Some incredible things happen between music and your brain. You may remember from the book Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain. I’m pretty sure I included this book on my bookclub before, if I have not, I will in the future.

I’m getting pretty sick and tired of Trump, and every day is prolonging the “Trump TV show.” Oh the whole world thought it was funny while he was President for a while, but once he told people not to get vaccinated and not to wear masks and 600,000 fucking Americans died, suddenly it’s not so funny anymore. I demand the FBI to immediately release what blackmail Trump has on the bureau, and why it has been almost 777 days since Jan6th insurrection and he hasn’t been arrested. 777 means jackpot. That means all of this bullshit has been about money. I am glad I am not in charge because I want to fire half the Bureau right now. Jack Smith, hurry the hell up. Thank you.
