Record Story Haul spin: Prince Buster on Tour from Blue Beat Records. Hand numbered limited run. Recorded when Prince Buster toured the UK in 1967. Excellent record, though there are a few screams that are too loud, but those girls were feeling it!
Absolutely fantastic record (despite the screams)... one of my first '60s ska albums I picked up when I was younger. It still holds up!

The grotesque & beautiful dreams of 1920s cinema remain just as powerful today
One of the most creatively exciting periods in moviemaking saw the likes of Maya Deren, Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí bringing cinematic surreality to the masses. A new film, Gerald Fox’s ‘Kinaesthesia’, unpacks it all.
This is why @deafcrocodile.bsky.social does a legitimate public service

A lot of people are quick to say they *can't* give up Amazon.
Okay, don't.
Just don't make it your default. That thing you threw in your basket that you can get elsewhere? Get it elsewhere.
If everyone still buying from Amazon reduced their spending by 20%, Bezos would be screaming bloody murder
Democrats reaction to the Swalwell story is appropriate.
If he was a Republican, he’s go up at least 5 points with their primary voters.
I would just like to reiterate that if Eric Swalwell and his attorney believe any statements that my wife and I have made are not true, he should sue us immediately. He can DM me, and I’ll let him know where to serve us. But this will never happen.
Yup! He spent time and money on this race knowing full well about this skeleton in his closet.
The amazing, letter-perfect performance of NASA this week is a ferocious rebuke to the right-wing fools who constantly tell us that for-profit businesses always do a job better than the government.

Spanish PM Pedro calls for the IMMEDIATE ARREST of Netanyahu
He said: "Netanyahu launched the worst possible unjustified attack against Lebanon. His contempt for life and international law is intolerable. He is a criminal that must be arrested immediately.” #cdnpoli
If he’d threaten to murder an entire civilization, you can be pretty sure he raped those kids.
You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.
I’ve got this one but don’t remember jiving with it much. In a different frame of musical mind these days so should bring it out again.
Happy 86th birthday to Charles Wright!

Lee on Epstein Files: We’re not going to stop “bitching” about this.
Why is somebody who has a lot of money able to buy this much protection? Why should you be able to get away with heinous crimes like this if you’re a president, a prince, or a CEO?
I mean, you don't really need a translator
The following is the text of the email that Penelope Hegseth sent to her son, Pete Hegseth, on April 30, 2018, as he was in the middle of divorcing his wife, Samantha. One sentence was redacted by The New York Times for privacy reasons.
Son, I have tried to keep quiet about your character and behavior, but after listening to the way you made Samantha feel today, I cannot stay silent. And as a woman and your mother I feel I must speak out.. You are an abuser of women — that is the ugly truth and I have no respect for any man that belittles, lies, cheats, sleeps around, and uses women for his own power and ego. You are that man (and have been for years) and as your mother, it pains me and embarrasses me to say that, but it is the sad, sad truth. I am not a saint, far from it.. so don't throw that in my face, but your abuse over the years to women (dishonesty, sleeping around, betrayal, debasing, belittling) needs to be called out.
Sam is a good mother and a good person (under the circumstances that you created) and I know deep down you know that. For you to try to label her as "unstable" for your own advantage is despicable and abusive. Is there any sense of decency left in you? She did not ask for or deserve any of what has come to her by your hand. Neither did Meredith. I know you think this is one big competition and that we have taken her side... bunk... we are on the side of good and that is not you. (Go ahead and call me self-righteous, I dont' care) Don't you dare run to her and cry foul that we shared with us... that's what babies do. It's time for someone (I wish it was a strong man) to stand up to your abusive behavior and call it out, especially against women
![We still love you, but we are broken by your behavior and lack of character. I don't want to write emails like this and never thought I would. If it damages our relationship further, then so be it, but at least I have said my piece. [Redacted]
And yes, we are praying for you (and you don't deserve to know how we are praying, so skip the snarky reply)
I don't want an answer to this... I don't want to debate with you. You twist and abuse everything I say anyway. But...
On behalf of all the women (and I know it's many) you have abused in some way, I say... get some help and take an honest look at yourself...

a man who gets an email like this from his own mother should be legally required to reveal it to every woman he ever meets ever ever

Wow... great shot!
