragusa & Punta Secca, Amsterdam, and Oxford – but still need to get to the Scandiwegian locations, Paris & Cambridge…
