...eventually arriving at an atmospheric conglomeration of multiple vocal lines and ringing synths. During the song’s surprisingly-condensed four-minute run time, the lyrics travel just as far as the music. They are amusingly self-deprecating: “The hot dog’s getting cold / And you’ll never be as good as the Rolling Stones;” plain psychedelic: “See the flash catch a white lily laugh and wilt;” and even socially radical, in a very moden way: “Stab your Facebook / Sell...
...march 26, President Obama announced that the U.S. and Russia will cut their deployed long-range nuclear arsenals by 30% over seven years. The START Follow-On Treaty, as it is known, is the descendant of a series of Cold War arms-control agreements that had an unlikely progenitor: the spectacular failure of the most ambitious disarmament program ever conceived.

But any hope of that will depend on realism's giving way to optimism--and the belief that an abundance of thermonuclear weapons isn't the most effective way to stop people from slaughtering one another...
