I think the reason this topic resonates with me: Every night I watch a rock doc & every one has the band hitting the same wall. “And then came the 80s”. And you see bands other awkwardly trying to adjust their guitar sounds by adding synths. Or somehow adroitly transitioning.
Grateful Dead- Standing on the Moon/ Alabama Getaway
Journey-Open Arms
Starship- Nothing’s gonna stop us
Heart- What about love
Tina- Private dancer
ZZ Top- Sharp dressed man
Bruce- Tunnel Of Love
Petty- Free Falling/ I won’t back down
Seger- Shakedown/ Shame on the Moon

Here’s what’s really upsetting me.

When I began #Resistance tweeting, I expected vitriol & hate from the MAGA right. And I got plenty.

But for the past 3 months, all the meanness, all the unkind words have come from what I always considered “Our Side.”
Whether it’s being pummeled for being decent about a politician’s passing, being branded “neoliberal” or “corporatist” for saying something kind about a candidate that isn’t yours or receiving crass insensitivity about perceived anti-semirism, I thought We were better than this.
Am I too thin-skinned? Famously.

Am I incredibly naive about human behavior? Clearly.

Do I need to work on tuning out the negativity and not allow it impact my own voice? Yes. Just ask my therapist.

Help me understand. Trump was getting a Moscow tower, hacked DNC emails, and dirt on HRC.

What was Russia getting in return?

Is there something I’m missing besides complete ownership of the US president and a free stream of money laundering?
Please stop responding “isn’t that enough?”

Of course that’s enough.

I’m a hack comedy writer not a foreign affairs guru. There’s obviously a quid pro quo.

I just wanted to make sure there isn’t something I’m missing.
What role do we think money laundering plays?

Why was Deutsche Bank the only lender willing to still give Trump money?

What about Russian oligarchs laundering ill-gotten gains in Trump Tower?

Ok. Time to change my mood. I’m currently making my own personal Ultimate Jukebox, a playlist of the biggest, definitive pop hits of our lifetime. From Beatles to Bieber. More Shake It Off than Stairway to Heaven. Big, fun pop. Taking suggestions now...🎸❤️
I had a rough draft of about 800 songs, which I’m playing in shuffle to root out any clunkers. I was cruising. Blank Space went into Come on Eileen into ....Bobby Goldsboro’s Honey??? But now we’re back on track with J. Geils’ Centerfold 🎸🎸🎸
We just went from Ms. Jackson to Crazy Little Thing Called Love.

I think Shuffle is finally hitting its stride!!

“Trump Was Totally Caught Off Guard by the Cohen Plea”:
Inside Trumpworld, People Are Pooping.
vanityfair.com/news/2018/11/i…
Exactly what Cohen told Mueller during SEVENTY HOURS of interviews has been among the most unnerving unknowns for those closest to DT ever since Cohen began cooperating w the SCO in the summer.

“If anyone can 💥 Trump, it’s him,” a former West Wing official said in June.
💣 The detonation began on Thursday 11/29/18 when Cohen pleaded guilty to lying to Congress, accompanied by a detailed plea agreement, a new set of facts that begin to fill in a picture.

To the 🍄 camp, it was ominous. “The Cohen news is very bad,” a former WH staffer said.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

The Cars - Drive

A very haunting song.

Another' early 80's favorite, because the video is a perfect blend of the music and a story with hot Playmates and funny characters.

ZZ Top - Legs

Night Ranger - Sister Christian.

Another pretty creative use of video telling a story.

Me: exhausted, still tries to make a friend's show (missed it)

Reality: I'm at the house of blues in downtown Chicago and tbh ZZ Top did this song better, and muddy waters did the previous song better, and y'all gonna fuck up leadbelly next?
Man I misguessed that, they're fucking up bonnie raitt next
Ok this is as long as I can last being salty at folk doing their best, I'm being unfair, they are owning their versions of these blues standards, well done these clearly hardworking musicians

Whitehall officials are making up fantasy facts to sugarcoat the mistake of supporting the European Intervention Initiative (EII). They claim the EII is “separate from the EU”. This is incorrect, here’s why:
a. It was Macron’s idea. It currently only exists in his words.
b. Macron says the EII ‘allows for integration of EU armed forces’. The UK has always been against participating in military integration.
c. Macron describes the EII as one of six ‘keys’ to ‘European sovereignty’.
The EU Commission has started using this term (see below).
d. In this context, Macron describes the EII alongside five other integrating defence structures in various stages of planning or completion. He describes the EII as a ‘common (EU) intervention force’ which must have a common doctrine to act and a common defence budget.

Almost all of the Road Runner cartoons are available via the @BoomerangToons app.

I subscribed for $5 & decided I'm gonna watch & tweet about 'em all in chronological order, even the later, terrible ones, for which I have an irrational affection.

Here we go.

Boomerang lists them alphabetically not chronologically so Chuck Jones masterpieces sit side-by-side with 1960s atrocities (& later 'revival' attempts.)

I am going to start at the beginning. I will also be including Wile E. Coyote/Bugs Bunny & Ralph Wolf/Sam Sheepdog shorts, FYI
September 17, 1949: "Fast And Furry-ous"

Chuck Jones intended this short to be a parody of cat & mouse "chase" cartoons. Instead, he accidentally created the definitive chase cartoon series of all time.
