Random Pearl Jam References

[wease]

Now they’re worth nothing

Not random really, but little nugget I hadn't heard before from Rolling Stone a few years ago:

The Seattle explosion happened after we finished the movie. Warner Brothers hadn’t wanted to put the movie out. They didn’t get it; we had to pretty much beg them to release it. And then Nirvana hit, and they said, “Oh, OK, we can call the movie Come As You Are. ” And we said, “No, it’s not called Come As You Are. ” And then they said, “We tested a title that we really love : “One Hot Summer.” And I said “No, it’s not called One Hot Summer, it’s called Singles. ” And then finally I think their kids were telling them, “You have Pearl Jam in a movie, and you’re not putting the movie out?!?”

Later I get a call from the Warner Brothers television department and they say, “You know, we want to make a TV show out of Singles. We really like this idea of these young kids who live together and work in a coffee shop,” And I said, “No. I don’t want to make a TV show out of it.” “Well, we may do it anyway.” “No, you can’t do it anyway.” Months and months go by and this item comes out in The Hollywood Reporter that says Singles is set to become a TV show, from David Crane and Marta Kaufman – the people who ended up doing Friends. I called my lawyer and I said ‘You have to stop [this], they’re doing a TV show of Singles and I said, ‘No.'”

So the pilot of Friends comes out and it’s all these people around a courtyard [with a fountain], and they’re working in a coffee shop; apparently they changed the pilot so that it had fewer similarities. But to this day, my Mom says, “You really screwed up on Friends ! All you had to do was say yes! You would be living in a castle right now!” And I say, “Ha! I don’t need to live in a castle! I’m happy I made the choices I made.” But in my mind at least, you can partially draw a line from the genesis of Friends to our little Seattle film.

Yellow Ledbetter in the Friends series finale has an interesting new meaning now.

do we have a pic of EV at the taylor swift concert? sounds like he went all out for it...fuckin nerd lol

in all seriousness it's cool how to see how much fun he has with his kids, and the taylor swift fandom is kinda interesting. i'm not sure i could name a song of hers, but the community with the bracelets, outfits, etc. is kinda cool. thousands of people hung out outside of her show in philly to hear it.

It sure beats the days when he had to force himself / pretend to like bands such as Fugazi, etc just help build credibility.

i don’t follow Taylor Swift and live strictly in the normie media ecosystem

but don’t ever seem to see her using her platform to do good

promote social justice

challenge abuse of authority

does she do any of those things?

song lyrics don’t count

talking about real world impact

or is she just the empty materialist object (that she looks like)

You need to calm down

[96583UP]

point being: woke media won’t flinch to roast someone / some company for some non-progressive thing

yet people don’t appear to be ready to call out Taylor Swift for the obvious shallow thin blonde white privilege stereotype she projects as the female role model archetype

worthless c*nt

plenty of blonde holes out there for soiling

don’t need to worship this one

slaves

(is what I might say, pending above requested feedback)
