@BlatzBeerLover One of his best songs. What I use as exhibit #1 when some douchecanoe says ‘Sturgill sucks since he got political’ or he’s doing it because it is convenient. He did this FIVE years or more before he called out Trump busking at the CMAs in’17.

I don’t get butthurt about reviews. Just an opinion and mine about this record will probably change over time. But RS loses credibility when they can’t even spell Sturgill’s name correct in the title and don’t bother to correct it…a shell of what this pub used to be.

The Rolling Stone Review — Strugill Simpson's 'Mutiny After Midnight'

"The second album under his alter ego, Johnny Blue Skies, finds Simpson howling about sex in glorious detail" 🪩

@bradluttrell “Two is enough, but three’s a whole lot of fun. Four’s a fucking party when everybody comes” is quite the line from Everyone is Welcome

Initial feel is that Sound & Fury had a child w Passage du Desir.

@BillyLynch44 @Jaypotta Internet tea leaves from months ago have warned me of 3/27

@NoisyPod I knew we were going to win when they brought your boy, Curtis Jones, on right after the Bernardo score. Thought about what you said about him on the pod a few weeks ago. Absolutely inconsequential…

I have voted Bush, Bush, Dole, Bush, Bush, McCain, Romney, Bernie, Biden (begrudgingly), Harris. This Marine veteran identifies as ‘center-right’. Every word in here rings authentic to me. This was written days before we executed an ICU nurse who worked at the VA caring for vets

I need to say something that's been bothering me for a while, and I'm saying it as a Marine Corps veteran who leans center-right.
This isn't partisan. This is observation.
We've slow-faded into accepting militarized police as normal, and nobody seems to notice or care.
Even as a USMC pilot, I went through six months of infantry training as an officer before flight school. I've worn the gear. The helmet, the tactical vest, the whole kit. And I can tell you from experience, it changes you.
There's a psychological shift that happens when you strap that stuff on. You feel different. You carry yourself different. You start seeing the environment differently. In the Marine Corps, that shift was appropriate because it's a combat culture and organization.
But these are American streets. American citizens. And we've got law enforcement dressed like they're kicking down doors in Fallujah to serve warrants in suburbia.
What happend to high standards and real policing tactics? Think Adam-12...Officers Reed and Malloy. Crisp uniforms. A revolver. A baton. High standards and professionalism. They looked like public servants because they were public servants. They de-escalated. They talked to people. They were part of the community.
Now? Tactical gear, beards, ball caps, Oakley sunglasses, sleeve tattoos, and a tactical kit that would make special operators jealous. And we've turned it into a fetish. We celebrate it. We assume that because someone looks hard, they must be a professional.
They're not.
I loved the Marine Corps. But I'll be honest, I was also blinded by it for a while. Mission first. Unit over everything. And that mentality made sense in that context.
But law enforcement doesn't get that critical examination. "Back the Blue" has become a shield against accountability. A blanket assumption that a badge plus gun equals hero. That tactical gear equals competence.
It doesn't.
Most people who join law enforcement aren't special operators. They're average people who desperately want to belong to something bigger than themselves. I understand that impulse deeply, it's why I joined the Marines. But wanting to belong doesn't make you qualified. Looking the part doesn't mean you can perform under pressure. And wrapping yourself in warrior aesthetics doesn't make you a warrior.
Old school law enforcement represented something. Standards. Bearing. Discipline. Professionalism that was demonstrated, not costumed. A revolver and a baton meant you had to rely on your training, your words, your judgment, not overwhelming firepower.
What I see now in law enforcement is the costume without the culture. The gear without the training. The authority without the accountability.
Are there good people in law enforcement? Of course. I know some personally. But this reflexive "law enforcement can do no wrong" mentality is lazy, dangerous, and intellectually dishonest.
A woman is dead. And before we sort ourselves into teams and start assigning blame, maybe we should ask harder questions:
Why do we accept a militarized police force as normal?
Why do we assume tactical gear equals tactical competence?
Why have we let "Back the Blue" become a substitute for actual standards?
I wore the uniform. I went through the training. I know what that gear does to your head.
It shouldn't be normalized on American streets against American citizens.
And we shouldn't pretend everyone wearing it is qualified to carry it. The fact that he called her a “fucking bitch” after he shot her three times should be a huge red flag for all of us.

@jagoffbrewer Changed it on PC, made the timeline more bearable.

The continued militarization of police is terrible for all Americans
