Don't forget Troop 6000 when ordering your Girl Scout cookies this year. They are a troop specifically for girls in the shelter system in NYC. The troop also helps families link up with new troops once they are able to find housing.

Just putting it out there into the universe bc you never know: if any of you happen to own a copy of this Robyn tour poster from 2019 (specifically THIS one, with the Hollywood Palladium date, not the second poster released later on in the tour), I will make you a very generous offer.

There was a fire that caused the closure of a Metro station and 20 minute train delays.
As a result the Metro has achieved NYC subway levels of crowdedness.

I think the fact that Billboard used a photo that’s only 2/3s Bee Gees really undermines/answers the rhetorical question. Thank goodness @billboard.com doesn’t purport to be a reputable industry source, or else this Maurice Gibb erasure would be pretty embarrassing.
