TMBG posting day seventy-nine!

Happy John Henry Day!!!
This was TMBG's 5th studio album and came out on September 13th, 1994. It was the first album with a live backing band!!! Many TMBG fans at the time were annoyed and felt that they "sold out" and would never be the same. They're not the same. Things evolve and they're better now!!! I was never one of the JH haters but it was quite trendy at the time to be one.
More photos and stuff about this here!!!

The Austrian economist's principled thought once served as a check on the intellectual right.
Ludwig von Mises, a foundational figure of modern libertarianism, was also for decades a hero of the American right. In George H. Nash's magisterial 1976 history The Conservative Intellectual Movement in America Since 1945, the very first chapter stars the Austrian economist and his students and associates, saying that "it would be difficult to exaggerate the contributions of…Ludwig von Mises to the intellectual rehabilitation of individualism in America."

Hey there, fans of They Might Be Giants!
Do any of you remember when the band, They Might Be Giants, visited the Edison Museum in New Jersey on April 27, 1996?
Remember when They used a wax cylinder, which was an early type of recording device, to record some songs?
Well I sure... don't...
Yeah, I wasn't born yet. Sorry...
But yeah, it was just a little experiment to test out old technology with the band, They Might Be Giants', music. And where better to do it than in the house of the guy who invented it?
Would you like to read more about it, as well as see some more photos from the event?
No, you don't?
Well, TOO BAD! Here it is anyway!
The photos include behind the scenes of the band (and some other guys, I guess) getting everything set up, as well as They Might Be Giants' backing band at the time!
C'mon, you recognize them too, right?
You uh... I'm sure you recognize one of 'em... R-Right?
Oh come on, I can't be the only one here who knows who they are, right?
Anyone??
Eh, screw it. I'll just include their names in the tags. I just hope you know who's who...
THE SHADOW OF VIOLENCE (2020) Grade: B-
Interesting, dark, tough with really good direction. The ending was a little predictable but the rising action was entertaining
Brian Doherty: Inside The Book of Modern Libertarianism
“Brian Doherty provides a concise, thorough account of the intellectual roots of the American libertarian movement, with helpful summaries of key figures, institutions, and events. A superb introduction for the newcomer, yet rich and varied enough for others interested in the tradition, “Modern Libertarianism” is a tribute to those who advocated for the cause of political liberty in America in…
