Here's what 40 planted cloves of Phillips garlic looks like. Boring looking now, for sure, but come spring/summer they're going to be gorgeous. Penobscot River is just off picture to the left.

Dave Ball of Soft Cell passed away 2 days ago at age 66. Soft Cell arrived on the scene when I was 16/17. Followed them for years and their first 3 albums/EP/remix album still get a lot of play on my turntable. SC was more than Tainted Love.

Almost nobody my age or younger has a real shot at owning a home.
We need to ban hedge funds and private equity from buying homes, restore federal support for building housing, and expand VA-style home loans so working people can actually afford to own where they live.

My friend in CT, Mike Geary, sent me this video his 2 year old grandson (Kayson) who "ran" 3 stop signs in his little battery car. Kayson, trying to deflect, points out that his younger brother is eating grass. Get ready to smile. Cuteness overload ahead!

My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country.
I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

We DO have judges who still follow the law instead of breaking it. This is wicked awesome and worth the 20 minutes. If you do the crime, be prepared to do the time.
