My Sometimes-Long-Winded Thoughts
Nice winter
day. I headed out to get some essentials. Got what I needed.
Neil Young
is leaving Spotify, the music app. He says he is upset that Joe Rogan’s podcast
spreads false information about Covid and is on Spotify. Glad he is standing up
for his principles with little concern about the money he will lose.
Eric
Clapton, the guitarist from Cream and other bands says he believes subliminal
advertising makes people get vaccinated. He is a great guitarist and not a
medical practitioner. I say listen to his great music and don’t pay attention
to his medical advice.
Justice
Breyer and Biden held a press conference at the White House. Breyer certainly
has a long list of accomplishments. He spoke about his role on the Supreme
Court. He sure will be missed.
