Gonna reboot this now that we have threading supported: a couple of years ago, on the Bad Place, I started a thread of music I love. It is linked in the quote for posterity and I am continuing this on Bluesky going forward.

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

STEREOGUM: People my age, we talk about how we were lucky that we didn’t have social media growing up, and there’s no record of all the dumb shit we said and did. You didn’t have social media, but everything you said and did in those years is on record, and you’ve got to live with it now. That’s tough.

VIOLENT J: And the amount of gay Juggalos out there is really surprising. I think about them doing their research and getting the old records, getting excited about it, and getting their hearts broke or something, you know? I tell my daughter, “For the rest of your life, when your friends ask why your dad said that, say it’s because your dad was a fool. Don’t defend me. Say I was a fool then, but I’m not now.” There’s no excuse. I was going with the flow, and that’s the very thing we preach against — being a sheep. And that’s what I was doing.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

I prefer a "doggy-dog world" to a "dog-eat-dog world" no matter what the scolds at Merriam Webster say

Merriam-Webster @merriam-webster.com · 1d

Not to be THAT dictionary, but…

It’s ‘per se,’ not ‘per say.’
It’s ‘dog-eat-dog world,’ not ‘doggy-dog world.’
It’s ‘hunger pangs,’ not ‘hunger pains.’
It’s ‘one and the same,’ not ‘one in the same.’
It's 'buck naked,' not 'butt naked.'

Thanks! We put this to good use. The one in the middle was made by my youngest ❤️🐸

Three homemade posters for the No Kings rally, each using the Obama-eque frog that says “HOP.” One is white and reads “Toad-ally opposed to fascism.” One is black and reads “NO KINGS EVER” in kids handwriting. The last is white and reads “I have friends on every lily pad”

The only explanation for this is that these people would disprove the administration’s narrative about the identity of the people we are murdering. I’m a little surprised they didn’t just straight-up murder these two in custody. That’s who the government is now.

Breaking News: The Trump administration has decided to repatriate two survivors of a deadly U.S. strike this week on suspected drug runners in the Caribbean Sea rather than prosecute them or hold them in military detention, people with knowledge of the matter said on Saturday.

U.S. to Repatriate Survivors of Its Strike on Suspected Drug Vessel

The U.S. military rescued the two men in the Caribbean Sea after Special Operations forces fired on a semi-submersible that was assessed to be smuggling drugs.

Peaceful protest is a vital part of our democracy.

Today, thousands of Angelenos are expected to gather for No Kings Day demonstrations across the city.

I urge everyone to express themselves peacefully and safely.
