When all of this is over, when all the tell-all books have been printed, all the trials concluded, all the people with nothing left to fear by speaking up... we're going to find out it's all been so much worse than we ever thought it was. That the whole thing was absolutely and totally awful.

Sometimes I’m asked how I learn new songs so quickly. In the case of Never Getting Laid by Sabrina Carpenter, it’s because its chord progression is the same as the one from…the American Dad Theme Song.

A local reporter asked me for a statement in my capacity as SONC President in reaction to recent announcements for the LA 2028 Olympic Games. My reply, which I expect not to make it to print, is as follows. Today's crises of severe social and political turmoil are much more pressing than LA28.

"The Olympic Games are meant to unite the world in sport, but in this present environment of turmoil and crisis, more pressing matters include a gargantuan fight against authoritarianism, combating abject cruelty to marginalized communities, and severe social and political issues of immediate concern. No one is free until the most vulnerable amongst us are treated as equal and at present, we are failing our immigrant and transgender communities, including athletes from these communities. I hope the Olympics in 2028 will signal a return to values of inclusion and community through strong rejection of hatred, division, exclusion, and discrimination."

The plan here is to employ logical fallacy, confirmation bias, to ignore the 99% satisfaction rate for the 1% regret (compared to ~15% for non-trans care eg knee surgery), and use that to justify banning gender affirming care for ALL ages. It’s a GOP-led genocide. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

If you aren’t yet watching Cory Booker’s 24-hour long speech in the US Senate, you might want to head over to his YouTube channel to watch history in the making. He’ll soon pass Strom Thurmond’s anti-civil rights filibuster for longest all-time floor speech, a very fitting record about to be set.

I grew up playing along with Nancy Bea from home, following in her footsteps on the Dodger Stadium organ, and currently play based on her style for Ducks. The sports world will miss this music legend, the best organist in Dodgers history.
