To spotlight this episode in the life of the human allegory for Republicans ignoring the needs of the many in the pursuit of their own indulgences, this weekend's music thread is dedicated to songs about locations around the world including Mexico, to which Republicans may flee when the going gets tough.
To celebrate Spring, which those of us staying safe at home during COVID-19 will just have to take on faith that it's here, this weekend's music thread is for planting songs about nature. Trees, rivers, fields, flowers, any songs about the living world around us are ripe for this thread.
Tomorrow is Mother's Day and despite all the differences Americans have, one thing they have in common is that they all have mothers (though some may accuse motherhood as being a socialist hoax). So this weekend's music thread is for songs about mothers, women, children, families and love.

To celebrate the incredible achievement of Dems, Pres. Biden, Speaker Pelosi and even some Repubs passing the infrastructure bill (and that there really is an "Infrastructure Week" finally), this weekend's music theme is about things getting better, being good and working out nicely.
This weekend's music thread is giving the green light for songs about cars, hitting the road, going places and your favorite songs to listen to when you're cruising.
It's Friday which means tonight's the night for Vox Populi, our weekly live chat with your fellow members about the week's events (and you...
