OPEN POST: Tiny Desk Global and Eclectic

By


Why not some Tiny Desks for Wednesday? They come from Ukrainian Experimental Folk, Japanese All-Girl Punk, Soulful Spanish Guitars, Ecuadorean Swiss, and Saharan Africa. I threw in some Caroline Polachek, heavily influenced by the 90s vocal styles.

PECKERWOOD'S WEEKLY LUNOCRACY POST! For the Week of 11/17/25

Did you know there are over a thousand days left  until Trump's 2nd Presidential term is over? Holy fuckballs, I'm barely hanging on.  But there have been a few amusements this week (it's fun to see the RepubliKKKans squirm !), as well as a few horrifying  opinions and even more horrifying revelations. There's also the notion, with respect to the Democrats caving on the shutdown, that they might have lost the fight, but hey, they  won the war . Really?

Word on the street is that he'll retire in the coming year, which can't come too soon for many who believe that hobnobbing with terrorists  - who would otherwise be quite happy to imprison or kill his talent-free gay ass - is just tackiness.  Okay, your turn. Ready? Go! Photo Credits: Funkipedia, Getty Images

She's sporting a rare, more casual look complete with a serene face and flowing long hair. Liebovitz's signature moody lighting and background gives the photo a more intimate feeling.  The 61-year old former First Lady posted the image in honour of the new edition of Liebovitz's book, Women . In her caption, Obama praised the book for expanding how we see women and the lives they lead through her lens. The new edition of Women hit shelves on November 4th. Source: USA Today
