I've had Go!, with the same lineup, for quite a while, but this is just a total treat!

JD Vance can dismiss the Young Republicans as a college group chat.

But let's be clear: the group chat includes a State Senator, a Trump Admin official, and multiple Republican staffers — and some of the worst comments came from folks associated with Mike Johnson, Elise Stefanik, and Mike Lawler.

I can remember my dad, Presbyterian minister in Iowa, being on the lookout/aware of them back then. How widespread were they?

And, of course, as I learn/remember, The New Wave in Jazz is a LIVE recording with bonus Tolliver and Grachan Moncur tracks on the CD...🤩🤩🤩

Billy Higgins is definitely MVP, appearing on half of them! The Dexter Gordon, Taylor's Cell Walk for Celeste and The New Wave in Jazz w/ Charles Tolliver's group. Sheesh!

And it's not like they're some trucker's copies that are all scratched up from bouncing around a semi - they're all clean as a whistle!

Dollar CDs! The normally on top of it record store let a half dozen beauties slither into the clearance boxes!?! John Zorn, Cecil Taylor, Jimmy Lyons (With Karen Borca? YES!), Dexter Gordon and an Impulse Sampler. Not bad for a random Tuesday afternoon in October. #JazzSky #NowPlaying

Not nearly as long a read as it seems (spoiler alert: pro-Grace Jones)

Against The Grain: What’s wrong with hauntology?

In The Wire 501, @robinjames.bsky.social argues that the influential cultural theory of hauntology does not account for developments in Black creative practices and music of the late 20th and early 21st centuries

Who is the guy in the red sweater? He's leaning against car, bends down and it looks like he tosses the canister. He's immediately grabbed, but then dragged to the stop sign and let go.

And, "The WH is pleased to announce the addition of Chef Andy as Secretary of Gravy today"

Time to tune in to some analysis from Antifa expert…Chef Andrew…Gruel?…founder of…American Gravy Concepts?

Always important to identify the label one's song would be ideal on. Good opportunity for a female "answer" song on Starday!

Check out the guy in a long-sleeved red sweatshirt/sweater at the beginning and then notice how the cops release him and let him walk away a minute after they grab him.

Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.

Joel Dilley @okiedharmabum.bsky.social · 1d

Um, I notice a guy in long-sleeved RED sweater/sweatshirt, bending down and grabbing canister, then throwing it, grabbed by goons, BUT THEN THEY LET HIM GO! You can see him walking away. I hate to be the crazy guy, but this seems- not likely?

I think Chess is doing CD-R through Amazon now?!? I've got at least one Sonny Boy Williamson on CD-R and I think I remember seeing that is how they would fulfill one or two titles I was looking at.

if anybody is good at lip reading or can isolate the audio, I'd be very curious to learn more about what these two were talking about here. it certainly didn't sound on the level.

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.

I've got the Jasmine set, which probably duplicates most of it. And let me just say, these labels are doing the lord's work! There is no equivalent in the States at this point! I'm scared to death that tariffs, etc are going to make it even harder to find these crucial reissues.

One of the two copies/ editions of Moonchild that have passed through my shelves over the years! And the only one sold on paperback spinner racks!

Both look nice! I can make out Kent on the Chuck Jackson collection (have to admit I probably don't have anything by him, myself, except a single or two on a compilation) but am just guessing the Rosco Gordon is on JSP?
