    Non English Songs even a geek can love....

    luv - Fuwa Fuwa (Live Amazon Music Studio 2024) Japanese band that describes themselves as "Neodisco" although this has some jazz pop touches to it. They definitely got the Nile Rodgers 70's guitar driven dance vibe down.

    Democrats Moving Away From The Party

    https://x.com/GregTSargent/status/1893269812559728648 Remarkable: Trump's own pollster just found that in swing House districts, Dems lead by 5 points and voters want tax policy to prioritize working people, per Politico. Yet GOP is about to slash the safety net and give the rich huge tax cuts! New piece: https://newrepublic.com/article/191841/trump-approval-rating-pollster-bad-news-warning
  3. https://x.com/Billbrowder/status/1893217423471337854?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet This is outrageous. To coerce Ukraine to sign over its natural resources, Elon Musk is threatening to cut off Starlink. I guess the appropriate response from the EU would be to ban sale of Tesla’s if he does that.

    Meh. Let's see in 2026 in the mid-term elections how many have moved away.

    Democrats moving away from the party...yeah, right.
  8. Now he’s defending OJ and justifying the Not Guilty verdict. No, I was not defending OJ. I said that I understood how the "Not Guilty" was reached by the jurors. I didn't say that I agreed with it and I went on to point out that I thought OJ had committed the murders.

    OJ Simpson dead at 76.

    Exactly. If you followed the trial, audio tapes were presented to the jury of Mark Fuhrman talking to a writer who interviewed him to help her, as an advisor, with a crime novel she was planning to write. The transcripts of the tapes were printed in the L.A. Times and it in Fuhrman talked about planting evidence as a police officer to help convict someone he thought was guilty, and as such the ends justified the means. Fuhrman later claimed it was not him talking from personal experience but rather speaking from the point-of-view of a bad cop. However the tapes were damning by themselves IMO, and were enough to create a reasonable belief in the minds of the jurors that evidenced had been planted by Fuhrman to frame OJ. As such I was not really surprised by the verdict, although I thought that OJ had indeed committed the murders.
  10. It should be understood that if she had been allowed to do that, then tomorrow there could be a dozen or maybe even fifty doing a silent vigil in the buffer zone. And why should she get a pass to breatk the law because she is a granny?

    Haruo Chikada & Vibratones - Soul Life (1981) A serious 80's J-Pop attempt to capture both the sound of The Police and Sting's vocals, which somehow works without coming across as a parody.
  14. She was in a restricted zone due to the potential harassment of patients entering or leaving the abortion center. She was warned and refused to leave, so she was arrested. The result would be the same in this country.

  16. I have read that too, mostly here...but can you show one LGBTQ organization that has dropped the "T" or has said that trans folks are not part of their community?
  17. The Gay Men's Chorus is a boring snoozefest, I doubt there are few in the LGBTQ crowd that will miss them.
  18. I wasn't talking about you individually.
