This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

**Lights Out Alert Sunday & Monday Nights** Birdcast is estimating 300-400 million birds will be in flight.
From meteorologist Eric Snitil

**Lights Out Alert Sunday & Monday Nights**

"Heads up birders, I would not be surprised if the biggest bird migration night of the year happens over the next 2 nights. Birdcast is estimating 300-400 million birds will be in flight. That is a lot, but the pattern could not be better for migratory birds. A massive area of high pressure will turn the low level winds from the northeast to the southwest across most of the US. The last time we had anything similar to this in the fall was early October last year when a record 1.25 billion birds were in flight. I doubt we get to that level, but I suspect the number will top 500 million especially Monday night which looks to be the bigger of the two nights. You can help by turning off those outdoor lights on big migration nights, and the next 2 nights is about as big as it gets."

🚨 BEWARE of VoteSafe.org 🚨 While it bills itself as a “safe” way to register to vote, it is actually a digital surveillance machine created by Elon Musk’s super PAC.

@andrewhickey.500songs.com Hello! A friend who loves your podcast but isn't on Bluesky asked me to pass along that Trout Mask Replica does seem to be available on Bandcamp, at least here in the US.

@levistahl.bsky.social Perhaps you will feel my pain. On Sunday afternoon I have two options. An amazing chamber music concert at a local venue or a screening of Once Upon a Time in the West in a real movie theater. I had to pick one. Any guesses?

Good morning TX, from the sunny 😎 coastal 🏖️ beaches off the Obama Coast (formerly known as the Pacific 🤭) There are shenanigans happening to our friends in Texas — over a 1 Mil voters have been suspended, so if you’re from Texas, I implore you to check your registration and fix that shit!

If you're one of the people who had their voter registration suspended, there's still time to fix it.

Dolly said NO to elvis recording I Will Always Love You bc he wanted to take half ownership of the song. She later said Yes to Whitney and not only is the rest history, Dolly gave the royalties she made from that back to the Black community voluntarily. @chantalalive.blacksky.app

@500songspodcast.bsky.social listened to part 1 of "Dazed and Confused." It was a great episode, with unimaginable amounts of information and a lot of "easter eggs," like just mentioning someone's first name and then they turn out to be really famous. Very fun stuff even if you're not a big Zep fan.

I think @govandybeshear.bsky.social should just appoint a Dem to fill McConnell’s seat. It would force proof of life, and the state law that stripped him of that power should be challenged in court. I’m sure Thune would refuse to seat the appointee, but I think it’s a fight worth having. BE BOLD!
