Surprised to end up at COSM (Chapel of Sacred Mirrors) last night, accidentally meet Alex Grey, ring in the Autumnal Equinox with a bonfire and old friends. Successfully passed through into my favorite season of the year.

quick note: that's no longer journalism

Every comedian who has released a special where the primary image is them with duct tape over their mouth, where ya at? Just wanted to say naughty words? Or maybe you're actually into *this* brand of fascism? Clear it up or we'll draw our own conclusions, I suppose.

The TV/advertising model doesn’t work if no one’s watching. You’re welcome.

Hope this ends up being a long list of names.

Goebbels called the actors' behavior “brazen, impertinent, arrogant and tactless" — NYT, Feb. 4, 1939 www.nytimes.com/1939/02/04/a...

Welcome to my canary graveyard. We only recently opened, but I am now rich.

SONG OF THE DAY: Hallelujah the Hills (@ryanhwalsh.bsky.social), "Joke's On You" #wsayo Joke's on you I thought you knew When everybody's laughing They're laughing at you "Why did Jimmy Kimmel get canceled? What to know about cowardly ABC move" (AZ Republic) www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i1a...

@daveishere.bsky.social good to see you, Dave! Thank you for coming out

Tonight! I’ll sing two songs at this, one cover, one of my own, both of the protest genre.

If you came upon this sign on your evening walk and, additionally, saw an interesting gathering going on inside the green space beyond the sign, would you think you’re welcome to join/participate?!

"No details of the settlement have so far been released" Anyone got a guess of how much the settlement was?

David Lynch's Los Angeles compound listed for 15million. I knew he owned two houses next to each other but apparently it was three (!) houses with tons of property behind those buildings, too. Here is the Zillow listing, which provides this revealing map: www.zillow.com/homedetails/...

If the Gov. of Utah did indeed provide new information about the political leanings of the shooter, weirdly, it's not printed in this piece as far as I can tell.

Working hard, staying focused. Sixteen total posts between Twitter and Bluesky over one week. (Why, that's a little over two per day!) Not a word about the GOP declaring war on Democrats, not a word defending transgender Americans, not a word endorsing NYC's mayoral candidate. Delivering results.

"Performative utterances are a type of speech act where the act of saying something brings about the very thing that is described. Rather than simply describing a state of affairs, performative utterances actually perform or enact the action they refer to."

Ghana's fantasy coffins are unique creations that embody the essence of a person's life. Known by locals as Abebuo, these colorful coffins, shaped like animals, tools, or symbols, serve as a final message from the deceased.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

On sale Friday!

Just walking out the door for a trip and checked the mailbox. My Hallelujah The Hills DECK of cards has perfect timing. These are the first 13 songs I will listen to on the road today. 52 songs. 4 albums. 2 Jokers. 1 DECK.

Hills in NH this Friday + I'm one of the singers at next week's Which Side? event

"Motivated only by bad faith." Imagine if political journalists could speak this clearly!

Going on Bake Off, ignoring all the prompts and cooking the judges a big tray of buffalo chicken

Watch Gutfield sweat it out after dispensing this undeniable flop of a joke here.

Can’t believe Johnson just blew John Barron’s cover like this

“Dept. of War” name is like the class blowhard who spent the summer in Europe and comes back claiming everyone calls him “Maestro” now. Shut up, Jim

I know people are overwhelmed by too much news from every angle, and maybe people are distracted by the "terrorist" language, or just plain exhausted. But this is the President of the United States saying he is going to go around killing people because he thinks they're criminals. And already did.

Thank you, Mayor Wu. Meanwhile, Josh Craft is an all-night McDonalds ranting about how bike lanes fucked up his fantasy football draft and imagining what he would wear when it finally came time to lick MAGA's fetid boot.

I like how they keep putting out the same batch of Epstein files as if they're re-releasing the Beatles catalog with slightly different mastering and thinking it'll satiate everyone. I ain't buying shit til it's got "Carnival of Light" on it.

Long Covid has more than 200 potential symptoms. Selective gullibility is one of mine

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

THIS SATURDAY: We're so psyched to return to the Jamaica Plain Music Festival t! Hallelujah The Hills on at 6PM and there's incredible music, food, and merriment all day long.

I’m a big believer that anything a band is doing onstage should be allowed in the audience as well.

Not dead. Just a lazy, selfish fuck.

Garcia: We finally got word from the Epstein estate. They're going to be providing the actual Epstein book… the estate is actually going to actually now get us that book and a bunch of other documents that they have that's actually not been reported yet.

The average American simply has no idea how quickly the infrastructure that keeps us safe and healthy is collapsing. These systems run in the background thanks to government employees who quietly do critical work. Those employees are being purged and systems are being destroyed.

Ah so "Trump derangement syndrome" IS real, turns out

JUST ANNOUNCED: We're so psyched to return to the Jamaica Plain Music Festival this year! We'll be playing a 30min set at 6PM and there's incredible music, food, and merriment all day long. Meet us there 9/6/25! RSVP: www.facebook.com/events/65155...

I fell down the rabbit hole of this Facebook account called "Rock and Roll Universe" that's 100% A.I. generated content about rock stars visiting other ailing/dying rock stars in the hospital. Was trying to figure out if it was engagement bait or pathological obsession...
