Walked into two record stores this afternoon in London. BOTH had artists/bands sound checking in their basements. Guess I’m 2/2, one more and it’s a trend.
Indigo d’Souza @ Rough Trade
Ratboys @ Third Man Records
And both sounded great.

Full beaver moon. Really rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it
Such a randomly decrepit but also beautiful bridge and industrial ruins.

This was one of my motivations to go to grad school for journalism. I couldn't believe we got swiftboated out of rejecting these liars.
This NYT Obit of VP Cheney mentions something that seems impossible in retrospect: That he and GWB were re-elected *after* it was proved there were no WMDs in Iraq.

ICE/CBP is active in Lincoln Park right now, has been spotted near Damen/Clybourn at Costco + Jewel (this is in addition to a morning abduction reported at Costco earlier).
People believe grocery delivery drivers are being targeted and are asking folks to alert other vulnerable workers as well.

The feed is every bit as inhumane and ridiculous as I suspected it would be one year after Election Day last year.

The king loves starting fires and if he has his way, riots.
In a shocking reversal, Trump said federal food benefits won’t be distributed during the shutdown, despite a court order

Rest in Peace, Donna. When I was at the Auditorium Theatre Saturday night, I couldn't help but think of what it would've been like in the mid-'70s, when the Dead played there. Donna brought incredible energy and high vibes with her vocals, especially '76-78. archive.org/details/gd76...

Out on patrol. ICE very active on the far North Side including Edgewater and Lincoln Square. Multiple abductions. Vulnerable folks should get off the street if they can. Street vendors should be bought out, landscapers warned. If you’re in Chicago and you’re not ICE watch trained, pls get trained.

Kmet (a lefty, apparently) taking a pitch from Caleb and throwing a dart to Odunze is not Ben Johnson’s “typical bag of tricks” but I’ll take it!
