During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

:D:D It interests me at least and so far everything I've ever released has interested at minimum one other person, so technically I have a perfect record 😃

The other day I literally had to talk myself out of changing a part in 4/4 for being too boring, reminding myself that my LP only has 2 out of 10 tracks that are primarily in 4/4

SNEAK PEEK OF NEW MUSIC FROM PRIME BIRDS

This is a track that will be featured on my upcoming LP, but I rushed out a lil lyric video for it because I felt like it should see the light of day sooner.

Loud, angry, hard-core inspired, and bite sized (only 58 seconds).

curse you for sneaking in that "on which you're wrong" in a way I absolutely would've also done, but your second point is bang on.

On purpose: Dream Theater (maybe only 4 actually but I'll go with it)
By accident: Simple Plan

End of list.

Five bands you’ve seen more than five times, in no particular order or ranking:
Carter USM
Mogwai
Run the Jewels
Super Furry Animals
Spiritualized

I think it's also possible I saw Kula Shaker five times, none of them by choice

I sincerely apologize for agreeing with her A&R team

Prime Birds @primebirds.bsky.social · 1d

k it's also quite good. way better than dumbass espresso. I prefer Manchild and Please Please Please, but this is also good. It's at least giving me something!

oh I'm an idiot I didn't know that was a song I thought you were just stanning sabrina lmao. Is it erasure if I honestly didn't know about it? lol

I'm just saying maybe I would've hopped on the hype train sooner if she didn't start out with a song so nauseatingly boring. Having that song play all day every day is like bein force-fed tap water. Everything else I've heard from her is legendary

I think I've said it before but why is "Espresso" Sabrina Carpenter's biggest hit, when it's the worst of her singles? Please Please Please is maybe a top 100 pop song ever, Taste Me or whatever is great too, and Manchild is so infectious and catchy. Espresso is like, aggressively boring

The mostly commonly cited ones are probably Etobicoke (the "k" is silent) and Spadina (rhymes with vagina)

Now you know how I felt when I watched the move with Mark Ruffalo in it about the Zodiac killer, which I wasn't really very into but stuck out 'til the end because I wanted to find out who the killer was

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson:

"Private establishments can partner with us to make it clear that private property is private property and ICE cannot enter establishments without a valid warrant ... If Congress will not check this administration, then Chicago will."

The American system of government actually gives a tremendous amounts of power to non-presidents; it's just that most political figures outside of the POTUS are not doing a good job of making it seem that way. They'd better start using that power or they're gonna lose it.

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.
