On January 2, PhanArt returns at a New Location - Chelsea Studios NYC on 18th Street - bringing together artists, vendors & non-profits from the Phish community as well as live music & much more in store. Located 1 mile south of MSG, Chelsea Studios NYC is located 3 stops from Penn Station on the 1.

"The rich are only defeated when running for their lives." - CLR James, The Black Jacobins

It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.

Namaste

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

Just discovered @cheekface.bsky.social on Bandcamp and their new album didn't disappoint. Perfect protest music for this era. cheekface.bandcamp.com/album/podium

I want this too, but I am fearful that Elmo is going to use starlink to mess with the results before they can even get to the endless litigation cycle from mid-Nov to early-Jan.

overheard in a gift shop today where there were blatantly AI generated Halloween illustrations, an older woman went "ohh how cute!" and the teenager with her, So Done, goes "I know you have a hard time telling, but that is AI, it's ugly, and I'm sick of it" I wanted to throw that teen a parade

The first printing of ‘The Widespread Alphabet’ arrived on Thursday and they look marvelous! The book goes on sale the first week of November at etsy.com/shop/phanart and phanart.weebly.com. I am thrilled to be finally sharing this book with everyone!

GREAT resource - find your poll site AND see a sample ballot in NYC! findmypollsite.vote.nyc

Amanda and I might be the youngest people here at Los Lobos. Half full Egg (weak for a Friday) and lotta white hairs.

"can't even sell it to an Australian" is a devastating burn

Yes & one of his only live concerts preserved from the 1970s! Absolutely KILLER SHOW! FELA KUTI was like if Muhammed Ali, James Brown & Miles Davis were all in one body in Africa. Never be another like him!

Seeing 'The Wolves' tonight but it sounds way cooler as Los Lobos.

Thrilled that American High has a Netflix show "Minimum Wage" and can't wait to see these Cuse alums again!

Brutal. And well-deserved.

In celebration of National Boston Cream Day, here's Phish playing Sunshine of Your Love > More Than a Feeling > Sunshine of Your Love .. or Boston Cream!!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eFb...

If you encounter ICE, here's what every New Yorker should know.

this is fucking appalling. i already knew james dolan (who owns the knicks and madison square garden) was a douche but this is next-level. www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

The Latest Wave of Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Is Again Being Felt in Schools www.the74million.org/article/the-...

Lights are reflected off a bulletproof screen as President Trump speaks during a campaign rally in Greenville, North Carolina. More photos of the week: reut.rs/4yGkBNh 📷 Evan Vucci

AOC: "As AI begins to encroach in our society, their goal is to take your cognition away from you. AI's goal is to take your thoughts away from you, your ability to think away from you, so that you become dependent on a machine ... reading books is active resistance"

A good metaphor also for the moral bankruptcy of the techbro slogan, "move fast and break things," that was once seen, in some quarters, as innovative and cool.

Decided way too late to go as Ted Lasso for Halloween - got the visor but no jacket is getting here in time. What alternatives do I have?

In any other admin, this would probably be the most outrageous official statement ever made by a sitting FCC director: Strongly implying that the government forbids broadcast networks from reporting on the president's falling poll numbers. (Sorry to paste from twitter but that's where he posts.)

Great day at school (students had a peaceful walkout!) followed by a 2-0 boys soccer W capping a 10-1 season, my first time reaching 10 wins as a coach & after a tight game. Topped that off w/Peruvian ceviche & sushi with Amanda + Pisco sours and the best churros ever. 5 star day, would live again.

washington dc is not trump’s personal property and must be given statehood to prevent this kind of abuse in the future

Parents Group Demands School Acknowledge That They’re Angry And Not Very Smart — theonion.com/parents-grou...

“i pay tax before, but still pay tax now?” We spoke with dozens of half-literate morons about the machinations of local governance. Here’s what they’re saying.

My teenage children, who have never set foot in NYC, go around saying "Help me, Mamdani!" whenever anything goes wrong and/or they can't figure out their homework, just to give everybody a sense of the scale of this man's presence in the culture lol

@repriseband.bsky.social , reprising 12/12/97, a show I have barely listened to because the next night was my first show. Don't even know the setlist and its already a killer show - Funky Bitch -> 2001 and excellent Taste to start!

It’s taking a long time for people to wake up to the fact that these platforms are not public forums but privately owned companies with terrible agendas and total control. If you lay down with these dogs…

So how did the on sale go for everyone today? ::ducks::

2 days working at a pharmacy packing up orders. Was not for me.

Hell yeah Brewers! The Bratwurst Riviera is gonna be electric this next week!
