Memes Are Burning

You need a title here, Carin

Hello everyone and welcome to the new week! Today is Juneteenth and I would be remiss if I didn’t mention some of the celebrations happening around the country this past weekend. Obviously they’re following this advice advice:

While many have treated the long holiday weekend as a reason for a party, others urged quiet reflection on America’s often violent and oppressive treatment of its Black citizens. And still others have remarked at the strangeness of celebrating a federal holiday marking the end of slavery in the nation while many Americans are trying to stop parts of that history from being taught in public schools.
“Is #Juneteenth the only federal holiday that some states have banned the teaching of its history and significance?” Author Michelle Duster asked on Twitter this weekend, referring to measures in Florida, Oklahoma and Alabama prohibiting an Advancement Placement African American studies course or the teaching of certain concepts of race and racism.

Moving on …

So, my new obsession is Sleep Token. People love or hate ST, and I’m firmly in the LOVE category. First some background info from Wiki:

Sleep Token are a British rock band from London, formed in 2016. The group are an anonymous, masked collective led by a frontman using the moniker Vessel. They have been categorised under many different genres, including alternative metal, post-rock/metal, progressive metal and indie rock/pop. After self-releasing their debut extended play (EP) One in 2016, the band signed with Basick Records and issued a follow-up, Two, the next year. The group later signed with Spinefarm Records and released their debut full-length album Sundowning in 2019, which was followed in 2021 by This Place Will Become Your Tomb. A third album, Take Me Back to Eden, was released in May 2023.

The front man (Vessel) does most of the writing with the help of the drummer, and apparently on the album plays ALL the instruments but the drums. The new album dropped a few weeks ago and it is amazing.

Amazing, right?

Dump truck fire Sunday

Many of you may not know that I moved to Montana five years ago to fulfill my lifelong dream of dragging dirt up mountains.

Along the way — finding interesting rocks.

I dragged a friend with me.

I get to see interesting wildlife.

The weather is interesting.

Happy Sunday!
