          @FlohEinstein @cstross @aadeacon yeah, the lead singer said some really gross stuff a few years back. I was supremely disappointed.

              @cstross friends group uniformly disappointed in him. Perhaps he’ll urge a boycott and lead it himself? Wish I could straightforwardly root for him.
