NEW: Five years after Jan 6, police victims fight to stop further “whitewashing” of history youtube.com/shorts/KTRVc...

Five years ago.

Fifth year anniversary of Trump's coup attempt.

My friend @charlotteclymer.bsky.social has written about Mark Kelly’s distinguished military career. This is not to be missed. open.substack.com/pub/charlott...

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

In a careful and elaborate smokescreen, almost undetectable, Trump simultaneously attacked Venezuela and Mark Kelly, all of which was designed to draw attention away from the Trump-Epstein files.

Here's some inventive fusion music with a nice sound, from Tory Slusher. youtu.be/esZSXm1-r3o?...

F. Zappa: "When political leaders do not demonstrate honesty, when people lie constantly in the media - everybody get used to 'The Big Lie' as a way of life. At that point, honesty becomes a quaintly outmoded concept - nobody wants to be honest anymore, because if they are, they might finish last."

Frank Zappa, from The Real Frank Zappa Book (Frank Zappa and Peter Occhiogrosso, 1989): "I don't think we have an honest president. I don't think that he is surrounded by honest people. I don't believe that most of the people in Congress or in the Senate are honest."

14 days since Trump blew his Epstein Files Transparency Act deadline. 10 days since the last Epstein document release. Nine days since DOJ announced that it is withholding “over a million more” Epstein documents. A total of zero “Epstein” headlines at @nytimes.com and @washingtonpost.com

Holy fuck! Showing ZERO fear of retribution from a vengeance-obsessed TRAITOR who attempted to overturn the 2020 presidential election, usurp the constitution, and overthrow the U.S. government, Jack Smith, with ZERO fucks left to give is what a badass American hero looks like.

Pelosi: “The President incited an insurrection. We begged him to send the National Guard, they never sent them. This President is trying to re-write history… it was an assault on the constitution of 🇺🇸.”

This message hits hard.

“I am the first UN official to be sanctioned. For what? For exposing a genocide?” —Francesca Albanese

If this is true, it is the most impeachable offense ever.

From Tory Slusher, with Andrew Baca, a remarkable new version of "Straw Poll" from her album of the same name. #Musicsky youtu.be/6P-5KvTRP8o?...

There is a real problem of AI amplifying mental health problems. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

I asked ChatGPT if the cat was Heisenberg's or Schroedinger's. First it gave me one answer, and the the other. 🗿 or less AI?

RIP Jimmy Cliff, one of the greats. I was fortunate enough to have seen him in concert, sharing a bill with Peter Tosh. youtu.be/AzwRI62Wg70?...

Trump is crashing the economy, as was perfectly predictable when he started his crazy tariff stunts. The public is starting to hold him responsible (about time!) newrepublic.com/article/2034...

Every outlet worth a damn should be calling this out. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Trump's lawyer to the Supreme Court: "The tariffs would be most effective, so to speak, if no person ever paid them,” he told the justices. Hmm, so they would work like a down vote on social media? Or like teenagers not talking to each other? Or like voodoo dolls?

Take that you idiot Megyn Kelly substack.com/@sugarrhi/no...

ChatGPT is like a Trump cabinet member, it will give whatever answer it thinks you want.

Thanks Bernie Sanders for being a beacon of truth, inspiration and hope.

Ordered this lefty headless guitar. I have a Strandberg, which I really love, but I wanted a fixed bridge option, too. Let's see if this one gets played its share. muzikercdn.com/uploads/prod...

Here's a Exododus double play

Meow!

I didn't do this one, but I can't stop laughing. Look at it! 😅🤣😂🤣

“The sad thing is, I have my highest numbers that I’ve ever had.” Trump on the tragedy of not being able to run for a 3rd term. Actually, his approval ratings are now -19%, the lowest so far for his second term. He's either demented or gaslighting the public, or both.

If you like 70s jazz fusion like Return to Forever or Weather Report, you should really check out Tory Slusher's new album toryslusher.bandcamp.com/album/parall... Just pick a tune at random, they are all good! #MusicSky #Jazzfusion

My department is hiring: The Unit of Economic Analysis (UFAE) at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), an academic unit of the Barcelona School of Economics (BSE), invites applications for Assistant and Associate Professor positions. #EconSky Please see econjobmarket.org/positions/11...

Trump's approval ratings by state, as published in The Economist 19 Oct. 2025 www.economist.com/interactive/... This explains MTG's recent return to rational behavior. Will other Rs will follow suit?

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

I’m absolutely exhausted in the best possible way. I love us. We did it! #NoKings

📣 REMINDER to #PedoProtector Mike Johnson: #Epstein survivor Virginia Giuffre's posthumous bio, "Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice," drops TUES, OCT 21! SHARE! *Never forget survivors!* #ReleaseTheTrumpEpstenFiles 🧾 www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/712958...

Young Dem are wearing frog suits, supporting the rights of Palestinians not to get starved, against zip tie'ing kids together, trying to prevent health insurance rates from exploding. Meanwhile: Vance: "kids will be kids" Johnson: "can't say, not in my lane" Trump: ???? WTF..... zzzz

Frank Marino is a great guitarist, and a pretty damn good vocalist, too. Saw him live 3 or 4 times in the '70s. Here's a really great version of an old tune. #Musicsky #Guitar youtu.be/qe3KkcJnt4Y?...

The House is embarrassing when it's in session, too. Actually, the whole Govt, all 3 branches, ....

One of Trump's plays for the Nobel Peace Prize. At the time, the helicopters seemed like exaggeration, but it did happen. youtu.be/04zDCo31ON8?...
