My first blog post on Diff in a long while. Probably most interesting to people interested in #WikimediaCommons and/or #PublicDomain. https://diff.wikimedia.org/2025/07/31/introducing-commonsdb/

A reminder that the recently late Tom Lehrer relinquished his copyrights in his works and performances. Further than that, he had a website made where you can download lyrics, sheet music and mp3s, to make it easy to perform, reuse and remix his work.
IT'S OFFICIALLY TOM LEHRER DAY
ON MASTODON.
POST YOUR FAVES.
(He put them all in the public domain in 2020).
RIP Tom Lehrer.

I was a big fan as a kid growing up and memorized all his songs, including The Elements. I'd forgotten about him as an adult until 2020 when he crossed my radar again, and revived my respect, by giving up his copyrights and donating his music and lyrics to the public domain. Bravo.
