It’s so funny how some people are getting upset about Now and Then being promoted as a “Beatles song” when George didn’t want to do it and is no longer here to have a say in it… if anything George not wanting to do it but not getting a say is exactly what makes it a fully authentic Beatles song
I just thought about you, man, I… We got this jukebox in here and, um… folks come by and play they songs, that’s the music we get in here, and it’s… This dude, man… Just reminded me of you. So, uh… Hey man, if you ever come to town, man, you come holla at me. I’ll cook you something. Maybe… Maybe play that song for you.
why are you even having children when all you want to do is get rid of them legally when they hit 18
i don’t think you can separate this white north american attitude from the idea of ownership and property that’s built into capitalism. seeing your kids as little moochers that you own. thinking that your kids are “taking advantage” of you or pulling one over on you by “slacking off” is just an extension of the notion that work = morality. so “teaching” your kid that “life is unfair” and “you have to work or you’ll have nothing at all” is the right thing to do. yeah life is unfair, do you have to be too? did your kid ask to be born? did your kid sign a contract with you? its so twisted
the funny thing is that from what i’ve seen the more you treat kids this way the more they will treat YOU this way, so if you make everything in the family transactional they will start to approach your relationship transactionally. then these parents will turn around and whine about how their kids just try to hit them up for money and nothing else, no love no care, sorry who raised them to value money above all else? wasn’t me
I feel like we’re almost in an era of like, reverse queerbaiting. Used to be that you’d be tricked into watching a show because the story implied there’d be gay rep, but now they’re using gay rep to trick you into thinking there’ll be a story.
