markgustavson.bandcamp.com/track/prelud... A wild piano solo opens the monodrama Lament. I place the context for the work in a fictitious 52nd St jazz club and ask the question, What if jazz and modern music at that time (late 1950s) merged (there were attempts)? #dylanthomas #music #jazz #whatif

Trump's MAGA hat has 45-47 on it rather than the correct 45, 47. Dash definition: ...is frequently used to show numerical ranges... REPLACE the dash with a comma, you Contard #OnceAConAlwaysACon

When I dictate “Trump” my iPhone stops working. When I dictate “pig” it displays “Trump,” then stops working. #apple #racist

Wrong fuckface.

The German conservative party or the Christian Democratic Union, CDU, is not in any way similar to your conservative Nazi movement

They are literally ‘moderate’ Democrats, who are by the way, appalled at what you are doing to the United States.

BREAKING By executive order President Trump has added an eighth day to the week. Trump was quoted as saying "I love the Beatles's song and I can get an extra day of golf in. The new eighth day will be called either Elonday or Muskday. We're still working on it." #bromance #batshitcrazy #trump #musk
