  • Album ≠ album. There are certainly ones worthy of listening to them as a whole. But there are plenty of albums that are just utter garbage too. The war on the single by record companies in the 90s produced a number of albums that were at best a couple of okay singles plus 8-10 pure fillers. Name another Chumbawamba song, you can’t without googling.

    In a way we are reverting back to the 1950s where the single reigned supreme and albums were an afterthought. Now the single song does better than an album again. Some musicians release every streamlined Spotify curated 2 minute song as a “single.” Since most of it is done digitally only why not?

    Dogma is useless.





  • 47, like his erstwhile buddy Epstein, deals in favor/counterfavor. The sheiks who paid for the jet scratched his back in exchange for a US favor, possibly pushing the repeat Nobel peace laureate runner up into war on Iran. And if he and his own can get rich in the process, no, wait, that’s plan A. All the rest is just theater and headline generation. I suspect the ballroom is just helping direct tax funds into construction companies that are owned by his former fixer’s neighbor’s third cousin’s dog’s groomer’s husband. The NYT will enlighten us in time.

    I think the US military will be able to inspect the plane and discover any hidden bugs. You don’t really need to track the plane; it’ll be on the news. As for the White House, even if a republican wins the next election, I’d fire the entire staff and send the military counterintelligence outfit through there with a fine toothed comb. A Democrat incumbent will probably sleep somewhere else for a while, pointing to “necessary” renovation work. I don’t think that that would be paranoid.
