Someone dropped this on my timeline and now I can't find it. Thank you though. I remember this pumping out of my clock radio, while listening to the cool FM station.

#MusicBeforeBedtime is back tonight with #TheSpecials & #GhostTown
i thought kinda fitting with the self-inflicted extreme heat & draught. it's unbearable even here in the north.
#GifsArtidote: we can just all decide right now we won't go to work, indefinitely, until the billionaires give us back what's ours & put them on epsteins island to go fuck eachother to death without resources.
then we divide the wealth equally by 8B so each human gets the same. every one of us then gets responsibility to be guardian of a portion of the earth of which 3/4 has to remain wild natural habitat for all life, & we all will have to do what we can to protect & care for the planet, so we can sustain as many of us as possible, for as long as possible.
what do you reckon?

..All you can offer is love...respect , and be kind to people, and hope that they give it back. They sometimes donβt but they sometimes do. But thereβs that sense of hope. What else have we got?

Spent some time sitting in a nice cafe today with the dog (who was being bad and barking at all sorts of people) but listened to the whole album (2 cds) "Encore" from 2019 by #TheSpecials and was actually really impressed as it deals with all sorts of important issues soβ¦. hereβs a link to one song called B.L.M. but I can also recommend the whole album π
