no more Schumers. no more Kaines. no more Cuomos. no more Obamas, even, no more Newsoms, no more Pritzkers, not one more goddamn Clinton. no. who else do you have. show me something else. show me something better.

Absolutely shameful of you to vote Yes and behave as if anyone on the other side of the aisle is working with you in good faith. You and the rest of the D senate leadership have utterly lost touch with what it means to represent your constituents like me and my family. Good riddance.

Yes. Saved my daughter’s life. DM me.

Once again tapping the sign that says don’t post pics of faces from protests even if people are posing for them happily because they don’t realise the risks

Stand tall, speak up, and remember that no troops, no weapons, no show of force is stronger than a united community that refuses to yield its rights.
Chicago will not succumb to threats. Cook County will not be silenced. And Democracy will not be dismantled on our watch.

Goosebumps cover showing a spooky house titled Welcome to Dead House with the caption "it will just kill you"

Masterclass in communications:

1️⃣ Friendly tone of voice ("welcome")
2️⃣ Descriptive naming ("dead house")
3️⃣ Set expectations about the outcome and process ("it will just kill you")

Until this very day, I thought people in the eighties who talked about Merkur cars just couldn't pronounce "Mercury”

Yep

Nope

Also I love that it was clearly in the contract for #GD60 that one member of each opener wear a Dead shirt "from the vault"

This #TAB set at #GD60 brought to you by Liquid Death™️

Recently ordered something from Ali Express and that was a ride, man

Receipt for my donation to this year's Good Karma pledge drive for Summer 2025 ($413.97 to account for 19 20-minute jams plus a little extra here and there, plus processing)

Done!

😭

I have a lot going on right now but I can tell you for certain that I would have absolutely lost my entire shit if I had been at tonight’s #Phish show, just puddled beyond all recognition

Fans: we would love if they would add some more variation to the setlists

Phish: we’re gonna play the same song 8 times in one show

Thanks Bob

Thank you!

Becoming an orphan at almost-51 isn't the worse time for it to happen, but it sure isn't the best either. Humbled to have held my mom's hand in her final moments last night and grateful for her 95 years here on earth. A true legacy of love and generosity to ripple through the ages. Love you, Mom.

passage about invention of refrigerated railroad car

white train car advertising Swift Breakfast Bacon

today i learned the origin of the term "reefer," because joints resembled white refrigerator cars (from thomas w. gilbert's engaging "how baseball happened"), another obscure intersection of baseball & jazz.

Oh god #Phish is going to play Breath and Burning tomorrow aren't they

The exhilarating freedom of not liking the poster for a #Phish run you're attending

Doug Martsch plays guitar onstage at Salt Shed, Chicago, with Yo La Tengo. From left to right: Martsch, James McNew playing bass, Georgia Huntley on drums, and Ira Kaplan on guitar. The stage lights are purplish.

Doug Martsch joining Yo La Tengo for Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams" at Salt Shed last night was pretty much exactly what you would expect (complimentary).

Which of Andrea Gibson's #poetry collections would you eagerly press into the hands of someone unfamiliar with their work?
