“That’s a nice song,’ said young Sam, and Vimes remembered that he was hearing it for the first time.
“It’s an old soldiers’ song,“ he said.
“Really, sarge? But it’s about angels.”
Yes, thought Vimes, and it’s amazing what bits those angels cause to rise up as the song progresses. It’s a real soldiers’ song: sentimental, with dirty bits.“As I recall, they used to sing it after battles,“ he said. “I’ve seen old men cry when they sing it,” he added.
“Why? It sounds cheerful.“
They were remembering who they were not singing it with, thought Vimes. You’ll learn. I know you will.― Terry Pratchett, Night Watch
How do they rise?

Radio Free Monday
Good morning everyone, and welcome to Radio Free Monday!
Ways to Give:
spikeygorgeous is fundraising to offset medical costs for her chronically ill child; insurance is not covering all of the medication and mobility aids he needs, and she needs help paying off debt already incurred from these costs along with aids she has not been able to get yet. You can read more and support the fundraiser here.
Odin is an independent artist, educator, and author who is currently preparing for gender affirming top surgery; because they work independently for their income and won’t be able to work for a month minimum and more likely two, after surgery, they are raising funds to help offset living costs. You can read more and support the fundraiser here.
we_are_spc is trying to get out from under their sister-in-law’s financial control, and are struggling with funding as well as with a bank that’s being difficult; they need to raise $230-$250 to cover last minute expenses until their next payday this coming Friday. You can give via paypal here or send through paypal to celticphoenyx@gmail.com.

News to Know:
sergeantgoggles is selling fandom-related wax melts! They currently have Star Wars: The Bad Batch and Legend Of Zelda melts in the shop, and will have Genshin Impact later this month. You can check them out and purchase here at Etsy.
Recurring Needs:
rilee16 is raising funds to cover a portion of bills that their roommate is unable to cover after giving them no notice he would not have the funds; one of rilee16’s jobs also just cut their hours in half.
