This is an amazing story and well worth a read… the legacy of war as it splinters down the generations.

So sad to hear of Angelo Bruschini’s death. Loved his guitar playing and leading the guitar wing of the Blue Aeroplanes’ Swagger era he defined their sound. Massive Attack’s Mezzanine too. He leaves so much great stuff behind but what a loss.

As part of the recruitment of new fake Americans, Prigozhin's state-funded Troll Farm asks job applicants to write an essay describing their would-be-American life. I have to share this gem with you.

A mature saguaro takes 125 years to grow. They keep going down around Phoenix thanks to the delay of the monsoon (getting some today finally) and cumulative heat without recovery! Through today 4th longest stretch without measurable rain (138 days). Photo: @AmberSullins

wes anderson does retrofuturistic americana with a CVS receipt of a cast, inject it into my veins
The poster for Wes Anderson’s 2023 film ‘Asteroid City’, depicting a painterly desert landscape with cliffs and canyons spanning to a blue-sky horizon, struck through by a dusty cacti-pocked road. In the foreground, there’s a billboard featuring an image of an asteroid crater, above which is written: ‘an American Empirical Picture by Wes Anderson: Asteroid City’. The cast of the movie is listed in the top-right corner of the poster, as follows: Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Adrien Brody, Liev Schreiber, Hope Davis, Stephen Park, Rupert Friend, Maya Hawke, Steve Carell, Matt Dillon, Hong Chau, Willem Dafoe, Margot Robbie, Tony Revolori, Jake Ryan, and Jeff Goldblum.

If you listened to Republicans this morning, you'd think they slept through the Trump years. Secretary Blinken was before @HouseForeign today. I took the chance to correct the record. Turns out the Trump Administration left quite a mess for him to clean up. Take a look ⬇️

This is an absolutely great read. And I speak as a connoisseur of rock memoirs. Doesn’t matter if you did or didn’t know Strangelove - the blistering honesty of @Patrick_Duff ‘s storytelling is captivating. For anyone who has struggled it’s a joyous ride too.
