People make fun of AI “hallucinations,” but this is 100% accurate.
was 1995 30 years ago

Al Overview

No, 1995 was not 30 years ago. If today is July 25, 2025, then 30 years ago would be 1995. So, yes, 1995 was 30 years ago.

When they were NEW ROCK I was commuting from Hartland to Racine near the lake - so a good HOUR on the road each way.

One evening about half way, they changed format and started playing stale top40 something or other.

I SCREAMED: NO!!!

Went back to listening to CDs.

The news from the past few days is a stunning example of what happens when the state decides it wants to crush just one guy

The fact that this administration is hell bent on punishing Kilmar Abrego Garcia while rewarding Ghislane Maxwell tells you all you need to know about their violent racism and misogyny.

Remembering today when pro-GOP media erupted with outrage over Kamala Harris' warning that Trump had plans to militarize the national guard and deploy them on the streets of US cities. Indeed, he had such plans. And now he's implementing them.

Came across an old mix tape (CD) I made in 1996...

These were new releases I picked from a subscription I had called CMJ (College Music Journal).
They would ship a CD and small magazine with it each month.

YT had most of the songs but not ALL. Starts with Fiona Apple:

NEW: The FBI raided the home of John Bolton, Trump’s former national security advisor turned vocal critic, in an investigation over whether he shared classified information. The move marks escalation in the DOJ’s retribution campaign against perceived enemies of the president.

The Supreme Court just greenlit Donald Trump gutting nearly $800 MILLION for medical treatments and cures.

Congress approved this funding for a reason: it saves lives.

This is disgraceful, and families will suffer.

Mourning that once-great American car company, Jaguar
Anna Paulina Luna: Bud Light. Target. Disney. Jaguar. Now Cracker Barrel. One by one, once-great American companies are self destructing with woke rebrands.
When will executives take the note: Wokeism isn't just a failed ideology, it's economic suicide.

Don’t forget that we are in this redistricting battle because the ideological Supreme Court held (5-4) that partisan gerrymandering cases couldn’t be heard in federal courts

Remember: This was a SC that that was configured that way after Republicans stole a SC seat. No stolen seat=different result.
