    To be clear I think the right to sexual freedom (including not feeling sexual attraction or wanting to engage in sex) is one of the most fundamental rights that we have to protect with everything we have and I also think if you’re grossed out by gay sex you’re homophobic. Love and light

As an Indigenous nation who is severely impacted by climate change, I call upon you to lead with climate justice and Indigenous justice at the forefront of your decisions.'

    This Year (10/04/04)the Mountain Goatsimage

    Audience member: "Hey John, can you play “Going to Maine”?"
    John: "No."
    *Audience laughing*

    John: "We’re gonna play a new song again, if that's cool with you. Alright. Thank you. This song is a true story. *laughing* That’s the saddest thing about it. I hope that if you should happen, and if you do, don’t let anybody tell you not to but uh… If you should happen to be having the sort of year I was having when I was seventeen, you may feel free to sing along with the chorus, nobody’s gonna hold it against you. Uh, I know that twice that uh, I *to Peter Hughes* can I out you? This is Peter’s favorite of the new songs I think precisely because of the chorus. *laughs* It’s called “This Year”."

    [The first time "This Year" was played live]
