RIP The Collossus himself, Sonny Rollins. I had the honor of meeting him and getting to watch him record live in the studio many years back. He was a great talent — and a warm, friendly, tender human being. As a friend likes to say, “we are fewer.” Xoxo

Hearing Lindsey Graham talking about Iwo Jima, I couldn’t help but remember some Shakespeare: “For he made me mad, To see him smile so brisk and smell so sweet, And talk so like a waiting gentlewoman Of guns, and drums, and wounds.. God save the mark..” Hotspur, Henry IV, Pt 1

On the whole, I think AI is pretty shitty, especially with respect to music and writing…but I have to confess a grudging appreciation for it in the service of quick sight gags to support horrible dad jokes. I actually think that’s all it’s good for. 🤣

There’s hope, folks. My son, who is 11, corrected his twentysomething teacher the other day. The teacher referred to a Justin Bieber song as an “oldie.” My boy shot back, “That’s not an oldie. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF WILSON PICKETT???” I think my work is done. ❤️

RIP Amos Poe. Brilliant filmmaker. Beautiful human being. And a true friend to me, when things were bad. As a friend says, “we are fewer.” ❤️❤️❤️

Bob Dylan thinks that Jimmy Webb’s “Wichita Lineman” is “the best song ever written.” I’ve heard about it, but I’d never listened to it. Today I finally did… 1st time: Oh wow, that’s pretty.” 2nd: “Wait, WHAT?” 3rd: In the car, pulled over and wept. I’m thinking Bob’s right. What a song. ❤️❤️❤️

This is a civil war. Lincoln had McClellan, Hooker and Pope. He junked them for Grant, Sherman and Sheridan We have Schumer, Durbin and Cortez Masto in our leadership. Act Blue, lose my fucking number until we're clean of generals who can't fight or discipline the troops. No cash for this shit.

To everyone in Red Country crying about how “now I’ll never come to New York!!”, hear this: We have museums, Jazz, and garlic here. You want Giant M and M signs, people in costumes in Times Square. We hate all that crap. That’s for you. You don’t know how to WALK here. Just sayin’!

When I was 7, I thought Johnny Hooker and Henry Gondorff were the coolest guys on earth. 50 years later, I still do. RIP, Bob. ❤️

Advice for the American left: fight to freaking WIN. “If you let yourself be defeated by them because you are too fair to hit back the same way they hit at you” soon there’ll be no ways of fighting BUT theirs. Said brilliantly in this film: youtu.be/sDzDnyFA58E

Imagine telling a second grader you can’t give them lunch because Jeff Bezos wants another plane. Or Elon Musk wants to live on Mars. Or some scumbag CEO wants a bigger pool. I hate what this freaking place has become.

As horrific as this is, I find myself equally horrified by all the OTHER shit they’ll get away with while we’re (rightly) paying *attention* to this 😞

Earlier, I did a set of calf-raises while I was blending my spinach smoothie, and I thought, “I’m one of THOSE assholes now..” 🤣🤣
