The difference between social change in the '60s and what passes for it in this time is best illustrated by the artists at work then and now. We had Joni Mitchel. They have Taylor Swift. We had Bob Dylan. They have Kanye West. We had Janis Joplin. They have (gasp) Miley Cyrus. These days they are all tattoo graffiti billboards. That is as close to artistry as they come, making themselves into a pastiche of doodling, done by what seems to be a six-year-old hand. I could look for other disturbing parallels but I am unfamiliar with nearly all of the contemporary artists)?) I've heard snatches here and there when I enter some shopping arena, However, I am out the door ASAP so that all I hear is a segment of mindlessness. Many shopping zones have decided to avoid rap over the sound system and instead play other artists from times before this current depravity, like the 50s, 60s, and 70s.

No! I am not old and therefore intolerant of new genius. I KNOW genius when I hear it. I have not heard anything close to genius in a Long Time. I have to look hard to even find anything Normal. Occasionally, someone will release something that exposes the bullshit of the contemporary fascist mind. It gets quickly snuffed at Youtube.

Many strange conditions are appearing. What is the story with the words run and ran? Is it run over or ran over? I thought it was about tense. “If your child gets ran over.” What's wrong with run over? That even sounds better. Everywhere I go now, where people had to go to school to learn to write, I am seeing these new word tortures.
