It's Halloween! So Mike, Rich, and @libbycudmore.bsky.social thought the time was right to sink our podcasting teeth into Siouxsie and the Banshees’ post-punk opus Juju, an album so seasonally appropriate there’s even a song called “Halloween” on it. #MusicSky

Some of you have forgotten how to shake your little tush on the catwalk and it shows

"No matter who wins in November, what happens next will depend on who keeps showing up. Learn from Minnesota organizers: Don't just vote, find your people and join an organization that will still be building people power after the election." Something to amplify, on 11/4 or any day of the year:

Anti-trans Democrats are spreading poison when we can least afford it, during elections in this ongoing fascist takeover. As a strategy, it’s a recipe for failure. As a moral stand, it’s reprehensible. PS I’m the father of young trans woman and I’ll never forgive anyone who makes her life harder.

"You know, the first question -- that's a great stew, what's in it? It has chicken, green peppers, corn, chile...By the time you get to the onions, a lot of people are left out on the road..."

CONGRATS, @nkolakowski.bsky.social!!

If RP1 is "beyond criticism" then why is @372pages.bsky.social review of so damn good?

"Suddenly I was 15 and standing in front of the glass doors that separated me from my high school's parking lot. Every minute the emptiness got darker was another minute my dad didn't show up." sugar-pig.blogspot.com/2026/10/dark...

I unironically love "Are You Happy in Your Work" and would buy the I ACCUSE MY PARENTS soundtrack on vinyl TODAY.
