When you're born on Long Island, Billy Joel is omnipresent and inescapable. You either grow to ignore his music, grow to hate it, or develop an acute case of musical Stockholm Syndrome.

That said, I've come around on him as of late. https://www.vulture.com/2018/07/billy-joel-in-conversation.html

quote:

To me, what happened in Charlottesville was like war. When Drumpf said there were good people on both sides — there are no good Nazis. There are no good Ku Klux Klan people. Don’t equivocate that poo poo. I think about my old man: Most of his family was murdered in Auschwitz. He was able to get out but then got drafted and went in the U.S. Army. He risked his life in Europe to defeat Nazism. A lot of men from his generation did the same thing. So when those guys see punks walking around with swastikas, how do they keep from taking a baseball bat and bashing those crypto-Nazis over the head? Those creeps are going to march through the streets of my country? Uh-uh. I was personally offended. That’s why I wore that yellow star.

Well, I understand that Breitbart London is a thing, and our TERFs have been letting in your horrible evangelical conservatives, so there's that.

Anyway, Peter Sweden is dumb as bricks - and so are all the other people who look at criticism of toxic masculinity and say "do they mean all men are bad?"

I mean that was Rockwell's thing, he was over there and realized that "hey these Nazis have the right idea!" *starts neo nazis*. And you then see poo poo like "I am a ww2 vet and if I had known what Obama would do to America, I would have switched sides!".

That Trigger Warning Book vid that Jenny Nicholson did, she talks about how in it the hero talks about how Audie Murphy was this awesome guy who didn't need safe spaces with colouring books (where the hell did that come from anyways? I hear it allllll the time from chuds) and won WW2 on his own, actually was incredibly damaged by his experience including having night terrors that caused him to pull his gun on his wife.

so you're saying that they're more racist towards black people in the UK? considering that the n-word was a popular name for dogs there until a few decades ago and black Britons are three times more likely to be arrested than their white counterparts, i'd believe it

a lot of adults find coloring to be relaxing, destressing, or otherwise therapeutic, so coloring books sometimes pop up as cheap things a person going through some ptsd or anxiety poo poo can do to chill out and hopefully focus on something else

afaik real therapists are torn on it, as the benefits of art therapy are pretty widely known and accepted but there's some criticism that coloring may not be a great form of that because it isn't sufficiently creative or expressive

it's an open conversation to be had between people who understand things like anxiety and trauma at all, being wielded as a club by stupid fascists to infantilize their opponents (even if those opponents have no loving idea what they're talking about)

So there was probably some story about a university that had a place for people having various problems that colouring books were some of the things that were available, but of course the chuds will be all "Lol colouring books are children, waaaaa, real men face their problems head on!"

yea absolutely

I dated somebody with PTSD from a history of physical abuse who kept a couple coloring books around and would work in them occasionally; I have no idea how much it actually helped or whatever but she said it did and given that she's a psych nurse who survives constant 12 hour shifts and being a single mom, I'll take her word for it against a bunch of chuds she's 100x tougher and more qualified than
