It's so impossibly awful what's been done to Palestine by Israel. You think it's bad, then you hear something even worse. Just a chasm of depravity.

Putting aside for a second the question of who would be a better senator, it's amazing how rarely Republicans get caught up in the media's "can't relate to normal people" trap. They're all freaks! Not one of them could hold a 3-minute conversation with a normal American.

Tim Burchett said straws are for women only, RFK Jr works out in jeans, J.D. Vance didn't know how to order donuts, and the president thinks you need to show photo ID to buy "groceries" which is an old-fashioned term only he rediscovered.

New album by Stone, folks! It seems we've caught the artist in the middle of an experimental phase; this is very different from his usual PostPunk fare. I recommend the track "Peanut Butter Realism". Give it a listen, will you? stonessonicjournal.bandcamp.com/album/featur...

Another very family-centric Sunday for the books. Never take it for granted, when you have your loved ones around! See you folks, take care of yourselves and those you care about. Stay safe, stay sane, always keep going! ❤️ Enjoy you're Sunday; another Monday is already sneaking up on us...

???? They are absolutely shoving it down our throats! just spent 15 minutes this morning trying to figure out how to disable Gemini from the Gmail account I’ve been using for 20 years. I never opted in to AI being able to train itself using my private correspondence. It’s the default setting now!

Hey, #MusicianSky! If you plan to release new singles or albums, or hold an online event (listening parties, concerts, etc) NEXT WEEK, May 25th to May 31st, tell me about it! I'm putting this list together every SUNDAY evening. Artists, bands and labels of all genres are welcome! 👍

That's just one strand of many, but as you can see, this was an identity the far right advanced on its own and it is much much older than liars like Mike Johnson would have you believe.

Ken Paxton is historically corrupt, John Cornyn is a MAGA traffic cone, and Talarico might be a SECRET VEGETARIAN WITH MID TACO ORDERS. Which one has the best case to be elected to the Senate? WHO CAN SAY?

MAGA 2024: “No one will be tougher on China than Trump.” Trump 2026: “More Chinese students will be coming into the US, and we’re encouraging them to buy property and farmland.” MAGA 2026:

A bit of a melodic hardcore cleanser from all the melodeath I’ve been consuming. From last year.

I dunno what my album of the year is at this point but this is really high up there. Truly incredible stuff.

Name the strangest film you’ve ever seen.

Name a film that falls off in the second half.

Name a song with money, bread, or paper in the lyrics.

The stories & photos from today’s voting rights marches in Alabama deserve to be seen by people who weren’t able to stand there in person.

Why did it take me this long to learn about the stereophonics? They're very good.

the next James Bond should be a multi-racial anti-AI and antifa trans atheist whose prime objective is to kill all the billionaires, Nazis, anti-vaxxers, racists, rapists, pedophiles, and transphobes

Oh and also, I've added it on Bandcamp, with its actual new cover art. sylfvr.bandcamp.com/album/memori...

Google with me! Did Thom Yorke ever cop to being a huge Tori fan? EVH did.

Here's one cat. Where's the other one? Hmmmm?

Got HAF and listened to @etherdiver.bsky.social ‘s latest album on headphones last night. That album took me on a journey! I recommend it! etherdiver.bandcamp.com/album/the-me...

If you don't know who Bill Withers is then it's only going to be a one night stand. I have standards

#JustListened I didn't think a Techno/Dungeonsynth/BlackMetal mix would work for me, yet here we are! Highly recommended! godendac.bandcamp.com/album/polder...

Absolutely disgusting that not a single soul will face any consequences for trying to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

There are no laws…the law is dead…

5 years ago, I had an agent and big dreams but zero book deals. After 150+ rejections, I parted ways with my agent & signed with a small press. The duology they said would “die on sub”? Now it’s a 6-book deal. Rejection isn’t the end. Keep going. #WritingCommunity

We expect the so-called leader of the Democratic Party to take action in this matter....
