All the Fauci stuff is a modern day version of the POW/MIA stuff after Vietnam - a way to try to rewrite the history of a huge failure of conservative ideology to be instead a story about how liberals and foreigners stabbed us in the back.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice In Chains.

I've looked in the help section, but I can't find an answer. How can I see what post I have made that someone responded to? I'll get a notification that someone has responded to something I've posted, but I can't see what they're responding to.

I went to see Todd Rundgren tonight for the first time in 48 years. He said at one point (rough paraphrase), "I really appreciate you coming out tonight. You may not have heard, but there's a war still on and prices keep going up. It's very flattering that you've chosen... 1/

There are times when I think that Clarence Thomas is an almost Shakespearean figure, filled with with self-hatred and self-doubt because of his Black skin in a white world, and other times where I think he's just a lazy MFer looking for his next private jet trip.

#musicsky #françoisehardy #frenchpop #yeye I love Françoise Hardy's Vogue-era recordings from 1962-1968 or so. I'd like to hear your recommendations for her work after that era. Thanks!

#MusicSky Today is Michael Stipe's 66th birthday. Here's a clip from a show I saw at Meredith College back in 1985. The temperature was still in the low 90s F (mid-30s C). It captures my favorite band in their youthful glory. R.E.M. - Life And How To Live It www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-TA...

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

My town elected three Democrats yesterday to the town board. That's the first time in the 32 years I lived here that there has been a Democratic majority on the board.

I guess I must have offended some guy posting here as @mikelowery1911.bsky.social‬ because he posted that class war > gender war, which would seem to indicate that working-class men never raped working-class women, or that capitalism predated rape. My comment didn't show up.
