A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down.

All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown.

So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

Omg, I just read the lyrics to about 6 songs on the album and every one is about just how country he is and that he'd never give it up for money or, god forbid, A CITY!!! Huge shoulder chip. Who you trying to convince, bro?

Saw the new Naked Gun this week and laughed hard pretty much the whole time! Highly recommended.

RIP. Trouble in Mind was a big influence on BBiB and I remember spinning so many of those early TiM releases (Paperhead, Mmoss, Resonars, Doug Tuttle, Morgan Delt) on the East Village Radio show from 2009-2014. Big love to Bill and Lisa and their artists for all the amazing work!

Big fan of Haylie's!

Raven Sings The Blues @ravensingstheblues.bsky.social · 14d

Haylie Davis slips free of he name Lady Apple Tree with an announcement of her debut album for Fire. Davis’ ability to drape her songs in the soft-focus melancholy of the ‘70s remains. Lush folk-tinged pop that’s comfortable in it’s own bittersweet sighs. FFO Sylvie, Kate Bollinger bit.ly/3Vygl1i

This month's R U Kind with Mike Newman stares down at you omnisciently like an ant on a picnic plate and asks, "By all means take a bite out of the Swing Out Sister jam. But when you're done, don't forget to wander over and nibble the fIREHOSE pâte and the Roy Orbison cheesecake."

A 12-foot statue of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein frolicking and holding hands appeared on the National Mall in Washington, DC on Tuesday, September 23.

A plaque under the statue states that it has been erected “In Honor of Friendship Month."

I love when you hug and kiss your dog for like a straight minute and then when you let them go, they instantly bend down to bite at their crotch so hard and you wonder how long you’d been holding them back from that.

We're at the point where the Trump does something worse than Watergate daily, often multiple times a day. And none of it makes news; it's just normal now.

Ahmed Baba @ahmedbaba.bsky.social · 17d

In a less insane time, if it was discovered that the President of the United States said this privately to their AG, it would’ve triggered an all-encompassing, impeachable corruption scandal.

Here, Trump is saying it publicly and it’s just another Saturday.

As a producer on a modern country radio show, I’m often embarrassed by really bad lyrics but this new guy Chase Matthew takes the cake. The whole Ridgeline v Chevy thing and that the guy she’s cheating with doesn’t have “straight pipes” is 🧑‍🍳 💋

They would rather ban half the population of American citizens than even consider more gun regulation.
