Probably another post I'll pin.
It's a dishonest world, unfortunately.
I'm treating *all* new followers with a degree of skepticism and suspicion, and will definitely not automatically follow back everyone. Sorry if that offends you.

Basically the story of human history.
Expertise and devotion to truth is in the engineers & scientists. Power, ego and the sanctity of personal beliefs are in management. I'm oversimplifying (there are many exceptions to those stereotypes), but that's essentially how it goes.

We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️

Huge happy 80th birthday this week to the legendary #DollyParton 🎉- we are marking it with a parody of her 2nd number 1 hit, written by the #BeeGees. Our 🎶 version's called "Donald's Sewage Stream" - since he brought his sick drivel to #Europe #Davos #NATO & our #armedforces:

This is our parody of "Piece of My Heart" by the amazing soulful Erma Franklin. Our version addresses the situation unfolding with #Trump and #Greenland, & has rude words - it's called "Piece of Denmark". In solidarity with all fellow Europeans facing tariffs and trauma. #25th

"One of Us" was ABBA's final parting single - so we've adapted it into a 🎶 parody we're calling "Exodus" to reflect on the urinary trickle of Tory departures to Reform UK, most notably two driplets this week from the very bottom of the last government's barrel.

"Battle Hymn of the Republic" is not a song to be taken on lightly ... but in light of this New Year Trumpian news onslaught, we're sharing this adaptation, called "Battle Hymn of the Empire" - as Trump goes marching on, and dragging us all back to the nineteenth century.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

I feel like every European leader is waiting for the Trump storm to blow over.
But what happens if the storm invades Greenland, Cuba, Columbia, destroys NATO, abandons Ukraine, shrugs as China takes Taiwan?
Can post-Trump Dems put all that right again? Nope.
This storm changes everything.
