Thank you, I love this.

I puttered with an oud for a couple years but it was not a good one and playing it was frustrating.

Would love to try a really nice one.

Anyone recommend a good iPhone app for Mastodon?

That’s literally all I’ve heard in the USA my entire life.

“We’re protecting you from: Soviet Communists Arab Terrorists Illegal Aliens Communist China ISIS Putin’s Russia”

I guess when your country can’t go 2 years without starting a war somewhere, you get used to it. -

It’s time for radical action and violent resistance.

We’re staring into the face of human extinction and people are still quibbling about consumer choice.

it’s going to take much, much more direct and violent action to force change.

“Think globally, act locally” and other such clever slogans that seemed so logical and made so little impact.

How about “round up the heads of oil companies and deliver them to a firing squad?”

Not as much zing to it though.

This is it exactly. We have to turn off the f*cking spigot at the source!

There is no amount of science or innovation that’s going to save us. It’s going to take “holy shit we’re all going to die horribly” panic from world leaders to forcefully cut off the source, which is oil and its byproducts.

Short of that, no amount of responsible consumerism can stem this tide.

Why wait for them to act? It’s already bad enough.
