That other social media platform is a toxic waste of disinformation. I’m here for my mental health.

Phew! For a minute there, I lost myself… #BlueSkyDown

1909 Baker Electric

I swear I thought Woody Harrelson was conservative. 🤷‍♂️

A Pittsburgh legend. We’ll miss you Donnie Iris.

Kacey Musgraves is the best thing going in (country) pop music right now. ♥️

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Access to music. I have hundreds of stations in my car and a world of undiscovered rock, jazz, country, bluegrass and more in my pocket.

There are still people who claim to have never heard Ella Langley’s #1 hit song “Choosin’ Texas” (gift article)

Headline: “Three senior citizens die after sailboat capsizes in gusty winds” #sailing

the second el-sayed chose to treat tommy as an equal and not a nuisance, tommy was cooked

I know what Meta is doing is corrupt, and they should be called out for it. But what are you all still doing on their platforms?

End-of-the-season sailing on our Catalina 22, Lake Arthur, Moraine State Park, Pa.

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

In honor of Katie Zacharia's short White House tenure, I once worked only one shift as a dishwasher at Captain Bob’s restaurant in Ocean City, Md., in the summer of 1987. Worst job ever…

If Kacey Musgraves didn’t have enormous talent, she could run the social media accounts for Wendy’s.

Hot take, but Boston is one of my least favorite things on today’s countdown. #AT40

I had a vague sense that there was something inappropriate about this Nick Gilder song in 1978. #AT40

I remember loving “An Everlasting Love,” and now I don’t think I’ve thought about the song since 1978. #AT40

It’s warm enough in Pittsburgh for me to lower the car windows, blare Gerry Rafferty, and pretend I’m in Indian Summer 1878. Bliss. #AT40

Ah… the talk-box guitar was everywhere in the 1970s. Even in Foxy’s “Get Off.” #AT40

“She’s always a woman” hits different in 2026. (Sorry… that joke came from 1978.) 😆 #AT40

Josie is “the pride of the neighborhood.” 🤔 Steely Dan #AT40

I’m on maybe my 10th listen to Billy Strings’ album “So Much for Goodbyes,” released Aug. 28. This is a slow burn that’s incredible from start to finish. Thank God for Billy Strings.

Go Canada!

BREAKING: Today, I'm introducing a bill to BAN corporate takeovers of your doctor's office. Doctors should be able to care for their patients without greedy private equity investors getting in the way. Let's get this done.

I don’t listen to Ed Sheeran or Macklemore. But I so wish they had planned a Pittsburgh stop on this tour so that the Rooney family could tell Robert Kraft to shove his boycott up his ass.

Kacey Musgraves in Pittsburgh last night. It was a fun show!

The capital of Nepal is Kathmandu. I really, really don’t think Bob Seger is going there now.

Yayoi Kusama, a Japanese pop artist known for polka dot-covered work and “infiniti rooms,” has passed away at 97. Here’s an image from a permanent installation at Pittsburgh’s Mattress Factory. You can immerse yourself in this one.

I already knew Dolly Parton was cool. But I just didn’t know *how* cool! I loved this from Eminem.

Some sounds you'll recognize if you were alive in the 1980s. All of the sounds are created by interacting with these then-everyday objects. [📹 rerunthe80s] Original post

We still have two more weekends BEFORE Labor Day Weekend, and then two more weeks of summer after that. Sooooo…

Another great free show at Hartwood Acres near Pittsburgh tonight. The Wood Brothers with a zen message for a Sunday night: “The trick is not to give a damn.”

Gift article from NYT.

Great show by Arrested Development tonight at Pittsburgh’s Hartwood Acres.

I know this is sacrilege to Simon & Garfunkel fans. But I just discovered Willie Nelson’s cover of “Bridge Over Troubled Water” (1982), and it’s like hearing the song for the first time.

Ah, the smirk, the fisticuffs, the brown Trans-Am. #AT40

“Seventeen” is the kind of song I only *really* hear for the first time here. When I was 9, I could not have related to how sad this is… #AT40 😕

Thanks to Canadian wildfires, Pittsburgh looks like the “smokey city” or “hell with the lid off” once again. But no steel mills this time. (Photo credit: WTAE-TV)

It is a #DataCenter

A Pittsburgh fireworks display is tough to beat. 🇺🇸

Relaxing on the shore taking in the view after a day of sailing. What a perfect day just north of Pittsburgh.

John Stewart *and* Stevie Nicks turning music into gold. #AT40

Peter Frampton: “Foreign Act.” #AT40

Oh, man. I LOVE Poco! I’m so glad they got a couple of hits to pay the bills. “Heart of the Night” is guitarist Paul Cotton’s. #AT40
