With @AustinFC honoring the Armadillo with their new jersey, and @HoustonDynamo dropping one in candy paint purple for the city's hip-hop and slab culture, just need @FCDallas to bring out a Freddie King "Texas Cannonball" kit to complete the Texas Music takeover of Texas soccer!

The present so often conditions, even alters, our sense of the past. As evidence, consider this piece of pandemic-inspired Mudhoney revisionism from a rock history exam: "Grunge shows that it is okay to tell people to not touch you because you're sick."
Join us tomorrow 11/9 in San Marcos as we host Smithsonian music curator John Troutman @TheWittliff to discuss public history and popular culture, and I'm sure we'll get some updates on his work with Mack McCormick archive, too! #texasmusic

extremely proud of the way student journalists across the country have been covering student protests, ranging from wkcr to the daily texan to indiana daily news
"When I got separated form Sawyer, I couldn't report on this, because my first priority was to find him." The student journalists at WKCR are providing brave coverage and protecting each other while doing so. I'm in awe.
Happy Birthday @WillieNelson! Love you!
April 30. On this day 1968, it is the 56th anniversary of the occupation of hamilton hall and other buildings. These images are lionized on columbia’s website.
The fact that student journalists are having to correct misinformation from mainstream journalists who aren’t even on the ground… The fact that journalists couldn’t get access tonight… … days ahead of press freedom day and the Pulitzer awards…
Broke a spoke last night. 📸: Ryan Vestil
I've covered campus activism since the late 90s. Nothing that's happening on campuses now -- sit ins, building takeovers, encampments -- is at all outside the standard vernacular of student protest. What's unusual is administrators calling in riot cops on their own students
NEW: A felony charge against a Fox 7 Austin photographer have been dismissed, his attorney, Gerry Morris confirms. The DPS detective in the case withdrew a warrant after acknowledging it did not allege a felony crime but could later resubmit it later, Morris said.
It is really hard to focus on work — to do the quotidian tasks — when I know what continues to happen just miles up Congress from where I am
We cannot continue to nickel and dime teachers and school support staff. It's time for real solutions for teacher pay, so we can recruit & retain the educators our kids need to thrive. @LaFedTeachers fox8live.com/2024/04/27/tea…
One of my favs 💘
On this day in 1983, “Valley Girl” was released in theaters. The soundtrack is full of amazing artists and considered one of the best of the decade. The Psychedelic Furs, Modern English, Sparks, Men at Work, The Plimsouls, Josie Cotton, Eddy Grant, The Flirts, Payolas & more.
honestly im shifting into black uncle mode. i need one of the elders to teach me how to throw down on the grill. im bout to throw a midnight cookout
I know this is an unoriginal thought but it becomes clearer every day how many people who tweet about young people and their motivations haven’t had meaningful or sustained conversation with any teenagers or young adults.
More of this!! Continue to stream and request these artists. The audience is showing that the demand for Black country artists is there and increasing. Now’s time for the industry to follow suit.
Shaboozey's "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" rises to #1 on this week's Hot Country Songs chart, replacing @Beyonce's "TEXAS HOLD 'EM". This marks the first time in history two Black artists have led the chart back-to-back.
will whoever left a voicemail on my office phone just email me? I don’t even know where my office phone is
This is exactly what’s at issue. If a university is just an educational services corporation selling its product to customers, sure, this is right. But exactly what’s at issue is whether that’s the right way to think of a university. I, and student protesters, say otherwise.
Studying at a university doesn’t give you an unrestricted right to control its space, just as patronizing a bookstore doesn’t give you an unrestricted right to camp out in the nonfiction section
