Righto champions... I won't be around to collate into a playlist again same as last week. But here's the theme for this #JukeboxFridayNight - Songs that have a place name in the title (country, city, town, street). Purely because i've always liked this John Vanderslice tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j4LwGqLB5c it has such pretty & wistful chords.

Elon Musk spent $44 billion to buy a platform in order to ban journalists for saying things he doesn't like.

Don't ever let these cowards get away with claiming they support free speech.

Tucker Carlson is once again using his platform to spread anti-LGBTQ+ lies, this time about Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

After he claimed Secretary Pete somehow "lied" about being gay, his husband Chasten ably clapped back with a much-needed truth bomb.

Read Chasten's response here: https://www.comicsands.com/chasten-buttigieg-carlson-gay-lie-2658790963.html?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=toot&utm_campaign=sand

Shutting this rhetoric down.

Hello UK! I’m tired but excited to get ready for my London stage debut in Allegiance, which is based on my real life story and experience in U.S. internment camps during World War II. #NeverForget
Mark Harmon and Ellen Pompeo decided to leave their shows in the 19th season. It was a hell of a run for both of 'em.

Just got a #comic back from #CGC. (#Daredevil #7, 3.0), and I've found it's renewed my sourness about professional grading. On one hand, it allows a buyer and a seller to do a transaction w/o argument. We both agree on the grade, because that's what CGC says it is. On the other, it's just become a cover collection, hasn't it? All that art on the inside, forgotten and ignored. Yes, I know you can find much of it online, but when I got to read Amazing Fantasy 15 in my hands? It was real history.

@atomicpoet Honestly, the way we've grown so accustomed to having our hand held! And I say this as one of the least tech-y people you'd ever meet. But my goodness, no one wants a learning curve- everything needs to be given to them. I'm fumbling along like the next newbie, but it's really not that hard, to be honest. In fact, I'm kind of enjoying the newness of it all.
