I truly think the BSA should dickslap Secretary Kegbreath with a lawsuit, as his raging homosexual panic continues, unchecked. "Genderless" affront to "Boy-friendly spaces" Admits girls; promotes diversity, equity, inclusion -- horrors!! (those must be VEWWY BAD THINGS) www.npr.org/2025/11/25/n...

Seems fair. Don't make the rich richer.

Record Store Day: Often a futile exercise in getting shut out, overspending anyway, & wondering if it really helps small stores, what with thin profit margins, costly LPs & major labels co-opting it. BUT I'm happy w/this dBpm/Wilco sampler, the only LP I had my local order, & the only copy they got.

The folks at Record Store Day have 177 new releases hitting shelves tomorrow for #RSDBlackFriday (shelves, in the real world). Here's a sample of what vinyl hounds will be seeking out. #music #RecordStoreDay #BlackFriday #vinyl

This. Here. The enablers should be strung up along with the entire corrupt regime.

The litcrit of the masses vs. Olivia Nuzzi (& her close circle of horribles) is LIT. ... I'm also reading Dante's 'Inferno' right now so damn right I know what a canto is, and isn't.

The two shooting victims from the W.Va. National Guard in D.C. are NOT dead. Despite several conflicting reports. And no one knows the shooter's political leanings. We do know that he was an Afghan immigrant, vetted and granted asylum by the Trump admin. in April of this year.

A pie chart for f--ks given

I'd word it "What happens on Main Street when ..." but you get the idea... The AI boom is a bubble waiting to burst, like the dot-com & housing market crashes before it - and promises financial ruin to those who have never made a penny from it.

Pete Hegseth's chest-thumping, manly-man "Only fit-not-fat war-fighter warriors allowed & no beardo weirdos, either" schtick ... and his makeup regimen, and now going after the freaking BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA (for crimes against Manhood?) has all the earmarks of some deep homosexual panic. Discuss.

yeah, no kidding la de da another day in hell

not surprised and boy I miss my VW diesel

Cruelty isn't really the norm, but it's creeping toward mainstream acceptance right now because choices aren't always morally directed and many people merely need permission. (Damn you, society!) Impressive piece by @rachelbitecofer.bsky.social

How MAGA imagined what the Trump-Mamdami meeting would look like

Neither was 'Harold & Kumar Go To Guanabo'

So yeah, @hyperallergic.com is the shit. Ganging up on and surrounding the big question that has no simple answer: hyperallergic.com/1058708/how-...

Get behind #RemovetheRegime - Mass mobilization in D.C. this week with rallies, Capitol visits to House & Senate offices; comedy & the Dropkick Murphys.

Reposting this gift link as the best analysis of the Bari Weiss situation (it's not just about her), all the winds of billionaire-backed change behind her ascent, and how major media got this way. Excellent article in the Defector: defector.com/bari-weiss-s...

Another win for the side of decency -- and public-interest journalism

Thinking of how much better off we'd be today if 11.22.63 hadn't happened, or 6.5.68, or if the Dodgers had stayed in Brooklyn ... Remembering JFK & the aftermath today via slightly twisted, maudlin country records collected on this LP, "The Ballad of JFK" - therecoup.com/2016/11/22/v...

"Grokipedia is not a 'Wikipedia competitor.' It is a fully robotic regurgitation machine designed to protect the ego of the world’s wealthiest man." And I still want the Heinlein estate to sue the shit out of him.

“I want their morale as low as possible, because a team with low morale is ineffective.” Meet the veteran who chases ICE on a scooter, patrols the streets of Baltimore to keep his neighbors safe, and makes federal agents uncomfortable.

On The Bulwark: "What if the Most Dangerous Man in the Administration Isn't Donald Trump?"

They’ve laid off so many people that the government is now getting its economic data from DoorDash.

Interview w/Todd Snider, August 2000 – rambling but open & honest; no bullshit. He was almost covered by Chris Gaines (Garth Brooks). Not included here: Todd also admitted "I know way too much about Bob Dylan." R.I.P. to a wonderful, original singer-songwriter. web.archive.org/web/20021220...

Wrote about Todd Snider, East Nashville and how the more things change, the more they change. www.dontrocktheinbox.com/something-go...

MISCONDUCT. By the DOJ. who the hell will prosecute them?

Show notes from Techtonic with Mark Hurst (sorry, dunno their bsky handles), airing RN on @wfmu.bsky.social -- these are on Elon Musk, one of three profiled on the theme 'How low can tech oligarchs go?' -- wfmu.org/playlists/sh...

How do we effect real change?? Here's the way. (swarming the Capitol, meeting the people of the resistance & seeing the Dropkick Murphys) Nov. 20-22 in D.C. - follow @cliffcashcomedy.bsky.social for updates www.removetheregime.com

Here @repyassansari.bsky.social says everything about the inept mendacity & gaslighting of Johnson & Trump while starving & taking healthcare from citizens during the shutdown. I've been stewing about it; so has she, closer to the rot in Washington -- have you? www.instagram.com/p/DQ8k3EqjSrP/

Cheers to @stephaniemiller.bsky.social riling up millions of MAGAts by going on Sean Hannity's radio & TV shows, bringing up Fox's non-coverage of Epstein Files emails & Trump's dementia... & showing how Hannity simply cannot understand a joke -- or real hero worship. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fpZ...

Though formally & finally there is a call for a vote on the goddamn Epstein Files on the House floor, this battle has always been about GOP Reps. scared to go on record either against Trump or condoning his moral crimes. Theirs is a party of cowards & whores. P.S. Adelita Grijalva is already a star.

Target's 'Smile mandate' and '10-4 rule' -- Seasonal hiring is down & shoppers are belt-tightening in this economy. I don't mind being asked if I need help finding anything ... should Target just sell 'You don't have to smile at me' shirts? Their associates don't wanna talk about their flair either.

Gotta say, I mainly read the new @theonion.com print edition for the ads.

the official line the media regurgitates to us, is a lie (for a while, now) they’d have us believe that progressive causes, and the people, don’t matter.

ain’t it the truth.

North Carolina! People in Raleigh are organizing against gerrymandering! There's a rally tomorrow!!!! Tuesday 10/21

will our media wake the fuck up??

Just waiting for ICE to profile & zip-tie Usha Vance.

Mexico & Canada Pow Wow, California, Washinton, Hawaii & Oregon formed alliances, NATO has talented critically thinking strategists, State Mayors & Lawyers push back & we all share information. Massive Protests Scare the Crap out of Fascists These Seperate & Combined Collaborations will end this.

dilemma: stay local, or head for a bigger city? wherever you are, @malcolmnance.bsky.social urges everyone to get out and hang banners of opposition on a highway overpass near you.

Nuremberg 2.0 might use this info.

Fox News is having a hard time spinning No Kings. This headline is a fucking mess.

That means Biden secured the release of 83% of all hostages — a fact you’d barely hear in the headlines. If anyone’s earned the title of “Peace President,” it’s #46 — not the guy bombing fishing boats in international waters and unleashing masked agents on Americans.

When it comes to Trump’s immigration policy, cruelty has always been the point, but anti-immigrant animus is now being paired with unprecedented funding, manpower, and technology.

It kills me that they keep screaming about fraud, waste, and abuse and then also keep blowing through tax dollars like Tony Montana with his giant pile of cocaine.

1/ Trump was never interested in the demanding task of running a country responsibly. He was only ever in it to avoid prosecution, glorify his own image, and make money for himself. And now, with his declining mental state, his minders occupy him with vanity projects while they run the country.

Show you MY papers? How about you show ME YOUR papers?! Oowwww tear gas, my eyes!! 😭
