NEW: Victor Rosario spent 32 years behind bars for a crime he says he did not commit before a judge overturned his convictions. More than a decade after his release, he returned to MCI Norfolk as a free man. There, he shared a walk—and a message of hope—with his old friends.

My favorite weird fact about Jack Kevorkian is that he was also a jazz musician and put out an album called "A Very Still Life."

Do you get a farmshare?

Do you, like me, think some vegetables are gross?

Or maybe you've got more than you can use?

Find somewhere to donate those veggies!

Like, say, the Woo Fridges.

If you haven't listened to "The Disintegration Loops" yet, you're missing out. Basically everything he releases for me is an event ever since I tripped up on it.
"So I went downstairs and turned on 'The Disintegration Loops' very loud. We sat there in lawn chairs and listened and watched the end of the world."

The Avett Brothers put out an album with Mike Patton and it is about as weird as you'd expect a mainstream alt-country act working with a cult musician would be, and there are going to be a lot of confused normies as a result.

The darkest part of this is how easy it is to prey on people in grief. There was a long time, for a lot of reasons, where I would have given nearly anything to get my mother back instead of the Alzheimer's-ridden shell of her last decade+ of life.

That's who they're preying on.
