No I will not feel guilty for being outside, with a Blue Moon, with a new friend, on the hunt for Art.

The Best Free Indie, Alternative, and Punk Music Documentaries Behold a stellar collection of alternative, indie, new wave, shoegaze, ska, and punk docs that are compelling, filled with high-quality facts, and free.

I love a good music documentary. Where else would I find important bits of music history like, "From the very beginning of The Smiths, Morrissey behaved like a Big-Time Charlie Potato."

I made a list of some stellar docs for all of you Big-Time Charlie Potatoes...

πŸ”₯SEN. charlane oliver : β€œNashville, we have a problem… this isn’t just about a stupid tunnel. It’s about who this city/state works for… Dems are not equipped to fight authoritarianism.”

Elon’s tunnel is the Epstein class exploiting minority communities (again) open.substack.com/pub/charlane...

Colleagues describe her as competent and no-nonsense.

I might get away with β€œcompetent” but no one is ever going to call me β€œno-nonsense”

Social media created this nonsense idea that not exposing yourself to hatred is isolationist. Choosing to not spend your free time with bigots isn’t living in a bubble. I don’t need to know what’s going on at X. I won’t be smarter or more knowledgeable or empathic by being there. Neither will you.

My friends who live in tents or cars or have 90 roommates are like "which orgs can get aid into which countries right now? I think I have five bucks. I'm trying to learn Farsi so I can see what's going on in this news server" and the lake housers are like "timeline cleanse. What brings you joy?"

I know some day Zohran will break my heart. But, today is not that day. That "you are safe here," was felt in Virginia.

If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times.

I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real. πŸ‘πŸΎπŸ‘πŸΎπŸ‘πŸΎ

Put frozen chicken breast in crockpot, half a stick of butter underneath. One can of cream of chicken & a jar of pesto. An ungodly amount of garlil, basil and lemon. Penne uncooked. Fresh mozz throughout. Cover pasta with chicken stock and parm. Cook on low for five hours. You are very welcome.

Pope Leo Will Spend July 4 Visiting Migrant Crossing Island Pope Leo has spoken out against the treatment of migrants in the United States several times over the last year.

JD Vance personally invited Pope Leo to the U.S. 250th celebration on the 4th of July. Today the Vatican announced Leo will be spending the day with migrants instead.

I really, really wish people would get off Substack.

Maybe the other platforms aren’t perfect, but at least they’re not stans for fascists.

β€˜Andor’ Creator Tony Gilroy Gives the Interview He Couldn’t During Its Release While promoting his cautionary tale about fascism, Disney asked Gilroy to refrain from using the word. Nine months after it aired its finale, the 'Star Wars' series feels scarily prescient.

Great interview with the creator of Andor, Tony Gilroy.
