The joint is jumpin' all around me,
And my mood is really not in style,
Right now the blues flock to surround me,
But I'll break out after a while.

It doesn't work like that for everyone. Blues was unfairly distributed by the great immemorial genetic machine into people's hearts at the very beginning of spacetime. If someone meets the right environmental context, their genes of blues wake up (if they have any - if not, they will just sense some passing blues illusion). There's no turning back. You have to learn to live with it.

I spent some of my teenage years in Poland, soaking the blues music like my sweater soaks the marijuana smoke when I walk the street in East London.It activated the blues gene I have from my father. I've been on an opera therapy for many years, but it barely makes me want to shower. I'm doomed.

Generalising a bit, the world is doomed. And I'm not kidding.

A bit, a while, a little, ... - how many nations in the world do you think understand understatement?

Want to safe the world? Go vegan!

Necessary, possibly but probably nowhere near sufficient.

I think it would be enough if everybody went vegan. It would safe a lot of water and grain, reduce  transport pollution, we wouldn't have the problem with methane pollution (which is 25 more harmful to climate than CO2), we could restore forests too, ... and I could go to another safari without that much remorse.

BTW, the funny thing is that while Extinction Rebels blocked the underground stations again today, I had severe delays because of a train fault (I had to schedule my afternoon).

Even East London is doing something to reduce climate change

Mass tourism is destroying the planet! These days you have to pre-book a seat at the Blue Lagoon.

Even jet-setting vegans don't get out of jail.

Nice. That's the blues that was popular in the late 60s and the kind of stiff GM played. Peter Green(baum) was Gary Moore's hero, you know the story about the Les Paul guitar. 
It was the UK where blues and soul was made popular (mainly Eric Clapton) while white America was still listening to Perry Como and Andy Wiilliams and/or copying black artists. At the time I used to frequent the Afton club (held about 100 people) in Dundalk and every other week we would have shows from Them, Van Morrison, Thin Lizzy, Rory Gallagher, Taste and Skid Row. I managed once to get Gary Moore and Phil Lynott (Skid Row) to play at our school party. 

The 60s was the Showband Era. Kind of vanilla flavour
