I am very enthusiastically in search of tickets for Yo La Tengo at Bowery Ballroom this Hanukkah season! Especially Dec. 15-18.
If you are, or know, someone with extras, think of me!

I think this is an excellent idea, tied specifically to corporations' complicity in ICE terror.

Adams Boosts Budget, Leaving a $4.7 Billion Hole for Mamdani
Looming budget deficits, no provisions for federal aid cuts and new commitments mark the departing mayor’s last word on the city’s financial plan.

And even if there were people who didn’t want to earn anything beyond their UBI, just veg out, watch TV, read library books, hang out with friends — they’re still spending that UBI.
The money flows to local purveyors of food, clothing, shelter, transportation, etc. It still makes the economy go.

My hot take is: the primary goal of a sitting representative should not be winning upcoming elections.
[Alex Nguyen, a spokesman for Mr. Schumer, disputed that notion. “Our North Star is winning the Senate majority in 2026 and any decision is made to achieve that goal,” he said in a statement.]

I think @brianbeutler.bsky.social got it right when he compared this horrid spectacle to "Bumfights for the literati"

I can't even find this on *CD* for less than $100 in the US. What a weird rollout this has been. Just nominated for a Grammy, and it's unclear if it's currently in print.
Nick Drake - "The Making of Five Leaves Left" (2025)
My pre-order for this got canceled because there's a fucking moron in the White House, but I managed to snag another copy for twice the price. Would that that was the only negative impact of Drumpf.
