The Amazing Rhythm AcesThe Atlanta Rhythm Section
Both of whom turned out to be shitty soft/country rock, to my disappointment.

Good one. They were slightly later and British, but I'd almost throw Ace in there.

Dominic Grieve / Dominic Cummings / Dominic Raab
For me I think it is
category: Tory MPs who might be not completely evil or insane (obv still a little as Tories)Dominic Grieve / Nick Boles / maybe Philip Lee a bit now Boles is no longer a Tory(while Googling, surprised to learn Lee is younger than Boles, which I would not have guessed - sorry Dr Lee)
category: dangerous unelected mendacious loonsDominic Cummings / Daniel Hannan
category: please let me never hear about these terrible embarrassing people againDominic Raab / Gavin Williamson

I've spent 3 years or so thinking that the white-nationalist podcaster and youtuber Stefan Molyneux had created the computer game Populous, but found out today that it was Peter Molyneux (I think I was getting Stefan Molyneux mixed up with Scott Adams here as well, as in the trajectory from creating innocuous thing I liked as a kid in the 90s to reappearing circa 2016 as an insane advocate for crypto-fascism)

That Ironweed Trilogy was hella hyped back in the day, with prominent pull quote from none other than Saul Bellow.

Just found out that Golgotha was another name for Calvary. I thought I'd heard it was the location of the residue of the human waste that came off the crucified or the residue pile itself. Not sure where i got atht from, some horror type media, comic, book or film I think. Maybe they were just being poetic.
