The loss of Rob and Michelle is devastating. The stuff of Greek tragedy.

people playing music/videos on their phone speakers in public is more than just mildly annoying and is instead a leading indicator of the decline of community and empath
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

This is how he's responded.
He's never apologized or acknowledged his mistake publicly. He stopped responding to my posts when he sold the painting to someone else.
I waited a full year for a refund and did not ask anyone to "dogpile" him.
This is incredibly unprofessional.

I’ll add context and personal perspective where I’m able, and I encourage you to weigh in with your thoughts and memories. Credit goes to @irishnumberones for putting the notion in my head. #USXmasNo1s

The Christmas number one: a time-honored tradition for the UK and Irish charts that somehow never caught on in America. Given Billboard’s recent shifts in chart qualifications (and the annual return of certain holiday warhorses to the Hot 100), it could soon become as big a deal for us Yanks.

My last trip to Houston’s famed rodeo happened almost thirty-one springs ago, to see this band in support of this album. It was a fantastic show and Raul brought the goods as always.

In no way surprised but still disappointed on some level that George Strait participated in this farce.
Donald Trump said he “ended the woke political programming” at the Kennedy Center where KISS, Sylvester Stallone, George Strait, Gloria Gaynor, and Michael Crawford are being honored. The President has claimed he’s hosting tonight because he was begged to, adding “maybe next year we’ll honor Trump?”
