Love the folks who use Bsky as a kind of group chat. Happy Friday, y’all!

Exactly! And the @democrats.org wonder why we are disenchanted…

I'm going to say… because @democrats.org work for the same corporate overlords? That the most they are going to promise is “a return to status quo” 🤔

🙌 Wham Bam Thank you Jamz (for the reminder)

These two posts document a wonderful Sunday afternoon in ATL and I will definitely be attending the next Underscore winners recital from Bent Frequency in the future…

Thoughts on Reed aside, this obituary is amazing!

Thanks for playing, everyone, we have a winner…

Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining.

“The reason for the season”

I don't know about y'all, but I'm getting really tired of judges ruling that the Constitution is unconstitutional.

The internet is for music recommendations: Really great power pop from Oakland via @tylerwilcox.bsky.social’s great live music blog “Doom and Gloom.” otoliths.bandcamp.com/album/lithos

There was famously an Atlanta rugby squad who loved Zevon and all showed up at his concerts. If any of y'all are out there, this would look great on yer walls…

They should do a re-boot of the OG Star Trek where all the crew members stare into their tri-corders all the time and Kirk and Spock talk about their Wordle scores…

Though she grew up in Pittsburgh, she was born in the Edgewood neighborhood of Atlanta. My buddy Jeff Crompton found the address of her childhood home and erected a marker. HBD, Mary Lou Williams, a 🧵…

Many people are saying this…

This, like the Live Music Archive, is a mitzvah. cc @tylerwilcox.bsky.social

4. Never let your Audrey-loving daughter dress up like Holly Golightly or risk hearing a neighbor say, “Who let their daughter dress up as a hooker?” 😂

Possibly the only band that can play both the Southern Surf Stomp and Big Ears Festival…

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

We will always be the nation that elected trump twice and he will always be the man who allowed the U.S. to get its ass kicked in a war against ****Iran*******

With Ted gone, the number of creative and interesting rich guys might be back down to zero.

starting to wonder who this is aimed at because the AOCs all speak in very everyday language while the third way crew sounds like a private facebook group for 17 people

Reasons to be cheerful…

Aw, man. The soul of Atlanta, right there… (you know, in good and bad ways, it’s complicated)

And we’re building this guy an arch! #smdh

My daughter made me drive her to school every day of middle school listening to “In the Aeroplane…” so “King of Carrot Flowers” is indelibly etched on my brain. 😀

Is there a Polymarket on whether MARTA will get their shit together and start charging again before the World Cup? 🤔

This. 👇

Gotta love the Wordlebot. It trash talks your game and then always shows it got the answer in a VERY improbable 3 guesses! 🙄

New Acme spokesmammal just dropped…

We didn’t speak up when they started with the $18 sandwiches…

I wonder what the inaugural recipient of the FIFA Peace Price would say about this? 🤔

This burger is “Ready for the House,” @mgoldman-atl.bsky.social

Today, in “keep on doing”… ♥️

I put on the hypnotic, droney album “The Heat Warps” by Modern Nature last night and my wife went, annoyed: “What is this?” I felt like that the first time I listened to it, then I began to crave its spell…

Happy Birthday to the 👑 and 🐐. Was thrilled to hear him play at the Atlanta Jazz Fest a few years back…

Sting busy scribbling lyrics… (If you have never been to New Orleans… go!)

happy may day! every right you have as a worker was written in blood ❤️

I'm just glad the Constitution isn't alive to see this

If there’s any hope of saving democracy in my lifetime, Democrats need to punch first instead of just punching back. Make Republicans pay for gutting Voting Rights Act.

America is a one party system, but in typical American extravagance, we have two of them
