Soundgarden is being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Rest in Peace Chris Cornell, and thank you for one of the best albums of all time
Ok, so they were just NOMINATED, but they'll always be in the Rock in Roll Hall of Fame of my heart
But also, just how could you nominate Soundgarden and not actually induct them

Trump walks back his brazenly corrupt decision to use the G-7 as a taxpayer-funded promotion of one of his businesses, but he uses the opportunity to....promote the business again.
As we pointed out recently, Trump has a habit of doing this kind of thing citizensforethics.org/trump-promote-…
There's no evidence Trump offered to hold the G-7 at "ZERO COST," but that would still be a giant conflict of interest because the event itself⁠—days of coverage of world leaders at Trump's private, luxury resort⁠⁠—would have endless promotional value

We had a pomegranate for some reason, so I made fesenjān for the first time. Tasty!
It's funny how I just threw the name of the dish out like I'm fluent in northern Iranian cuisine when, in reality, I just Googled "pomegranate chicken recipe"

President Trump reported $434 million in personal revenue last year from properties he still profits from as president. Almost $76 million of that came just from Doral, the luxury Miami property he just granted the G-7 to.
The normal presidential salary is $400k
And unlike any other president or major-party candidate in the last 40+ years, Trump has fought tooth and nail to keep his tax returns private, so we don't know how much, if any, taxes he paid on all of this.

I've been wanting to add my 2 cents to the #RockHall discussion for a while know, but I just couldn't figure out the whole blog thing. So here it goes. (1/22)
I'm writing this from the following perspective: that I basically have unlimited money, and what I'd do if I established myself as Chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, and CEO/President of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame + Museum. (2/22)
First, I would sit in on the nominating committee just to hear out how they do things. So the first year will likely see no significant changes. (3/22)

They cry in the dark
So you can't see their tears
They hide in the light
So you can't see their fears
Forgive and forget
All the while
Love and pain.

1/ TODAY'S TIDBITS
2018DEC13 On MSNBC today, J. Edgar Comey bragged that he personally sent FBI agents Strzok and Pientka to interview General Flynn at the White House.
2/ He said it wasn't standard to contact a subject directly, but that he decided to go for it and that "maybe he wouldn't have gotten away with it" in a more organized administration. (This took place in January 2017 so the administration was, at most, days old.)
3/ Judge Emmett Sullivan, who is overseeing Flynn's case, has ordered the Old Carp to produce all exculpatory information concerning Flynn by mid-day tomorrow, including all FBI interview summaries (FD-302) about Flynn.

45 Days Of @ElvisCostello: a twitter megathread in anticipation of the Oct 12 release date of LOOK NOW, the new LP by Elvis Costello & The Imposters

This is either a bright idea or a brilliant mistake, but this is only, this is only, this is only the beginning...
I did something similar to this 5 years ago, in anticipation of EC & @theroots' Wise Up Ghost LP, on tumblr.

(You can still find all those posts if you look, although a lot of the YouTube links etc are now dead ends. It was 40 Days Of EC then, so for 2018 I'm upping it to 45.)
Mostly I will be going chronologically from the early years right up to the present, but it feels right to start out with Costello's 2002 song, "45."

Inspired by @TouchMyPoly 's 30 days of Mariah, and the knowledge that ~20 million fewer people will care, I'm doing the 30-day Chris Cornell song challenge...
Day 1: A song with a colour in the title.

Such choice! Black Hole Sun, Black Rain, Fell on Black Days... But when @tessairini said the "greatest loss of a cultural concept jettisoned between gen x and millennials is 'sellout'" - gotta be Black Saturday

Honestly, these lyrics are so brutal that I can imagine my mother saying them to me.
