  • King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Planet B

    Lyrics:

    [Verse 1]
    Open your eyes and light the fluid
    Get into it, petrol siphon
    Low on meals, browning fields
    Bury children

    [Chorus 1]
    Urbanization
    Scarification
    Population exodus
    There is no Planet B
    Open your eyes and see
    [Guitar Solo]

    [Verse 2]
    Open your eyes and shoot the dingo
    While this shit goes out the window
    Multi-factions
    Rusting tractors
    Dying hero

    [Chorus 2]
    Only way through is colonization
    Acclimatization
    Population exodus
    Monetization
    Civilization
    The operation has begun
    There is no Planet B

    [Bridge]
    Patient seasons
    Blacked out for ages
    Dreaming of cake
    Snowflakes blanket
    Old deserts
    Outskirts disperse
    Earth is a blank verse
    Last hearse
    Dry nurse
    (Oh!)

    [Refrain]
    Open your eyes and see
    There is no Planet B
    There is no Planet B
    There is no Planet B
    There is no Planet B
    There is no Planet B
    There is no Planet B
    There is no Planet B
    There is no Planet B
    Open your eyes and see

    [Outro]
    Sinners are grinners, ear to ear
    Baby Jesus sheds a tear









  • As lower middle class hippie, who is on the poor end of even that and was born and live in an area that’s known for hippie types, I strongly dislike most of those upper middle class “hippies”. For most of them it’s fully a surface level thing and they are a big part of many negative views people have about modern hippies. And it’s always so fucking funny when a group of them go to where actual leftist hippie types hang, bars or whatever and think they don’t stick out like a sore thumb. They walk in looking like shitty parodies and act exactly the same as the snobby people who are strongly disliked there. I’ve even seen some who does the whole keeping the price tag on thing like that’s something that wouldn’t be laughed at.



  • There’s a song that is sung at (I’m pretty sure) all schools in my country, a part of everyones childhood, that goes like this:

    “Last night I dreamed, something I’ve never dreamed before. I dreamed there was peace on earth, and all wars were over. I dreamed of a giant hall, where townsmen sat in a row
    Then they wrote on an envelope, and stood up and said: “There are no more soldiers, there are no rifles. And no one knows that word military anymore” On the streets, people walked around and went from pub to pub. And everyone drank each other, and danced and smiled.” (Those are translated from the Swedish lyrics, didn’t think of copying the original ones).

    It’s originally an American peace song by Ed McCurdy, but the cover by Cornelis Vreeswijk has become ingrained in Swedish culture in a major way. I think of it often, and dream of a world where any of that is true.





  • ITT: a disturbing amount of multi paragraph comments and replies from a disturbing amount of people doing unbelievable levels of mental acrobatics to say “nothing can be done, it’s too late, everything is good now”.

    Fuck you, nothing anyone has written in a try to make this bad comes even close to a valid point against this. All you’ve managed to do is show your ingrained racism and inability to feel empathy, sympathy and understanding of struggles you, your family and any close relative withing a few hundred years have gone through.
