@t_heislen I myself am in that green 13% section, but I wouldn't call it "getting paid".

I would call it "all of that combined is still less than the royalties from a single play on commercial radio".

I actually like the service - but I don't consider them a revenue stream.

I mean, she doesn't explicitly SAY that "No Labels" dies with him, but a solid case can be made.

We're getting tons of news from Japan and that's good. But we need news from Taiwan. I've seen a few pictures and I'm seeing pictures like these:

@LiberalLibrarian It has been my overwhelming experience that the people who preach loudest and hardest about some sin or other is likely to be a person with overwhelming urges and desires to commit that very sin. That or they're trying to erase the very sin they've already committed by preaching against it.

I think they preach against them so loudly not to call out others, but to try to suppress the desires within.

("I can't be evil, look how loudly I'm against this sin!!!")

Dear Media:

Stop platforming RFK Jr. He the fucking court jester of this race, and should not be taken seriously.

The novelty of the fact that he's a Kennedy wore off long ago.

Any guitarist worth his salt would see the training wheels at the bottom of the case and be laughing their asses off.

Well, I would at any rate.

I've never been a huge Sprinsteen fan. I like some of his songs and he's one of the best lyricists I've ever seen, but a lot of his songs sound the same to me musically. I have always knows that he's a great performer, but I've never seen him live.

Until last night.

Holy Shit was I unprepared for that. Over 3 hours without a break - often calling out the beat to start the next song on the last chord of the previous one. A 6 song encore. One of the best shows I've ever seen.

I get it now.
