I have been busy with my real life lately and haven't had any time to play Second Life, but I do have a Second Life blog and have been real life thinking a lot while driving around in real life, and have a few things to get off my chest.
First. Yoko Ono doesn't deserve this.
The other day a friend of mine used her name as a metaphor for what seemed to be a bad situation approaching. Then, when I called him on it, he swerved around it by asking if I'd seen the clip of John and Yoko singing with Chuck Berry.
I gathered from his description it was gonna be a "let's make fun of Yoko" clip and refused to watch it. Later, realizing that my resistance to see his video is the same kind of willful ignorance that drives me nuts about the current political climate, I watched the video he was talking about- first I posted a link to it but it bothered me that someone might make money from it so here's a link to the full performance instead- you can see a screenshot above of the person who went to the trouble of isolating it and everything to drag Yoko Ono.
Here's the full performance. I will say she take's Chuck by surprise during Memphis, Tennessee.
Funny. Haha. Not.
I am soo sick of racist white people who are threatened by change.
The recent Dr. Seuss "controversy" was ridiculous.
The current trend of blaming Meghan Markle for the hot mess that the Royal Family has been ever since Prince Charles wanted to be Camilla's tampon (remember that one?) is the new Yoko Ono, and thank you to the pigs who actually went to the trouble of making these memes so that we can see that y'all are still the same white, male chauvinist pigs you were in April, 1970 when Paul broke up the Beatles.
FWIW- If you really believe Meghan Markle or Yoko Ono are bad people, do some research. Yoko was not responsible for the break-up of the Beatles. "The heir and the spare" was a common term for William and Harry for years, and it was only a matter of time before "the spare" retired from public duties as "the spare" has done for centuries.
Oh. Back to Yoko. Did you know she worked with John Cage before she met John Lennon? Cage is considered by many to be one of the most important composers of the 20th Century. The more you know!
