Would you like some Scottish violins?

This came to mind for #JukeboxFridayNight - RANT are four violinists from the north of Scotland and Shetland, and this song, Rosemarkie Man, is a stormy roar for the wild Black Isle. Ideal for #SheMakesMusic. Enjoy.

To all that say that acquiring Legacy will not harm people and that poor #JKR is just saying thing and it's her right..... She's comparing people wanting independance with #nazis.

She litterally gives money to fight the independance, to promote the #Tories (you know, the ones that are destroying #NHS and every #workers' rights in #UK), to help #TERF that attacks #gay and #trans rights (and also #women rights because they're that stupid)....In summary, yes, she's hurting real #people.

If you buy anything Potter, she will get money. It's not that hard to understand.

Oh and make yourself a favor, READ ANOTHER BOOK !

her heinous patterns of attacking people was not recent. Not sure if she really stopped funding the anti- independance (notably because of the stance of #Scotland on #trans #person).

Today in Labor History August 11, 1964: Stuart Christie, a Scottish anarchist, was arrested in Madrid, Spain while attempting to assassinate Francisco Franco. At the time, Christie was 18 years old. He faced execution by garroting, but was, instead, sentenced to 20 years. Franco released him after three years, supposedly because of his mother’s plea for his release. He went on to found Cienfuegos Press, The Free-Winged Eagle and The Hastings Trawler. In 2006, he created the online Anarchist Film Channel.

@CoolBlenderKitten I don’t know about the others, but the yachts attacked by #TeamOrcas off the coast of #Scotland are quite big and shiny - and expensive. 👉 https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/orca-rams-into-yacht-near-scotland-behavior-may-be-spreading-180982429/

@caesar @Rhodium103 I haven’t heard of the #orcas attacking small boats. The few reported recently near #Scotland and #Gibraltar were yachts 🛥️, one of which was in a race of VERY expensive playthings of billionaires. 👉 https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/orca-rams-into-yacht-near-scotland-behavior-may-be-spreading-180982429/

In any case, the hashtag #TeamOrcas is for shitposting against #WealthInequality and #BigOil fueling the #ClimateCrisis.

Last day of fundraiser to cover legal costs for climate protest. it is nearly there.

Are we engaged with what is going on here yet, the current weather changes globally are the result of the Anthropocene, protesters are facing prison terms while the larges polluters get tax breaks, investment and more exploration licenses. All while the world burns.

"for all the damage it causes (and for all the land it controls), grouse shooting contributes a minuscule amount to national economies: just 0.02% of #Scotland’s economy can be attributed to grouse shooting"
