Just heard there were only 203 arrests at the Coachella 2026, less than the 223 arrests at Coachella 2025. Come on, people, you only needed 20 more! . . . 😜 Public intoxication, illegal drugs possession and fake I.D.'s lead the way, with one arrest for a fake disability placard.

. . .“I still do think it’s a travesty they use the New Order name when they are not New Order. They haven’t said they’re going; I have no idea, to be honest. I am gonna go, definitely. I’m looking forward to it.”

Below is a pointed quote from that article by Peter Hook:

“What they did in 2011 was, frankly, disgusting, and I can’t forgive it … so I won’t be borrowing their ball, shall we say, for any kind of game,” explains Hook, who’s “speaking with” ceremony producers about performing at the event. . . .

I got a taste of what was coming a few years ago when, after I mentioned Melissa Etheridge, some troll on X sniped that she was a "one hit wonder". 5 platinum albums, 3 top ten albums, 7 top 40 hits, and that hateful troll embraced his narrative over facts.

The Votes Are In And here’s the class:

Should have solved this in 4, but with the letters I had, I'm amazed I solved it in 5. I'm sure the Pope did better. And how did you do? Wordle #1,766 5/6

I solved this Wordle trap only because I eliminated so many possibilities. I must admit the fact that I hadn't considered the troublesome characteristic until then end brought me to the brink of another loss.
