What to Hear: NPR usually does a great job covering the music scene at SXSW. This year, they’re getting attendees (and non-attendees) prepared in advance with a playlist of 100 great songs by artists performing at SXSW 2018.

+ What to Watch: Too busy bingeing Netflix shows to get around to actually going to any of the movies competing for this year’s Oscars? Well, you can catch up on a lot of them without leaving the couch. From the NYT: Where to Stream the Nominated Movies.

+ What to Read: If you missed it yesterday, I published a piece in the excellent McSweeney’s: I’m a Proud Second Amendment-Loving, Law-Abiding American. And I’m Giving Up My F-22 Raptor Fighter Jet.
