OK Linda, keyboard solo, go!



I think even I could learn to do that.

And Paul looks so dang proud.
Improvise and then I'll be impressed. Right, anybody here could.
Ngl, I couldn't do it. I can't read music and I can't play an instrument.
You don't have to. You can't sing that part back? It's pretty simple. You could memorize the notes on a piano in less than an hour.

She definitely looked like she was putting her all into it. She was playing the synth line and all the chords on the electric piano below the synth and singing a little. I didn’t know she was on the recording. I assumed they had studio musicians play on the recording and she played live. I don’t know how much a virtuoso she is. She played all the parts in tune and on time. She’s definitely a step up from Yoko.

This is of no surprise at all. Digital banning of books, digital book burning, censorship.

Ah, as a parent, you see it too. I think Jill saw it too, which is why she turned away and dropped her head.

I didn't "see it" as a parent. I looked at the clip, and since you posted it, I tried to assume what is the worst thing a person could be saying about Biden in this clip or what's the way to make this clip an attack on Biden. It took me a minute to figure out that that's what you were getting at. I don't actually think he pooped his pants. I think you're seeing what you want to see because you don't like him.

Weird, I thought America was overrun with crime and murder since Biden took office?

Here is the explanation of those "statistics".
The Media Say Crime Is Going Down. Don’t Believe It
The decline in reported crimes is a function of less reporting, not less crime.
By John R. Lott Jr.
April 24, 2024 2:50 pm ET
https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-media- ... t-e5b07784
Americans think crime is on the rise, but the media keep telling them they’re wrong. A Gallup survey last year found that 92% of Republicans and 58% of Democrats thought crime was increasing. A February Rasmussen Reports survey found that 61% of likely voters say violent crime in the U.S. is getting worse, while only 13% think it’s getting better. Journalists purport to refute this by citing official crime statistics showing a downward trend.

Americans aren’t mistaken. News reports fail to take into account that many victims aren’t reporting crimes to the police, especially since the pandemic.

Suuuuuure. There's tons of horrible crime but people just don't bother to say anything about it. Is the crime in the room with you right now?

Hilarious. These are the facts but they're not really because they're not being reported correctly. So easy to say. That's the whole Trump platform. Just say things enough times until people believe them. Like about election integrity. It doesn't matter what's real anymore.

Of course not. It’s paywalled. You have no right to dispute conservatives if you don’t pay them.

Toxic culture is the norm at the FDIC, outside review cites 500 employee complaints
MAY 7, 20247:16 PM ET
Scott Horsley
https://www.npr.org/2024/05/07/12497152 ... harassment
An outside review of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation found a toxic workplace where hundreds of employees complained of sexual harassment, discrimination and other misconduct which went largely ignored by the agency's management.

The investigation was commissioned after a scathing report last fall in the Wall Street Journal, which documented strip club visits, lewd messages, heavy drinking and bullying at the government agency, which is responsible for safeguarding Americans' bank deposits.

And you put that in this thread because you think it reflects on Biden? There is nothing in that article that suggests it’s a new problem that only began in the last three years. The only bad actor identified in the article has been there for twenty.
