Sad that so many people don’t know what the song is actually about: a Maryland suburb just outside of DC.
Fleetwood Mac 's "Silver Springs" is a trending sound right now at least on Insta, and people are using it for ... their wedding videos and getting brunch with friends.

they hear "you won't forget me" and go "awww 🥹"

🫠 You don't even need to know the background, just actually listen to the song

An amazing list of indie pubs that are doing something new, taking risks, and supporting diversity. Help support them all by getting some books and talking about them!!!!
2 ongoing convos are dovetailing rn:
1. a holiday shopping $ blackout aimed at big business;
2. worry over small presses closing or paring down.

Let's talk direct action: YOU CAN DO BOTH😀

IT'S VITAL TO SUPPORT indie pubs that encourage risk & diversity. Here's a 🧵 of em you can support directly:

My friend and I saw Avatar (the metal band, not the movie) in concert last night and it was an excellent show. Go see them if they’re in your area! I’ve had “Tonight We Must Be Warriors” stuck in my head all day.

In self-interest but also general interest, folks: Black Friday is coming up, and small publishers/independent creators will always be a better choice than megacorps.

When the sales drop, please remember that!

I will admit to many frailties and flaws. I am far from perfect and have made plenty of mistakes and there are plenty of things I am bad at.

You could not pay me enough to declare that I am incapable of composing my own insults.

Marijuana is mentally addictive, but—unlike alcohol and nicotine—you won’t experience physical withdrawals once you stop.

*I’m not an expert, learned this in school so grain, salt, etc.
Doctors say it's possible to get hooked on pot. There's a widespread misconception that marijuana is not addictive, and it's expanded as a growing number of states legalize pot.
