Well the best daily music critic in the country just got laid off. ENDLESS SCREAMING
I’ve been laid off by The Washington Post

Serving as this newspaper’s pop music critic for the past 16-plus years has been my privilege, my joy

Endless solidarity to my righteous colleagues, endless gratitude to our faithful readers
