@brian_gettler@mas.toListened to an unhinged interview with Québec MP (Lévis-Lotbinière) Jacques Gourde at noon. While criticizing the "wastefulness" and damage to farmers' lands that would be caused by the planned Toronto-Quebec City TGV (as obviously ordered by Poilievre), Gourde simultaneously touted the benefits of the staggering price tag of the troisième lien and claimed that pipelines - they ALWAYS leak, they're designed to dammit - don't pose any problem to agricultural lands.

@hikingdude@mastodon.socialJust listened to the #bergzeit #podcast about #mountainbiking. And I can identify myself as "uphill oriented cross country biker".
@StephenRees@mas.toToday we visited the Albert Hall - not the one in Kensington but in Nottingham, where I was granted my BA degree 56 years ago. We listened to the Binns organ played by Peter Siepmann. FANTASTIC!
The next recital is on Monday 29 June at 1.10pm - a rousing combination of organ and trumpet. I hope they get more people in the audience!

Only today I listened carefully to a Blackcap, thinking "There is a message in there that I just can't comprehend!"
@gwire@mastodon.socialListened to a podcast which contained an advert for a laptop read by a British female voice. Immediately followed by the exact same ad but read by American male voice.
I like to think I’m confounding the advertising algorithms and they’re getting desperate.

@Kingu@sakurajima.moeWhen I was young (like from 14-15 yo to 20) I listen almost exclusively to Prog rock.
But there was one band I could not stand: Yes.
As such, I have not listened to Yes ever since.
But this was 40 years ago.
So, right now, I am open for a second chance.
Tell me one Yes song to listen to. Only one.
@villavelius@mastodon.onlineMany articles in The Guardian (online version) can be listened to as well as read. Such a welcome feature for those of us with eyesight problems!

@carbonwoman@norden.socialI know its been a few days now but I could not wrap my head around it that Moya Brennan has passed. Listened to Clannad quite a bit these days #RIPMoyaBrennan
@jake4480@c.imAfter watching True Romance today I have Chantilly Lace stuck in my head, which is fine with me. I've listened to a lot of 'oldies' radio in my life (whatever that means) and it's such a weird banger of a song. Love it every damn time it comes on.

@bobmueller@mastodon.worldWhat’s My Favorite Audiobook?
I’ve only listened to one audiobook in my life—and I can’t even remember which one it was. A Clive Cussler novel, a stack of cassettes, and a lot of driving made for a surprisingly memorable (if fuzzy) experience.

@jake4480@c.imJust listened to Tom Petty's 'After Dark' (from 1982) fully for the first time, (I of course knew the song 'You Got Lucky') - but I get to the end, and the last song, 'A Wasted Life' had this melody that I couldn't place.. until I did. It's like, the EXACT same melody (and even NOTES, I just listened to them one after the other) as Vanity Faire's single 'Hitchin' a Ride' from 1969.
Through the years, Tom had different issues here and …

@markhburton@mstdn.socialI just listened to this dreadful piece of US propaganda. It was full of falsehoods from beginning to end.
I might have known, it was presented by David Aaronovitch. He invited a range of 'experts' including the BBC regional correspondent, married to a Cuban American, ideologues from the Economist and Chatham House.

@Cognessence@social.linux.pizzaHappy Bandcamp Friday, everyone! Please do support everyone's music as you're able. 🙏
I felt to release something in an opposite direction to the last few albums: 'Music from a Black Hole'. It has understandably received mixed responses when I play it to people, but takes me on an deep trip when listened to from beginning to end.

@Kingu@sakurajima.moeSometime I'm all happy to discover a new band and then #LastFM look at me like "Dude, WTF, you listened to them more than 30 times already..."
@Kingu@sakurajima.moeWhen I close Youtube Music to open the regular Youtube instead, I think it should be clear that I am now open to not just music but other shit as well like podcast or whatever.
I don't think it's ambiguous.
But somehow, the Youtube algorithm is like "Oh! He came to the regular youtube! Surely they want to listen to the exact same thing he just listened to but with another interface. I am so intelligent!"
@losttourist@social.chatty.monsterWell done. About time you listened. #TOTP
