The poor man took weeks of abuse, 22 Minutes did a bit.
Quality tv like that was still rare on the networks, and we all knew something huge was going to happen. Ahh event tv!

it was national news in and of itself, you'd remember if you were anywhere near it. The TV critic made it very clear he didn't write "the main character dies in that finale you're excited about tonight"!

I agree, I guess I just lament how underappreciated it is! There was re-issue a few years ago, with Welcome Home that's quite nice

Former rapper and Gen Z's candidate poised to win Nepali election by landslide | CBC Accessibility In a resounding victory that is guaranteed to reshape Nepal's politics, rapper-turned-politician Balendra Shah appeared headed for a landslide win in the South Asian country's first polls since youth-...

"Nepal's voters across the country overwhelmingly put their confidence in Balen in what is seen as emphatic confirmation that Gen Z anger against the old guard considered responsible for government corruption and nepotism can be harnessed into real political change."

Day 8: A Song That Feels Ahead Of Its Time

Sugarcubes - Birthday

College radio played the Icelandic version and we couldn't get enough

The English version still delights and confuses

If nothing else it was Bjork saying "wait till you see what comes next"

Same thing as our provincial "leader" - fear of the redneck vote. In BC nurses and front line workers beg for public health messaging like "hey, is that time of year again..." but nope. 15% of front line hospital staff lost to long covid and exhaustion from repeat infection but silence from the NDP

These Frightening Machines, by Katherine Priddy 10 track album

Listening to a new folk-rock album from Katherine Priddy and the fist word that comes to mind is β€œbewitching,” which is fitting for this song in particular. I love this lyric:

β€œRemember you who tell the tale
of how we climbed those pyres
They weren't burning witches
it was women on those fires”
