"If Trump is still alive on January 20, 2029, the chances of him not using the plane after his presidency ends are roughly equivalent to Mark Zuckerberg having more than three non-AI friends."

Time for me to pull out my old copy of “Where the Sidewalk Ends” and remind myself that I wasn’t always a jaded “adult.” Maybe I can even conjure up some of that magnificent childhood magic we all had at one point.

"The saints of our godless era are the beloved writer-illustrators of rhyming children’s books. To say anything bad about them is tantamount to blasphemy. It’s almost like these works were handed down to Moses on Mount Sinai, who immediately passed them off to the editors at Harper Row."

#1 Joy Division-Love Wil Tear Us Apart #OutOfOrder As large as they've loomed in the years since, "Closer" was their second and final album. New Order took things in a different direction. @dindin6.bsky.social @pewtergod.bsky.social @palehorse.bsky.social @auberon.bsky.social @walks30.bsky.social

Our top band for 1980 had their career cut short by the death by suicide of their vocalist. Everybody knew he was in trouble but finally couldn't guard him to save him. @dcboy.bsky.social @paulheardartist.bsky.social @milesgeffin.bsky.social @jerryn13.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuuO...

#2 The Clash-London Calling #OutOfOrder Yes, Guns of Brixton and others on this album are strong contenders but in the context of the time the title track is undeniable. @dcboy.bsky.social @derrylm.bsky.social @beefreeferlives.bsky.social @evodaily.bsky.social @sleepingbagowire.bsky.social

Our #2 artists styled themselves "the Only Band that Matters". Fortunately, they weren't as self-serious as a certain other contemporary band. @milesgeffin.bsky.social @arterialz.bsky.social @paulheardartist.bsky.social @jerryn13.bsky.social @jmareditor.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC2W...

Our #3 band went from being an "arty" NYC band to national acclaim/vast sales. Their 1980 album was a masterpiece that still sounds fresh today. @milesgeffin.bsky.social @paulheardartist.bsky.social @derrylm.bsky.social @dcboy.bsky.social @sleepingbagowire.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGsH...

#4 The Pretenders-Mystery Achievement #OutOfOrder Sadly, whenever I write about the Pretenders I can't help but wonder what might have been. Chrissie has kept rocking but never eclipsed the first two records. @jmareditor.bsky.social @nixanadoo.com @paulette7.bsky.social @cherylbluewave.bsky.social

#5 AC/DC-You Shook Me All Night Long #OutOfOrder If this band stands for anything it's tradition; the tradition of sex, and drugs, and rock and roll. I'm still in favor of all that! @goodifitgoes.bsky.social @milesgeffin.bsky.social @susieb.bsky.social @x03v.bsky.social @paulette7.bsky.social

Our #6 band were one of the defining punk American bands. @milesgeffin.bsky.social @paulheardartist.bsky.social @pewtergod.bsky.social @x03v.bsky.social @evodaily.bsky.social @auberon.bsky.social @jerryn13.bsky.social @beefreeferlives.bsky.social @dcboy.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Tlj...

Our #8 artist is scheduled to take his final bow as a performer after some health struggles but in 1980 he was an innovator of metal. @liscopenhagen.bsky.social @x03v.bsky.social @milesgeffin.bsky.social @palehorse.bsky.social @evodaily.bsky.social @dcboy.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMDF...

In this morning's ramble, which I recorded yesterday afternoon, I share my thoughts on the new Pope, Leo XIV. TL;DR: I approve.

ACTION ITEM: @thefive8.bsky.social karaoke tonight takes aim at MAGA Nazi snowflake Stephen Miller. Like all nosferatu, Miller gets hot under the collar when he's exposed to sunlight. We're going to ask everyone to RT the hell out it when it drops. #StephenMillerLameIs #ShameStephenMiller

This week on #OutOfOrder we review the year 1980. Should be interesting as the start of GenX. here's a good one to remind you! @paulheardartist.bsky.social @milesgeffin.bsky.social @pewtergod.bsky.social @evodaily.bsky.social @jmareditor.bsky.social @dcboy.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xZm...
