  • The Daily Swarm has scans of Mixmag‘s pics from the inside of Daft Punk’s pyramid, plus descriptions of the actual equipment, all much better than the last ones I posted. Nerd alert.

  • Brooklyn Vegan’s got the scoop on the new Midtown Manhattan music venue, Terminal 5. Hell’s Kitchen is so hot right now.

  • Idolator continues its countdown of the 100 Greatest R&B Songs of All Time: 80-61 now posted.

  • Yellow Stereo has some new Imperial Teen tunes. Hooray Imperial Teen!

  • Popbytes has the trailer for the new Michel Gondry film Be Kind Rewind starring Jack Black and Mos Def as video store clerks who have to re-enact all the movies after the tapes get erased.
  • WE'LL BE BLUNT:

    We need to start raising significantly more in donations from our online community of readers, especially from those who read Mother Jones regularly but have never decided to pitch in because you figured others always will. We also need long-time and new donors, everyone, to keep showing up for us.

    In "It's Not a Crisis. This Is the New Normal," we explain, as matter-of-factly as we can, what exactly our finances look like, how brutal it is to sustain quality journalism right now, what makes Mother Jones different than most of the news out there, and why support from readers is the only thing that keeps us going. Despite the challenges, we're optimistic we can increase the share of online readers who decide to donate—starting with hitting an ambitious $300,000 goal in just three weeks to make sure we can finish our fiscal year break-even in the coming months.

    Please learn more about how Mother Jones works and our 47-year history of doing nonprofit journalism that you don't find elsewhere—and help us do it with a donation if you can. We've already cut expenses and hitting our online goal is critical right now.
