Dang. I just learned from @SwitchedOnPop that surf guitar god Dick Dale was of Lebanese descent and studied Arab music intensely when he was young.
Should have been obvious, I know. But still. Mind blown.
And I'm happy to report, via @ScottMadin, that Dick Dale is still with us at the age of 81. My apologies for the past tense.
I leave you with Dick Dale's version of Hava Nagila—from his second album, King of the Surf Guitar (1963).
Okay. Dick's playing Brooklyn next month. See you there.

Louis CK tries to book a set. Club owner says yes, then reads up in detail on what he did, reaches out to friends and a CK victim for advice, and cancels the gig. jezebel.com/the-owner-of-o…
And yes, the club owner is a woman.
One thing about this story: It doesn't surprise me at all that she didn't know the specifics of the allegations when CK reached out. Not everyone follows the details of stories like this, even in their own industry.

A weird tack for a guy whose whole pitch is his elder-statesman avuncularity to take. "I don't want to run, but all the kids in the race are crap, so here I am" is the opposite of the tone I'd have expected him to set.
Just a reminder that his instincts for primary-race messaging have never been any good, I guess.
"We have a great, deep field, and I'm honored to be running alongside this crew. Whichever of us wins the nomination would be a far better president than Trump, and if it's not me, I'll be working night and day to be sure they get to prove it" is Biden's natural lane right now.

One more thing on youth voting: There are a lot of folks in my mentions saying kids aren’t cognitively developed enough to vote. But it’s not clear to me what that means.
At 12, the typical kid is more than able to meet baseline standards for voting—understanding what an election is, learning about candidates, managing the act of voting.
When we bar kids from making choices they’re not mature enough to make, it’s generally because we’re worried that they’ll do harm to themselves or others if allowed to choose.

We all deal with issues or own way. I made this music video using song “If You want love” by NF last night. A local musician that I enjoy.

God Bless 👇🏼

God - The bottom of the rabbit-hole.

We have spoken about the Deep State, we delved further into the Luciferian stuff, and now, the final frontier is God. Understanding this will make everything else make perfect sense

....

#qanon
1st, know that all religions have been hijacked by the Luciferian Cult so we have been fed invalid information. These Luciferians have also found a way to "disconnect" us from God. Fluoride was one way because our Pineal Gland is like an antenna that downloads info from God.

..
The God of fear, anger, jealousy, ect... is another gimmick the Luciferians laid on us by altering the Old Testament. Erase that entirely from memory & imagine God being LOVE incarnate. The only thing love incarnate ever does is love. Nothing more, nothing less.
