Yeah but what about Limewire, then?

Frida?

Curious, in contrast I remember when they aired A Fish Called Wanda (that was a long time ago), they censored John Cleese’s response to one of Otto’s inarticulate verbal insult streams:
“How very interesting… you’re a true vulgarian, aren’t you?”

…so as to not offend… people from Bulgaria, I guess? They might confuse the V with a B, then write strongly worded letters to the head of network programming?

C’mon… give me my unicorn… I’ve selflessly granted the right-wing consent to make those more vulnerable than me suffer, by heroically sitting on my heroic ass on many election days, I am a pure and very special, delicate flower, I know what’s what and how’s how better than anyone before or after me! i’M sO sPeCiaL, gOdDaMniT, giVE mE wHaT i WaaaaNt!!!

Sort of gives a whole new meaning to social darwinism.

When this song came out, I was a teenager, and our world was divided into two basic factions:

1. Those clinging to 70s-style rock like Queen, The Who, Dire Straits, Supertramp, Pink Floyd, Van Halen, etc.
2. Those who embraced the strange new sounds coming from the UK, like The Cure, Depeche Mode, Siouxsie & The Banshees, etc.

Seldom did both of these worlds meet. Maybe with bands like Blondie and The Cars, music with some of this new sensibility which had made it to mainstream radio.

“Mad World” sounded like some sort of clarion call for those on camp 2, like nothing else like it before. Here we were, taking in all these new sounds, a whole ontology of them, and out pops this thing that still managed to sound completely fresh, to surprise and dazzle us.

This was all amplified by the video, in which Orzabal dances like no one we’d ever seen before. For a minute there, right after The Hurting but before Songs From The Big Chair, the Tears For Fears duo was the hottest thing in the zeitgeist.

Infotainment media is mental illness itself, compulsive and addicted, with no memory retention nor ethical compass, it amplifies what is worst in man, it FEEDS it.

And that’s not even considering enemy propaganda from china and russia infiltrating itself into peoples minds, trying to destabilize democracies.

Fuck your sociopathic industry, what you made it into.

Chris Rock got slapped so hard, he changed his name to Chris Gravel.

Hot areas in your nail

A fertility ceremonial, got it!

…and so, they decided to let it get worse. Much, much worse. Especially for many of the most vulnerable among us.
But muh puriteh, amirite, folks? Amirite?

Intercourse the penguin

I was thinking Thumbman, which I like because it doesn’t make any fucking sense but sounds catchy.

Wait til they find a way to blame Biden for this!

Rolling of the bones. Bones tell everything.

Hong Kong?

Locked in a house with a killer fan that has a mind of its’ own!

Ma’am, we’ve traced and located the source of that breeze, it seems to be coming from…

If I was the historian, I’d like to think I’d take it somewhere in between.
Neither too cold nor too hot, I’d be the Goldilocks Historian on YouTube!

Then I did nothing about it between presidential elections. Nothing. Did not lift a single goddamned finger. Four years later, I demand the party cater to me, Me, ME. An utterly useless deadweight. And smug about it.
