The cover of "Abandonware" is a textural photo taken by @brianlibby during the sessions for the record. It's a cymbal with a tambourine.
We love Brian profoundly.

The fact that no one appears to be contesting the results of abortion rights going 5-0 in ballot measures seems to give up the game for Republicans crying fraud. If those results are valid, why wouldn't the others be? xitter.gq/natalie_allison/status…
Lindsey Graham suggested on NRSC call yesterday that fraud in NV would be the only way GOP loses.
“There is no mathematical way Laxalt loses,” Graham said. “If he does, then it’s a lie.” politico.com/news/2022/11/11…

Not a single person in this story provided their name. None describes a specific encounter or basis for feeling this way. "'I'm sure a lot of people don't feel safe,' said Jon, who was visiting from Seattle." (Jon says he feels fine, personally.) foxnews.com/us/portlanders-t…

A fascinating look at what the future holds for the Keller Auditorium, by @brianlibby. In the long run, it looks like doing nothing isn't an option... but does it make more sense to renovate the existing building, or rebuild (possibly on another site)? orartswatch.org/keller-audit…
