#TheTenX5 7. "Rill Rill" by Sleigh Bells (2010)
I don't know how many times I've listened to the radio and heard a DJ just play this before or after playing "Can You Get To That" — it's a lot in recent years — but pretty much every time it works on me like gangbusters. Recycling is cool, actually!

#TheTenX5 Day 6. "Better Sit Down Boy" by Confidence Man (2017)
I don't know if this is my very favorite ConMan song but it *is* kind of the ideal form of a ConMan song to me. I also love the video, love any video that feels like it's beamed in from another universe's public access channel.

#TheTenX5 Day 5. "Room Temperature" by Faye Webster (2019)
This was my introduction to Faye Webster and it gave a great first impression. I just stumbled across this song rife with ennui and the sense that it's nice outside and you're going nowhere in August 2020 and it really resonated. Dunno why!

#TheTenX5 Day 4. "Electric Lady" by Janelle Monae (ft. Solange) (2013)
The actual awful choice I have to make re: Janelle Monae is which non-single song I vote for down the road. Singles-wise, this is my favorite one of my favorite album she's put out. Effortlessly cool!

#TheTenX5 Day 3. "Blockbuster Night Part 1" by Run the Jewels (2014)
"I Jake the Snake 'em, DDT 'em in mausoleums" is maybe my favorite wrestling reference in a rap song and there are about eight million of those so I figure the song it's on ought to make my list.

#TheTenX5 Day 2. "Love On Top" by Beyonce (2011)
In 2019 I got breakfast at a cafe in Baltimore and they had the radio on. The DJ played "Love on Top," then kept it on repeat during an "upcoming community events" air break, and then just played it in full *again* after he was done talking. Perfect.

A wonderful slice-of-life sketch Catherine wrote herself. The director did not end the sketch at the right time, so Catherine had to keep going, slowly sinking down the door and to the floor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwcB...

TOM HOMAN: “We’re going to create a database where those people that are arrested for interference, impeding and assault, we’re going to make them famous. We’re going to put their face on TV. We’re going to let their employers, in their neighborhoods, in their schools, know who these people are.”

If you're planning on going to the Torrent game tonight and you've got a higher risk profile (i.e., if you're brown), be extremely vigilant.

Let me tell y'all about guys like Newsom, because we learned the hard way in Dallas.
Eric Johnson was a respected Democratic state rep when he was elected mayor in 2019. This made sense, as Dallas is deep blue. Johnson's tenure began normally.
But then he started hanging out with Republicans. 🧵
