4 Screenshots from the movie "Groundhog Day" (1993): First, a man wearing glasses and a hat excitedly greets another man in a town square, with the subtitle "Ned!" visible. Second, a man sits in a vehicle with a groundhog on his lap, looking determined as he drives. Third, a man observes an intricately carved ice sculpture of an angel, surrounded by an audience behind a wooden fence. Fourth, a man plays the piano on stage, accompanied by a double bass player, with a backdrop of green foliage and soft lighting.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Someone remake β€œIt’s a Wonderful Life” but Mr. Potter believes that hoarding is morally required so he can devote resources to delivering a far future with trillions of humans while George Bailey is like, β€œGosh Darnit!

How to quit Spotify This Black Friday, here's a guide to finding the best Spotify alternative

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio qualityβ€”you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

Spotify is helping ICE recruit more agents to:

1) infringe our rights
2) terrorize our communities
3) disappear legal residents
4) smash into cars & private homes
5) tackle & detain lawmakers

Social media is full of people sharing their Spotify Wrapped results β€” while Spotify is full of ICE recruitment ads.

As long as Spotify is willing to take money from ICE, they don’t need (and don’t deserve) free advertising on our social feeds.

Can I let you in on a little secret?

Billionaire philanthropy isn’t charity.

It’s PR to distract you from low wages, labor exploitation, and a tax system that’s rigged for the rich.

Over the past week, the Trump regime has flip-flopped on using contingency funds to fund SNAP multiple times.

Meanwhile, 42 million Americans are still at risk of going hungry while Trump sows confusion and chaos.

Don’t forget what’s at stake here.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Christianity, distilled to its essence IMHO, is Matthew 25. I was sick, and you nursed me; I was alone, and you comforted me; etc. We see the face of God in the kindness of strangers. We ARE all community and the face of God for each other. πŸ’•. Matthew was a real 1.
