I Feel This Is Worth Reblogging, After Reading A Couple Of Quotes From In Restless Dreams, Like:

I feel this is worth reblogging, after reading a couple of quotes from In Restless Dreams, like:

“We had an uneven partnership because I was writing all of the songs and basically running the sessions because I would say, ‘This is how it goes, and this is the guitar part, and you should be playing that on drums, and the bass should be doing this’,” he says, adding, "Artie would be in the control room with [producer] Roy [Halee], and he’d say, ‘Yeah, that's good, let’s do that,’ but it was an uneven balance of power.” [x]

I... I don't know. For real? The wip of the songs shown in Songs of America, just to mention one source, tell a different story. And if you just listen to the songs together and alone you can hear the difference. Come on.

"We do not refer to Beatles songs as early Paul McCartney songs or early George Harrison songs. They are Beatles songs. (...) Rolling Stones songs are not referred to as Jagger's or Richards’s songs. Ray Davies wrote most of the Kinks’ songs but we do not call them early Ray Davies songs. The songs of Simon & Garfunkel were a collaborative effort, and are distinctly different from Paul Simon’s successful solo career. The works of Simon & Garfunkel have won many awards in the name of Simon & Garfunkel. They are in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in the name of Simon & Garfunkel." "Art Garfunkel was Paul Simon’s missing ingredient. Without him you’ve got smoke but not the explosion that was Simon & Garfunkel."

Thanks fuck somebody said this. Bravo.

Do not allow Art Garfunkel to be written out of history

Because Egyptian iconography is not directly representational, other forms of snakes were also depicted as spitting fire, such as "Big and Fiery", a python type snake who perpetually burns the enemies of the sun god in the ninth hour of the Book of Gates,

Horus himself commands the serpent: "Open your mouth, expose your jaws, that you spit fire on the enemies of my father! That you burn their corpses and cook their souls with the burning breath of your mouth, with the embers in your body."

You can't 😌

how do you sing in soft harmony (🤨) with another man (🤨) who youve known since childhood (🤨) and manage to develop an all consuming feud (🙄) and “not” be gay?

I feel this is never said enough, so let's say it again. 💜

To the witches with chronic illnesses:

Please remember to be kind to yourself today. If you can't get up to do that spell you planned, that's okay. If you can't gather enough mental focus to meditate today, that's okay. If you can't even gather enough strength to get out of bed, that's okay. If you can't get up to light deity candles, that's okay. They won't hate you for it. They will understand.

Allow yourself to rest. Even if you didn't do anything yesterday, allow yourself to rest. Your body will let you know when it's ready to do things. Even if that's only to do small, simple things. Your body will tell you.

Please, allow yourself to rest. You've got this! ❤️

YES! Thank you @in-restless-walks , I had forgotten about that - to think it's from 2012, not that long ago...

I can't believe this is how Paul tries to sell the story now. I'm not one to judge as I don't know personal stuff and shit (nobody knows but them, after all), but his words now are just unfair. And as far as I'm concerned, they sound full of resentement.
