You know how quickly the boys found you, Charlie Brown. All those tedious sticky fumblings in the back seats of cars, while you could only dream of getting out, getting anywhere... getting all the way to the FBI…
Ah, you think darkness is your ally, Charlie Brown?
Is it safe, Charlie Brown?

I generally think that "dead internet theory" is pretty accurate. I think most internet traffic is just data scraping. I don't see a way forward for the tech industry unless the government steps in and starts breaking up companies like Meta and Google.

Phase IV is a masterpiece that deserves to be talked about way more. Read my take on it! #horrorbeat #comicsbeat #scifi www.comicsbeat.com/horror-beat-...
Horror Beat: PHASE IV puts ants at the top of the food chain, humanity be damned
Phase IV is a science fiction film that resorts to the language of horror often enough to make its super smart ants terrifying to behold.

It was Oswald and the Commission was thorough and in good faith, but only to an extent. It was agenda-driven and focused on enforcing a narrative that cauterized inflaming foreign relations. What it disregarded, ignored, and omitted in favor of that agenda backfired in the form of conspiracy theory.
We do know who killed JFK. The Warren Commission was an incredibly thorough and good-faith effort to prove and document what had happened, which they did. The conspiracy theories arose in spite of best efforts to avoid them, but there really isn't anything they could have reasonably done better.
My first political memory - exactly 62 years ago right now, a 4-year-old boy trying to understand his mom's tears - is still the biggest event in my lifetime. We still (IMO) don't *really* know who killed JFK, but we know the public's trust was shattered. It's a straight line to today's mess

Thanks so much to GQ for publishing my liner notes for the new Replacements 'Let It Be' boxset, out on Friday. Extra special thanks to Jessica Hopper, Patterson Hood and Brian Paulson for their extraordinary insights. What an absolute joy this project has been to work on. www.gq.com/story/when-t...
When The Replacements' Courage Was at its Peak
On their 1984 album ‘Let It Be,’ the Minneapolis indie-rock wastrels spewed a message of working-class passion and outsider solidarity into the world's answering machine.

On this day in 1951, John Preston “Pete” Hill passed way at the age of 69. The five-tool player was considered one of the first superstars in black baseball. Here’s an in-progress painting of him with the Chicago Leland Giants in 1907, facing the Cuban Stars of Havana at Logan Park.

Of “Time Enough at Last”, he said: “I don’t think I’ve ever done any other project that people talk to me more about than that show. .. It’s gotten to the point where when they first approach me, I almost know what they’re going to say.”

This time, the summer camp killer goes after the parents. It's by me and Gavin Guidry…and you can order it here!

This is tragic through and through. Real voices, real artists, and the world takes them.
Snider was born in Portland and became well known in the roots music scene of the early 2000s, particularly for his album “East Nashville Sky,” which helped shape the modern alternative country genre.
