I was a chump yesterday and actually started watching the RFK jr-Kid Rock celebration of stink and rot but only got 10 seconds in and started throwing up uncontrollably. I could not stop throwing up and still can’t. I’m doing it now. Excuse me.

U2 surprise released an EP today with six new protest songs. It opens with a number about Renee Good and it's ... not bad! It would be wild if they end up playing First Avenue like the Boss.

kid rock has died on the way back to his collapsing swamp trailer. his jet boat ramped up & over a sleeping alligator and flew directly into a grove of cypress trees, where his liquor-and-gasoline-drenched body was entirely consumed by flames
