My favorite metal band, Fear Factory, turned me on to Mario Savio's "Bodies upon the gears" protest speech from 1964. Inspirational stuff in these times.

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

A lot of people are gonna go with "Gimme Shelter" or "Sympathy for the Devil" — and they are superior to this one! — but I'm going to put this forgotten hit from 1989's Steel Wheels back into people's minds:
"Mixed Emotions" by the Rolling Stones

Kirk Herbstreit's voice is anodyne and easy to ignore.
He is knowledgeable, and provides decent commentary.
But I can easily ignore him at my will. Tune into his perspective at my will.
Kirk Herbstreit is the perfect color announcer.

"A hastily conducted poll reveals that 78% of the nation now believes that the dinosaur attacks are actually happening, up 43% in just the first thirty minutes. 'At first figured this was some kind of Eastern-liberal hoax,' laughed Senator Alfonse Springer (R-TEXAS)."

I can't say I approve of the use of the word "holocaust," nor of the civilian deaths, but that image on the front is quite satisfying right about now

You just know he's said "quiet, piggy" to at least one of his victims, and that's a sick realization
I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have just identified a powerful new antibiotic that is 100x STRONGER than existing drugs against deadly superbugs like MRSA and VRE. Hiding in a well-known soil bacterium, pre-methylenomycin C lactone KILLS drug-resistant bacteria WITHOUT triggering resistance.

They were merely exchanging long protein strings. If you can think of a simpler way, I'd like to hear it.
