For those of you who were keeping up with the mass market mess, here is a more informative article.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

The third and probably final edition of 'Johnny Thunders - In Cold Blood' available via Jawbone press featuring an additional chapter & a foreword by Mike Scott. Thank you for your very kind words @blueastronaut.bsky.social they mean a lot.
Speaking of @ninaantonia13.bsky.social & Johnny Thunders, her book - In Cold Blood - is the single best thing you'll read on him. Full of heart, respect, honesty, wit & deep knowledge. Sits amongst the elect 👍😉😎🖤

It needs a complete rewrite.

I’m tired.

i know at least one person getting copy-writing and editing gigs again after nearly two years of firms trying to use AI to write all their blogs, newsletters and social posts, before finally giving up (or at least hiring people to fix the AI copy)
