Um, yeah. Lol. They're his peers and they've all been victimized by the same companies. That's why we have juries decide these things instead of magistrates.

While we were watching the sun set I told Summer we are going to have to keep a close eye on her pal. His temperature has been going up all day.
This always happens on the weekend.
I feel bad for him.
Now, I have to figure out how to wrangle some antibiotics.
Summer says we got this.
I hope so.

That’s what my worry is too. If we went to ER here and Drew needed antibiotics, they could prescribe antibiotics but not give any. Possibly a shot but then you’re on your own to fill a prescription. I just hope for you both it’s not anything serious - but that’s pretty iffy. Think of you all.

#AlternateFridayMusic
Dec 20 2024

The prompt is Zen

Deep Space Network, “Zenn La” from Big Rooms, 1993

Deep Space Network was formed in Germany by David Moufang and Jonas Grossman, released in Germany in ’93 on their own Source Records label, and in ’94 in the US by Instinct Ambient. Oh, how I used to DEVOUR those instinct releases…

Zenn La, the opening track of their first release, provides their perfect entry point. A trippy spoken passage welcomes you as calm waves of #synth guide you through the rhythmic threshold where the melody widens before you, with audio references to the natural world grounding the journey throughout.

This track isn’t formless #ambient, nor hyper-beat #IDM, but lovely, even soulful, true #ChillOut music.

Go on, start it up...let the spoken intro adjust your mind, then relax and let the music take you.

#AlternateFridayMusic for December 20 2024, the word is Zen

Artist: Ann Mortifee
Album: Born To Live (1983)
Song: Never Ending Search

I serve an unknown master in whom I don't believe
I wear a flaming eightfold wheel branded on my sleeve
I bow before a hidden throne I never will perceive
I seem to answer questions which I cannot conceive

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PE0bucawXjM

Ann Mortifee was born in South Africa and moved to Canada, and she is a powerful soprano singer. One of the first artists I saw live, and I loved her "Born To Live" and Journey To Kairos" albums as a kid.

I'm not sure if this song's lyrics are zen, but they feel vaguely Buddhist, at least.

Can we just deport #Musk and be done with it already? We do have an immigrant problem, and he's an illegal immigrant from South Africa and they can have him back, like yesterday? Pretty sure this is a widely held opinion.

@aburtch you know... Kyle Kulinski from Secular Talk actually said something along the lines of never expecting to say it, but he wishes that Trump would fight Musk and kick him out

Who knows what will happen... but for now I think Trump is biding his time getting money from Musk for favors... what happens next, who knows... but there's still plenty of quid pro quo going on...

He has bankrolled elections, stoked riots and ignored laws. We mustn’t make the mistake of playing nice with the world’s richest bully, says Guardian Europe columnist Alexander Hurst

maybe not exactly what you are looking for, but I use FreshRSS and Audiobookshelf. Audiobookshelf provides RSS feeds for your subscriptions so you can add them in FreshRSS pretty easily, and the feed items have embedded players so you can play the podcast directly from the feed (though I prefer to use audiobookshelfs dedicated app on mobile instead).

I think there are android apps that work with FreshRSS through the Fever API, but I found that the web app works just fine on mobile as is.
