I am tormented with an everlasting itch for things remote. I love to sail forbidden seas, and land on barbarous coasts.

We’ve been trying to pass e-book cost regulation for libraries in NYS for several years but unfortunately the Big Five lobby against it

This is a verified GoFundMe for librarian Luanne James from the Rutherford County Library Alliance. gofund.me/f7704eb98 Read what happened to this hero: www.newschannel5.com/news/rutherf...

Fobazi was an amazing person. 💔

I am late to this but there are literally no excuses for that sad, painful end for the Bills oh my godddd

people complaining about podcasts having a video accompaniment now need to realize that it is an accessibility thing. also you can still listen to your podcast as just a podcast! what’s the problem!

The Quiet American Pete Turner, 1958

idk how to explain this but Industry is just Skins set in the finance world

Sorry Wuthering Heights (2026), but Fried Green Tomatoes (1991) did it first, and better

I could not even fathom a reason why a governor of a very blue state with pockets of red would be against measures to combat book bans. www.nyclu.org/press-releas...

We are disappointed that Governor Hochul has vetoed the Freedom to Read Act www.thedailynewsonline.com/news/may-cri...

the ancestry and posterity of Grief go further than the ancestry and posterity of Joy

for the record tho, when the bills do the tush push, i call it buff stuff

ugh

Tom Brady saying everyone in Buffalo he sees is giving him the finger LMAOOOO

during the wxpn countdown we cultivated community and it was beautiful. but tonight there will be a Bills v Eagles showdown … sorry Philly friends we’re enemies now

I think it would be okay if, after Christmas, I went into hibernation for the rest of winter.

You can’t convince me that the red pantsuit pic from earlier this week isn’t why Stefanik dropped out. It definitely factored into this decision

Bonnie’s cover of Angel of Montgomery is so beautiful and it was very cool to hear her talking about it #XPNcountdown

Respect isn't top five?! #XPNCountdown

Talking Heads' Take Me to The River is not better than Whitney's I Will Always Love You, sorry #XPNCountdown

alright, Proud Mary concludes it for me, with 10/10 songs and 16.625 points. Now it's just straight bangers one after another #XPNCountdown

ohh that was a beautiful segue from Proud Mary into Fugees' Killing me Softly #XPNCountdown

you know what I'm gonna say - Proud Mary is an all timer!!!! how can you not dance to this song #XPNCountdown

"Me and Bobby McGee" is for sure one of my 11s. This is an all-timer #XPNCountdown

yesssss CHANGES I'm obsessed with this song #XPNCountdown

The Wizard of Oz was my mom's favorite movie and she loved this version of "Over the Rainbow" so this is an emotional one for me #XPNCountdown

I think William Shatner's style with this song really gets that disdain to come across, I love it #XPNCountdown

this is a cover? #XPNcountdown

the first time I heard "Police & Thieves" by the Clash was the soundtrack for The Royal Tenenbaums but didn't know it was a cover #XPNCountdown

leave it to Grateful Dead to take a two minute song and make it not that #XPNCountdown

Calling all New Yorkers who love libraries! The Governor has received the Freedom To Read bill as of 12/9/2025. She has ten days to sign it into law. Drop her a line and ask her to sign the bill with this link from New York Library Association app.oneclickpolitics.com/campaign-pag...

what I've been learning the last few days is I certainly do not listen to enough Nina Simone and I should listen to her every single day. #XPNCountdown

the final day of the countdown is the distraction I need. let's goooo #XPNCountdown

it’s the middle of the night and I am panicking because I just realized an heirloom is missing and I’ll never see it again

you know she’s waiting, just anticipating for things that shell never never never never never possess #XPNCountdown

Whoa, Killing Me Softly is way too high here #XPNCountdown

“Sloop John B” is one of those songs that is “my” song and the only reason I didn’t vote for it because I didn’t realize it was a cover lol #XPNCountdown

all these covers of traditional Irish songs made me realize I could have voted for Dropkick Murphys’ Fields of Athenry #XPNCountdown

Ok, so I knew this would be the version that would be playing when I voted so this is just to say the 2008 version that Amy released is better. Her vocals shine on that one. They added too much to this version #XPNCountdown

I love how many Ramones covers have come up #XPNCountdown

haven’t been able to listen to the countdown all day due to work stuff but enjoyed getting to hear that Pete Townshend number just now #XPNCountdown

these songs are better than Nina’s Sinnerman? #XPNCountdown

Another incredible song that is too low! Nina was so gifted #XPNCountdown

I love Emmylou SO much. #XPNcountdown

Thank you, Beatles!!! #XPNCountdown

I’m missing something I think - I am confused by Joan Armatrading being co-listed as the original artist for Sweet Jane. #XPNCountdown

I legitimately enjoyed The Futureheads’ debut which included this cover (which introduced me to Kate Bush). It was a lot of fun #XPNCountdown
