Welcome to the soundtrack for the end of America! New music this week from The Amazons, Envy of None, OK Go, Elephant Stone, Baby Said, Yola, The Sherlocks, Ex-Void, Franciscan Monks of Acies Mundi, I'm With Her and much more. Enjoy!
We are the resistance now. I live in California, so for me it's pretty easy. I will provide you new music from unconventional sources (and a few conventional ones as well) so that you can see that the world keeps moving while America loses its fucking mind.
Never play poker or chess with Joe Biden. In the last few hours of his Presidency he gave Pre-emptive Pardons to everyone involved in the J6 committee. Members of congress, people who testified - just about everyone involved. And while the predictable sources all screamed to the rafters he then quietly commuted the sentence of Leonard Peltier. Did you have that on your Bingo card? I didn't.
I didn't watch the inauguration of the new/old guy, but I see from many sources that the richest man in the world gave a Nazi salute (I've seen the video - it's a fucking Nazi salute - PERIOD) and that one of the other richest men in the world (the one with the frizzy fright wig masquarading as normal hair and might be a T-400 upgrade) looked at him with absolute loathing. Oh, and the new/old guy didn't place his hand on the bible held by his wife when he took the oath. Possibly out of fear of getting his hand scorched, by either that bible or his wife's touch. I mean, he did fuck a sex worker while she was recovering from giving birth to his youngest child.
Meanwhile, My newest Senator looked the next attorney general in the face and called her a liar. TikTok vanished and then reappeared (so I'm told - I'm not on TikTok) and gave all the credit to the new/old guy - who did nothing. It was a publicity stunt and anyone who tells you otherwise is a fucking liar.
Well, this is where we are. For the first time ever, we have a President who isn't President for all of us, but only for the richest of those who has kissed his ass. Even last time around he gave some lip service to trying, although he failed.
Oh, and apparently he declared himself to be the President of Peace, and he'll invade Panama just to prove it. He also had General Mark Milley's portrait taken down at the Pentagon. It was unveiled only 10 days ago. What a petty piece of shit.
This this is all happening on the day the country celebrates one of the greatest muckrakers in our country's history is just appalling. All because some of you didn't want a woman playing in the sandbox.
Fuck Unity. Starting today, I am part of the Motherfucking Rebellion.
I will have a present for my friends to help you not be constantly angry for the next 4 years, and I'll hand that out in March. Being angry all the time is tiresome - this is something I know too damned well - but if you follow me at counter.social (I am @animeraider) you can see my pinned post and get it for free now. I am not on Xitter, not public on Fakebooks, not on Instagram, and not terribly active on Bluesky. I do have a tumblr account (same handle) but that's not terribly interactive.
Hang on my friends. Turbulence is here. I'll be back tomorrow.
This week's 10 at 10 will air Thursday at 10pm PST with repeats on Sunday at 10am and 10pm at the radio station. Every song on the playlist above will be played in a continuous loop on Wednessday.
And because I love you and to give credit to Biden's last chess move, have some Toad the Wet Sprocket:
