something i'll note is that if nuzzi ran catch-and-kill ops for rfk jr and lizza knew this prior to him being appointed as HHS, and instead of telling anyone, he decided to save it for his substack long after rfk jr had made communicable disease into federal policy, that's completely fucked

I just need people to know that I killed it at late night karaoke at the Star Trek convention while Cirroc Lofton played mock backup on a toy guitar. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

We are shocked and saddened to hear of Jellybean Johnson's sudden passing. To know that this amazing personality will no longer randomly show up (like here on @recordstoreday.bsky.social 2023) to light up the store and talk music and life and Minneapolis Sound Museum with us is heartbreaking.π

Another star extinguished in the constellation that was Prince. RIP Jellybean Johnson, drummer for The Time, stellar producer, an originator of the Minneapolis Sound, and the epitome of cool.
I was blessed to see Jellybean perform with Bernard Allison last year at The Hook & Ladder in Minneapolis.
