Great to hear the fluid flow of your creativity expressing yourself fearlessly and informing those curious about some of the details of tightening straight jacket that you have been investigating. As well as identifying the threads and cords of the straight jacket I think we should especially focus on the fraying and fragmenting of the web of constriction almost as fast as new threads of the web is spun around us. I think ridicule is the most powerful weapon against the systemic forces we resist, even if they are more powerful than our worst nightmares.
Thanks for the comment Dave. Yes a bit of poking fun. We followed your lead in the noble pursuit of a counter-culture no longer ignored by those intent on a rather large enclosures act 2.0. It turns out they can’t leave well enough alone and so the counter narrative must move to a new phase of increased creative pressure into the culture at large.
Like what so many have said before, powerful and hard hitting and just need to spread it around and pollinate some fresh minds. Keep them coming. Loving all that you are doing.
I’m working on some lyrics around the working title ‘protection racket’ except now we pay the tribute and are not protected. Carbon scalpers are coming man…
Thanks Noel. I'm of two minds. It's great that there is so little content in this space because it's an open field and also "WHY IS THERE SO LITTLE CONTENT IN THIS SPACE?!" Thanks for getting the lyrics - I work hard to get a lot of details in there.
Hey man - love the song, nice one! And always good to meet a fellow rapper. I've dabbled myself in the past and occasionally still drop bars. Maybe we should collab some time.
An article in a Seattle paper (~8 years back) highlighted that recent college graduates, working locally in IT, earn the fourth highest pay in the nation.
A few paragraphs in, it was revealed that highest pay was to be had in (take a guess).....
ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA.
OOPS! They let that out?!?!!
Yes, keyboard warriors to flood all comment boards.
Most likely working in close tandem with unit 82ohoh

I’m up for it.
Talent.
Digging the lyrical poetry.

Haha, one of my favorite memes, "if you're not on a watchlist"
I want to respond ,just now, to a comment you made elsewhere, such:
"Oh, look, our currency is backed by oxygen and sea water. There is plenty of leverage. "
Perfect, LOL. And, what's more, you can trade you "carbon scalps" in at your local for .......a candy bar? A Walmart laser? A gas mask?

No mafioso "protection racket" has ever rendered anything but threats!!
Protecting their right to thievery.

Listen up hear meh yeah I know you’re there
Put me on a watch list I don’t care
(Literally me, very nice).
Yeah - fuck em. Love your work
I feel bad that I clicked on your Substack and video. Don't be surprised if it gets deleted. I am radioactive.
FUCK ASIO
FUCK WA POL
etc.
Don’t feel bad. The great thing about nobody’s like me is we are like weeds. Never ever get rid of em.
Facts. This is what I tell people as well. I am nobody special. I just have an axe to grind. I watch...and I wait.
Nice song, Thumbnail!
We need more rap like this -- speaking truth to power. Appreciate all the subversive sensory details, metaphors and rhymes. Great work!

"THIS TiME Daddy isn’t lying to me!
He promised he will buy me a pony!'
THIS TIME Daddy isn’t lying to me!
He promised he is gonna buy me a pony!'"
Love this part, good bridge, you don't always get something thought-provoking in the connecting parts. Nice flow, love the song.
Yeah thanks. Everyone abused always speaks to defend the bloody abuser!
Thanks I’m glad you liked that but. Most didn’t pick up on it.
Yes! Haha, if you speak out, you’re the “savior,” and should thus just be quiet so you’re not seen as psychologically ensnared, in it.
Bleh!
Going to feature this in Five Meme Friday... which is coming out on Monday this week.. LOL
Great - the watch list grows all the time. They are gunna run out of red flashing lights!
Hey man - love the song, nice one! And always good to meet a fellow rapper. I've dabbled myself in the past and occasionally still drop bars. Maybe we should collab some time.
I’d love to. I’ll DM you and we’ll find something to do there.
Awesome!

Sleeping a banker. My lyrics are rude but point to exactly what your showing.
Sell outs.
Very cool.
Thank you Kathryn
