Great ATL evening: Ghost Riders Car Club at Thinking Man’s Tavern (Star Bar East) and then home listening to H. Johnson’s Jazz Classics.

😂😂😂😂😂😂 PLEASE RUN ERIC!

David Byrne voice: “Same as it ever was… SAME AS IT EVER WAS!” (just codified)

Kinda feels like internet newsletters are the new cable TV…

you know shit's serious when NYT is using the actual words to describe what's happening

True, and why I found “Rough and Rowdy Ways” so astonishing. “Murder Most Foul” and “I Contain Multitudes" musically sound like very little like what Bob has done before…

She definitely declined… to retire. (And we are all paying for it).

America we have to ask ourselves: “Is our Presidents learning?” 😂

💯

What a photo! cc @fourcrickets.bsky.social

“He only takes tips!”

If you want to see the true Atlamsterdam, come take a walk between 10th St. and North Ave. Bikes, pedestrians, scooters, electric longboards, we've got it all and plenty of cool sculptures too!

Great survey of Milton Glaser's album design work (though by no means all of them) on the day he was both born and left our temporal plane. www.openculture.com/2020/08/milt...

Uncle Milty! For years I thought I was the only one who was seeing “ELVIS” spelled out in Bob Dylan's hair in the famous poster. 😂

First two episodes were good! Welcome back, Bear. (And your walls could use some of Brianna's excellent art… )

Hells yeah! Preach, @warren.senate.gov!

i am simply asking the press to cover the government sending masked thugs to rip people from their crying children and shipping them to a foreign concentration camp with the same ferocity they cover a trans kid playing jv tennis in sheboygan

[this is good]

Your reminder that @jakexerxesfussell.bsky.social has a great weekly radio show that airs at 1:00 pm Wednesdays on the delightfully named WHUP radio… whupfm.org/episode/fall...

Thank you, New Yorkers!

It’s coming, slowly but surely… #standdowncoots

Definitely a win for us “Stand down, coots!” folks…

Cool Atlanta thing to do tonight: Hit Commune in Avondale Estates and drink vermouth on ice while watching “Straight No Chaser” the Thelonious Monk doc. Starts at 7:30

Elevator pitch: “It's ‘Practical Magic’ meets ‘Seventh Seal’!”

As the Dad of a 23-year-old woman, can confirm…

VENUS (Palindrome-Haiku) Pure Venus, asleep, slid off a daffodil’s peels, a sun ever up.

Sure seems like @democrats.org should be running commercials featuring this, right? 🤔

The internet is for music recommendations…

Zohran Mamdani working to save the CYCO, a beloved Yiddish bookstore in Queens, back in 2022 and this is the guy that Cuomo, Bloomberg, legacy media & the Trump billionaires are all trying to smear as antisemitic….for shame!

“Common One” is the great unknown make-out record of the ’80s, up there with Roxy Music “Avalon” in my book. Van was totally influenced by Miles Davis’s “In A Silent Way”

Al Green is a real one, y'all!

Let's do this, New Yorkers! (And don't rank Cuomo)

YMMV, but this is the first Wes Anderson in a while that I truly enjoyed. (Including the end, when Michael Cera is wearing the trademark brown corduroy suit of the director!)

We are really seeing exactly who the real Constitutionalists are, aren't we?

No money for Medicaid or SNAP or museums or schools or sidewalks or gun violence prevention or art or libraries. Always money for war.

Time for some real talk: @thexylom.com, the only Asian American-run news outlet covering science, climate, and the environment, will run out of funding in July if we don't secure $7,500 by the end of the month. I might lose my job at a time while waiting for a visa extension -- a nightmare scenario.

This is an excellent headline and reporting from @nytimes.com. More of this kind of thing, Grey Lady…

Perfectly put, Mr. Monteiro…

The concept of sexual harassment has endorsed Andrew Cuomo for Mayor.
