I wrote about the new Muppet Show, which is, thank God, exactly like the old Muppet Show.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Trip Thru The Collection, Day 126: Dead Or Alive, Youthquake. My DOA week begins with this stomper, a set inspired by Divine, punk, and genderf#@k. Everyone knows the hits, but deep cuts like "Big Daddy Of The Rhythm" are also superb. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords #musicsky #vinyl

Trip Thru The Collection, Day 125: Deacon Blue, Bacharach & David. Just an EP, but what a smash -- dominating the charts everywhere but America. Their take on "The Look Of Love" remains my favorite to this day, heartsick and rueful. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords #musicsky #vinyl

I just rewatched William Wyler's Detective Story--it's based on a 1949 Sidney Kingsley play that ran for 15 months on Broadway with, insanely, a cast of 34. NY really needs an Encores series devoted to unrevivable plays, which this is, even though it basically invented the police-precinct TV drama.

Where did these Epstein folks find the time to do anything given the volume of their emailing? It’s almost parodic how much they liked to chat about crimes in their dumb emails.

Trip Thru The Collection, Day 124: Deacon Blue, Fellow Hoodlums. Less consistent but oddly more rewarding than their other LPs, this set has one of my favorite songs of all time, "Your Swaying Arms," a poignant memoir of past love. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords #musicsky #vinyl

Don't believe them. They are not drawing down or scaling back. Only constant political pressure, on the streets and on members of Congress, and crushing pain at the ballot box, will get ICE to stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/30/u...

The Trump Administration is obsessed with protecting pedophiles.

After failing to comply with the subpoena and withholding over 50% of the Epstein files, the Trump DOJ just removed parts of the Epstein files that include mention of Donald Trump.

When this era is over can we all agree to just leave trans people the fuck alone? Like forever.

Trip Thru The Collection, Day 123: Deacon Blue, When The World Knows Your Name. Back in the day, my undergraduate angst found a home in "Real Gone Kid," "Wages Day" and "Fergus Sings The Blues." Smart, evolved pop-rock. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords #vinyloftheday #vinyl

UVA Center for Politics has moved Sen. Jon Ossoff’s (D-GA) reelection race from Toss-Up to Leans Democrat.

They cite Trump’s sinking approval ratings, especially among young and non-white voters, as the main reason for improving Ossoff’s odds for reelection.

Trip Thru The Collection, Day 122: Deacon Blue, Raintown. Glasgow's pop balladeers take a hard, loving look at their hometown. "Dignity" is one of the best songs ever written, IMO; "Orphans" lovingly echoes both Costello and Gabriel. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords #musicsky #vinyl

Recent Additions, Day 121: Book Of Love, Lullaby. Melodic synth artpop was so utterly fab (Human League, Ultravox, etc.), but with B.O.L, it was also...so dramatic! Rarely was the 90's dancefloor so seductively baroque.

Recent Additions, Day 120: Toni Braxton. Maybe the best R&B vocalist of the 90's? This glorious reissue of her debut LP, which won 3 Grammy Awards and had 5 top ten singles, is like a rejuvenating spa for your ears.

If Stephen Miller is still in the White House, that means the white nationalist gameplan is still all systems GO.

What we're witnessing is just window dressing and distractions.

Tom Homan is just as bad as Bovino, but less openly Nazi.

Keep your eyes wide open.

"This is a moral obscenity."
Donald Trump took money that reduced what working Americans pay for health care to prop up a reckless immigration force.

I will not support another dollar for an out-of-control ICE and DHS.

Trip Thru The Collection Day 119: Sammy Davis Jr. At Town Hall. My favorite Rat Packer; hearing Sammy live really reveals what a magnificent talent he was. He disarms the audience so quickly...they're in love by the second song. #nowspinning #nowplaying #vinylsky #vinylrecords #vinyloftheday #vinyl

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

Recent Additions, Day 188: Toni Braxton, Secrets. The first ever reissue, released this week. After decades of being the rarest of rare vinyls, I'm so glad it's here at long last. Toni's voice is a national treasure...
