People are so brainwashed about Chicago being a crime infested hellhole that they assume white people and single family homes must be in the burbs. This is in the city.
its remarkable to see random suburbanites in their fucking PJs have more courage than the vast majority of america's political, social, and civil elites

Yes. RIP Bobby Jenks. 😢
Anyway. Bobby Jenks was on the mound when my favorite team won probably the only championship they’re likely to win in my lifetime.

So, I’ll remember his name until the day I die.

Lots of love to his family.

Back in 1992 I got James Ellroy to sign my copy of WHITE JAZZ and his inscription — “Fear the comedy of the patriarchy on the skids!” — is exactly what we’re experiencing right now. Frightened wanna-be alphas who are lashing out for the lulz.

Sad news. Mike Peters was a good man…
Rock in peace, Mike Peters. First sighted with The Alarm, Dingwalls, 1982, the night Johnny Thunders came on for Sylvain Sylvain's encore. Last connection - the happy and optimistic email he sent me a month ago, still full of life and good feeling. Travel on well, Dude.

David Johansen, the last NY Doll standing, is gone. The band had it all: smashing songs, a singer who sounded like a New York City cabdriver at rush hour shouting at the traffic, a rhythm section that roared like a subway train, and a couple of guitarists with a killer array of riffs. And ... (1/2)

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous.

Obama and Biden may think they are honoring the office of the presidency by keeping quiet at a moment like this — if so that’s just preening vanity — they owe it to the office and to the Republic that until last month it served to speak up loudly and clearly and without relent.
