In the interval of our gig last night I looked at my phone and saw the news that Sly Stone had died. Sang a quick chorus of Family Affair and felt thankful for the music ❤️

Crossfire? That line of riot police stood there totally unopposed. The mere fact that the reporter was in front of them shows that there was no crossfire. What the fuck is the Guardian playing at?

sending 500 marines to a county of nearly 10 million people to stand around holding their dicks with nowhere to sleep is not actually the sign of a successful declaration of martial law

When I was a kid, in 1969, someone gave me a stack of 45s, and one of the ones I played the most was Sly & The Family Stone’s ‘Stand!’. Powerful stuff for a a 9 year old skinny pale kid with freckles, I loved that batch of yellow-printed vinyls way beyond even faved Beatles’ cut green apple ones.

We're in another of those holding 2 things in r mind at once moments so common under Trumpism: Yes, this is meant to distract from Trumps spat with the lawless druggie he put in charge of the civil service & his increasingly unpopular budget bill. But it's also super important in itself. Both true.

There is no fucking reason for any of this shit. Nobody was threatened by immigrants. They were working for a living like the rest of us, not hurting anybody. The whole thing is BULLSHIT. Pure fear-mongering BULLSHIT. Lies intended to promote a fascist dictatorship.
