fuck. does anyone remember that thing at school where they'd play a series of beeps and you'd have to run from one line to another back and forth, and the beeps would get closer together?? it was a sweep test, they were literally testing the frequency response of the PE class

Be sure to put your pronouns in your bio (or display name, if you want)
Even if you're not someone who disagrees with what the pronouns you were assigned at birth, it helps normalize sharing our pronouns and helps support those who do.
Please boost.

Some people claim that instance-blocking weakens the fediverse, and undermines the point of federation.
This is the opposite of the truth.
The point of federation is that it limits the accumulation of power: no single instance can control fedi, because users can always switch instances without leaving fedi.
This is why fedi and fascism are fundamentally opposed -- and why the ability to block fascist/abusive instances is the very heart of federation's power to serve its users.

sea shanties, rec list
And a final rec: if you get hooked on sea shanties, check out this BBC documentary about maritime songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqC2-wY_Axw It's really charming and has a ton of interesting tidbits (gutter girls!!!)
I hope this will be useful for someone! It's hilarious that shanties are blowing up like this, I hope it will get a lot more people to listen and sing and have fun with them.
I totally didn't manage to cram in all my favorites, so if you want more recs, hit me up!
8/8

sea shanties, rec list
One tip: if you're looking for long playlists of sea shanties, look for Assassins Creed! Shanties first appeared in AC III and became such a hit that they became a mainstay of the series. (BTW many current shanty fans got into them through AC, so if you're here because of TikTok don't worry about not being "real" fans :P)
AC: Black Flag: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uicC2MUZ24I
AC: Odyssey has absolutely beautiful all-woman Greek songs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EsC-TszgKE

sea shanties, rec list
Last but not least, there's what I call "modern sea shanties", or sea-shanty-adjacent. Some bands create completely new songs, adapt them into different genres, or are their own thing while being beloved by sea-shanty fans. Some examples:
"Northwest Passage", a famous song by the Canadian folk singer Stan Rogers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVY8LoM47xI
"When the Boat Comes In", an English folk song (here by Friends of The Shipyard and Fisherman's Fayre): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmBz5eGXB3o
