stood firm when the winds of change were fiercest

Opposing change isn't progress, by definition

Im 33 and my dad used to play this when i was 6 playing in the backyard. I used to ask him "dad can you play the whistle song?" Im so happy to have found this song again. It takes me back to such simpler times. ❤

[–] ChaosMaterialist@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

I caught that too, and now I'm wondering if that was an intentional dig that passed the filter
