what you can do is, get really old and watch the music you love influence a whole new generation of artists.

I went to see Chick Corea and return to forever, in 1976 or so, and for an encore, they brought out Stevie Wonder to do three of his songs.

I keep posting because nobody fucks with me here. There are no MAGA trolls, and whenever I encounter the anti-anti-Trump left, I block ‘em and move on. Life is peaceful here.

But you should follow Mr Brezsny and send him some love.

This is why so many courts have found conversion therapy, which shows images to gay men to stop them from being attracted to other men, to be excessively cruel.

so apparently selling pardons is fine with SCOTUS, racial profiling is no big deal, fomenting insurrection gets you a pass. Just don’t mess with shareholder value.

Thomas Pynchon Saw American Fascism Coming The elusive author of paranoid, absurdist novels looks more and more prescient these days.

I wish 2026 were a little less Pynchonesque, but here we are.

4 frame comic. a street journalist, off frame, asks someone with long hair exiting the subway : miss! do you think
it's fair for biological
female athletes to be
forced to compete with
transgenders?
she replies :
that's not a question. every
year, new studies show that
trans women have no inherent
athletic advantages over cis
women. science and research
have settled this already.*
*a meta-study published this month in the
british journal of sports medicine reviewed 52
studies with 5252 trans athlete participants.
https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/60/3/198
what's unfair is how female
athletes, cis or trans, must
endure constant, unrestrained
sexual misconduct throughout
their formative years to simply
get a shot at competing
at an elite level.
just last month, a report*
showed that 88% of surveyed
u.k. elite athletes of the int'l
women's sports collective
reported sexual misconduct,
and 40% reported sexual abuse.
93% of the time, perpetrators
were cis men.

misconduct working in UK elite sport,"
