This is something that I carry with me and play often. It comforts me; I hope it does the same for you.
It’s a spot-on soundtrack for this particular 4th of July.
Thank you, Mssrs Toussaint and Simon.

I hope that a day will come where the seriousness and vileness of child SA will supersede the need to make jokes about the perpetrators and their sexual deviancy. Every giggle and cackle happening right now is at the expense of those children.

It just feels like everything is being flattened. Rape, genocide, wildfires, etc etc is all just fodder for internet discourse rather than turning points that lead to… something, anything better or different.
It’s so true. It’s actually horrifying to see the memes and jokes about this.

I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making.
May we live up to her example.

This barred owl is watching you to ensure that you do not buy Starbucks coffee during the strike. Owls have excellent hearing, so it'll know if you cross the picket line. And they fly nearly silently. You'll never know what hit you.
