I love the Pogues but that Yeah Yeah Yeah x infinity song is crap.

Trump wraps up a speech to military leaders that represented a major escalation of his effort to weaponize the armed forces into a tool he can use to violently quash domestic dissent. Hard to imagine how anyone with a shred of dignity can keep serving after this, which of course is the point.

Check it out! The Reactions' teenage power pop/garage album from 2002 has been digitally reissued and it's a good one if you dig stuff like the Exploding Hearts, the Strokes, early Replacements, etc. Grab it for just a dollar here: tircrecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-re...

So a gun violence apologist is the victim of gun violence and we're supposed to feel sorry for this guy? I don't think so. The larger tragedy is that we live in a society where gun violence is so normalized that even its defenders can’t escape it. #CharlieKirk

Trump is "moving on" from plans to deploy troops to Chicago. Chicago showed us that when workers, students, the Mayor, and community members all stand up together, Trump backs down. This is what we need in every city across America.

The UK’s actuaries aren’t pulling punches: climate inaction risks “catastrophic societal and economic disaster.” If the people who literally calculate risk are this blunt, maybe we should listen. 🔗 actuaries.org.uk/news-and-med... #ClimateCrisis #Risk #PlanetarySolvency

Sometimes I dabble in "graphic design," like right now I'm helping Jeffy & the Sunken Heads with the art for their next album, "Get Sunk!" If you're not hip, don't worry, neither are they. They're previously responsible for this: jeffy2.bandcamp.com/album/jeffy-... #budgetrock #garagepunk #punk

Can someone in the legacy media explain to me how this is not front page news? How is it that only Democracy Docket is covering this unfolding authoritarian takeover? www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I’ve started the process of reclaiming German citizenship. My mother was German by descent but lost her citizenship when she married my dad in 1945 (as the law required then). Thanks to a 2021 reform, I can now restore it — with the hope that we’ll eventually make a new life in the EU.

"Scientists have warned previously that Amoc collapse must be avoided 'at all costs'. It would shift the tropical rainfall belt on which many millions of people rely to grow their food, plunge western Europe into extreme cold winters and summer droughts, and add 50cm to already rising sea levels."

The military takeover of Washington is not a “distraction” from Epstein. It’s a military takeover of Washington, which is an even bigger deal, and those of us who kill brain cells reporting on this stuff knows it’s been an explicit goal since before the election.

A new (reissue) TIRC Records release already! Go get it for JUST A BUCK! The surf rock/cowpunk stylings of Space Age Palmer circa the late 1990s, featuring future Left Arm/Bruiser Queen drummer Jason Potter and ex-Snake Ranch vocalist Greg "Frog" Kessler). tircrecords.bandcamp.com/album/venus

Paramount+ has a 7-day free trial. Sign up, then watch the South Park episode. Pick Stephen Colbert when prompted for recommendations. Cancel before 7 days. For the reason, write: “Canceling bootlickers who stifle speech for money.” 💪 via @reallyamerican.bsky.social

This is a dangerous expansion of the police state for nearly 180,000 people. Placing those going through the legal process — our neighbors and loved ones — under 24/7 government surveillance is a gross violation of our civil liberties.

Trump would definitely not like it if you shared this South Park video, so whatever you do, don’t do it! #trumpsouthpark
