New York hair and nail salons to shut, but booze deemed ‘essential’

jamie

It’s good to know that no matter what happens here in #Connecticut, right across the border in #NewYork they’ve got their priorities straight. Assuming they don’t close the State borders or something.

Look…we all get why we gotta stay home, but you can’t expect us to do it without all the #booze we decide we require, damn it! I mean, that’s just more than any human could be expected to endure.

It’s abundantly clear that #Coronavirus is pushing humanity right to the edge of civilized existence. We must resist at all costs, and strive to stay human during this crisis of human civilization!

Don’t Sit a Mannequin on an Airbag – The Slow Mo Guys

jamie

How’s everyone doing?
Self isolation got ya down?
Wondering what the hell we’re going to do with ourselves for the next 8 weeks…or longer? Yeah we are.
But hey…Who doesn’t love a good Slow-Mo guys video on a shivery Containment Zone afternoon?
It’s more fun than killing your neighbors for roll of toilet paper.

Remembering Ron ‘Pigpen’ McKernan With 10 Early Grateful Dead Performances [Listen]

jamie

I never got to see the Dead with Pig Pen…my first show was a few years after he was replaced, when Keith and Donna joined the Band. I didn’t really know what I was was missing until I started to collect live show recordings a few years later and was like… “What’s this?!? This doesn’t sound like the Grateful Dead!” not realizing why it sounded so different…so bluesy, so raw…why? One guy…and a whole lot of rockin’ soul.
After that, I couldn’t stop listening to Bear’s Choice. It became my favorite Dead album…for a while. I don’t think I have an actual favorite Dead album now, but at any given time there’s always one you just have to hear. Over and over. Really Loud.
Bears Choice is THE Pig Pen album in my opinion.
Whether you love the Pig…or have never heard the Grateful Dead with him on keyboard, vocals and harmonica…you gotta check out the live tracks in this link!

Trump offered to pardon Assange if he covered up Russian interference in US election, court told

jamie

Uggh. More bribery and extortion. A pardon offered in exchange for evidence that clears Russia of hacking DNC, which helped Trump win the election. And has been PROVEN by evidence gathered by Mueller.
Also, dangling a pardon in exchange for ANYTHING is not legal; a clear abuse of presidential power.

this just sucks that the GOP is so far gone as to approve of this abuse of the highest and, supposedly most honorable, office on the planet. we need a new conservative party that respects the rule of law, and we need it yesterday imo
