I just posted a new short sketch of a story on my site. This one’s a short conversation at last call, between an average guy and another average guy who has the head of a bald eagle. If you check it out I’d love to know what you think. mattdobson.com/last-drink-bir…

I’m starting off the new year with a new take on my personal site mattdobson.com. I’m hoping to put more into what I’m putting out there. I’m going to be sharing writing – fiction, essays, rants, whatever. I’ve got one short story up now. More soon.

Today, we have more ways to connect than ever. Yet rates of loneliness have doubled since the 1980s. s.hbr.org/3NWkQ2d

Why does @WFPK give any air time to Top 40 pop music that saturates every other station? That time and exposure could be given to an emerging or local artist. You can hear Olivia Rodrigo anywhere, she doesn’t need extra support. @wfpkmamabear @StudioWfpk8598 @kylemeredith

Dear @midjourney You’re killing me. Your model has been using my work+name for over 10k times, and that’s just the public forums. Can you remove my work and block my name from your generator? I’m sure you understand how deeply unethical this situation is. please rt

I HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN!


Is it safe to assume the state legislature has deliberately neglected school transportation…so that they can point to its failure when it is under resourced? So…that they can suggest reform through privatization?

Important to know that paying the full costs of busing kids to & from school is a state responsibility under law. But it's one the legislature has skipped since 2005. Despite billions now in the rainy day fund, the state still pays only 70% of these costs in the current budget.

This effort exploring ‘fixing’ the merger is clearly aimed at separating Louisville between city and suburb, by race, and economic class. This and the call for splitting up JCPS are a two prongs of a coordinated effort to divide and (re)segregate Louisville.

If you live in and care about Louisville you should be paying attention to this.
