In memory of Lux Interior.
80 years ago, Erick Lee Purkhiser, better known as Lux Interior, singer and co-founder (alongside Poison Ivy) of The Cramps, was born in Akron, Ohio.

This year's uber-grotesque of a Peace Prize winner was chosen from a field of 287 candidates. How'd the Nobel committee explain such a brazen piece of complicity with anti-Jewish malignancy, human rights abuses, cruelty and dictatorship?
The way they all do, of course, with dishonest, pseudo-pacifist references to international law and peace.

He’s made the world laugh. But when it comes to hate, Sacha Baron Cohen – who turned 55 this week - isn’t joking.
Best known for Borat and his outrageous characters, he showed a very different side of himself at the Lincoln Memorial on the 60th anniversary of the historic March on Washington.
No costumes. No characters. Just a powerful message about the dangers of antisemitism and racism, and the responsibility we all share to confront them.
Watch what happens when one of the world’s funniest men gets serious and share it with someone who needs to hear it.

David Bowie | Warszawa
An ideal representation of Bowie & Eno's partnership, the former evoking the bleak atmosphere of his prior trip to the Polish capital, and the latter creating the 'song' while Bowie was away on legal business. The finished piece stands testament as one of Bowie's Berlin era defining masterpieces.

The time we played CBGB in NYC with a bizarre band called Life,Sex & Death & they spelled our name wrong on the handbill. Can you spot it?
.@ItsGrahamParker Hi GP. Thought you might enjoy another look. This one is for you and it's honours your incredible songwriting. youtu.be/h1ivTESgOWY @Watchmenmusic @listentodg
Best of luck @JesseBrown. Grateful he continues to speak out about antisemitism and pushes back when anti-Zionism crosses the line into denying Jews a homeland. (P.S...He wasn't fired).

The world demonizes Israel 365 days a year.
Perhaps, for just one day—October 7th—the critics of Israel could take a vacation from their hysterical hatred of the world’s only Jewish State and find it within themselves to express condolences for the thousands of Israelis murdered, maimed, mutilated, raped, and abducted at the hands of Hamas.
Jewish teachers deserve the same safety, dignity, and protection as everyone else. I stand with them and support their call for accountability.
Twelve Jewish teachers and educators have filed human rights applications against four Ontario school boards and two teachers’ unions, alleging systemic antisemitism and discrimination in their workplaces. toronto.citynews.ca/2026/10/…
Before Metallica there was Venom. The first time I experienced Venom as a teenager, they scared the hell out of me. That’s the mark of great art. #RIPCronos.

On a FlyDubai flight from the UAE to Israel, an Omani pilot stabbed his co-pilot and put the plane into a nosedive, dropping 17,000 ft in less than 2 minutes.
It was only due to the bravery of the ordinary Israelis onboard that stopped this ending horribly.
@sulkinmaya dives into how the media, once again, downplayed the targeting of Israelis.

We've added the Heritage Prize posters for The Watchmen and Willie Dunn to our website which felt like a great excuse to revisit this video from this year's poster creators aftermodern.lab. Check out all of this year's posters at polarismusicprize.ca/posters…
🔑 A lot happens between “I think we like this one” and getting the keys. For first time buyers, understanding those steps is just as important as finding the house.
From house hunting to homeowner.
Congrats to my clients on 460 Davisville Ave. @HouseSigmaAI

Squeeze - "Cool For Cats". The pure essence of British New Wave, 1979.
Witty, Cockney, and incredibly danceable.
If you know, you know. This song is 45 years old and hasn’t aged a bit. Still just as fresh, still just as clever. Do you agree?
Yes
To celebrate Mark Sandman’s 74th birthday, we’re thrilled to announce Cocoon, Morphine’s first new album in 26 years via @partisanrecords, releasing on December 4th.
