Re: The *ugh* 2024 US Election Thread
I guess we have to do this, right? A whole lot of nose-holding going forward! Anyway, here's a short interview with Allan "13 Keys" Lichtman, who is inclined toward Biden being re-elected right now: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/26/allan-lichtman-prediction-presidential-election I th...

Re: Parenting (...or My Precious Snowflake is Better Than Yours)
I wonder if there have ever been experiments or pilot projects to see what happens when parents are barred from attending kids' organized sports. No fans allowed except other kids. I'm sort of stunned that there haven't been more shootings at kids sports events. All these hopped up asshole parents ...

Re: The Great Thread of YouTube Magnificence!
Absolutely one of my faves. I put it on tons of playlists, either people get the gag and enjoy the song or... don't get the gag, and enjoy the song.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑26 Apr 2024, 5:42pm
The genius of TMBG is that they can produce a smoking electropop song that also teases club culture.

Re: Friday Poll #13 Heaven v Hell
Dylan, of course. A powerful meditation on loss that turned out to be an earworm to boot. My old band did a hardcore punk version of the song (after the first verse which we did in an arch Dylan style with me doing weird harmonica shit). Great song.

Re: Sex Pistols
A bit late to this, and lots of thoughtful conversation. Just wanted to react to Doc's generally correct point about contextualizing this behavior in its place in the 60s/70s (well, 1980, but same point). I get that, but reading the alleged account, it seems the victim objected to Jones's actions (a...

One of Trump's leading VP candidates is a literal dog murderer: https://twitter.com/KatiePhang/status/1783881929718108184 Disclaimer: as with all 2024 election posts, I don't mean to necessarily imply a relative moral standing between Republicans and Democrats, or that anyone should vote for a Democ...

Re: How many?
I know other forums have the option to have specific sub forums be for registered members (or full members vs new members or whatever). I don't know how much of a PIA that would be for Inder to turn the downloads/request line subforum into a members only forum or whatever, but I would support that o...

Re: The All Smiths/Morrissey Thread
On the subject of novels, has any artist/musician actually ever written a novel that is even half decent? I tried both Steve Earle and Nick Caves efforts and did not get far with either. I did have some hopes for Julian Copes book and actually finished it, but can't say I particularly liked it whic...
