#IsmuasMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge #MusicSky 12: A song that sounds like a gentle breeze

#IsmuasMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge #MusicSky 11: A song about a love that changed you. Probably something by Dylan or Cohen or Mitchell if I put my mind to it, but this sprung to mind immediately and it's lovely too:

Interesting that I have very little follow-up to this. I saw La Migra pulling over at least a dozen vehicles within a 50-mile stretch of road last week and spotted a couple of their cameras, both on an interstate and a smaller highway. I wasn't even really looking, but they don't hide them well.

#IsmuasMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge #MusicSky 5: A song with a chromatic melody Ah hell, I'll give it a shot though I'm not sure I know what I'm talking about:

From the Kennedy Center to the $1.8 billion slush fund, Trump is on a losing streak.

#IsmuasMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge #MusicSky 30: A mashup combining at least two songs I think this has 17 songs in it, give or take.

So, I found out that this was a thing that exists and had to have it. I have the most random but cool (to me) collection of Shoes memorabilia... #MusicSky #PowerPop #Shoes en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoes_(...

Maybe pull the plug on all commercial surveillance for everyone while you're at it.

A little good news today:

Protesting doesn't accomplish anything! Wait... this just in:

#IsmuasMonthOfMusic #MusicChallenge #MusicSky 28: A modern folk revival track Stretching it some, but it's modern and folk-adjacent? If you know anything about me, you know Fantastic Negrito's gonna show up sometime.

Don't know why this song got stuck in my head...

One thing you can count on is that nobody in ICE would ever lie.

“On May 23, 1796, a newspaper ad was placed seeking the return of Ona ‘Oney’ Judge, an enslaved Black woman who had ‘absconded from the household of the President of the United States,” George Washington.”

Just for the funk of it. #MusicSky #FunkSky

Recall: Dems hung tough on no funding for ICE & BP, Rs caved and passed rest of DHS and decided to do ICE and BP via reconciliation. Trump wanted ballroom then slush fund, couldn’t work it out, & here we are. Lesson for Dems: Hanging tough put pressure on Rs, -> Rs in disarray.
