Next time someone mocks you for your interest in Synchromysticism, remind them the machines that control the entire world economy run on codes, symbolic language and pattern recognition.

Wanna know the REAL difference between Bruce Springsteen and Bob Seger?
In 1985, Peter Bogdanovich wanted to use Springsteen songs for Mask, since Rocky Dennis, the kid the film is based on, was a big Springsteen fan. He was turned down, because Springsteen was at the height of his popularity and wanted a huge royalty on top of the usage fee. Rocky's mother was heartbroken and said so.
Bob Seger stepped in and said they could use his songs without royalties, because he felt so strongly about the film. They did so.
After a furor in the press, Springsteen later folded and blamed it all on his record company. Which as we know now is totally on-brand for him.

There's no argument whatsoever here: both of these outcomes are entirely and completely the fault of open borders migration.

Here's another giant hole in the apologist argument: how could journeyman rocker Bob Seger order his management to waive the extra royalties for the drops on Mask but superstar Bruce Springsteen, who'd renegotiated his contract in 1977, somehow could not? That make sense to you?

The apologist rationalizations here just don't wash with me at all. This is '84/'85, when Springsteen is the biggest draw in the world. All he had to do was say to Jon Landau, "Get on the phone with Yetnikoff and tell him I'd consider it a personal favor if he did whatever it takes to let Bogdanovich use my songs for his picture." It's not like this was some Chevy Chase vehicle or something.

Two big Megan Fox-sized thumbs up for the new Beck.
Deep into that Sea Change/Morning Phase ethereal country/folk vibe. Lush, sweeping, and catchy as a damn cold.

I was a big Bruce fan up until he started going around with that fake cowboy accent around the TOL era. That LARP lasted for 20 years, at least. Painful to hear Rosalita or Thunder Road sung like a bad Garth Brooks impersonation.

I just realized that this episode really put a damper on my Springsteen fandom - it was when I first realized things weren't adding up with that guy. I think I'd read about it in Spin. Springsteen was swimming in money- he didn't need to try to bleed them.

Digging the fact that more and more people now realize that Sea Change is THE essential Beck album.

I'm more convinced than ever before that Soros ordered the Kirk hit. Especially after the inevitable (and hilarious) Candace outing.
I'd say "change my mind" but it's far too late for such futility.
Cui bono remains undefeated.

After all you online sleuths are done with CandaceGate, look into this situation.
I'm not saying Adbul el-Sayed is a female-to-male transgender, I'm just saying he projects the exact same energy that nearly all female-to-male transgenders do, like you see on the right.
Calling yourself a doctor when you're not actually a doctor is also 1000% female behavior.
