As Trump and his allies in Congress try to gut public funding for PBS, watch this 1971 clip of Rev. Jesse Jackson and the kids of Sesame Street.

This is why we need public broadcasting.

Here's a trippy thing for you: The 180Gs' a cappella cover of Cardiacs' "Junior is a Jitterbug" from their "Guns" album.
The Gs are currently hard at work covering this entire album, but it'll be a while. These are NOT easy songs (but they are soooo worth it).

a special shoutout to everyone who "works with computers" and therefore is required to fix the electronics of their entire extended family over the holidays

When the clock strikes midnight on January 1, creative works from 1929 & sound recordings from 1924 will enter the public domain in the US, like:

⚓️ Popeye
🕵️ The Maltese Falcon
📖 The Sound and the Fury
🇮🇹 A Farewell to Arms
🏠️ A Room of One's Own
🙌 Hallelujah
🎺 Bolero
and many more!

I have always loved public libraries, but having young children has exponentially increased my gratitude and sense of indebtedness to them. Our local library is such a huge part of our lives. The books, the programming, the very intentionally curated kids’ section. It’s all such a gift.

While I settle in to Bluesky I’m just posting some pics. Bushy Park a few months ago.

They love me at my local Post Office… down to the last 7 or 8 copies of Framed but still plenty of other books left at seanphillips.bigcartel.com

Just opened a calzone restaurant. Used to have a pizza restaurant, but it folded.

I found this helpful. It's a searchable list of starter packs.
