	6:44am Strandlund: Good Morning Brian and all!!
	6:47am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:34 Not by choice, it's just that I booked so many dance shows these months plus have work stuff and the usual errands, so I usually wake up at 6am, get back between 11pm and 1am, so not much time to check the news

	⚡ 7:20am NotARealDoctor: ↳ Song: "Clip: NEWS9-Greta Thunberg Protests COP29" by "n/a" Read this in a short comic earlier this morning and it seemed relevant: Meanwhile climate activists get thrown in jail - it seems like our only options now are death or revolution and it's hard to decide because revolution sounds like a lot of work

	7:47am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:45 I thought it was more recent... Winter Olympics in 2022?

	7:53am Strandlund: Jim the Poet: The MVP of WFMU!!
	7:54am Rick A: Good Morning Brian and All, The 1975 Mike Nichols' film Day of the Dolphin is about training dolphins to to deliver bombs. It's a feature film, though perhaps it was connected to some reality.

During an interview with 14-year-old reporter Jazlyn “Jazzy” Guerra on Thursday, November 14, Tyson, 58, was asked about the “legacy” he’d like to leave behind once his in-ring career is over. .... “I don’t know, I don’t believe in the word ‘legacy,’” Tyson said bluntly. “I just think that’s another word for ego. Legacy doesn’t mean nothing. It’s just some word everybody grabbed onto.” Tyson continued, “It means absolutely nothing to me. I’m just passing through. I’m going to die and it’s going to be over. Who cares about legacy after that?” “We’re nothing,” Tyson said. “We’re just dead. “We’re dust. We’re absolutely nothing. Our legacy is nothing.”

	⚡ 8:18am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ morphe' @8:06 At least in 2016, Trump nominated some people who were qualified. These guys get confirmed, it's not gonna go well.

	8:22am fred: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @8:18 Trump's going with recess appointments (or as Colbert put it, what Gaetz calls a date) to avoid any chance of a Republican growing a spine
	⚡ 8:23am NotARealDoctor: ↳ Song: "Clip: SABC-Deal reached on global climate credits... oh my god carbon credits are such a scam, just a way for the wealthy nations to push their responsibility off on poor nations for planting trees while they continue to produce emissions at alarming rates

	8:49am PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @8:47 I hear you. Hang in there and remember. Anyone who lived through the 1950’s did not think the 1960’s were possible, baby

	8:53am PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Fredericks @8:51 IT is not drying
	⚡ 8:54am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @8:42 Exactly. The little that I've read of Race and Reunion to this point, no one wanted to reflect on the horrors of slavery and, hopefully allow that to inform their decisions about the future they would create. They wanted to forget it as soon as possible. Part of the reason we have this clown a$$ president elect.

	8:56am Rick A: ↳ Song: "Chelsea Hotel #2" by "Leonard Cohen" Last night, I saw an amazing tribute to Leonard Cohen at Barbes in Park Slope. The musicians were exemplary, and they really made the music their own. They didn't perform this song, though they performed a range of songs from different eras. Another great show, Brian, thank you.
	8:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Rick A @8:56 Oh, nice, Rick A!
	8:57am PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @8:54 They grew happy in their forgetting. The reconciliation view. And close in it’s heels -The lost cause tradition

During an interview with 14-year-old reporter Jazlyn “Jazzy” Guerra on Thursday, November 14, Tyson, 58, was asked about the “legacy” he’d like to leave behind once his in-ring career is over. .... “I don’t know, I don’t believe in the word ‘legacy,’” Tyson said bluntly. “I just think that’s another word for ego. Legacy doesn’t mean nothing. It’s just some word everybody grabbed onto.” Tyson continued, “It means absolutely nothing to me. I’m just passing through. I’m going to die and it’s going to be over. Who cares about legacy after that?” “We’re nothing,” Tyson said. “We’re just dead. “We’re dust. We’re absolutely nothing. Our legacy is nothing.”

	8:53am PaulRobeson1924: ↳ Fredericks @8:51 IT is not drying
	⚡ 8:54am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @8:42 Exactly. The little that I've read of Race and Reunion to this point, no one wanted to reflect on the horrors of slavery and, hopefully allow that to inform their decisions about the future they would create. They wanted to forget it as soon as possible. Part of the reason we have this clown a$$ president elect.
