David Crosby, an original member of the Byrds and a founder of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, has died. He was 81.

Mr. Crosby was inducted twice into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. He brought jazz influences to both groups, in the process broadening the possibilities of vocally driven folk-rock.

@estherschindler I haven't had much practice swooning, but I think I got it this time!

@pennyphilosophy I was 11 and had a pair of metal skates. While skating my feet went up into the air and I fell on my back knocking the wind out of me for the first time. While laying there and wondering if I would ever get my breath back. You never forget that, That's how I feel about the world we live in now.

America; Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
GOP; Give me your liars. your crooks, your perverts, your con men. your swindlers and grifters...

@MLClark That is a thoughtful, interesting essay. I'm with you to a point. I have had similar requests to pray for someone. I am not religious. But, I "pray." Not to god. I believe all the energy in the universe is part of us. I tap into it.

A tribute to MLK
Martin Luther King Jr. The Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We celebrate him today in America. He is world famous, but he is indisputably one of us. He was an American. He was a citizen like you and me. He is an American founding father like Washington.

@DJNoneYa Her attitude and behavior is so far from what we knew of Elvis. She was unlikable.

@Susandoyle I always loved the Mamas & Papas and enjoyed listening again. But, looking at them now, they seem somewhat awkward as performers.

@YouGiveMeFever I sure hope you are right. Trump is making such a big stink over this, that Biden may incur more penalties than otherwise regarding this oversight.

The Taliban have reportedly ordered male doctors NOT to treat female patients.

So, if women are BANNED from university & can’t study to become doctors, and now can’t be treated by male doctors, then what are they supposed to do? Die from sickness?

Good news. counter.social is again linkable from the bird site and is NO LONGER being falsely flagged as 'unsafe'.

Musk is polling again. This time asking if he should step down as head of Twitter. Is this how he runs Space X and Tesla, by polling?
