The maestro has passed - the man was a open heart with two legs - with an ear that heard the angels. Quite literally. Love and Mercy for you and yours tonight .
RIP Brian.

Brian Wilson, Songwriter and Leader of the Beach Boys, Dies at 82
A hitmaker elevated and burdened by the label of genius, he transcended the breezy surf genre to create complex harmonies and intricate soundscapes in the studio.

Who could have possibly predicted that the world's two most immature, pathetic, and weak men wouldn't be able to maintain an adult relationship?

One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.
This isn’t some rant saying “Germany has learned nothing from its past” - the reality is more subtle than that. Middle-class Germans live and travel with an incredible amount of ease and comfort, and they just got…sleepy. Many of them dismissed the far-right’s rage as just another set of complaints.
Just filed an article about the upcoming German elections (out on Sunday) and what strikes me is how timid much of the institutional pushback against the far-right has been. Some people have distinguished themselves but for the most part it’s just been really complacent - really disappointing.

„Das Dorf lag in tiefem Schnee. Vom Schloßberg war nichts zu sehen...“

Der Film von Jaroslav Rudiš & Tina-Maria Feyrer folgt Kafkas Helden K. in ein Dorf am Ende der Welt – und durch einen der rätselhaftesten Romane der Weltliteratur.
