Nothing against their music. It’s not my cup of tea. And I would bet that neither of them would cover one of my songs. But I love that they stand up for our country. I love that they don’t pander to the lowest common denominator of political fops just to cover their asses. That’s integrity.

music.youtube.com/watch?v=M21J... I heard this in high school on the UConn radio station. By the time si was doing my work study at the UConn radio station somebody had absconded with this vinyl. I still have never held a copy in my hands. Maybe some day. It’s like B-52s meets Renaldo and the Loaf.

Elderly Cat Woman as it appears in the graphic design book for which it was commissioned in the early oughts. I never did get a copy of that book. But the commission sent me down a fruitful path. #elderlycatwoman @elderlycatwoman

Newsom: In 2023, Californians contributed $83.1 billion more to the federal government than we received back. And for your viewers: that other state—Texas—took $71.1 billion more than it contributed to the federal government. California: $83 billion, contributor. Texas: taker.

Let’s just grant the possibility these people were going to illegally work in the U.S. for a few weeks. I don’t think you could find any normal human to defend this treatment as proportional. Strip searched, handcuffed, given expired food and dirty mattresses. We’re such a garbage country.

music.youtube.com/watch?v=eU55... I quit smoking eight years ago this month. I miss it all the time. Doctors don’t care how long ago you quit. They’re of almost no support. But this song keeps me going/not smoking. Singing along , it feels good to admit that I’d love a cigarette.

music.youtube.com/watch?v=aFMN... it took me years to track down a copy of this song. It was in regular “rotation” (there was no “rotation”) at WHUS when I was a listener in high school. I recently shared it with one of my art school professors. He replied by telling me of the geographic references.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.
