For those in the Buffalo, NY area, I'll be playing an all-ages show on Saturday, December 13 at Allen Street Hardware. Four other bands on the bill, 45-minute sets apiece. Music starts at 4 PM. I go on at 6 PM, backed by a full band. $10 at the door.

Peaceful and patriotic showing in Buffalo, NY today! (I tried to blur any visible faces.) #NoKings #Buffalo

Edgar Winter Group's "Frankenstein" is the himbo version of "Peaches en Regalia."

Move fast. Break things. Witness the dire consequences of your imprudence escalate.

Really loved this music memoir by @nikostratis.com. Excellent mix of music nerdom and heartfelt storytelling. My copy even came with a cozy for my sugar-free RC Cola. 💜

I've called my reps on this. Please do the same. We must be able to regulate.

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods…

I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

When lawmakers take action against fascism and lawlessness, it rocks. More, please.

Foggy day in Buffalo, but we were there making noise! Still calling my reps and making noise that way, too! #Buffalo #handsoff

The fact that billionaires still want more money is proof that wealth will not fulfill you.

The fact that they are willing to inflict suffering on others in order to get more money is an indication that wealth may be a red flag.

Excellent turnout in Buffalo, NY!

Or in the words of the prophet Juliana Hatfield, "A heart that hurts is a heart that works."
In a world that asked us to be cruel and to close off our heart remember that it’s a good thing to have a heart that can still break.

Everything's been so terrible, but tonight this here reminded me why I love this place. The song, the performance, the recording - all so damn wonderful.

From @nkjemisin.bsky.social's "The Ones Who Stay and Fight":

"[...] a city whose inhabitants, simply, care for one another. That is a city's purpose [...] not merely to generate revenue or energy or products, but to shelter and nurture the people who do these things."

Adults ought to be responsible, for themselves and for others. They ought to be patient, thoughtful, reasonable, curious, cooperative, and empathetic.

At the core of our problem, in our leadership and our electorate, is a lack of emotional maturity, an unwillingness or inability to be an adult.

I haven't set foot in Target since they rolled back their DEI programs, and I called to let them know. Diversity, equity, and inclusion -- like democracy and justice -- are very good ideas, but they require attention and oversight. They won't happen naturally. They require our active participation.

Haaaa! Thanks, Stereo Hysteria!
Check out the new single by @hussalonia.bsky.social - and maybe during your next call to your Congressperson, suggest it be officially adopted as America's next national anthem? hussalonia.bandcamp.com/track/rich-w...
