A super hi-fidelity version of Darude’s « Sandstorm »

“The ruling theoretically applies to land borders, seaports, and airports — but in practice, it only applies to New York’s Eastern District.”

My favourite type of investigative journalism!

I won a longest eyelashes contest when I was a baby at a county fair. Maybe that still holds up?

And also “man, those toes weren’t even that long. Im glad I didn’t waste a cent on that tug.”

Only thing awesomer/worse than Magpie/Skunk could be Magpie/Racoon. Mischief lvl 1000000

I’m all in

Yesss! Didn’t know there was a “Paprika” movie! I loved the book.

Forgot about this one. Really great!!!

Kids in the Hall: Brain Candy one of my favourite comedies of all times. Watermelon Man is an old fave.

Oak my god, I’ve never heard of the acorn trick! To the rabbit-hole!

I always think it’s weird when I run into people that can’t whistle or make a horn sound blowing a blade of grass. I’m not even talking like those ear-piercing 2-fingers-in-mouth whistles, just regular Andy Griffith style.

Definitely understand there are many whistling taboos(as there should be, Russia) and some bored rural-ness that factor in.

A quick stroll down a single playlist:

Anti-Flag, Kendrick Lamar, Rage Against the Machine, Nas, The Casualties, Veil of Maya, Lil Nas X, Nirvana, MIA, Childish Gambino, The Vandals, JayZ, J Cole, Mdou Moctar, Juiceworld…

That’s not even getting into the stuff Im aging out of(and still quietly loving).

Man, the kids are alright.

Definitely not fewer protest songs. Lots of “new” protest genres exist now (punk, rock, rap, hiphop, reggae, still folk, etc.). Radio and television are way less relevant for reaching « protest » audiences (generally younger). Without the risk of conscription into a foreign war, the anti classist/racist/authoritarian protest likely sounds different.

The times, they are a-changing(but not much)
