Started my New Year listening to Lou Reed, live Dusseldorf in 2000. An incredible set, with lots of songs from the Ecstasy album, and Lou's guitar playing is outrageous. It was a great way to leave 2025 behind. Love, peace and good tidings to everyone in the year ahead!

Just a note to the fascists: if you want to know what invading New England is going to be like, here's a taste

Power to you Karen. You were fired on the flimsiest of pretexts.

This is a better explanation and coverage on the dark side of gaming and online culture than most mainstream media orgs have.

Because for years, mainstream media ignored / disbanded their gaming culture coverage.

It was a shitpost. Check out Know Your Meme for more of the history on it, or john ganz, or my newsletter #kirk #owo TikTok video by Aidan Walker

I understand some of you don't have TikTok, but if you do, know that the explanation below is the best I've seen of what lay behind the Kirk assassination.

Robinson is an alt-right nihilist, but in a way that's hard for many to understand.

I think Aidan says what I want to say better than I could.

Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

If you’re a convicted felon and your character witness is your dear old friend, the convicted child sex trafficker and enabler of your other dear old friend, the most notorious raper of children in modern history, you’re definitely a total piece of shit.

My world would be very different if I hadn't encountered Ed Sanders' work. First time was when my babysitter played a Fugs record she'd brought to my parents' house!

A woman approached me at a show, told me she enjoyed the band, and mentioned her brother had been a musician. I asked his name, thinking I might know him. "Alan Wilson," she replied. I was floored, but grateful to be able to tell his sister how much I love his music. He did see what was coming.

At a family wedding, this weekend: overheard the white-banged minister telling the groom "I'm not religious, but I love language." Also: a once-impish nephew has grown up to be a Leon Trotsky lookalike. Lastly: my wild sisters still know how to have a seriously good time.

Some men, maybe. Others know the awful backstory and sympathize.

** I'm playing a solo show on Saturday, April 26, @ William Schaff's studio, 164 Water St. Warren, RI. A great intimate, space. Music at 7 PM. $20 suggested donation. (photo: Nate Dow)

I read a bit of Kennedy's book on Fauci. It was preposterous, full of snark about scientists who dare embrace germ theory (he's into miasma theory). But it's always mealy-mouthed, with quick sleight-of-hand sentences thrown in to ensure that if challenged he can later deny saying what he just said.

Wow - yesterday's Union Pool show was great. A fantastic, listening audience helped me play as well as I can. Feeling connection, in these messed-up times, means a lot. Knowing it's still possible keeps me going.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

At one of his frequent press conferences (because he loves being on TV), I'd love it if some reporter piped up with, "What do you say to people who call you a know-nothing narcissistic asshole, Mr. President?"
