Damn. I'm sorry Jake, no one should have to deal with that kind of pain. Hope they can figure it out & get you on the healing path soon. Stay strong!

Pearl Jam - Given To Fly Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (Dedicated to Michael J. Fox)
YouTube video by pearljamfan2020 Pearl Jam - Given To Fly Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (Dedicated to Michael J. Fox)

My favorite song off this album, and my top 3 all-time, is Given to Fly. It, too, is about evolution, a musical Parable of the Cave with beautiful and uplifting guitar and soaring vocals. And the live version is an evolution of itself over the years. From the RRHoF: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cA_J...

This is one of my favorite PJ albums. It came out while I was in high school and represented continued growth - both mine, and theirs, from the first 7 years of Pearl Jam music, and from grunge in general. In other words - "It's evolution, baby..." www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDaO...

The guy saying "FSD is close to not requiring human interaction" for the last 10 years also wants you to think that w/in 2-3 years we'll be able to defy physics to have datacenters in space generating AI compute at less cost than on Earth.

There's not enough ketamine in the universe to explain this

Sepp Blatter suggests fans should not travel to US for World Cup The ex-Fifa boss showed his support of a Swiss lawyer who called for a boycott of the tournament due to security concerns in the US

Imagine being so corrupt and authoritarian even Sepp Blatter thinks you've gone too far.

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti

β€œWe are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the β€˜hero’ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. 

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

We MUST fill Congress with people for whom this is the base position. No more milquetoast half-measures from ineffectual corporate mouthpieces. These executions must end.

I love when things mean to reference the word "rogue," but use the word "rouge" instead. As in "Oh no! a rouge user account in my Active Directory!"

The reason the β€œpaid protestor” accusation is so popular is that these are people who cannot imagine doing something because it’s right, to stand up for a principle, talking to other people like that.
