Hi all, I'm easing back into social media, after worrying my brain would break.
My band mates and I reworked and recorded this civil rights classic to hopefully inspire others. It is public domain, so pass it on and use it as you see fit. In the end, only kindness matters. youtu.be/SR_E0Kuqvb4?...

This fuzzy little old lady is my favorite creature EVER. China Girl is a great listener who is always up for whatever it is we're up to. So glad she picked me to be her Human.

Yep, you have it right

Hey everyone. Just getting rolling here. My hope is that bluesky doesn't degenerate into a bunch of crap from right-wingnuts and hookers like Twitter did under Musk's "leadership."
Here's hoping!
