"The splendor and sophistication of these tracks heralded a new era for indie music: rooted in classic pop, rock, and folk but tied to the avant-garde; hashed out in rock clubs but fit for conservatories; spacious and ghostly yet utterly visceral at times."

After revisiting Grizzly Bear's YELLOW HOUSE recently, I've never been more convinced that it was a paradigm-shifting classic. A look back for its 20th anniversary:

Healthcare is being dismantled & is increasingly inaccessible due to cost. Flu season looms & COVID levels are rising. Illness most impacts marginalized groups who have higher risk of serious outcomes & fewer resources. Wearing an n95 in public is an act of resistance & community care.

Trump and RFK Jr. try again to upend vaccines for kids

President Trump signed an executive order on Monday about vaccines, saying children should get fewer. His administration has been blocked in the courts from changing the vaccine schedule.

will be telling anyone who will listen just how fantastic and meaningful the All The Feelings Tour was: Stars, Broken Social Scene, and Metric. three bands that I have been carrying with me for the past 20 years, since I was a teen. legends!

whoops I’m feeling slightly smug because my disabled ass has never stopped wearing N95s in public and (un)fortunately that means I am well-prepared for these conditions.

have to be okay feeling the despair today. when the indoor and outdoor air is unsafe, when gas is well over $4 per gallon, when it feels like the “best” Michigan summers are in the past. and throw in a multi-day pain flare for good measure.

On the same day an air sensor reached an AQI of 1000 in northern Michigan, Whitmer's EGLE issued permits to continue to prop up oil infrastructure. We are sacrificing clean water and clean air for the almighty fossil fuel $$$.

Today Michigan issued permits for a destructive #GreatLakes oil tunnel. Disregarding experts, every tribal nation, & 100,000 comments to EGLE and Gov Whitmer. Choosing Enbridge over protecting #PureMichigan. For shame. Our water is worth fighting for. Our fight is not over. #ShutDownLine5.
