Taking a break from non stop listening to CONFESSION II for a relisten of....ARTPOP I dunno. I wanted to hear "Swine" and "Sexx Dreams"

What kompromat did they decide to action against Fetterless to get him to switch?

The AI doomsdayers from the actual companies and now all the new theft and just how it still SUCKS - these GOP AI commercials have no rizz, esp the ones Vivek is deploying against Amy Acton - honestly, let's just unplug it all. It's garbage.

When you realize you MUST alter the opening sequence of poems in your manuscript and then do the math on the fees for all the pending submissions you know are going direct to DECLINED 💀

I haven't read the X-universe monthlies since Krakoa was shuttered, but I will add that while Krakoa engaged a lot of what works best for X-Men comics, it also fell into what ruins the comics: too many ongoing titles

I've already started plotting just how GAY I'm gonna be.

And Miller/ Mullen/ Vought/ Trump/ Bannon/ Hassett, they understand it and use it to their advantage. This birth tourist crap is the most recent example. See also the phrase "biological sex" (wtf?) and that dimwit pizza barstool fool's comment about Mayor Mamdani. DELUSIONS.

I often wonder at all the articles and essays about R and MAGA voters...the surprise certain people have that they vote the way they do...and I realize that way too many people don't want to accept how awful most people are. Whether warped by age and or algo, just plain dumb, it is what it is.

Listen, only 3 of them voting AGAINST birthright citizenship was not part of the Heritage/Prjt25 plan. F them.

She's creating with intention, purpose, and joy again, even from her deep sadness and loss. We've not been this blessed since the first Confessions, maybe even Ray of Light!

between her studio albums. Crazy that 44 years into her tenure, this will only be her 15th album/collection of songs. I feel like other artists who've only been around 15 years have put out more...but at what cost to quality. Anyway, I'll be a mess all weekend. Dancing around my living room.

Because there's not much Madonna traffic/community on Bluesky, I've not been here lately. I've been on IG where all the algo is giving me all M all day every day. Can't believe the release week - High Holy Mother New Album Week - has arrived, just over 7 years since Madame X, the longest gap

I don't have enough time left in my life to waste it on that NYT opinion drivel about "I'm gay not queer" like wtf keep on walkin' and live your life and call yourself whatever you want and leave the rest of us out of your nonsense mansplaining. Good grief.

Three weeks since, still can't believe this happened.

On George Michael's birthday, thinking about how amazing it was to be present for the peak years of Michael, Madonna, Prince, Janet, George, Whitney, Mariah, Celine, U2, all the superstars. (See also being around for the nadirs of GnR, INXS, Kylie, Paula, Jody, Beyonce, Nirvana, Y2K pop, etc.)

This new Chlöe + Timbaland album gives me fantastic late 90s Missy/Aliyah energy, but the songs are barely songs!

Fauci needs to sue this man into bankruptcy, if only to dissuade the other inveterate liars of this administration.

Any serious Democratic candidate for president must pledge to at minimum add at least four new justices in order to begin restoring integrity to the Supreme Court.
