Now that many big advertisers have walked away over Musk’s antisemitic comments, he says the problem for X comes when those advertisers stop posting and sports pull away.
My favorite part of the "Santos Expelled From Congress" story is that, at least temporarily, the smirk has been wiped off of his face. What a disgrace. 311 members of the House voted to expel him, which means SOME Republicans DIDN'T. It's all about power, it's all about the vote counts.

It's clear to me...Alina Habba, Trump's attorney, is the most annoying human being on the planet (after Trump himself, of course). She's on the court steps in NY, doing her best Baghdad Bob impression, calling it a witch hunt, blah blah blah blah blah blah BLAH. JESUS. ANNOYING.
The debate over the "new Beatles song" has already bored me to tears.
It is what it is...an unfinished Lennon track that Paul & Ringo finished.
George didn't like it, apparently.
But Paul & Ringo were and ARE Beatles, so if it brought them joy, let them be joyous, for God's sake.
For medical reasons, my show There Once Was A Note is on "indefinite hiatus." As soon as everything has been addressed and resolved, the show will return. Until then, apologies for the disruption and thanks for understanding.
THANK YOU to everyone for the follows, and I am doing my best to keep up and follow back. For ARTISTS who have followed me, I'm making my way through the wilderness, one step at a time, but I will check out your music to see if it's right for my radio show. ❤️
New Digital Art..."Hey Joe."
Original image extracted from Roy's "Hey Joe Live In Austin" video. Bounced back and forth between two software programs with enhancements and filters in each until desired result was achieved.
AI...I can't take credit for it beyond entering in the text prompt and choosing among the output variables. But it IS what I was hoping for. I've really been into art lately. This kind of thing represents images in my mind that want out, into the physical realm.
My mom never served chili of any kind when I was a kid. I first ate chili when I moved out. I've made homemade a few times but it's more than I'm gonna eat and I don't like freezing it. THIS is the greatest boon to mankind in decades. WOLF. Discovered it in Texas, loved it ever since.
THIS SATURDAY, our pal Mike Lidskin has the week off, so he has graciously allowed me to poach the first hour of his normal airtime. THAT'S RIGHT...we're goin' for FOUR HOURS, baby...10 AM to 2 PM Eastern on woodyradio.com ,

As soon as Wenner moved Rolling Stone's editorial offices from SF to NY in 1977, the magazine pivoted from credibility & solid rock journalism to become just one more whoring, trendsucking "celebrity" + "lifestyle" rag. Springsteen manager Jon Landau was the only R&RHOF member who sided with Wenner.
I know that the "invitation" system here ultimately limits the speed of this platform's growth, but I'm happy it's in place. I'm seeing a lot of cool, kind, enlightened people here, unlike the platform that drove them to Bluesky in the first place. I'd hate to see that change.
