Released on this day in 1987, the sixth studio album by #DepecheMode was "Music for the Masses". It featured such recognizable tracks as "Strangelove" and "Never Let Me Down Again".

Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

I started writing short stories when freelancing began to feel terrible. I needed to write short, weird things instead of click-y things.

@wigleaf.bsky.social was one of the first journals I fell in love with. A dream pub. One day, I hoped!

Today I have a story there. 😱πŸ₯Ή

"Earl suggests we try trapping the goat in a sheet and I picture limbs punching out, like how Cas’ belly will look if she keeps trying to do it with Earl."

I do love a story with a goat!

I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."
