One of his finest records. Possibly even the finest.
#OnThisDay February 15, 1980 #ElvisCostello & the Attractions released Get Happy!!, a 20 track album inspired by 60's soul music. #NME named it the 2nd best album of 1980. It remains a pivotal work in his long career, an assured 1st step toward even more grandiose experiments to come.

The American state media attacked President Biden more fiercely over his age whilst he was doing good work than they have with orange felon murdering citizens, arresting journalists, terrorizing immigrants and robbing the country blind. They deliberately failed humanity.

I have long said people don't be hatin Chief Justice John Roberts as much as they should be hatin Chief Justice John Roberts
“Roberts has been embedding white-dominant authoritarianism into the country’s source code for two decades. It’s impossible to imagine today’s crisis without the Roberts court having first undermined the foundations of our democracy.”

This is the asymmetry in our politics and media. If this was the other way around, Biden had pardoned someone then charged with trying to kill Trump, it would be the biggest story in America and every Republican commentator, congressman, news outlet, would be screaming about it in unison.
