just stop.... nobody cares.

Joe has a lot more songs than I realized when I did that a few years ago. Like an idiot I didn't even know of the James Gang. I knew the songs obviously. I got to see the Eagles in 2017 and while the show was heavily choreographed and exactly what you would expect and probably the same precise show they play every single night, seeing Joe play Hotel California even without Felder, was great. I got free tickets so that helped. No way I would pay Don Henley prices to see the band as they are today... no shot at Vince Gill either. I like him.

Because of some friends I have I think I have a good window when I eavesdrop on this Facebook posts. This guys is done with Trump. All in on Ron. But so many people are already calling Desantis deep state. These are people who believe in 2000 mules. They really exist. it’s not a stretch that without trump in the picture are we in some kind of 2012 model?

Jesus this conversation is boring

I saw her on some clip with 3 others doing a "prayer circle" about the "stolen election"

Man.... people are impatient. Signing players is not just a matter of throwing money at them. You can't put a gun to their head. You need to offer a reason for another team to give you good players. Rebuilding isn't just a matter of going to the store and trading 3 players worth 2 points for 1 player worth 8. You don't go into a general store with a wish list and the guy comes back with your items.

What's good for the D's with 51 as opposed to 50, is now I think they have a real majority on committees. Under 50/50 it was even. They can counter program whatever lunacy McCarthy has going on in the lower chamber.

Because somehow it’s accepted that “city folk” aren’t real Americans.

He only did if because Kardashian brought her boobs into the oval office and sat on his lap and probably nuzzled him into it.

Was it really a joke? It seemed believable to me. Ben got in some heat during the season when he made a “get off your knees” joke to a reporter that he had to walk back as just busting balls between friends.

My twitter folks seem to think it’s going to be pretty close and not a blowout. Relatively speaking I guess considering it’s a runoff which is a result of a close election so a term like blowout needs context.

I'm 'guessing that's taken from the maccabes building on the WSU campus. that's Woodward and Warren. They didn't have drones then 🙂

She mouthed off when Porcello won the Cy Young over him in '16 then had to backtrack that she was just joking.

So next year the Phillies can under achieve and DD can get fired and leave the team with a bunch of large contracts they aren't happy with?

I did the same thing a few years ago. laughingly bad. Like a parody. And it was so familiar even though I hadn’t listened since the first few months it came out. CD was cool though.

It’s fake.

But the clips and sources I have seen were of people saying that at that time. i was born in ‘73 so I have no input. I once saw an anecdote that when people say “I like all music except country” there is a hidden bias against “rednecks”. When people say “I like all music except rap” there is a hidden bias against “black culture” if not blacks themselves. I wonder if the “I hate disco “ started that way. Sure many if not most were referring to Disco Duck type things. But like many things once it goes mainstream then it does suck, like many genres.

39 year old free agent gets $18 million raise.

Porcello just retired I think

Christ.... yeah that's why he opted out.

It's low risk for guys like Cruz to do what he did. It's a dynamic where your rights as a worker are important up until the point you can crash the economy. There's a reason certain industries have those kinds of rules, like the flight controllers. Not saying their demands were at all unreasonable.

When the Wings won in 1997 there was a big fuss about the 42 year wait..... that's not long for the Tigers unfortunately.

Here's an article that goes into more detail. https://signorile.substack.com/p/the-disco-sucks-movement-and-the To say "none of this" is a stretch as obviously at the time that was the feeling. It's not rewriting history. From a rolling stone piece in 1979 From the article above. I mean... why not just let people enjoy what they enjoy? The critique I see here is a musical one which is fine to have if it's not your cup of tea but it's not hurting anybody if an ostracized community finds comfort and pleasure from "house" music that may not live up to your standards of what music should be. this sounds to me like people in the 90's complaining that Rap and Hip Hop was not real music. That sentiment was very real and it isn't until the last 10-15 years that suddenly everybody seems to have been a fan when I can tell you as a young adult at the time they certainly were not. We'd never have nevisioned Ice T doing reverse mortage commercials or Snoop Dogg doing stuff with martha stewart. People wanted them in jail.

I learned from a recent Bee Gees documentary about the evolution of Disco and it's prominence in the gay community very early on. Then the Bee Gees made Saturday Night Fever and suddenly everybody decided to make disco and that's what ruined it. It had it's niche market and was fine but then it was over saturated. There was also some definite anti gay sentiment behind the drive against it. Not saying that's what people today are doing but within the times of the 70's that was a force.
