[Monty Pigeon]

Jazz legend is still going strong at 93. I think he speaks for all of us:

If only it was that simple.

maybe if people just stopped being dicks. Never gonna happen, speaking from personal experience of course being a dick

Love at bit Sonny but that's too simplistic and Lennonesque.

I beg to differ. Yes, it's unrealistic. But it carries moral weight.

Fabulous sax player but i don't look to armed robbers for my moral guidance.

It's a lovely idea tho'

He's clearly not a fan of Scandi-noir detective TV.

You can't disagree with that message. Sadly we live in a shitty world where human life means nothing to the likes of Putin and Hamas.

I’m with the side that’s not killing people

Happy New Year

And there's no end in sight to any of it.

Sadly true.

And Zelensky and Netanyahu, and their US/UK enablers


This year will be harder than last year. It will, however, be easier than next year.

I wish he did, I really do, but I'm not convinced he even speaks for half of us. The killing of, as long as its of the enemy, those who are perceived to be different, who disagree with us, live differently, Russians, Chinese, Muslims, Communists etc, seems to be acceptable and accepted in these sad times. Maybe it will take another World War to re-educate people on the impact, atrocities and devastations that war has on societies. They need not worry though, their rulers and leaders are busy working on this.

All you need is love.

Love is all you need.

I've never killed anyone and don't plan to. I figured that out at 7 years old or so.

 

[zwartekat]

You can't disagree with the sentiment but it does sound a bit like something a 6-year-old would come up with.

I’m not sure why people speak as tho it’s only within the current time period where humans have been killing humans for one reason or another. It’s been going on as long as humans have been in existence and, sadly, we haven’t evolved past it yet. Humans are both amazing and utterly shite.

Was expecting something more edgy but my brain did read the title as Henry Rollins.
