Donald Trump is exactly what he sounds like, a Hitler wannabe with the brain of a cabbage.

The USA is in serious trouble with him in charge.

Empires And Dance | Simple Minds | 1980

With artwork from The Artifex Studio, Simple Minds get a clean and striking design for album no. 3. The font and reversed lettering has been used by the Manics on numerous occasions. SM at their most European both in sound and style.

Raskin: "Elon Musk, you may have illegally seized power over the financial payments systems of the Treasury, but you don't control the money of the American people. The US Congress does that under Article 1 of the Constitution ... we don't have a fourth branch of government called 'Elon Musk'"

Endsong | The Cure | 2024

Couldn’t end without including The Cure. Bleakness on a grand scale, 10m and 24s of it in fact. Oh it’s so good having them back.

Thanks @top10nathan.bsky.social
