DONALD TRUMP: [asleep, drooling on long red tie] SENATE DEMOCRATS: fine, we give in

Absolute queen shit

The entire premise of 30 Rock was that Tina Fey somehow wasn't stunning.

"Republicans are keeping the government closed, starving kids, and making you miss your Thanksgiving flights because they want your healthcare costs to go through the roof" is actually a pretty effective message for Democrats

A cynical operator trying to alienate from Trump from Vance might engineer a story like this. Like Queen Elizabeth I, I can't imagine Trump can abide much talk of succession.

lmao

If you’re still in line, STAY IN LINE

They will run such ads regardless.

I remember this clearly as the moment when Brat Summer gave way to Waterboarders' Autumn.

He doesn't know what tariffs are.

RIP Donna Jean. "Sunrise" was a cool, snakecharmer of a track, and under different circumstances, could have housed a monster, witchy jam. archive.org/details/gd78...

Happy Rudy Van Gelder Day to all who celebrate.

NEW MURIEL NEW MURIEL NEW MURIEL

now what?

Watching the Wolrd Series

holy fuck

I can't breathe

The Jewish right discovering in real time that the Trumpist right, and the open bigotries it has unleashed upon the US body politic, is not in fact going to spare Jews, is quite a trip.

Though both falling on October 31, Halloween and Reformation Day are at cross-purposes. Either we can interact with the dead or we can't.

It's Cabbage Night, where my north Jersey folks at?

That World Series bumper track was Terrapin Station.

Love that Chicago is just churning out prelates though.

People will hopefully be posting their favorite tracks from the late great drummer Jack DeJohnette (RIP) all day but I needed to start with the Grateful Dead-ish countrified boogie of "Back-Woods Song" the opening cut on the first Gateway LP from 1975. A real gem. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QDr...

Love when people leave snap reviews in library books.

In the present era of parsimonious word limits, it's hard to believe that the "here's everything written on the subject I just mentioned in passing" footnote has survived.

everything the Trump II admin puts out as agitprop:

Our department is doing a search in 20th-century Continental European History. Please circulate.

¿por qué no los dos?

Of course American fascism is just consumerist slop.

plz don’t take advice about US protests from someone who spells it “utilise”

I know we've come a long way from the 90s high watermark of asshole record store clerk gatekeeping, but you simply cannot be spinning The Eagles' Greatest Hits on the store turntable. #retvrn

you fucked around and now the Episcopalians are doing memes. are you happy now. are you

The expression is "a few bad apples spoil the bunch." I still don't understand how it has come to mean "isolated incident."

We will not stand for this.

Political theology in this country used to be tasteful and subdued, like a well-mixed martini.

I have been working on a book about the separation of church and state for God knows how many years and I somehow never saw this quote from George H.W. Bush on being shot down over the South Pacific during World War II.

This guy butt-dialed a constitutional crisis. Amazing.

why does Stanley Milgram look like he's about to release the best industrial noise 7" of 1981

These guys are so vulnerable to defecting to Chicago

The knives are out.

Amazing how this dude continues to find new ways to absolutely suck ass.

Even if mostly honored in the breach, the cultural stigma Gen X attached to selling out was a good thing and should be restored. A culture where people are emboldened to admit I BELIEVE IN NOTHING & WILL DO ANYTHING FOR MONEY is inestimably worse than one where people even pretend to have ethics.

Imagine being summoned from the furthest marches of the empire to listen to this.
