Saturday Mar 08, 2025
Saturday Mar 08, 2025
Another fab remix from Chet Gardiner, of a song that's at least as relevant as it was a few days ago, when I wrote it, after that meeting in the Oval Office.

New song: "Toddlers-in-Chief"

I'm constantly unable to decide whether they're brilliantly theatrical, Machiavellian coup-plotters or just bumbling billionaires whose emotional development stalled out a long time ago.

Thursday Feb 27, 2025
I don't know what came over me, but this time when I got the summons for jury duty, I didn't make up a reason why I couldn't do it. Next time I get such a summons, I'll make sure I'm out of town, or have a sick child to care for.

"It's A Coup" REMIX
Sunday Feb 23, 2025
Sunday Feb 23, 2025
OK, now they're firing all the military lawyers who are supposed to be responsible for determining whether a command is legal or not. Folks, this is definitely a coup, in case there was any question. This is not a corruption cleanup operation, it is a dictatorship installation operation. Here's Chet Gardiner's hopping remix of the song I wrote about it earlier this month.

To the list of allegedly democratic, free countries where the police arrest journalists for writing in opposition to Israeli fascism, we may now add Canada.

Thursday Feb 20, 2025
Thursday Feb 20, 2025
A really lively remix of this song I wrote earlier this month (that Elon Musk earned every penny of), with an especially counterpunctual bass line, from Chet Gardiner's studio in Hawai'i.
