I'd respond to that with a gif from the video of NYC flooding, but that's a lot of work, and I'm lazy.

I liked the Greta appearance, but I'll be honest I didn't realise it was Greta until reading it on RM

it confirms to me that Greta's warnings were the "feminine" portent in DOTC, something I was going to try to unpack in a lyrics walkthrough but struggled to get around to it

Greta knows about this?

I think she is going to sue the band.

Love the song. Hate the video. The tarot card thing feels very Backspacer not Gigaton.

Greta Thunberg? Really?

The video made me cry. I don't particular care for the choppiness of it though.

No I can guarantee that I can not ever see myself thinking, “I should check out that Retrograde video again.”

Between this and the SBWM video, we’re orbiting a real “Take On Me” visual vibe here.

The video is OK but the PHATJ photo filter effect is annoying

I actually loved how during the jam, the cuts happened with each accent of the drums / cymbals

Greta is a "ghost" all over this album, and on DOTC, I'm not surprised to see her in this, or the Tarot cards; both are totally in line with the themes

The Greta inclusion is ... so Pearl Jam of them.
