If anyone is still wondering why people like me felt Trump deserved zero credit for the ceasefire, here is your reason. Like everything else Trump claims, it was never real.

#MAGA = "Make Argentina Great Again."
"We love you and support you — but your suggestion to buy beef from Argentina to stabilize beef prices would be an absolute betrayal to the American cattle rancher," a beef producer wrote on X."
Economic collapse couldn't happen to a more deserving people.

I keep hearing talk about a recession/stock market downturn next year. It's imminent, folks. The stock market collapse is going to be epic. They're milking you for every last penny before pulling the plug. (Full disclosure: I pulled all my money out about three weeks ago.)

Today's From The Archives is "Time Traveler" performed at a backyard birthday party for our good friend Steve. This is from April 1, 2017. Video quality = not great. The performance is fun, though. 😅 youtu.be/jj4zHH8Ibds?...

The GOP rhetoric in the last few days has really convinced me I need to attend.
If Republicans are going to label you a terrorist for peacefully protesting Trump's failing presidency, abuses of power, and treatment of blue America as an enemy nation, let's turn out in even bigger numbers.

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump
As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

I frequently say you don't need to protest. You don't! There are a thousand other ways to push back on fascism if protesting doesn't feel comfortable or safe for you!
But if you CAN go, this 10/18 #NoKings thing is really a key protest to participate in. Be part of it, friends.

I have a zero AI policy. Do not contact me if you use AI art. I will not work with or support games, companies & etc who use it.
No this isn’t a “I hate ai because it’s cool too” post. This is an I’m an artist, environmentalists, and I’ll use my own brain, post. I prefer humans and real art.

I don't play video games as much as I used to, but when I do it's almost always tower defense. The Kingdom Rush series is a personal fave, so I've been eagerly awaiting this one. Finally! I'll see you on the battlefield...

Today's "From The Archives" goes back to almost the very beginning of the band. We'd been a group for just over a year when we played this gig at the now-defunct Iberian Rooster in DTSP. The song is one of my early faves (we never play it anymore), and we've been chasing these visuals ever since...

I have no sense of how this played to normal, non-politics obsessed Americans. I assume the MAGA base LOVED the fact-free performative anger. What about the rest of the country? Because this was gross, folks. Just slurping her boss repeatedly. I look forward to her trial.
She is not doing well
Schiff: This is supposed to be an oversight hearing when dozens of prosecutors have been fired simply because they worked on cases investigating the former president.
Bondi: What about the fires in California? Are the riots in LA serious?

Show announcement STILL coming soon - but feel free to pencil us in for Dec. 6 at a site that has yet to be named. (We know where it is!) In the meantime, here's more video "From The Archives," this time going back to July 2018 (when we were still a four-piece without a bass player). More to come...

Just got back from my MedBed appointment. The Trump Medical ID card worked as advertised! I feel 20 years younger. They said it's still extremely limited access, but hopefully the rest of the #MAGA faithful will soon get a chance to experience the future of medicine.

Show announcement coming soon! This week, we're posting clips from the archives, starting with this run through "Ceddy's Song" at Flying Boat Brewery (which no longer exists). We were still a six-piece then, but parted ways with the sax because it was an awkward fit. Ryan the sax player is awesome!

I just want Phish Mexico to be here because it is the only vacation I have ever in my life actually relaxed on. It's so good. You just get to sit with your friends and do stuff. And then do your favorite thing every night. And you can get 4am shower cheeseburgers and swim in the ocean mid show.
