Joseph Campbell & The Power of Myth is on Maryland Public Television now! You're welcome for helping plan your day. #PBS #BillMoyers #JosephCampbell

I took this a few days after the invasion of Ukraine. It's the George Washington Masonic National Memorial. Y'all might want to light it up again. #istandwithukraine #alexandriava

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there. The show must go on.

Also I want to take a moment to remind everyone (who isn’t an elected official) to take time to recharge your batteries. You don’t have to attend every city council meeting or protest. Find what centers you, then get back in the fight. This is a marathon, not a sprint.

Happy First Concert-versary to me! #music #hueylewisandthenews

It's very important that you tell someone in your life that might not know how cool the B-52s were. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hl_E...

Damn you #TCM! Putting Giant on at midnight. That's not right! #TCMMovieParty

"Do not lose hope", says @mariaressa.bsky.social to journalists who continue to report the truth even in the hard times of a corrupt government. "Collaborate, collaborate, collaborate. Reach across. Stand by your values." And most important: "Hold the line." www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtST...

WDE! #Auburn

He was in the first show on Broadway that I saw back in 1990. It was, appropriately enough, Jerome Robbins' Broadway. RIP.

The logic of the coup that is going on now. And how to resist it. snyder.substack.com/p/the-logic-...

I get why "Cult Of Personality" gets more attention (CM Punk absolutely helps) but some of us were there in 1988 when "Vivid" dropped and we bought the cassette and were like, this shit is great! "Funny Vibe" proof positive of that 😏 #LivingColour #Vivid #MusicSky

Today's album listen: @thelastdinnerparty.bsky.social #vinyl #thelastdinnerparty

The whole audience screaming “A minor” has me CACKLINGGGG! I know Aubrey is in the middle of his room HYPERVENTILATINGGG 🥴😭😭

You know how great your diss track is when it has Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, and everyone else in the crowd at the #Grammys standing up and dancing their asses off. Even after they just lost a Grammy to you in the same damn category.

This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility

Black History Month Salutes: Gerry Johnson of Flint, Michigan, who in 1968 became the first person to modify “turkey” with “jive.” The colorful insult remained in circulation for 16 years, until it was used by the “breakdancing grandma” character in the Joe Piscipo vehicle “Layin’ It Down.”

War Damn Eagle! #auburn #joewalsh #vinyl

Zzz...

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Four albums that came out the year I turned 14 #Music

I was today years old when I noticed in "Sixteen Candles," the CONFIDENTIAL survey that Samantha takes in the beginning, that Jake steals, "CONFIDENTAIL" is spelled wrong. #80sMovies #tcm

"I feel like he's [Will Graham] one of the fictional characters that I relate to the most." The fantastic @priscillapage.bsky.social has brought her dictaphone to perform the detective protagonist role for this @ohmpods.bsky.social #MINHUNTER episode. www.oneheatminute.com/minhunter/18

"3 Days of the Condor" is a Christmas movie. 🎄🎁🔫

MANHUNTER (1986) dir - Michael Mann

I don't think the actor Earl Holliman, who just died at 96, officially came out, so I was touched to see his passing confirmed by his husband. His first screen role was in 1952; he came up when, for an actor, coming out was not difficult but impossible. He lived through things we'll never know. RIP.

“Hi. I'm Fred. I like tacos and '71 Cabernet. My favorite color is magenta.” #valleygirl

Auburn wins, Auburn wins

RIP Earl Holliman. Surprised no one has mentioned his turns in "Giant" or "Sharky's Machine." Tremendous talent.
