Yeah, but you know, feeding kids pizza and chocolate milk is a whole lot better than making them go hungry because of lunch debt.

Every once in a long while I watch something on YouTube without an ad blocker and am just... amazed. It is so much worse than what TV ads used to be. In an 18 minute video I had 5 ad breaks, most of which featured 2 ads (one short, one long). Just. So. Much. Interruption. Total enshittification.

I find it much harder to promote music - especially tours - since I quit Insta and FB and Twitt. Sad that so much of current DIY happenings rely on those shit outlets. And since ALL I HAVE is Bluesky, feels I'm screaming into the void. HAHA. That said, come to my UK shows please. Tell yr friends.

#ResistanceEarth It's hard to believe that it's been 20 years since the release of Al Gore's documentary "An Inconvenient Truth." It's not surprising that most of the observations made in the film have come to fruition or are on track to do so. We are living that truth. abcnews.com/US/scientist...

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇
Russ Vought (piss man) tweet about doing piss man shit: The National Science Foundation will be breaking up the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado. This facility is one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country. A comprehensive review is underway & any vital activities such as weather research will be moved to another entity or location.

We are going to punish somebody for this attack, but just who or what will be blown to smithereens for it is hard to say. Maybe Afghanistan, maybe Pakistan or Iraq, or possibly all three at once. Who knows? Not even the Generals in what remains of the Pentagon or the New York papers calling for WAR seem to know who did it or where to look for them.
This is going to be a very expensive war, and Victory is not guaranteed -- for anyone, and certainly not for anyone as baffled as George W. Bush. All he knows is that his father started the war a long time ago, and that he, the goofy child-President, has been chosen by Fate and the global Oil industry to finish it Now. He will declare a National Security Emergency and clamp down Hard on Everybody, no matter where they live or why. If the guilty won't hold up their hands and confess, he and the Generals will ferret them out by force.
Good luck. He is in for a profoundly difficult job -- armed as he is with no credible Military Intelligence, no witnesses and only the ghost of Bin Laden to blame for the tragedy.
OK. It is 24 hours later now, and we are not getting much information about the Five Ws of this thing.
The numbers out of the Pentagon are baffling, as if Military Censorship has already been imposed on the media. It is ominous. The only news on TV comes from weeping victims and ignorant speculators.
The lid is on. Loose Lips Sink Ships. Don't say anything that might give aid to The Enemy.
