Just so everyone knows, when I say "both parties" I'm specifically not saying "both sides."
In the US, both parties are on the same side. Right vs. Left is not Dem vs. Rep. I say "both parties" because I am a leftist. Please do not confuse this with me saying "both sides" as I am not a centrist.

I have seen @tmbg.bsky.social enough times that I'm uncertain of the exact number of times. (Just about every time they've played St. Louis for the last 25 years) Tonight's show was genuinely amazing! GO SEE THEM!

The first guitar I ever bought for myself was a Danelectro Hodad, and I've been obsessed with the brand since. It's a real problem because the brand has gone through different iterations, different ownership, and different results, but I will always try to justify selling an organ to get a new Dano!

Ok, I was a bad son and didn't call my mom on her birthday. Realizing my mistake, I called to apologize and ask how her day went. She says: "It was great! I was helping renovate a homeless shelter!"
Point is: Take time to get off social media, call your mom, and then go build your community.

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids.
Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

As a Jurassic Park fan, let's be honest:
OG is awesome
2 is fine
3 is crap
4 is nostalgia
5 is crap
6 is a hysterical pile of embarrassing bullshit
Why are a bunch of us (myself included) going to watch "Rebirth"?

When I was young lad, I found out a classmate of mine was scabbing during the grocery strike, and I punched him in the face. I stand by that. Fuck you, Andrew! Wherever you are.

I was trying to be involved in the Pacers game, but I'm tripping balls. Brunson's head looks like Sim City, and outside is too flat for my dog to poop on.

How did they manage to make the Monaco GP even worse? I think this is the shittiest race I've seen, and I'm including that time I watched it rain in Belgium for 4 hours.
