One game in, and maybe we’ve already had the best ending we’ll see for this entire tourney?

March Madness is the absolute best.

If i were president i would issue an executive order stating that everyone had to love each other and listen to CDs and then I'd push through universal healthcare

Much work is needed to learn why voters who supported Dems in the past stayed home & why too many who voted D in the past took a flyer on Trump. But I'm certain, none of them wanted to pardon the Jan 6 traitors who assaulted police, fire top FBI investigators, or pick a trade war w/ Canada & Mexico.

FAA Chief Quit on Jan. 20 After Elon Musk Told Him to Resign Michael Whitaker had only been in the role for a year but the SpaceX chief accused him of “harassment.”

I missed this entirely:

The FAA Administrator criticized Space X’s safety record and threatened fines.

Musk demanded he resign.

He did.

On January 20th.

I’m still irrationally mad at Dusty Baker for his mistreatment of Mark Prior’s arm

I remember watching the series by @jdryznar.bsky.social and @hollywoodsteve.bsky.social in 05 or 06 (and losing my mind laughing at it) and I love how this new movie has given those guys their proper credit as well.

I’ll gladly admit that I’m a sucker for a good music film…

But I’ve gotta say, the new “Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary” is fantastic. A+ work from @gprice11.bsky.social and company on this one.

It’s just so well done.

This is a combo I thought was unique to a group chat I’m in.

Pink Pony Club > Brace For Impact is not for the faint of heart

Last night’s show: Sloan at the Concert Hall in Toronto

They played the Smeared album in full, plus other b-sides from the early Halifax days

An amazing night of music. Unlike any other Sloan show I’ve ever seen

Arkells pre-show playlist in the arena:

Harry Styles > T Swift > Chappell Roan (x2) > MJ Lenderman

And now we follow it up with Sophie Ellis-Bextor? A little Murder on the Dancefloor?

I'm 100% here for this kind of shenanigans

Last night’s show: Tokyo Police Club

Skipping Thanksgiving with a few nights of music in Toronto could be one of our best ideas

Last night’s show: Sturgill Simpson at MGM Fenway

It’s a rare thing to catch a band that’s at their absolute peak, but this was one of those shows. 3 hours and 15 minutes of non-stop rock. It’s hard to put into words just how good this band is. An amazing night of music.
