Rich in Bristol:

We've been clearing out my grandmother's house following her death. I found an original vinyl copy of Funkadelic's One Nation Under A Groove. For a moment, I thought it was my grandmother's, who never really listened to music outside orchestras at Christmas. Then I remembered that it belonged to my auntie, who had abandoned it decades ago. Still, she doesn't want it anymore, so what a score!

I adored my nan. You're right that it's both been really hard and really nice to go through her old things. Really comforting the little trinkets that bring her back. And then finding that Funkadelic record - I was so confused for a moment that I simply had to laugh. Felt good. And now I have a very nice record on my turntable.

A year before that, in '73, some high school friends and I went into NYC. Bowie was playing at Radio City that night. We were thinking of going, but not all of us had the $4 to get in. Looking back, I missed out on the Ziggy Stardust tour because of a coupla $.

Also: Saw something on social media about 4 years ago. Loosely paraphrased...Voting is not like marriage, where you search for the perfect partner. It's like taking the bus. There might not be a bus that gets you EXACTLY where you want to go. But you don't stay home and pout because of that. You figure out which bus gets you closest, then YOU GET ON THE DAMN BUS and figure out how you're going to get to your destination from there.

As a nonprofit professional it's exhausting to see so many being quiet because they are unaware that there *are* ways they're legally allowed to talk politics. What you are doing as an org with such reach is something beautiful.

As a 501(c)3 there's restrictions on how much they can say and why. They're in the limit, walking the line in a beautiful way (you can't endorse candidates unless their political issues specifically impact your mission, and I agree with WFMU the issues are so dire they absolutely impact the mission bc they impact all listeners). My point is a lot of 501(c)3s mistakenly think they can't at all, and orgs like WFMU are proving otherwise and should be seen as best practice for that.

My free time internet use mainly consists of WFMU and looking at records. I don't look at videos, stream movies, listen to podcasts, not social media etc.

"Red means run" to me is that the second anything on the internet looks sketchy, I'm out of there in a hurry. Then with "numbers add up to nuthin" is most of internet displayed news, social media, memes, etc doesn't add up to me. It makes no friggin sense.

A million bands have covered this. I mean, serious types of bands. The way I see it is that it's mostly just a really good imitation of rock music. Then again, maybe that's all rock music is??

I can't address the second part of your comment, but it's not universally true in the U.S. that convicted felons can never vote again. It depends on the state. Some states allow felons to vote once they're out of prison. Others ban felons from voting for life unless the state restores their civil rights through a cumbersome bureaucratic process (this is often the former slave states that coincidentally have managed to disenfranchise significant percentages of their African American populations this way).

Trump WOULD have been ineligible to run had the Senate convicted him at his second impeachment trial after the Jan. 6 insurrection attempt. But not enough Republicans voted to convict.
