Giving the whole album a listen today, then will decide if I buy just the album or the rainbow vinyl to display or the blacklight poster. The poster is very on brand for their theme and I'm old so on brand for me too I suppose. I do have display vinyl already, so adding this one to the mix would fit in just fine.
It is funny that the poster is so pricey though, guess with the resurgence of vinyl it's cheaper to get those made than flocked posters of yesteryear. -

Not that it makes it any less tragic and this government any less shit, just pointing out facts as of this time. -

Was Charlie Kirk merely an asshole? No.
Did he make multiple statements that reiterated that certain laws in the US are worth the violence they beget? Yes.Also, there’s at least one comment in this very thread wishing that the shooter had better aim.
Which was made well after my comment above.

AugustusFerdinand That's debatable.There was an assassination attempt on a Presidential candidate last year
That's debatable.
Catching up on old threads after being out of state for nearly two weeks, just commented in the previous thread that I'll be participating after missing last year.
Will figure out what I'm doing by the first progress post.
