Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are trying to suppress the publication of the JD Vance dossier (possibly because it is full of withering criticism of Trump by Vance) But while Musk can, and does, block free speech on Xitter, he can't block it here, and you can find the dossier at [ā€¦]

Seattle/Washington State Friends! My mother has agreed to move in with my sister if, and only if, we can find safe housing for her dogs. My sister is deathly allergic and I'm out of the country. Anyone looking for a hiking buddy? #Dogs#Seattle#PNW

Two brown, black, and white medium-sized dogs with long fur on a trail overlooking the Rocky Mountains.
A bright-eyed puppy with brown eyes, mostly black long fur, some white on her nose, and touches of golden brown. She looks very excited to see you.

In light of Jane's Addiction cancelling their reunion tour, here's a bit of infamous lore about the first time JA played Birmingham in 1989. Two excerpted bits are JA specific, but the linked article mentions this legendary venue's visits from RHCP, U2, Widespread Panic, Blind Melon, Black Keys, etc

Los Angeles band Janeā€™s Addictionā€™s show at The Nick, which took place Feb. 10, 1989 according to setlist.fm, is one of the venueā€™s most famous gigs. And most infamous. Jack Massey, then drummer with The Hitchcocks, a young Tuscaloosa band influenced by Husker Du and The Replacements, was at the Janeā€™s show. After a long wait following the support actā€™s set, Massey recalls once Janeā€™s Addiction unleashed their punkish art-metal ā€œthe place was swaying back and forth, it felt like.ā€
Unfortunately, dreadlocked Janeā€™s singer Perry Farrell ā€œstarted dogging Birmingham,ā€ Massey says, ā€œtelling people from the stage, ā€˜You should move from this stupid town. I canā€™t even find heroin here.ā€™ā€ After some boos from the crowd the band rocked-on, but ended their set after only about 30 minutes. Once they walked out The Nickā€™s side stage-door, Janeā€™s Addiction was gone for good. No encore. Less than a year later the band would be headlining UAB Arena on the strength of sophomore album " Ritual de lo habitual" and hit ā€œBeen Caught Stealing.ā€ At the UAB gig Farrell apologized onstage for their Nick showing, Stallings says. These days Massey drums for The Ladies Of, a band fronted by James Hall, formerly of Mary My Hope, the Atlanta band that opened for Janeā€™s at The Nick.
