Whatever makes you sad..

[Rusco]

Well, not sad but...just heard the sad news about Joe Cocker.

The cover of Beatles' How a Little Help From My Friends is ringing now on my ears, although I heard it last time something like 20 years ago. RIP, old man.

Woodstock as a starter and still on stage during the last years with old and new songs, solo and not oldie gigs
RIP Joe Cocker

The tragic events in Glasgow today I was actually in Glasgow today At first i wondered what was happening with all the traffic grid lock. I suppose most people didn't know at the time either, heard a few rumours and decided to check my phone, my heart totally sunk when i read the news. My mum used to say that there is always something bad at this time of year . After the events at the Clutha bar this time last year maybe she was right. RIP to all that were taken

Thought about you when I heard that on the news Pol. Only as you are the person I know from Glasgow.
Very very sad. Even more so when you think most people were there as part of their Christmas preparations and final shopping.
Best wishes to all the victims and their families.

This was in my mind too when I saw the news about the accident. Maybe the driver got a heartache. Very sad story.

All the recent police shootings are really bumming me out. What especially hurts is the total lack of concern by the majority towards the victims. This counrty's gonna burn.

Have a nasty feeling that attacks like the one in Paris and all the ones before are going to become a more regular feature across the Western World

[Heno]

that up there^^^^

and the feeling that oil being so cheap all of a sudden is going to bribe the western herd into being amiable towards the corporations agenda. and the reason why people commit atrocities like the ones recently, the actual cause, the fundafuckingmental issue, is ignored, and anyone who ever disrupts or opposes is heralded as the new wave of lunatics

punks not dead

we've only been preoccupied with other things for a while

only music that ever told it as it is and never politicised it

The Western world has always followed corporations agenda. It always will. Same as corporations in any part of the world. Money talks whatever side of life you walk or whatever country you live. It aint the West getting rich off oil, just the rich.

What humans do to one another. Imagine going to work and being gunned down and how your loved ones feel. Plus how the people in Paris are feeling. I can not understand the language and live on a totally different continent but really feel their pain. It makes me tear up thinking about it. Plus a fairly new police officer getting killed trying to protect others. And hostages

..and the fact that innocent Muslims will be scapegoated by the far right.
I imagine their may be hate crimes, Muslim-owned businesses  and homes being destroyed. I remember being about 12 years old for 9/11 and the right blaming all Muslims for the acts of few.

It's sad that humans always need to blame someone to satisfy their emotions.
I and many others complain about their personal tragedies and problems but compared to this most seem like a walk in the park.

Being called worthless

Being called worthless

The only reason that should make you sad is if the person who said it to you is worth your emotional input. If they are not then it's not worth taking in. Forget it darling - let it go x.

Exactly.  I get upset and saddened easily by insults, bad attitude and comments, but ONLY if I have any amount of respect for the person who is saying it. I think this "Space" person has a  personal agenda to push things as far as he can, insulting  individuals and the recent work of the band, intending to offend people on the way -- don't rise to it. I have to say, I am beginning to suspect he maybe a former member who may have been banned, or left under sorry circumstances , back on here now masquerading as a guitar player from N.Y.C. to try and cause as much upset as possible. Best just to ignore it.

January.
Last week.

My car broke down while out with my mentee. I can't afford to have it mended.
My uncle David died of pneumonia.
My older son was in a minor car crash.
 
I have no car and I really need it this week.
I'm going to find it really hard to get to college tomorrow in the time I have.
I'm not going to be able to see my mentee.
I'll have to take nearly a whole day off to go to a hospital appointment this week.

Being called worthless

So, someone you don't know called you 'worthless' and it got to you?

OK, hun... you don't know me and I think you're great.  I'm always interested in what you have to say.  Does that balance it out?

Sorry to be flippant, but really, don't let people like that get to you.
