down down under West Virginia
down down in the pitch-black earth
down down underneath, she cried,
"my love is somewhere in that mountain"

one of the best covers out there in general. Alav ha shalom, Toots, you're missed.
"Which did you like better, Jedi or The Empire Strikes Back?"
"Empire"
"Blasphemy!"
"Empire had a better ending. Luke gets his hand cut off, finds out Vader's his father, Han gets frozen and taken away by Boba Fett, it ends on such a down note. That's what life is, a series of down endings. All Jedi had was a buncha muppets!"

other bad dreams
goin' up to Harlem with a pistol in his jeans
a $50 bill inside a paladin's hat
and nobody's sure where Mr. Knickerbocker's at
shine shine a Roosevelt dime
all the way to Baltimore and runnin' out of time
the Salvation Army always seems to wind up in the hole
they all went to heaven in a little rowboat
clap hands
clap hands
prejudice in America
it's like;
they hate Blacks, because at some level Blacks were "supposed to" always be convenient labor, then convenient labor who were also convenient markets, and how dare Black people want something even mildly INconvenient to capitalism like being free, being successful when they weren't "supposed to" be successful, or wanting bussing, affordable housing, a chance at college education.
they hate Queers and trans people especially as the ultimate in xenophobia; Queers demonstrate that the world can be just fine without it being exactly what we're handed as objective truth, and that's scary.
but US? We no longer are the convenience to power we were in medieval Europe; we don't even have the numbers to be sweatshop workers or a good marketing demographic. It's like anti-semitism exists almost entirely as its own convenience and the actual existence of Jewish people who get hit by it, is purely incidental.
Lots of random gunk, but some drawings and cooking talk too. Obsesses about DnD and related topics. Left-leaning/profoundly frustrated politics. Black lives matter; trans rights are human rights.
