Ages ago, we ran two crowdfunding campaigns for MediaGoblin. What many people don't realize: this paid for much of the work on standardizing ActivityPub.

This was the crowdfunding video: https://0ad234850b34c1ebd620-6d473e87a2e70e18945218dbb27a6c68.ssl.cf2.rackcdn.com/mediagoblin_campaign2_video.webm

Took me a long time to animate, but I'm still proud of it...

I re-recorded the vocals using a pop filter made from a sock and the lip ring from my nutribullet XD Whatever works! Also added a bit of harmony on the chorus.

CW: has themes of ghosts and guns.

This is #CC0 so feel free to make covers or whatever! I *think* the chords are A minor / Fmaj / Emaj / Gmaj but I suspect the instruments in LMMS were in a different key so it's perhaps not XD

Oooh, I just had a good idea for pro-torrent propaganda. >:3

The CDC's eviction moratorium in an incredibly important piece of public-health law: people facing homelessness may not shelter in place when they're sick, and people who are rendered homeless are at risk of both contracting and spreading covid.

Despite this, many states and cities have treated the moratorium as a suggestion, not a binding law, and, of course, it's hard to get justice when you've just been evicted (the CDC seems to have brought *zero* enforcement actions against violators).

(*) Pleased is an understatement, but I have to keep some semblance of order around here.

My shanty with crappy vocals yay

Not putting it on Funkwhale yet as a friend has expressed interest in adding some guitar and maybe some deep voice singing :o

Shanty preview! No lyrics, and this is just the first two verses worth.

Going through things at my mother's house, she can no longer appreciate her garden. But honestly it needs to be seen. #florespondence
