@w7voa Looks like the governor of Nebraska’s family-owned industrial pig falrms are behind severe ground water pollution, and a resultant epidemic of childhood cancers.

    @HailsandAles This is by far my all time favorite, from the Hollywood Palladium on August 6th, 1971. Especially from Hard to Handle on - just on fire! It is far enough along that they played more in tune, young enough that they crackled with energy - and Pigpen!

    @dancinyogi @madrobin That’s my world! When I work at my moonlighting jobs on the coast, I work 12 hour shifts. So I imagine all the writing, film editing, guitar playing, or photographing I’ll do in between shifts.

    But then, I barely have the energy to get up and shower before my next shift.

    But I blame myself…

    It's 2023, and there's a US election in 2024 that will determine the future of climate change, war in Ukraine, the global economy, reproductive rights, and global fascism.

    And folks still want to talk about Cambridge Analytica in 2015, instead of stuff like this:

    https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/democrats-scramble-reach-voters-florida-cancels-mail-ballot-requests-rcna91294

    The reason you can't make any progress on:

    • Climate change
    • Reproductive rights
    • Trans rights

    Is because too many Black folk are denied the right to vote. Focus on that instead of your pet issue.

    RockerDoc,
    @RockerDoc@mastodon.social avatar

    @mekkaokereke @Ind3fatigable @mickeleh It is the fascist, white-supremacist GOP who are doing this, attempting to deny and squash Black voters. Not the Democrats, the GOP. Be mad at the GOP, not the Dems.

    @mekkaokereke @Ind3fatigable @mickeleh Agreed. I’m just saying that I think we’re in the middle of a struggle between fascism vs democracy.

    @fulelo Racist undertones everywhere, and seems to presume that owning a gun protects a person from violence — exactly opposite the modern evidence, showing that gun owners and their families have higher rates of murder and accidental death. Hmmm…
