Hilariously, I told Vance to jump in a cement pond on X and they shut me down for a day. 🤣

Probably a while ago. I always thought it depended on what people's settings were, but I guess not. Lots of my stuff doesn't have the label - what triggers it, apart from T R A N S, is a mystery.

Excellent Live lip synched performance, from European TV circa 1966. Check out Keith's drumming at about 2:13.

Happy Sunday🌟

This is the reality for Ukrainians right now -people are setting up tents right inside their apartments just to keep themselves&their pets a little warmer.

Russia continues its brutal genocide by every possible means, but Ukrainians are resourceful and will endure no matter what

One small thing I hope comes out of this nightmare is at least renaming the Department of Homeland Security. “Homeland” is not a word Americans use. It sounds like a translation from Heimatsicherheitsabteilung.

aside from this awful person who has the energy of zombie roadkill, imagine saying this about Minneapolis. Lots of things I associate with Minneapolis. Prince, the Twins, lo-fi social democracy, city closest to Hibbing. AKs in the car windows and gangland murder & rioting just isn't one of them.
Kristi Noem: "When we did these operations in other cities across the country, we didn't see this kind of violence. We didn't see organized, funded protesters come in to conduct acts of violence against our law enforcement officers like we're seeing in Minneapolis."

Become an ICE Agent! Apply now! Must be confident, vaguely authoritative, and skilled at explaining nothing while making everyone panic. Parody? Allegedly.

National media: Please stop describing what’s happening in Minneapolis as “protests.” There has been a modest, sustained protest outside the Whipple federal building, about 10 miles from downtown, but... 1/3

“Acting President” of Venezuela. Threatening more tariff costs on Americans to seize Greenland. Underwater on domestic issues. “Retribution” admitted at DOJ. Energy policies upside down. Whether or not he had a stroke, are we sure this man is mentally competent?
