Addiction issues (alcohol or otherwise) have killed just as many of my friendships as politics have, maybe even more.

this is bananas (my sister is now sober but she's still living with a heroin addict who cooks meth too and it's not great!).

shoot me your email in the DMs if you want more stuff about this!

Bhutan did an ethnic cleansing campaign on ethnic Nepalis in the 90s (there are a lot of those Nepalis in my neighborhood). I have no idea if that bit of fact helps at all.

I was really tempted to get an $80K condo here to stay near the lake in that neighborhood but the fees fluctuate and I got really spoiled only sharing walls with one other person as a renter.

I'm half Scot / half Irish on one side and all Polish on the other and this is making me frown so hard.

My friend at the record store gave me a bunch of trade-in CDs so I have a good chunk of of the Medicine back catalog now. Yet another one of those "got into them because of the amazing music library at the college radio station that's now gone as of 3 days ago."

Fangs, by Nuclear Daisies from the album First Taste of Heaven

Reminder that the new Nuclear Daisies is straight heat, check it if you love shoegaze, 90s big beat, or any combination of those

this really hits the spot because I love noisy stuff and have been listening to a lot of the Happy Mondays recently.

I get really frustrated about not being able to buy certain concert tickets, go to certain sporting events, or even park in some places because it's just assumed that everybody apps.

UFW pushes for farms to honor union contracts - Rochester Beacon United Farm Workers organizers have called on Wayne County’s Wafler Farms to implement a contract imposed in arbitration.

besides having responsibilities of care here right where I am that I can't abandon, every time someone says "I've got a spare room where I'm moving out of the country that you can stay in if you want to bail," and I realize it's never people I could live with or places I'd want to be.

killing the college radio station that I DJed at for 14 years was a very "and now this TOO?" moment.

Baseball is still the sport of the Great Lakes, here as we head into September.
