RIP, Brian Wilson He shared beautiful gifts from a sad life and a tortured mind.*
Yes, my father used to beat the hell out of us… That is probably why I wrote those happy songs. I try to get as close to paradise as I can. I try to steer clear of heartbreaks.

*One might say the same of Sly Stone, may he also rest in peace.

Don’t feel great about this “Following a review of performances and after significant reflection, the Club can announce that Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties.” – Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) June 6, 2025
In any case, waiting around this long is a very Spursy move. (Also, adiós, Christian Romero, best player on the club [except when he goes bananas].)
UPDATE: We shall see, but I sure feel better about Thomas Frank at Spurs (and Romero, too) than I did 6 weeks ago. ⚽︎

New York Times May 30, 2025:
#1: As Elon Musk entered President Trump’s orbit, he told people he was taking so much ketamine that it was affecting his bladder. He was also taking Ecstasy and psychedelic mushrooms, and he traveled with a daily medication box of about 20 pills.
#2: Trump is now presenting Musk with a giant golden key he says he gives only to “very special people.”
#3: White House Health Report Included Fake Citations - A report on children’s health released by the Make America Healthy Again Commission referred to scientific papers that did not exist.
I’m special. Where can I get one of those keys? Maybe Buc-ees?

Not Too Much Another thing I like about Micro.blog: by following a limited number of posters, I see all new posts in pretty short order. Which means I can put away my screen and get back to non-screen living in pretty short order. (If I do want more MB, I can always tap “Discover.")
