In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, and invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me there’s something stronger, something better, Pushing right back. ~ Albert Camus. ☀️
This is Glen. This is who he was. He didn’t need the crowds. He just needed the music. He plays with the same passion for these three people as he does for thousands of people.
Happy 68th birthday to the legendary Kate Bush. One of the most original artists with such a distinctive influential sound; a true pioneer who paved the way for countless women in music to be weird, fiercely creative, and have full artistic control. She's one of my heroes. 💜
RIP Sam Neill (1947-2026)
Sam Neill on why "The Piano" (1993) is an important movie in Cinema history:
"I don’t think I can overestimate how important 'The Piano' (1993) is for me in hindsight. It sits on my funny old CV like a medal on my chest. It wasn’t my film. It was Jane Campion's. I wasn’t the star of the film. That was Holly Hunter. But there is honour to be found in the second fiddle. Or fourth. No one notices you much, you don’t get nominated for things. But you served. I was there in an important feminist film. I was there on the front line in an important New Zealand film. Neither of these labels does the film justice. It’s a work of art. And look, that tiny little figure in the fabric— see down there on the right—that’s me. It’s a film that will always have a place in cinema history. And I served in it."
("Did I Ever Tell You This: A Memoir", Sam Neill, 2023)
I wanna thank all the people who voted for us it’s a real honour ever since I was a little kid and singing in the shower I’d dream about 1 day being in the RnR hall of fame it’s true what they say anything is possible if you have a dream LG x
Bruce Springsteen is currently playing to a #NoKings crowd of over 200,000 people in Saint Paul Minnesota right now!
Trump is using government to hurt people who disagree. That is what kings do to scare others. We will not be scared. We will not be silent.
Dash Crofts, the last member of the 70's rock duo, Seals & Crofts, has died at 87. Crofts was best known for hits like "Summer Breeze" and "Diamond Girls." @DavidMuir remembers his legacy. https://t.co/6tOrGXOfeX
This needs more coverage. Flavor Flav is the first official sponsor & hype man for the USA bobsled & skeleton team, he did the same thing w/ the USA women’s water polo team. (The athletes do not get paid by Team USA to compete). He’s truly a champion for women in sports.
Many of y’all asked how you can support and donate to our female athletes and the celebrations,,, so I created a Go Fund Me. I’m hopeful this can have an impact beyond the weekend and help those that represent the best of the US

Born #OnThisDay 250 years ago, Jane Austen’s words still meet us where we are: clear-eyed, courageous, and deeply human.
Her stories remind us that agency, integrity, and self-knowledge are not modern ideas, but enduring ones.
Happy 250th birthday, #JaneAusten!
