People are talking about immigration, emigration and the rest of the fucking thing. It's all fucking crap. We're all human beings, we're all mammals, we're all rocks, plants, rivers. Fucking borders are just such a pain in the fucking arse. Shane MacGowan.

Everybody has a responsibility for what they put out into the world. Rather than trying to figure out what other people should be doing, work on your own interactions in the world and whatever influence they have. All of it has an effect. Twelve years gone 🖤

This is so cool - Elvis Costello got banned from SNL for playing “Radio, Radio” on air when it came out - so decades later the Beastie Boys faked everyone out by playing the opening of “Sabotage” then Costello stormed the stage and they broke out into “Radio, Radio”
