[turns chair around, sits in it backwards, addresses camera] hey, human kids. you know, it's all well and good to listen to Tom Waits. Sure, we've all stashed a copy of "Swordfishtrombone" behind the toilet tank, there's no shame in admitting it. But if you find yourself identifying too closely with his music, you're headed down a dark path, amigo.

if you find yourself nodding, sighing and wistfully whispering "same" into your bourbon-stained pork-pie hat while listening to "Rain Dogs," it's time to seek help. remember, the first step is to stop eating cold beans out of a dead hobo's shoe down by the Cadillac graveyard off 34th and Calico, using your broken dreams as a spoon.

"Piracy can't be stealing if paying for it isn't owning"

This is increasingly how it feels, when things you "own" digitally become inaccessible, and when shows which are locked in streaming services can get delisted on a whim, disappearing forever.

Thank you @Illuminatus for this quote.

[Edit: In case this wasn't clear, this is about entertainment and digital ownership, not physical goods]

attention and : allow, for just, a moment your elders to pass on to you the sweet, lilting refrains of an anthem of seasons past. let it lift thy spirits and inspire both young and old to persevere in times of darkness.

We're half way through the fundraising period.

There are just 5 days left. I know everyone is tired (including me) lol. But let's get through this and hold the British Museum accountable!!

If you ever wanted to do something about the British Museum's theft, please spread the word:

Unfortunately, every 4th of July, I remember the GOP senators who spent it in Moscow with Putin. Was an investigation ever done? #july4th

Emotionally drained 

@JulieSqveakaroo i'm so sorry. you are a sweet, kind, hard-working and life-loving person, and the Raccoon is the same. if that's a source of disappointment to her mom, then her mom has misplaced expectations and should get her shit looked at by a professional.

The FCC is accepting applications for new, low-power, community radio stations the first week of November.

This is huge, you guys, this window rarely opens (the last time was 2013), and as you know, KUZU shows one way LPFM can be a foundation to build valuable community information resources.

The Grassroots Radio folks are holding a conference in West Virginia to help folks out with this.

Please boost and share.

#Twitter vs #Mastodon

Twitter is like a top of the range Lamborghini but you’re trapped in the boot full of broken bottles and it’s being driven over a cliff by a madman.

Mastodon is like sitting in the back of a dilapidated VW camper van, with knackered suspension, no air conditioning, but lots of nice passengers having a sing-song and there’s a dog called Mr. Snuffles.
