Thinking back on all the amazing shows I saw as a kid at the Kennedy Center. Would go with my father to hear jazz. Here's one of the best concerts I've ever been to. Was very young but I remember it well:

Just met my death row bunkmate for the first time. A little standoffish at first but it actually turns out that he's also a HUGE fan of the Feelies' first album, "Crazy Rhythms." This could be fun!

A four-year-old boy named "Dominic" surprised his mother by bringing a baby deer home after returning from the woods in the backyard because he considered the deer his friend, and the mother took a picture of them. This happened in Virginia

I've often compared Trump to a rabid fucking dog. This idiot is saying the opposite: that those affected by the moron are the ones who have rabies.

Did you know that Lorne might have influenced Elaine’s spastic dance on Seinfeld? That Lorne expects cast members to pay for their own food at the SNL aftershow parties? That, like the players for the Yankees, SNL performers are not allowed facial hair? www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/st...

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

Young men on urban streets don't scare me. You know what scares the shit out of me? Fake patriotic "tough guys" roaming the marbled halls of Congress and the Senate in their red-white-and-blue bowties and USA pins on expensive lapels. Scares me to death.

This is my new book. It's a "tie-in" book to the worst movie to have ever won the Best Academy Award, in 1994. It's on pre-sale now, out April 8th. It took four years to write. I think you'll like it. Beautiful hard-cover, like an art book. Thank you! tinyurl.com/2y6ywhhr
