@rocknrollofall We are the World

What song's writing and creation story impressed you the most?

This bird is a Dire Straits fan and sings their songs

@Acyn Does he just invite random people there to praise him? Don't answer that, I know

Rick Harrison from Pawn Stars: I'm a history buff and I know a lot about this White House thing and everything. Literally, he's gonna go down as maybe the best president ever. I love this guy.

Huey never let me down.

@CuriosityonX Clearly Dan Aykroyd

If aliens requested a meeting with a sole individual to represent the human race, whom should we send?

@consequence What a dink

Kid Rock kicked off his "Freedom 250 Tour" with a pre-recorded showing him flying in US Army Apache helicopters with Pete Hegseth. In the video, Kid Rock lands at a military base in his private jet and is greeted by Hegseth. "Mr. Secretary, what are you doing here?" Rock asks. "I'm going to your show," Hegseth declares, before offering to give the musician a ride in an Apache. What follows is roughly 60 seconds of action footage featuring Rock and Hegseth in the choppers, along with several close-ups of Hegseth's tattoos, for some reason. consequence.net/2026/05/kid-ro…

@bobdylan Howdy Bob, hope you are groovy. A new Rippin' E Brakes album has come along. I hope you enjoy it -Derek

"Ramble On" is 56 years old and Robert Plant just walked onto The Late Show and made it sound like he wrote it this morning.

@HGRLifestyle305 @NeezoStudios I guess Nashville really is the new LA

We built this scale model to launch Paramount Nashville. Standing 7.5 ft Tall, 60 Stories @NeezoStudios

@shooterjennings Well, you'd ❤️ the Rippin' E Brakes

I find myself leaning more towards imperfections in recordings now because of the existence of AI. Mistakes, finger-fowls and wild vocal takes just feel so much more valuable now. Before, somehow everyone was seeking sonic conformity, and now it seems like we’re seeking things that sound human.

@KrisFromMerrCo @CoryBooker Kris gives no praise with haste!

@CoryBooker alright, Cory.... Not bad, not bad. Now, go oppose Trump dragging us into WWIII & withholding the Epstein files.

We can’t just be the party of no. We need big ideas to help working people get ahead. Here’s one from me: no tax on your first $75K of household income, a bigger child tax credit, and ending tax loopholes exploited by billionaires and big corporations.

@RandyRRQuaid @cybertruck So could my moped

My @cybertruck could run the country!

@seanonolennon Man, you said it. I could really go for a wiffle ball home run derby

Being a grown up means it’s not easy to get a group of friends together to play sports anymore.

@1ElectricMag Rippin' E Brakes

I Need New Music!

I'm still having a tough time listening to Jimmy Buffett since he sailed away. That guy had an impact

@Jaxweah Me

@tmhrdy_77 I thought you were cologne until recently when I discovered you were the dastardly character in The Reverent. Great acting!

@jkbjournalist What a journey it's been since your article. Thank you!
