YouTube video by The Tom Lehrer Wisdom Channel Tom Lehrer - Poisoning Pigeons In The Park

Very sad to learn of the demise (as he would no doubt want it described) of Tom Lehrer. The pigeons shall rejoice this day!

Love these. I came here to tag @aptshadow.bsky.social and then realised I had only seen it because he’d reposted it 😅

The question I always ask myself with stuff like this is “what’s the story they’re trying to bury under this one?” - but this particular US administration doesn’t actually seem to care about hiding any of the awful, venal, cruel stuff they’re doing - they seem to celebrate it

Happy Easter

Also, not here to engage in whataboutism. I’m commenting on this specific case, with this specific individual

Again (again) - I am not contesting what is often a successful strategy - but *in this case* it seems not only pointless, but actively counterproductive, in that it allows Rogan to use an otherwise rational voice as ammunition

In some cases, I agree. In others - such as this - the person in question has demonstrated beyond all doubt that they are not in the slightest bit interested in good faith arguments

Ugh, no. Seriously? You ‘bonded’ with a science denying, conspiracy theorist Trump promoter? I am so disappointed right now. I think I just threw up a little into my mouth. How on Earth did you end up thinking anything good could come of this!?

One of my favourite authors voices exactly my thoughts on this matter. Some faith in humanity has been restored.

Now found and purchased, thank you 🙂

Ah, fantastic - thank you 🙂

Ah, fair enough. Thanks for replying! Huge fan of your work

@aptshadow.bsky.social Is there any way you can make this available on Kobo? I will never buy another book from Amazon, now they have made transferring the epub files impossible. A bookstore wouldn’t tell me I could only read a purchased book while in their store - that’s what Amazon is now doing
