GATEKEEPERWork with Spotify and have a #1 hit podcast? Great, you get to be called a "grifter" by (laughing quietly) Bill Simmons. Leaving Spotify under the terms of your contract? Simmons threatens to get publicly drunk with a mic and spill stories. Spotify + Rogan + Simmons...they can have each other.

GenX lady perhaps a little bit cool. Now #Buffalo; past San Francisco/Tahoe/NYC/Boston. 🇫🇮 . Dog- & catlady.

AnnaleeRead an article today about why Americans think alcohol has health benefits and it's apparently another "well the French are healthy and they do X so it's healthy to do X."

The secret is access to health care. It's always access to health care.

Let’s be clear — it wastes public money to NOT do it.

First song of the day, in honor of my awesome friend Karen who died in 2010 at 42. She was a talented artist, writer and musician, as well as the queen of dork dancing to Wham! at high school dances. I miss her and her amazing energy. #Deezer #Wham #FuckOvarianCancer
Theophile EscargotEveryone laughs at quaint old Video Stores, but you could just go to one and get ANY MOVIE. You didn't have monthly subscriptions to the Disney Video Store, Paramount Video Store etc etc and try to work out which Video Stores have the most movies you want to watch.
Really amazing how the narrative on the #Bills and #JoshAllen has shifted this week. It's like the collective NFL media has gone contrarian on the Bills and they are all crowing like "We had the Bills' number ALL ALONG."
Currently swimming around my recurring once-every-five-years-or-so obsession with The Last Waltz. The phenomenon started in my high school years (mid-1980s). #TheLastWaltz #TheBand #1976 #SanFrancisco #DontDoIt #Caravan
