“Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;"

We've only been aware of Trump's racism since a 1973 article about his real estate company refusing the rent apartments to black people, the first ever mention of his name in the NYT. That's why his Obama meme comes as a total shock. Who knew?

You're so right. Girl Groups, Motown, Brill Building, Wrecking Crew... THAT'S the era classic rock rescued us from? I mean, come the fuck on!!!
I am a voice crying in the wilderness as a zealot for the ‘60s girl groups. It’s probably the only time in the 20th century that women, many of color, ruled the pop music charts. It’s no mistake that the act with the most #1 singles after The Beatles was The Supremes.

The mob doesn't give a shit about the opinions of someone who told a child rapist, "Pussy is, indeed, low carb."
“.. Weiss insists she does not want to cut ties with Attia over his links to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and sees it as giving in to the mob.”

On this day in 1962 (February 2nd), The Beatles performed their first professionally organised gig outside of Liverpool at Manchester’s Oasis Club.

They opened with “The Hippy Hippy Shake”, and went on to perform a set list that included songs such as “Sweet Little Sixteen” and “Like Dreamers Do”.
