Yes, there was beauty and power in the vampires' music. That was intentional. Maybe the whole vampire bit was a metaphor about the commercialization of folk musics -- literally sucking the blood from them.

It’s the difference between “sell my soul to be really good at the blues” and ”the devil wants to play the blues as good as I do.” That is significant.

That sequence and movie was not about a stereotypical “fighting with the Devil” view of the blues. It was about the role of the musician in worldwide cultures to transmit history and spirituality. The vampires wanted to tap into that power. The blues is not all “crossroads/sell my soul” mythology.

A collapsed sewer line, about 8 miles from the White House, pumped 368 Olympic-sized swimming pools worth of wastewater into the Potomac. Repairs could take longer than previously expected.

I basically can’t drive thru our little downtown for the foreseeable future despite major roads passing there bc twice in the last week they lobbed tear gas at protesters (which def also affected cars driving by). Tear gas is an abortifacient and I’m pregnant w twins.
Thanks, I feel protected now!

Are any politicians running on a platform of finally banning teargas? Like, that shit is banned for use in warfare but it seems like everyone is okay with it being lobbed at citizens on a regular basis.
