Rest in power, Jimmy Cliff
I normally don’t cover music with the JER project. It’s my band where I express my message through my art. this track was an exception. The track was originally recorded by Jimmy Cliff, an artist whose music is rooted in ska, it had a profound impact my music

RIP Jimmy
I saw Jimmy Cliff in the middle of the afternoon at Osheaga in 2010. They put him on the main stage for a bunch of disinterested hipsters and he absolutely crushed. I will never forget that performance. RIP to a king.

7 million seems so low for how much money they siphoned from their tenants. More of a fee to conduct business than a punishment.
Greystar, the largest landlord in the U.S., will pay $7 million to nine states after getting caught using a rent-setting algorithm that helped drive up housing costs.
The settlement bans Greystar from using software that relies on other landlords’ data to set rents.

Bad news: Senator John Fetterman's book isn't selling. We need to support our Democratic senators if we want to take back Congress in 2026. That means walking the walk and putting our money where our mouth is — even if we disagree sometimes.
