    As a firefighter, this is extra cool for me, haha. 

    I think this album is gonna be pretty great. 
    Thank you for all you do!  
    Truthfully, it’s a lot of ping-pong, working out, and snacking, but I appreciate your gratitude.

    So, what is your point? Or do you not have one? 
    I find it annoying yet slightly entertaining how much people whine about every move PJ makes. Even when it raises money for charity. 
    Well, what about the people who would applaud Pearl Jam even if they played Trumps inauguration in 2021 as long as Trump throws out a tweet about giving a few bucks to "that vitiligo foundation of those great guys in nirvana" ?

    Btw what’s the charitable contribution from Verizon? Just $1 for every retweet? That’s gonna be less than $5000, prob not even a drop in the bucket compared to what they saved by throttling first responders during states of emergency and trying to gouge them to upgrade their plans.

    YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND

    THE INDUSTRY HAS CHANGED

    PEARL JAM ABSOLUTELY HAS TO DO THIS

    THIS NOTE'S FOR YOU: THEY ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO DO THIS TO SURVIVE

    You're comparing helping charity to playing for Trump?

    Do they still have the same people in charge? What if they're trying to make things better?

    Why did you miss me saying Trump would throw in money for their charity?

    And they are not helping charity, they are helping spread Verizons private 5G initiative in their SoMe channels. That is the main thing.

    Stop trying to shield it behind the money verizon pays for it, using PJs charity.

    Or is verizons 5g initiative a charity thing? Have I missed that? Looks to me like a regular ad plucking at heart strings.

    A car company would’ve been a little more palatable than a telecom giant like Verizon. That’s like evil incarnate. A little birdie told me they’re trying to turn over a new leaf and make things better now though.

    Most likely PJ used Verizon to promote their charity. And Trump would steal the money from the charity

    Where does it say in Pearl Jam's tweet only use Verizon? Or even in the commercial
