@npub19mj…ugjc If Elon stopped mocking humanities graduates long enough to study some art history, he might be familiar with Eugène Delacroix's depiction of one particular Doge...Marino Faliero, executed for #treason in 1355. Apparently, Venetians believed that no one was above the law. #USpol

@npub1r7v…qwpu Keith was the greatest. I liked the Sex Pistols…but I LOVED Public Image Ltd. And Keith was a big part of the reason I did.

@npub1v2s…mqq5 I remember when the Republicans were the anti-Communist party. Now, they're shameless Russian assets and I sound like Barry Goldwater. #uspoli

@npub15zu…s7lx Conservatives have one and only one motive for seeking public office…to enrich themselves personally at public expense. They have no concept of public service, honour, or the greater good. They are, by definition, sociopaths. #ukpoli #uspoli #cdnpoli #onpoli

@npub1r7v…qwpu The album cover is an altered image of the poster from the 1968 Emile de Antonio documentary “In the Year of the Pig”, which explores the origins of the Vietnam War. It is by far the best film I have ever seen on the subject.

@npub1jvc…pedh @npub14ka…um78 Corruption is what EVERY Conservative government is about. Self-enrichment is the sole motivation for Conservatives seeking public office. #abpoli #cdnpoli #onpoli

@npub15zu…s7lx Any time a right-winger accuses someone on the political left of an impropriety (or outright crime), there’s a 100% certainty they’re doing that exact thing themselves. It’s as good as a signed confession. #uspoli #cdnpoli #plagiarism #hypocrisy

@npub1r7v…qwpu And the world became completely unmoored after his death. I blame everything bad that happened since that time (Bowie’s death, Prince’s death, Trump, COVID, Putin, me moving to another Big 4 management consultancy) on the cultural void left by Lemmy.

@npub1r7v…qwpu Handsome Dick looks to be in top form here (as does Stiv). Alas, I was too young to witness this iconic moment.

@npub1r7v…qwpu It's been 21 years and I still have a hard time believing he's gone.

@npub13z6…p8ce @npub14ka…um78 While I didn’t like Erin O’Toole much, he was an honourable man. There is no honour or decency in Poilievre whatsoever…only a single-minded Nietzschean will to power. A truly loathsome excuse for a human being. #cdnpoli

@npub1r7v…qwpu The most photogenic member of The Clash by far. There is no such thing as a bad photo of Paul Simonon.

@npub1r7v…qwpu I remember reading about JD Daugherty’s “audition”, if indeed it could be called that…Patti and Lenny gave him a list of books he needed to read before they would even consider him. It sounded more like an academic tenure review than an audition.

@npub1r7v…qwpu Back on the day, I had such a crush on Penelope Houston. She was my dream woman…

@npub1sac…apc0 It was his brother Rob (the alleged mayor of Toronto) smoking crack. Doug, like all successful drug dealers, likely doesn't touch the stuff himself.

@npub1sac…apc0 @npub1r7v…qwpu It’s generally believed that he committed suicide through an intentional overdose, but of course we’ll never really know for sure.

@npub1r7v…qwpu An interesting (at least to me) postscript…DOA frontman Joe Keithley (aka Joey Shithead) is now a respected city councillor in Burnaby, BC. He was first elected in 2018, and re-elected in late 2022.

@npub1r7v…qwpu What a band…the world will never see their like again. Billy Zoom cranking out thunderous guitar with that ever-present beatific smile plastered on his face. The aptly named Don Bonebrake hammering at his drum kit in a spectacularly bone-breaking display. And, front & centre, the melodic emotional train wreck that was John & Exene.

@npub1r7v…qwpu “Teenage Kicks” was legendary BBC DJ John Peel’s favourite song, played at his funeral.

@npub1r7v…qwpu As with Exene Cervenka and Lydia Lunch, for many years I was convinced that Joan and Gaye were in fact the same person.
