the "Spotify artist network" tool is no longer working, since Spotify has restricted access to the "related artists" API endpoint (without warning, lots of unhappy devs); I am trying to get access again, but I'm not very optimistic

having our students bulldozed away, beaten, and arrested in the name of 'security' after not even 12 hrs of occupying a small piece of park space is not my understanding of how we should handle protests @UvA_Amsterdam at5.nl/artikelen/226520/live…
