OK Go - "This too shall pass"
I hadn't seen the "behind the scenes" video before,
and it makes the video take even more amazing.
This video always makes me happy-as-a-childš - from the delicate xylophone, to the children's banging on the drums at the end.

The 2027 American War with Canada â A Soldierâs Perspective - A tale of humorous woe from the sub-arctic front lines
The year is 2027, and the war that America launched on Canada rages on. Our first attempt at economic conquest failed in 2025, when they formed close ties with Asia and Europe to stave off the starvation effects of our tariffs. In 2026 we turned to outright military attack, in an attempt to turn them into the 51st state. We threw the first punch. In imperial.Itâs now 8 months into the conflict with the Snow Mexicans, with no end in sight.
Below is a letter from an American soldier on the front lines of the 49th parallelâŚ

Indisciplined Lucy - "Epilogue"
While going through some old diaspora* posts, I came upon a ten-year old post where I'm trying to remember a specific song, but couldn't figure it out. The song I linked to then wasn't it.
I did another search now, and it turns out that seven years after that post somebody uploaded the song I was looking for!
"Epilogue", from the Clown EP (1996). I think I borrowed it from the library?

"Motor girl", by Terry Moore
Finished #reading Terry Moore's "SIP Kids" yesterday,
and finished both volumes of the "Motor girl" series today.
SIP Kids was a very light-hearted read after the Rachel rising series.
If it hadn't been part of the Humble Bundle, I'd probably just lent it from the library instead of owning a copy myself.
Motor girl worked with other issues, but no Rachel rising horror.
It's about a war veteran, and the PTSD after having done three tours to Iraq, and coping mechanisms, and now weaving actual reality with old reality. And fighting off government-but-not-government experiments. And UFOs.
And then an aunt we've met in an earlier story has a supporting role in all of it.
Oh, and: I guess this genre should be tagged as #GraphicNovel

So, as I suspected: From a #federation standpoint, posts originating from Friendica is probably the most effective?
(The goal being posts that reach â and can then be re-shared on â both diaspora*, Friendica, and Mastodon.)
The Mastodon-Friendica connection works fine, but Mastodon posts reshared via Friendica doesn't seem to reach diaspora* (at least not within a reasonable time span đ¤ˇ).

I know that Mastodon isn't directly visible on diaspora*, but I'm hoping that a re-share via Friendica will work. ⌠đśâđŤď¸

"Rachel rising", by Terry Moore
Finished #reading Terry Moore's Rachel rising series
(it, too, was part of the Humble Bundle).
I kind of stopped counting all the dead people after a while. And that was just the first volume.
I'm not much for horror, but quite a lot of it just went past me.
Until the last volume. I could have finished it yesterday, but I had to take a break.
So. The story. It's biblical. Years of revenge, on a god-forsaken scale.
And in the middle of it all, there's a nice, non-violent, throwback to an earlier story.

xkcd 1357: Free Speech
This one's old, but I still find it relevant.
xkcd alt-text: I can't remember where I heard this, but someone once said that defending a position by citing free speech is sort of the ultimate concession; you're saying that the most compelling thing you can say for your position is that it's not literally illegal to express.

"Echo", by Terry Moore
Finished reading Terry Moore's Echo series, which was part of the Humble Bundle I bought a month ago.
When science out of curiosity leads to science for the better good but is run-over and exploited, and "just because something is possible, doesn't mean it should be done", and military who "just wants to one-up the other guys (consequenses? huh?)", and there are other things in life that hold value.
