Spot on. I expect any customer service worker, or anyone who deals with the public day-to-day, to have a good amount of pent up rage.

Love how the gun got caught on his hoodie. Clearly didn't practice, giving her more time to process what was happening.

*Whole album is great. I first heard Waterworld but The Masters of the Universe may appeal to modern ears more.

And for a fleeting 32 years so did Kieth Moon. Both considered technically more advanced than Ringo but I would put all three amongst my top drummers in rock history.

Maybe from others who interpreted it as targeted at the band's first generation fans, not at the members themselves.

Edit: I don't agree with the original sentiment, the Beatles influence on popular (western) music cannot be disputed whether one personally enjoys their output or not.

I thought they were referring to the fans, not the members.

But that doesn't hold as the Beatles legacy has continued to reverberate through generations (mainly due to artistic output, but supplemented by well managed releases every decade or so)

I don't think they meant "use" with any negative connotation. I'm curious. Had they said "utilized" instead would that have read better to you?

I mean, none of The Beatles knew theory. Obviously they picked up a lot of it but they lacked the vocabulary. They turned to George Martin, producer of all but one of their albums, for that.

Right? So charming.

Streaming models, licensing restrictions, platform shutdowns, and cyberattacks are reshaping, manipulating, and at times, erasing our records—making it more difficult than ever to preserve important cultural works like these.

In response to this, the Internet Archive released a new book, Vanishing Culture: A Report on Our Fragile Cultural Record.

Reminder that The Internet Archive needs support if you're in a position to help. Not affiliated just a long-time fan.


I'm sure there's a better community for this but couldn't land on one. Any suggestions?
