Paul McCartney

An asshole who was involved in making some of the best music of his times, but still doesn't know he's an asshole.

John Lennon got most of the shit about being arrogant, while sly Paul McCartney some people must think was too cool to be an asshole, or he pretends he doesn't hear people when they say he's an asshole. It doesn't make the Beatles anything less than the Beatles (a one of a kind band), but its who he was as a person in life.

Astrology

A way to get peole to believe that a lot more things revolve around Jupiter than they actually do in real life.

Even if astrology was based on the Sun, hopefully people would question it rather than believe it. But anything based on the orbit of Jupiter is plain suspect.

Poser

Someone who compromises who they are on a daily basis to make money and thinks that if you dont do the same thing, it's coming from your ego.

Compromise is what did that to the poser's head.

Error

Apologies are pointless and mean nothing as long as you never acknowledge the error in your ways. Being apologetic won't bring George Floyd back, but an officer acknowledging that he/she isn't perfect or always right, even if he/she is a decent guy/ girl, and more people would get to live all the years they were meant to live, the same full life as the one that the officers will get to live.

Everybody has had some kind of error in their ways somewhere. If they were a computer, they'd have a lower rate of error, but they're not a computer, they are human and they fuck up a lot more than a computer.

Race relations

Race relations seemed better and less divided a few years ago, back when the Confederate statues were still around. At least back then, even if they argued at times, they were still talking points. Now that the statues aren't there people are expected to forget history, change, and compromise. That won't make anything better. Before the statues were removed people said they were divisive, but race relations seemed to do well. Now that they've been removed, people really are more divided.

Race relations don't improve if people don't get to discuss history from all angles, even the unpopular (unprofitable) ones. As long as one group wants another group to change, forget, or compromise, things aren't going to get better, they're going to keep getting worse.

Sideless

Someone who claims to be a tomboy one minute, then a girly girl the next, then a nerd, then a pop culture enthusiast, then a badass or a rebellious one, then a scientist or medical expert , then a real estate agent, then a food lover, depending on which group of people they want to play that day.

The sideless girl seemed fun at first to the people who didnt already know her well, it wasnt going to be until years later when their group ended up played against another opposing group that they knew that it was everyone else who had a side but the sideless girl. The sideless girl thought they were all mentally in their single digit years still, and that people who had a side were fools.
