As of today, the much more reasonably priced paperback of Musical Intimacy is out in the world. Available from the publisher's site below, but I bet your favorite local, indie bookstore could order it for you!

If Bad Bunny can cover the history of Puerto Rico, colonialism, transatlantic slavery, hemispheric consciousness, as well as contemporary life and politics in under 14 minutes, you can do your 15- or 20-minute conference presentation with time to spare.

In Response to Trump’s Tasteless Meme, We Put His Face on the Body of a Known Rapist and Pedophile
It’s a sad state of affairs that we’ve all just gotten used to childish, wildly inappropriate behavior from our own president. He shares AI slop, calls reporters pigs, says a million things a day…

#Iowa women! Time for a sex strike. Seriously. This is not merely about abortion, but health care for women, from preventive care to oncology care. I've never been in a so-called "developed" nation where women's "down there" (sic!!) health is so ostracized. And women's health is community health!
Iowa Republicans proposed a bill to criminalize abortion. If the bill passes, someone getting an abortion could be charged with a felony.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.
