My Bluesky intro post. A refugee from the zuckerverse. Giving this Bluesky thing a go & hope it never becomes enshittified. Future posts tbd on obscure but awesome new music drops, vinyl finds, pop-culture; and science! Sometimes politics & religion from a non-believing left perspective. etcetera

Vinyl recommendation post: Latest from Black Doldrums "In Limerence" from 2024. One of my fav #gothic #postpunk albums of last year, alongside Nurnberg's "Adkaz". Finally was able to snag the physical from Fuzzclub's membership program. Truly one not to be missed.

Short clip from tonight's performance in Tampa by THE DOLLYROTS. Early all ages show. Lots of kids in attendance with their #punkrock parents. This was the closing song. They're really into audience participation obviously

A highly accurate & rather obvious summary of the modern American political system: the Democratic Party is in reality the Conservative party in all but name. Its practice of strict seniority & super-delegates ensures no left progressivism will ever take over, by design

There is a word, among others, for people like Schumer and the other Dems who voted the way they did today: QUISLING. They're all quislings. Primary every one

In a total betrayal of their constituents and our democracy, 10 Democrats just voted with Senate Republicans to give Trump and Musk a blank check to continue their coup. @schumer.senate.gov led Democrats to this total surrender. We need strong leadership, not cowards who cave at any GOP pressure.
Breaking — 10 Senate Democrats voted with Republicans to advance their funding bill, including:
Catherine Cortez Masto
Dick Durbin
John Fetterman
Kirsten Gillibrand
Maggie Hassan
Angus King
Gary Peters
Brian Schatz
Chuck Schumer

Unfortunately my Senator is a far-right Republican but I did contact him about this, just to make another voice heard. But if you're a US citizen and have a Democratic Senator, it might make a difference
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
