So, I just recently realized something.
And I know I am late to this party.
I was late to this party by the time I was born.
I realized last week that I really really like Led Zepplin.
Yes, this realization stems directly from seeing Thor: Ragnarok for the second time for a friend’s birthday gathering and becoming midly obsessed with Immigrant Song.
My point…
…other than admitting that I missed the boat by decades…
…my point is, after listening to the lyrics of the song, other than that they make my Heathen happy…
…yes, I’m going to get political for a moment…
Recently, it had been shared that certain folks wish that only certain folks from certain countries would emigrate from their country to ours.
Those folks, first of all, would never leave their “one of the best countries in the world” homelands to come here. In their homelands, they have free medical care, maternal and paternal leave with an actual focus on family values, and a better education system than this country.
They didn’t always love their lands, however, and they at many points in history left the brutality of their homes. In search for more fertile farmland. In search for a more temperate climate. In search of gold and treasure. After all, Vikings are the original ganstas.
On we sweep with threshing oar
Our only goal will be the western shore
And truth be told…they weren’t always taken in by happy hosts.
