Days before the walkout, the LCBO announced that stores would be closed for 14 days, and on its website suggested alternatives for buying alcohol in the meantime. It's almost as if the province were trying to train people to buy their alcohol elsewhere....

I wrote about one of my all-time favourite albums for Tidal. If you don't know Escalator Over the Hill, you really ought to give it a listen.

Personally, I take art criticism from Canada's conservative pundits about as seriously as I take their political prescriptions. Which is to say, not at all.

Learning that there's a new U2 album about to be released leaves me with the same feeling I get when I see the obituary of someone I'd assumed was already long dead.

Does anyone remember back in 1981, when striking US Air Traffic Controllers defied a back-to-work order, and Ronald Reagan fired them all?
I bet Doug Ford does.

"Ford’s election ushered in an era of penny-pinching cheapskatery at city hall where the cost of things is seen as an outrage and their value is barely seen at all — 12 years and counting of austerity as the primary objective in a city of abundance."

Yes, things suck these days. Try to be understanding, so they suck less. You'd be surprised what a difference that makes.

A long but really insightful thread.
War of memes: why Z-war won't end with peace
Some Western analysts unfamiliar with Eastern European cultural context perceive Z-war as an accident. They presume that Russian invasion results from some sort of "misunderstanding" or mistake which can be resolved via negotiations🧵
There's nothing like "Shuffle" play to remind a person how much actual crap they have in their music library.

Recently heard The Complete Aretha Franklin & King Curtis Live at Fillmore West, and was surprised at the second guitar in the 3rd night's "Them Changes." Enters at 2:20 during the organ solo, and is centre mix, with Cornell Dupree on the left. Anybody know who's playing there?
