Today is an utter meltdown for #PublicTransit between #NYC and #NJ. We live in a third world country now.

A podcast interviewer for the New Yorker, wearing headphones, speaking into a microphone in a shock-mount that has a foam windscreen on it, and a circular pop-filter in front of it.

It’s not a thing that using more pop-filters makes it sound better. @newyorker.com #audio #microphones

The best part of Snowballghazi is that the exact same people who either endorse or don’t condemn “your body, my choice” are like you need to CONSENT and PARTICIPATE for it to be characterized as a snowball fight

This ish is unacceptable.

You mention INXS' "listen like thieves" so I feel compelled to dunk on the awful, recent "anniversary edition" - a remix that hypes up the sound, super compressed and rough edges removed. A horrible sonic Photoshop job, it lost anything that was organic about it. Wish they'd just remastered it.

You know this could have gone completely differently.

The police could have done some "community policing" and joined in on the snowball fight.

Especially since the snowball fight WAS PLANNED.

What fucking thin skin.

Local zoning is the way! A lot of these are being stopped or stalled by neighborhood organizing.

These warehouses often need to be purchased, permitted, approved for occupancy and specs. Each one of those steps can be interrupted.

Ppl are pressuring corps not to sell, counties to deny permits, etc

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times.

I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

This guy gets it.

only about 25 hours to go!

At this this blizzard will give me a chance to make a dent in the 28 hour long playlist of #Krautrock I made this weekend.

tweet from @cliftonhowze on twitter Last night at the #DataCenters meeting in Claremore, Darren Blanchard, who has attended most of these meetings around NE Oklahoma & has some pretty impressive FOIA/ORA skills, was arrested after going over his 3 min. allotted speaking time. First arrest I've seen at one of these.

in america, if you go over your 3 minute allotment to speak, men with guns come to take you away.

Springsteen writes a protest song. U2 writes a protest song. What does Taylor Swift do, wake up and decide which hot pants she's going to wear that day? Where are the current artists' voices?
