“Violence has no place in America” has to be one of the biggest lies US politicians reflexively spout. Not only does violence have a prominent position in American society, it's a fcking religion here. And you platitudinous shitbags do fuck all to solve the problem.

I have just discovered that Pussy Galore's albums Right Now!, Dial "M" For Motherfucker, and Sugarshit Sharp are on Qobuz. They are not on Spotify or Tidal. Advantage: Qobuz.

"Trump is a fucking idiot who gets rolled by anyone who's nice to him" theory remains undefeated, putting someone like Mamdani in there is like having Randy Johnson sub in for a 5th grade Little League game
Q: Stefanik has called Mamdani a 'jihadist.' Do you think you're standing next to a jihadist right now?

TRUMP: No, I don't. I met with a man who's a very rational person

Really cool Joseph Byrd piece from the early '60s that sounds as if it came out this year on Room40 or Black Truffle or something.

If you like Fifty Foot Hose's Cauldron, you'll probably dig Spoils Of War's The Spoils Of War. Psych-rock with mad electronics/musique concrète tactics. Sometimes I think that "Now Is Made In America" is the best song ever.

a new study finds that there is enough microplastic in your nads to make a little army guy. whats worse is that its the guy with the radio so he doesnt even have a gun. and he has a bunch of extra plastic along the seam on the bottom so he keeps falling over.
