        Wow Paul Ryan really just vanished, huh?

        Remember those photos of him posing as working out? So strange.

          My theory was that he dipped out of the GOP spotlight to plan his return post-Trump and play the part of the reasonable conservative.

            When he returns to the GOP, it will be unrecognizable. It will be like Charlton Heston discovering the Statue of Liberty in Planet of the Apes.

            I agree with your theory, but I also agree with starik.

            Ryan is never going to be relevant again. I think the kingmaker at the 2028 Convention with be MTG. She dropped out before this war started, and won’t have to run in 2026. I look for her to become an omnipresent talking head, bemoaning how MAGA was sold out by Trump.

          Dude moved on to the Fox board of directors and private equity.

          If he was any more machine he’d have Roomba written on his ass.

      I know this post was supposed to be about “Every breath You take” and “Hey ya”, but these days “Born in the USA” and “Fortunate son” sung by conservatives come to mind.

    Rupert Holmes - Escape (The Piña Colada Song)

    It’s about 2 spouses planning to cheat on each other because they’re bored with their marriage. The only thing that saves them is he coincidentally responds to her personal ad in the newspaper and they laugh about it after meeting up. They’re shitty people

      Oh, yeah. Another one is Sad Eyes by Robert John, telling his his temp girl that his real girl is coming home today, she knew it was going to happen and he doesn’t want to see her cry. “I never used you,” lol.

      There are quite a few of them. One that’s been in the news lately is Lola by The Kinks, which Moby called unenlightened and he’s right. One I always found creepy was Cat Stevens’ Wild World saying goodbye to his lady, because whatever he’s wishing her it’s not well. “I’ll always remember you like a child, girl.”

      That’s not even starting with all the underage lyrics.

      The 70s were amazing for music, but there sure are some clunkers in there.

      And Lola never completely recovered, became an alcoholic, and she’s still trying to live in her past.

      For Barry, the song is pretty dark.

    Mr Brightside. I remember hearing the song when I was at uni, first thinking it was a real banger and in a drunken haze in a club started to actually listen to the lyrics and felt an uncomfortable connection, realising it was from the perspective of someone being cheated on and I’d gone through something similar at the time.

    Semi Charmed Kind of Life by Third Eye Blind.

    At first when I really heard the part about snorting crystal meth I thought I must have downloaded some weird cover like the ones you used to sometimes get from Limewire.

      Lmao, it was while reading this comment that I realized it wasn’t Semi-Charred Kind of Life, a mistake that ironically helped me see that it was darker than it seemed.

      It makes the line “I want something else to get me through this semi-charred kinda life” pretty obvious that he has negative feelings about it and from that I could guess that there was some kind of pain between the lines, though younger me thought maybe infidelity or some kind of mania (which I guess isn’t too far off the mark).

      That said, despite the hidden tone, that song always makes me feel good. The overt tone is just so upbeat!

    One of my favorite bands in China released a song called “Hang The Police” over 20 years ago. And they still play it live there. The chorus is going on my sign for no more kings protest this weekend:

    Hang the police under his shotgun. Hang the police before we are all murdered.
