Another of my favorites when I’m depressed:

People ain’t no good.

I can’t find the Mad World vid with the clown.

Hay lady, shut the fuck up and play the dam song.
And you are laghing! I can’t judge it if you keep inserting your idiotic opinion every 5 seconds.
I sometimes sing along with ‘Mad World’ when I’m depressed. So I hate this version.
I might have liked it if I took it as a mad version. But what’s-her-name spun it as silly. She ruined a great song.…[Read more]

Now, I feel I owe you a little more on the song, digging a little deeper.

When I was doing photography of women I invented some categories of beauty and, bizarrely, I can illustrate the three most common ones using the three sisters comprising The Warning. These are the three main types of beauty, then: there is hot, which is Daniela/Dany; cute,…[Read more]

While currently my favorite songs are “23” and “Breathe” by The Warning’s drummer, Pau.

However, long term. the one I keep coming back to is “Here With Me” by Dido.

I confirmed its place in my heart when I played it just now and found myself weeping.

The combination of a great song, a singer with a very special voice, and a genuine cleancut…[Read more]

Natural Selection is a bitch for all species and we’re no exception, but fortunately, it usually works real slow, slow enough for us to come up with solutions.

Not exactly. It’s the failure of natural selection that leads to extinction. Adaptation occurs too slow and can’t keep up with a rapidly changing environment. I read scientists think that 2…[Read more]

Robert,

Meanwhile, if you have some excess Carbon Dioxide, send it along to SodaStream. Mind you, don’t blow into a balloon and send it. 😁 But if you have ways to reclaim CO2, I’m sure…[Read more]

You may wanna recalibrate your miniscule timescale and then think about the success rate (<1%) of all species that at some time thrived. And they did not have the capability (or as I see it the short-term evolutionary mistake) to globally pollute their own planet.

Robert,

Sorry, I just cannot speak with all of the authority you claim.

You see, as of yesterday, I died because it was Friday the 13th, of all the gruesome methods Jason Voorhees could dream up!

Four years back, I died when the FCC repealed “Net Neutrality” and Internet access became charged by the hour and by the e-mail and TV streaming…[Read more]
