Enjoyed this article about the growing number of men adopting cats, bucking gender stereotypes. Apparently Mamdani is allergic to cats, but has been getting allergy shots because his wife wants to adopt one. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/20/s...

“Stop Making Sense” turns 42 today. Of his performance, David Byrne said: “You see this person in the beginning [of the film] who's kind of angsty, stumbling around .. And then, by the end, he's surrendered to the music and is fairly joyful .. He’s found a kind of community." 🙏🏼 “Slippery People”

Top of the charts today in 1969: “Honky Tonk Women” — the western riff that Jagger and Richards wrote while on vacation at a Brazilian ranch, watching the cowboys work. It can be “a bastard to play,” Richards once said. But “when it's right, it's really right.”

Snagged this from FB. This may make some people uncomfortable but I think it highlights just how far we've come from what's natural, from our relationship to the Earth that sustains us and our beautiful relatives we share it with.

"I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing." ~ Agatha Christie Summer (1911) 🎨 Nikolay Bogdanov-Belsky

The Stones release “Honky Tonk Women” 57 years ago today — a country/western vibe inspired by the cowboys who worked at the Brazilian ranch where Jagger and Richards were vacationing. Richards said it was “one of those tracks that you knew was a #1 before you’d finished the mother—er.” 🔥

Top of the charts today in 1980: “Coming Up”, in which McCartney played every instrument — even in the video. “.. Apparently, [it] was the one song that got John [Lennon] recording again,” he said. “I think John just thought, ‘Uh oh, I had better get working, too.’ I thought that was a nice story.”

Remembering Brian Wilson on his birthday 💙🏄‍♂️🎹 In 2006, Carole King was invited by legendary songwriter / producer Brian Wilson to his recording studio. One of the songs they recorded that day is “I’m Into Something Good,” the Goffin/King song originally made famous in 1965 by Herman’s Hermits.
