The Bright Spots

[kosmo vinyl]

Because we a bunch of bad news ninnies in these parts these days.. figured it was time for a thread of positivity.  And since A Ray Of Sunshine and Some Good News were already taken.  I present "The Bright Spots"

Hopefully, everyone has already seen the story about the guy who sheltered 70+ protesters the other night in DC.

Yesterday, VA State Rep Danica Roem and all around bad ass helped raise 15K to help rebuild Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church in Gainesville.  Church was set on fire by an arsonist in 2012.

Sort of in the grey area of positivity, but I enjoyed seeing certain entities getting dragged over their participation in yesterday #blackouttuesday event.  namely The Redskins, The SF Giants and ESPN.  I'm sure there were others...

Bonus it appears that The Bright Spots is available for any aspiring Power Pop band.

sure especially when you add that a African American Woman was elected mayor of Ferguson, MO.

Getting a second stimulus check!!

Getting a second stimulus check!!

I mean that would be a thing if it were happening any time soon, but there's no consensus on the Hill, and Trump and McConnell have called the House bill dead-on-arrival. Have you heard anything different?


on edit: it would help if I read the other thread about this before commenting here

Saw the capitalization in the title and saw the topic starter and I was certain this was going to be about a side project by members of The Magic Numbers.

I think they're opening for the White Stripes in 2021.

I went to the howard county protest yesterday in my car. I have been in isolation because of asthma, and was sad to not be out there walking with everyone. There were SO MANY people there, both walking and in cars. It was inspiring to see so many young people. It made me hopeful that change will happen.

FYI Krasinski has sold Some Good News. 


so i'm not buying into your hype, kosmo.  you're going to get us all amped on Good News, next thing you know we're your serotonin junkies, and then you sell us out to some multinational media corporation.  you get all the money, we're left with sold-out empty dreams.  no thanks.

I just got home

My 10 year old son tells me “I found a deer head!”


I am like “no you didn’t”

He goes to his room and next thing you know brings a deer head..a young deer

I nearly had a heart attack

That's awesome!  Was it just the skull or did it still have flesh and eyes?

Had all the flesh, eyes everything!
