Starting The Mountain again.

This is a great album. Seriously.

I'm a real person. Jeez. Listen to this. Anyway...

I gave you love to fill old glory

I gave you dreams, you wrote the story

I gave you white sails to reach the sun

I gave you atoms you built a bomb

Now there is nothing, and I have gone

No more Mountain, no more song

No more prayers, sent into space

Only screens, left to see your face

Let's sail into deep water

Come on, my dear!

Take me across

Where there is neither happiness or sorrow

No victory, no defeat

Where the whole world is found in I

Let's sail the boat in still water

Come on, my dear!

Now take me to the other side

@musixmatch.bsky.social Hey, big fan. Is there any way I can help improve the lyrics available on Spotify for the Gorillaz album The Mountain?

Pretty good, but a few typos. Just want to help. Do you have docs or a repo or how does it work? Thanks

The Gorillaz album The Mountain has made me cry more than any other album in a week than I have for any other in my whole life.

This piece of art is such a diverse look at our modern landscape through the eyes of some of the most vulnerable in our world, and with such passion. Absolute love

Politics of semantics 😏

It's all very bad, and I don't want to take away from that reality when I say this, but we've had an awful lot of "I told you so" moments and I'm tired of not saying that so I'm saying it.

Very cool! I have grainy pictures I took of likely ancestors of these deer at Mudumalai in 2008.

Very cool GIS functionality here!

I just wonder, could the colors be a bit made to be a bit more intuitive as to how long ago the streets were plowed? Current colors seem random with no way of telling at a glace how long ago a street was plowed.

Something tells me that this is not realistically how the Internet functions, however.

The idea here is that I'm trying to set up a kind of virtual logical foundation space upon which ideas can be expressed subject to the rules of critical evaluative reasoning.

I suppose it is important to me to say that I consider the use of such cognitive distortions to be ultimately without merit in the Big Discussion.

The problem, therefore, I think, is that people with bad reasoning make bad arguments to people who don't know any better, and things get worse.

Critical thinking gives everyone an opportunity to participate in the conversation:

Cognitive distortions like biases, fallacies, and normalizing statements seem to permeate our culture--especially online--and it seems to me that they do very little to move the conversation forward.

But how do we establish common ground so that we have somewhere to start?

Critical thinking is essential to the process of engaging in civil dialogue, and without it our lives and the product of our time spent on this planet are much less meaningful than they could be if we all were to understand.

It seems to me that while it's difficult to try to understand all sides of an issue, it provides perspective that is important to the decision-making process. Without this attempt to understand what another side is trying to accomplish, we cannot truly be justified in seeking our own path.

I am registered as an independent voter and favor letting a politician's actions determine my opinion of them, not what they say or what action they say they'll take.

After returning to social media after several years avoiding it due to beliefs about how it wrecks society, I am aghast at how society has been wrecked regardless but see no other way forward for my need to participate in the important discussions taking place on a global scale.

It's called projection.
