Hope I’m not intruding, but here’s my contribution to something different.

Humanity, F*** Yeah!
https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/

Fanfic of how awesome humanity is when confronted by space and space aliens from outer space.

Some of it’s actually really fun to read and pretty well written. And if you get the hankering, you can write some yourself.

Anyhoo, it is something different if someone needs something to distract themselves with.

Not the mood for this. These are tense times. Play Beethoven’s third or some Wagner.

Okay, I’ll see your bets and raise you a Morricone. From one of the greatest ever movies and brought to you by the maestro himself. The last few days his music has been calming me down. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSkyoyyvnAY

This old Irish tune sung by Anna and Elizabeth touches the soul, especially for those with Irish ancestry. It’s a haunting song about leaving behind everything in Ireland to come to America. Fantastic dissonance that speaks to the sadness Irish immigrants felt while hoping for a better life here. It’s all the more sad to know that half of this country has lost that dream.

Enjoy.

Whew—yes, love those dissonances. That is some intense, austere, poignant stuff.

They’re great, aren’t they? Simple, no fkuff. Just pure music. Some of their other tunes bounce around in your head for awhile after hearing.
