I've been fascinated by them since I was a little kid.

Disappeared in a puff of smoke, guy.

I had a '78 CX500 with the same paint scheme as your 750. Mine was a V-twin... the "Mini Guzzi" is the term people threw around a lot. Yours is in great shape.

Oh, that's neat. The one the female Rufous is fighting is a male Anna's Hummingbird.

See how the edges of the red are pointy on the one facing th cam? They're so similar to Ruby Throats. I only learned about Anna's after moving to the PNW.

That's a male Rufous Hummingbird. They're smaller and more aggressive than their larger Ruby Throated cousins with which they share the same range/territories.

Here is one sitting outside of my window a few years ago.

I use Fakespot but wasn't aware it was a Mozilla product.

Sounds like 420 lasted a little too long for you already, bud.

Too cool. Saved this for later. Loved hearing the full piece.

Oddly enough, he's been breaking with MAGA more than usual lately.

Hope this is okay to share. I wanted to write something poignant to the crap going on. I recorded this last week, finished mastering it Tuesday. Submitted it to my distribution service for upload to the major streaming services, so it'll be on Spotify and other things in a week or so. I wanted to share it sooner, though.

   I thought animals
   Were always on the prowl
   
   Turns out they were doing other things

 
   Delay, defend, deny.
   I don't kill for fun.
   Took my shot now someone's  doing time.

   I thought animals
   Were always on the prowl
 
   I learned all I know
   When I was a child
   Turns out they were teaching other things
 
   Honey's from the bees
   Grapes fall off the vine
   You keep yours and I will stick to mine
 
   I thought animals
   Were always on the prowl

   Turns out they were doing other things

(for the music nerds: the droning riff and solo are played on a 1957 Rickenbacker 425. The rhythm track was on a 1960 Rickenbacker 450. I used a '74 Fender Musicmaster bass through a '64 Bassman. I put the guitars through a JCM800 and used delay and the amp's drive own drive for distortion. I did the vocals through an SM58 using a Soyuz preamp.)

 

From "Punisher / Batman" by Dixon, Romita, and Janson.

I've been using newsgroups for video downloads for quite a while. The Arr suite is great for this. On the same note, I tend to find a good deal of music with Lidarr and my news server, but not everything. Notably, classic rock and older albums are more obscure. I supplement this with SoulSeek, but that's got its own issues.

What other options might be available that I'm probably overlooking?

Edit: To clarify - I'm trying to find other sources or options for finding the music that's more difficult to get from the sources I mentioned.
