@ruledbymercuryy I don't believe this for a minute. Even in 1986 this list would have cost more.

found my mom’s grocery receipt from 2006, and I just fell to my knees omg…🧎🏾‍♀️

@mistressdivy Yes. Yes it was.

People who actually lived through the Thriller era, was it actually THAT BIG?

There's a documentary on Netflix about these pioneers titled "A Band Called Death" I urge all fans of music history to watch. They had the opportunity to sign a major record deal but they wouldn't change their name. Fast forward 10 years and heavy, aggressive nihilistic punk/metal was a multimillion dollar industry.

@davidclowery Jonathan Richman still plays with no strap

This is correct. If you were really country and of a certain age you didn't own a guitar strap. You did this or alternately used a small footstool or box.

@DrDobberstein Please keep this coming. In the US the press has completely “forgotten” about this story.

In der letzte Woche hat sich im Epstein-Skandal wieder viel getan: - Melania wird immer mehr zur Gefahr für die Präsidentschaft - die Journalistin Katie Phang verklagt das Justizministerium auf Veröffentlichung der Akten - in London werden Wohnungen entdeckt, in denen Epstein 1/

as a radiologist may set two X-rays side by side to examine, we can see now, placing Butler PA & the WH correspondents incident side by side, that the same scenario was planned in each instance; in the first, the would-be assassin was in clear view for some minutes on a rooftop, before violence broke out; more recently, the would-be assassin (for whom Secret Service officers were waiting) was apprehended before he could draw a weapon & shoot--before he was anywhere near his alleged targets. considering this, it might seem that Butler PA was bungled & that no one was intended to be shot let alone killed; the D.C. event may have been bungled too but at least no one died & of many present, only RFK Jr's abandoned wife suffered a public humiliation.

How to go down stairs quickly lol

Child: I know your name. Mamdani. Obama: What’s his first name? Child: Mayor.

@Ziggys_Duck That is a really, really tough call. So many contenders.

Who was the most tragic character on The Wire?

@babybeginner Lol They are already here in many NYC neighborhoods, and none of the above is happening. In fact, these areas are now cleaner than before. Do you think people don't use the spaces between cars as toilets?

Dear New Yorkers who have never seen dumpsters. Let me explain what this will do. 1. They will stink. They will get all kinds of gross liquid in them and they will stink. 24/7. Wait for the summer. That’s gonna be so charming. 2. Trash will pile up over and around them. Bc it ALWAYS does. 3. Parking way up. $$$$. I know you don’t think you care but it will cost someone more money which will be passed onto you. 4. These could easily bc homeless shelters. The trash will then be tossed on the streets. 5. Rats will find a way. It will smell like food to them at all times. It will attract them. 6. It’s going to cost a bunch of money. 7. It will be UGLY. They will be covered with all kinds of gross garbage materials. Hence the stinking mentioned earlier. The beautiful streets will be packed with these. Imagine a 100 story building. How big of a dumpster do they need? 8. Will they be moved every other day like cars? How will the street sweepers get around them? 9. And other stuff I haven’t even thought of yet.

@davidclowery Bless his heart 🤣🤣

This Senior Rolling Stone Writer thinks this is me being a total dick to him. FOLKS DO NOT CRITICIZE SENIOR ROLLING STONE WRITERS.

@davidclowery The replies do not disappoint 💥💥💥

This is music journalism folks. Senior rolling stone writer.

@steelydante I’m looking for any evidence that Rolling Stone ever published this list, and finding none

@_Zeets "New Yorkers are so rude" 🤣 No, we just know how to walk on sidewalks

Manhattan is so great if you want to see people who have never walked on a sidewalk or in public before. Fully grown human beings who have no spatial awareness or sense of direction.

To the uninitiated, yes this is about how fast a lot of people who grew up in New York City walk.

Some of you need to take a basic civics lesson on the United States federal government. There is nothing Democrats can do to stop what's going on right now. You gave Republicans all the power. Start calling for THEM to do something.

Let me be clear: I don't think trump is dead. I do believe he is severely ill, possibly incapacitated, and likely not able to communicate himself. Why? It's not because of the threats of war crimes in his Easter post. It's not because he said "Praise be to Allah," as weird as that was. It's not because he dropped an F bomb, saying "open the fuckin' Strait you crazy bastards." It's not even because of the apostrophe, although it is unusual that he used it correctly. It's that his posts have suspiciously become error-free, and we all know he has neither "the best words" nor the best punctuation or grammar. It's that this attention whore, who loves to be on camera, has been off camera for 48-72 hours. It's that this compulsive liar, who claimed to be the most transparent, has been the LEAST transparent, hiding the reasons for his drooping face, his bruised hands, cankles, and the medical device strapped to his rear end or side. If the President of the United States is incapacitated, and unable to perform his duties, the American people deserve to be notified. And the 25th Amendment has to be invoked. And sadly, that would make JD Vance the current POTUS. But you lying fuckers have to come clean about this, while Stephen Miller is busy recalibrating trump's next fake post.

This album is one of my favorite albums of all time. Might be in my top 10. Cut at Woodland Studios in East Nashville (back when East Nashville was a little more on the dangerous side—my favorite time), I probably listened to this album 100 times the year it came out. “Big Dipper” taught me how to be a sour pessimist when I had way too much positive energy in my life. “I Hate My Generation” could not have been more spot on for me an my generation even though I wouldn’t know it for 20 years. “How Can I Live Without You” still is a song I reference all the time during production… This album (and @davidclowery ‘s sardonic take on life within it) is kinda like a “drunk intellectual bitter uncle in a box” for any sheltered suburb kid from the 90’s…
