Always remember that listening to music can be the entire activity. Put on headphones. Blast it through speakers. Close your eyes and just listen.
Listening to music is not a background activity. It can be the entire journey, and it's worth the time.

At this point abolishing ICE and reforming the Supreme Court have to be non-negotiables for every 2028 Dem.

But Bennet and Hick spent so much time approving all his nominees! Surely he would reward them with Space Command! (Plz get me all new senators and don't let Bennet become gov.)
BREAKING: President Trump will announce Space Command will move from Colorado to Alabama, reversing a Biden-era decision, an AP source says.

Donald Trump is not a political story, it’s a crime story. And understanding him does not depend on political science, but psychology.

Trump and Republicans in Congress are trying to pull off one of the biggest heists in U.S. history.
The so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” is robbery, plain and simple.
And it’s being committed by the billionaire class and the politicians they put into office.

Why republicans try to make this dramatic and draw it out, is beyond me! They’ve not been able to stand for the PEOPLE that put them in office ever since the Cult leader entered the signal chat. Yes, we know what you all will do! Just do it and be done! The antics are played out.

Establishment Democrats are much more concerned about holding onto their billionaire donors than losing the base because they have MAGA as a counterbalance.
“Vote Blue No Matter Who” is a cudgel, but you’ll notice it doesn’t hold once a Leftist gets on the ballot. This must be instructive.

The pitch for Frontier Valley, a 512-acre waterfront complex that combines dense residential buildings with space to launch drones and rockets, also includes a plea to President Trump.
