MusiCares helps musicians get & stay sober. They helped me get sober 24 yrs ago (they paid my rent to live in a sober living halfway house when I had 2 broken arms) and it’s a privilege to be able to give back. I’m proof that any $ you send them does WORK. donor.musicares.org/page/FUNMPDS...

So this admin lets a private company, that the president owns stock in, use the White House and grounds for a pay-per-view spectacle using troops & staff, rents out ads everywhere, and has it streaming on the company whose monopolistic merger it just approved. Grift never ending

it's notable to me that the administration tried to frame tonight's UFC event as a "gift to Americans" but you can't watch it unless you have a paid subscription to Paramount+

The problem is that “I am often scared and angry about social change” does not inherently lend itself to interesting art. You can be as technically skilled as the greats, but art with nothing interesting to say is just a commodity.

Matt Walsh post on X: “Imagine if conservatives, rather than pathetically crawling around on the ground to lap up discarded pop culture crumbs, actually went out and advanced their own creative and artistic vision. Imagine if we used an event like this to actually elevate our own artists and make them famous. What a crazy thought.”

This is simply bonkers. The White House is in active discussions with DOJ about settling Trump's lawsuit against the IRS in his favor, *precisely because* a judge might soon throw it out. WH apparently wants DOJ to agree to "settle" the lawsuit *before* that happens. Utter insanity.

Is it legal for Trump to order a government agency to hand him a huge pile of taxpayer money? Note that the White House is directly discussing this with DOJ!

The gold, 22-foot Donald Trump statue definitely isn’t a false idol. You can tell because Trump’s pastor friend said of the new statue at his Doral golf course, “Let me be clear: this is not a golden calf.”

Michael! You know I am your biggest fan and in these shit times one of life's few remaining pleasures is something new by Slow Runner. Fucking fantastic. Also if you wanted to get rich you should have learned how to do something that isn't free, like cars or milkshakes

@lookparkmusic.com this song especially inspired by your life's work 🙏 You can tell by my follower count that slavish devotion to the FoW aesthetic has left me extremely rich and fulfilled (typing this on a nice desktop computer from my glass-bottom boat in Antigua)
