I do so enjoy Elle&#39;s work but in my part of the woods, the specter of yet less clean water and yet more expensive electric power is breaking a lot of silence. Lucky me to live in an era of such overwhelming greedfuckery that new Dylans pop up all over the place: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1363340108664702
