I’d rather be talking about music, but because the vile MAGA fascists are taking power, I’m here to talk about that too.
If you’re trying to sell me something - crypto, exotic mushroom concoctions, whatever - don’t bother.
What’s your “ how can one album have so many bangers?” album?

The 14th Amendment doesn’t mince words — birthright citizenship is a constitutionally protected right.

We’re fighting at the Supreme Court against President Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship.

Wow! The Supreme Court basically just said, if you want to do racial gerrymandering, have at it.

Let’s be clear, what Texas did was racial gerrymandering, plain and simple. SCOTUS just opened the floodgates.

The Beatles - The End

Paul McCartney, one of the soloists here (along with John and George), is famously left-handed.

Robin Lane & the Chartbusters - Kathy Lee

When I see Janis Joplin, I can’t help but think of a hard-living, vibrant woman gone too soon.

The normalization of this madness is so quick that we’re debating whether a second illegal strike was wrong after an initial illegal strike with no proof of any crime and we’ve already seen just random murders of fishermen normalized with the excuse they’re running drugs, which isn’t legal either.
