39(!) years ago my old band #Nomeansno recorded the LP Sex Mad. After being out of print for years, it got re-released yesterday on @alternativetent.bsky.social
For fun (and partly to test my muscle memory) I decided to play along with my younger self on Obsessed, the 3rd song on Sex Mad. Enjoy!

Informateur Wijers is weggewerkt door de borrelclub-elite. Wel heel toevallig dat die club per se de VVD in het kabinet wil hebben.

Okay. So, who do I write to demand a second season of one of my all-time favourites, the crimally underrated Behind Every Star (2022)? Is this too much to ask? I think not. SO much fun, with an knock-out cast and hilarious guest roles! (Ep02 especially)

i’m at the brooklyn training. amazing energy.
@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.
This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

Back in 1973, when I was 10, I heard Green Onions for the first time. Still love it. Coolest song ever written. One of the few "classics" I quite simply never tire hearing.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been disliked by the left for years and years and had never had to fear for her life. She's been disliked by the right for 1 day and now has to hire security.

An absolutely devastating and massive blow to political coverage nationwide. @leximcmenamin.com has been doing work nobody else has, just truly leading on so many stories.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Old Leonard doesn't seem too pleased about this situation.
And yes, as you can see, Rubber Soul was indeed inside. However, its dire condition dampened any temporary enthusiasm I may have had. (The fact it was in mono was kind of cool, though...)
