Hi all, I'm easing back into social media, after worrying my brain would break.
My band mates and I reworked and recorded this civil rights classic to hopefully inspire others. It is public domain, so pass it on and use it as you see fit. In the end, only kindness matters. youtu.be/SR_E0Kuqvb4?...

I just read an article about Trump voters being shocked when they learned that the ACA and Obamacare are the same thing.
That's funny and depressing.
Just wait, dumbasses. You get the govt you deserve. When you cast your vote bereft of even the most basic grasp of issues you get fucked. Surprise!

When I was in grad school my interest in the work of Jean Baudrillard was often ridiculed and brushed off. It turns out he was absolutely right.

It sure took them long enough, but not really all in. "Consistent with genocide"? Really? WTF does that mean? How about: "Israel is engaged in the genocide of the Palestinian people."
So much damn waffling, ass-kissing, and hedging.

The UN has now formally found Israel's genocide "consistent with genocide", including the use of weaponized starvation.

An outstanding documentary by journalist and gadfly Chad Nance.
Because @bsky.app allows us to post YouTube links I’d like to offer my first feature length documentary “Life in the Sacrifice Zone”. In the mood where you need to see a community of working class people stick it to “The Man”? This might be the hour and a half you need.

Hey everyone. Just getting rolling here. My hope is that bluesky doesn't degenerate into a bunch of crap from right-wingnuts and hookers like Twitter did under Musk's "leadership."
Here's hoping!
