Every few years I reread the opening chapter of Slaughterhouse Five. Good clean true sentences that help me stop performing and just write.

Vera and Bring the Boys Back Home. This is the third of our Encores from the Us and Them tour. This is the first one with any overdubs, not an easy trick to pull off remotely, luckily the Band are all brilliant. Read more: https://t.co/D687AttkzD

Here is sagacity.
1. All right, fine, I'm waiting for a frozen pizza to cook, might as well rant about libertarianism in the meantime. I wanna focus not on the psychology of adherents (though, as one of the adherents in question for a few years, I could) or the practical difficulties, but ...

A rule of thumb: If you're lying about nonexistent voter fraud, if you're limiting polling places, if you're forcing people to line up to vote in a pandemic, even the old and the infirm, then it seems you're basically admitting most Americans don't want you to be president.

It truly boggles my mind how anyone can see a $6 billion policing budget in ONE city alone - which is more than we spend on health, youth, housing, and homelessness services here *combined* - and say, “You know what will fix police brutality? More money”

As part of a two-night conversation facilitated by @oprah across all Discovery networks, @ava will discuss @LeapAction and share our vision for action.
I’ve been talking about racism on TV now for over 35 years, but I don’t recall a moment quite like this one. And just like many of you, I’ve been talking with friends and I noticed the same questions kept coming up: Is this the moment that will finally change our country?

Where has @paulkoretz been? Are Rodney King and #GeorgeFloyd the only cases of police brutality he's heard of? Other "horrific" murders that he might wanna google: #GrecharioMack #AlbertRamonDorsey #WakieshaWilson #EricRivera #RedelJones #BrotherAfrica #JesseRomero #MelyCorado+++
