Liveshot: ACL gets ‘Sprung’ on T-Pain

Even before T-Pain took the stage Sunday evening, Austin City Limits Festival felt charged. The sun dipped low over Zilker Park as tens of thousands of fans packed shoulder to shoulder toward the festival’s biggest stage. His set, dressed in a Western saloon-style motif, felt like a nod to the city, the past and his...

Go ahead and watch that T-Pain ACL performance. T-Pain had the Midas touch of the early aughts. I love seeing him get his flowers

Was also very excited in the last couple days to find this incredible T-Pain cover of War Pigs by Black Sabbath. Really brings out whole new layers to it.

Multiple airports are now announcing they will refuse to play Kristi Noem’s government-funded video blaming “Democrats” for the government shutdown.

“We believe the Hatch Act clearly prohibits use of public assets for political purposes and messaging,” one airport said.

There are a number of GOP candidates, elected and not, who became famous b/c of viral videos: eg, Ben Carson (who confronted Obama at a prayer breakfast), Lauren Boebert, etc.

Is Talerico the first Dem to follow this path?

Huge crowd for James Talarico in deep red San Angelo, TX!

This county hasn’t voted for a Democrat since LBJ, but they showed up for Talarico.

"Asbestos-related diseases from rubble were a worry after last year’s earthquake in Turkey. Such diseases usually take 10-50 years to emerge, experts say. The risk of asbestos-related disease increases with the number of asbestos fibres inhaled over a lifetime."

Newgrounds has a very helpful guide for detecting AI audio over at www.newgrounds.com/wiki/help-in... for anyone interested in catching AI-generated music. Don't rely on any service that uses AI for detection, that's just using slop to find slop and you'll get false positives/missed catches.

Again, every time this happens, we literally have no idea if the masked, plainclothes people are actual government agents, or private citizens acting in party-affiliated paramilitaries. The whole point of IDs & uniforms & no masks is that we know these things.

The latest hasbara false narrative on X is a claim that there were no female hostages released today because Hamas killed them all.

It is even being spread by Katie Miller, the wife of White House CoS Stephen Miller.

The reality is female hostages were released under previous ceasefire agreements.

Hamas killed every single female hostage they had left so those girls couldn't tell the world what they had done to them.

New hasbara talking point: In exemplary unison, Israel flunkies are proclaiming that Hamas murdered all the women it still held.
Some have been asked to insist that they were raped to death, so we already know what the forensic reports will conclude after the bodies are delivered to Israel.
According to my sources the talking point was drafted by the same state that killed them with its bombs.
