offered to let my three-year-old stay up late to watch the rest of the oscars and he said “but I have to go to bed. to sleep.” and wandered off. he has never gone to bed willingly in his life. thank you Adrien Brody

Adrien Brody: “Stop the music! Let me cook!” What he’s cooking:

aint no way we cut medicaid and housing assistance so jeff bezos could buy this shirt

seeing a lot of “i bought this before elon went crazy” stickers on teslas. considering leaving a note on someone’s car that says “he was already crazy, you just weren’t paying attention”

Someone get Bob Dylan on Bluesky.

friday night plans include having a stomach ache because i ate too many pickles and googling “is godzilla sad”

The official Prince estate account on FB posted this an hour back. This sadly clearly means that Ezra Edelman's nine-hour documentary, which would have provided a truly all around portrait of him rather than a gloss, will never surface. And that's a damn shame.

They’re trying to exhaust us all to where we fall into apathy - the tried & true authoritarian playbook. Stay focused & vehemently take care of each other - esp those most at risk. XO

Got yr tickets yet? I’ve wanted to play The Wake Forest Listening Room for a while. It’s gonna be special. Two sets, one totally solo and the 2nd w/friends like @bluereid.bsky.social , @rachelkiel.bsky.social , Jesse Huebner, Matt Vooris, and @rodneyevans.bsky.social . Come on down. 🙂

DCA staffing on Wednesday was reportedly not normal — with one air traffic controller handling the job of two people. These shortages will only be worsened by federal budget cuts and Trump's hiring freeze. We should be investing in public workers, not attacking them.

Trump's spending freeze was unconstitutional and a violation of the Impoundment Control Act. But the public uproar yesterday should serve as a reminder that Trump's plans to gut federal programs are deeply unpopular. Keep fighting. Keep up the pressure. Don't tune out. www.cnn.com/2025/01/29/p...

Smol tip from an elected. As a general rule we do not like to be on the wrong side of our constituents. Some are absolutely so removed that calls never filter up to them, but the vast majority of even the top level do pay attention when their staff are getting buried in angry calls. It works.

not currently dying but i hope someone plays dylan’s “most of the time” at my funeral. my favorite song of all time since i was five years old. magisterial.

if you’re having a tough day, i really recommend listening to bob dylan’s “oh mercy” album in full. it has helped me out today when i needed it and it might help you, too

From yesterday: Matthew Sweet has posted an update on his stroke and what his future holds.

Busy recapping this completely unhip and monetarily worthless Yamaha Electone organ from 1979. It doesn’t matter - I LOVE this thing / from the chonky Alps switches to the pure analog warmth of the arpeggiator / even has a built-in Leslie. Some Electones utilize CS-80 sound core ヤマハ株式会社
