The Trump regime has abandoned the constitution:

- declared war without Congressional authorization

- ignoring multiple court orders

- impounding Congressional authorized funds

- ignoring the freedom of speech and assembly

It’s a lawless regime that has no legitimacy.

I did very, very little, but Phil and Alfredo were so kind to still thank me in this gorgeous, comprehensive new book they put together of all of Jonathan Richman's photos of The Velvet Underground at the Boston Tea Party. Highly recommended for VU freaks. See final image here for ordering info.

Yes, but that’s specifically the em dash. This is just a single unnecessary dash.

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

This is the reason behind the Trump
administration’s intense desire to ban Talarico content.

If they lose the evangelicals, they lose all their power.

Protester: I've never protested before in my entire life, but I watched 4th and 5th grade kids run away from our own government. I never want to see that again.

In his songs, Tom T. Hall lent his voice to real folks - The Boston Globe When he ran out of tales inspired by his own life, “The Storyteller” captured sketches from the lives of strangers he met along the way.

I interviewed Jerry for this Tom T. Hall obituary www.bostonglobe.com/2021/08/26/a...

RIP & thanks for all the music, Mr. Jerry Kennedy who passed away this week. He's the opening guitar you hear on Orbison's "Pretty Woman," the lead on Wynette's "Stand By Your Man," he's on Blonde on Blonde album, Tom T. Hall's producer. One of the greats, without a doubt. youtu.be/REOgLaIQD5U?...

Really enjoyed interviewing him for my book all those years ago. He was what you'd call "a real character."

Really surprised that over a week after his death, there have been zero obituaries for Alan Trustman, the Boston banker turned screenwriter who wrote The Thomas Crown Affair and Bullitt. A byproduct of understaffed newspapers, I'd wager?
