G’day Hugo Lennon.
Seems like NSN can add rich property developers son that is into furry porn alongside minors, child marriage advocates, mass shooters and people that will defraud $51k from org supporters to their list of “ideal recruits”
Time to realise your vacation in the political scene is over.

Instagram Intros (John Lennon's Kids)
Tumblr media
Hugo Winston Lennon (@hugolennon)
DOB: April 11th 1957 Age: 67 years old Hometown: Liverpool, England Nicknames: Hugh, Hughie S/O: Abigail McKnight Kids: Hannah, Eden, Leanna, and Dominic Best Friend(s): Ethan Dunn, Simon Young, and Vanessa Simpson Aesthetic: Hugo Lennon was the product of a teenage pregnancy. This led to him being a pretty independent child, doing most things on his own. Alice used to take him to school with her, she refused to quit just because she was now a mother. She was determined to at least finish high school before leaving to be a housewife for a 17 year old teddy boy. John was actually a considerably active parent in Hugo's life, other than working for the most of Hughie's childhood. Hugo was also extremely humble compared to the other Beatles Babies, knowing what life was like before the band was ever a twinkle in any person's eyes. He saw his parents take on adult roles that teenagers shouldn't have to, his father was exhausted and his mother was slowly becoming depressed, so Hugo learned to keep to himself and become a gold star child. John and Alice's angel baby.

Alexander Daniel Lennon (@alexxlennon)
DOB: September 23rd 1963 Age: 61 years old Hometown: Kensington, England Nicknames: Al, Alex, Lexy, Xander S/O: Angel Greene Kids: Sadie, Noel, Frankie, and Dawn Best Friend(s): Gabriel Harrison and Peter Hartman Aesthetic: Alex was Alice and John's wild child. He was always all over the place. He especially loved to say no to his father about everything and anything. Nothing could stop this boy from pulling a stunt on his father. John of course would try not to yell at his children, however, he also knew that Alexander was pulling out every trick in the book to get on his father's nerves. While he wasn't constanty sturing up trouble, he loved to cuddle up with his dad whenever he could. Any time that John was sitting down writing or playing his guitar, his boy would run in so very quietly and come up and lay on his lap. It made John's heart burst every damn time. He loved when Alex was calm and snuggling up to him while he was working on his music, which a suprise to most actually. Usually Alice has to chase their children out of his music room while he's working on something, but Alex is the exception. In fact, Allie had came in one day to try to rescue John from their destructive 4 year old, and he just shook his head and told her "It's fine lovey, he's alright here with me." This was the end of Alice's chasing. Alexander was also a ladies man when he was a young boy, non-stop "flirting" with the assistants at the studio, with his Uncles just chuckling at how alike he and his dad were. Of course the assistants thought he was the most adorable baby they've ever seen, and he could not stand it.
Tumblr media
Julia Diana Lennon (@julielenn)
DOB: April 28th 1967 Age: 57 years old Hometown: London, England Nicknames: Jules, Julie S/O: Eric Sharp Kids: Henry, Dallas, and Josephine Best Friend(s): Mariam Flowers, Scott Brady, and Sadie Brady Aesthetic: Julie was essentially the golden child. She was very polite and very funny. She was a walking ball of sunshine to everyone around her. She had a very special bond with her father, and he knew from the minute she was born that he was going to protect her from everything. Julia was an exact replica of her mother and John knew it. He made sure to shield his little girl from the world, he never wanted anyone or anything to hurt her, little did he know that he would be the first to do just that. Julie was only 6 years old Alice and John got divorced and it wrecked her not being able to see her dad every day like she used to. When she did eventually get to see him, Yoko was always there too. She wasn't the biggest fan of Julia, in fact she was proper jealous over the little girl, hating the attention she gets from John. So safe to say, Yoko wasn't the kindest to the young Lennon girl. Alice had confronted John about this situation and it threw them into a huge fight, with John saying that Alice was "jealous of Yoko and I". Allie didn't like that. She couldn't understand how he didn't see their daughter crying and sobbing every time she had to go over to her fathers. John decided to talk to Julia after noticing her ignoring him while at his place. He had tucked her in one night, and sat on her bed and genuinely talked about the situation. She had thought he hated her. He then started the long process of divorcing his wife.
Tumblr media
Joel David Lennon (@joel_david)
DOB: April 28th 1967 Age: 57 years old Hometown: London, England Nicknames: Jolie, Joe, Joey S/O: Donna Carter Kids: Faye and Annie Best Friend(s): Adrienne Howe, Quinten Henderson,and Sara Jenkins Aesthetic: Joel was very shy as a boy, never leaving his mother's side. He was quiet and reserved, something that bothered John, not really knowing how to bond with his 3rd son, with him being so quiet. Joey was a simple kid, never asking for much but his mother's attention. They got along far too well, both of them enjoying comfortable silence, this was not shared with the rest of the family. He loved sitting with his mother and her friends for tea instead of running around outside with the other kids and his uncles. He had glasses like his dad and this was one thing he and his father agreed on … glasses suck. Alice of course encouraged her little boy to wear them, but seeing John without his glasses made him feel like a total dweeb with them. It was always a screaming match between Alice and Joel to get dressed and wear his glasses before school in the morning. This was then forced into John's hands to fix. John made it his mission to get his son to wear his damn glasses. He told Joey that he scored his mother wearing his glasses and that girls actually dig boys with glasses more than he may think, that the boys that laugh at him are just jealous because girls love him. He also made sure to wear his glasses at home until he goes to bed, and of Alice LOVED it, soon enough Emma was born.
Tumblr media
Emma Hope Lennon (@emmyhope)
DOB: August 17th 1970 Age: 54 years old Hometown: Ascot, England Nicknames: Em, Emmy S/O: Benjamin Cortez Kids: Whitney, Chelsea, and Mason Best Friend(s): Bethany Harrison and Erin Starkey Aesthetic: Emma Lennon is a girl's girl, let it be heard. Shes adores her girlfriends like nobody else. She, Beth, and Erin have been friends since the day they were born. They are the embodiment of their mothers when they were young, always hanging out, talking about boys they like, singing and dancing around during sleepovers. Their sleepovers almost always occurred at Erin's house, and the amount of times Ringo would come in and gossip with them was like no other. He was so enamoured with the girl talk, sick of the boys sometimes. Emma was big on fashion and travelling. She visited New York City with her father when she was 8 years old and became obsessed. She did eventually move to the city when she was 19 years old, and became a Model. She and Alice bonded over this love of fashion and were always playing dress up in Allie's closet.
Tumblr media
Gregory Andrew Lennon (@lennon_rory)
DOB: May 14th 1974 Age: 50 years old Hometown: Ascot, England Nicknames: Greg, Rory S/O: Carmen Flowers Kids: Jesse Best Friend(s): William McCartney,Damon Harrison,& Robert Starkey Aesthetic: Rory was a rocker from the minute he could pick up a guitar. He first learned how to play piano when he was only around 4 years old with his mummy. Alice, ever so the musician herself, loved to teach her younglings the piano as soon as they can place their tiny little fingers on the keys. He soon found the likes of Foreigner, Van Halen, Aerosmith, and Led Zeppelin. This was truly the start of it all. Rory was then encouraged to see Uncle Paul about his new found love for rock music and electric guitars. Paul started to come round every weekend or so to help teach the young boy all of his tips and tricks for the music. He saw his best friend's son grow into a true rock n' roll star. When he was 14 years old he started a band and the band consisted of him and a couple buddies. The band outgrew each other and by the time he was 19 years old the new band formed with him as the lead guitarist, Bo Starkey on drums, Liam McCartney on Vocals, and Damon Harrison on bass. This would be the biggest band in England, and the origin of the new genre, Britpop.
Tumblr media
Holly Cecilia Lennon (@ohholly)
DOB: December 9th 1976 Age: 48 years old Hometown: Ascot, England Nicknames: Holls S/O: Bradley Burnes Kids: Casey and Mable Best Friend(s): William McCartney Aesthetic: Holly was the youngest of the Lennon kids, and had the most tragic story. She was born through her parents affair and was prone to not seeing her father very much. He had moved to New York City when she was still a baby and only ever had time to talk to him on the phone sometimes. She raised on the phone and television, relied on it really to see and hear from her father as much as she could. She loved him dearly though. Holly was very used to John showing up on birthdays and christmas', that about it. The year of her 4th birthday, John had every mean to fly back to Ascot to see his daughter on her special day. Calling her the night before to ease her mind and wish an early birthday. He got shot moments before making it to the airport. She had cried and screamed for her father, saying he promised her, while her mother locked herself in her washroom after a short call with Paul. She became very close with her Aunt Betty and Uncle Paul, for her, her mother, and her siblings had all moved in with them for a short while during the hard times. Paul was like a father figure to her and she will forever be grateful for him. He loved her like his own daughters. They are still very close to this day.

Your heroes, your favourite actors, singers, filmmakers, authors, comedians, politicians, activists, teachers, and journalists are rapists. I don't give a shit. You want to side with (mostly) men in power over their victims, then just fucking do that and say they get to do whatever they want to anyone they want. Because you're essentially saying that anyway when you pick apart the behaviour of their victims.

Bob Dylan was, at that moment in time, nothing less than the hippest person on Earth. The zeitgeist streamed through him like electricity. He was my existential hero, the gangling Rimbaud of rock, and I wanted to meet him more than any other living being. I wasn't simply a fan; I worshipped him. Of course, with Dylan you are drawn into his world of encoded messages. Doors are no longer doors; they take on Kafkaesque significance. There are answers behind them. Didn't someone once tell me 'rain' meant memory in Dylan's songs? Dylan was so cryptic that everything seemed to take on at least one other meaning. When he asked for something to stir his coffee with, people did a fast-take. Did he mean spoon? I never saw Dylan's malicious side, nor the lethal wit that has often been ascribed to him. I never thought of him as amusingly cruel the way I thought of John Lennon. Dylan was simply the mercurial, bemused center of the storm, vulnerable and almost waiflike, and amped up on amphetamines. However hip he appeared to be though, Dylan was young and still naive in many ways. He was well read but it was selective. There were certain poets that he was obsessed with. Rimbaud, Villon. Often obscure writers like Lautreamont that he'd got into. But then there were others, like Wallace Stevens, or Victor Hugo, that he'd just never heard of. History for Bob was a series of blinding shafts of light.

100 magnificent quotes
Tumblr media
100 Magnificent quotes 100 magnificent quotes, great aphorisms, ideas, maxims and quotations by various famous authors selected for the World of English by Carl William Brown, the literary avenger. Oh, love isn't there to make us happy. I believe it exists to show us how much we can endure. Hermann Hesse Madness is something rare in individuals - but in groups, parties, peoples, and ages, it is the rule. Friedrich Nietzsche Human behavior flows from three main sources: desire, emotion, and knowledge. Plato The mirror is my best friend because when I cry it never laughs. Charlie Chaplin Aphorisms are the true form of the Universal Philosophy and containe the greatest quantity of thought in the smallest space. Friedrich von Schlegel Educate the children and it won’t be necessary to punish the men. Pythagoras If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them. Isaac Asimov Without goals, the very concept of intelligence is meaningless. Steven Pinker I suppose that in no educational institution can one become an educated person. Mikhail Bulgakov No one's fate is of any interest to you except your own. Mikhail Bulgakov Respond intelligently even to unintelligent treatment. Sun Tzu The reason I talk to myself is because I’m the only one whose answers I accept. George Carlin A fool contributes nothing worth hearing and takes offence at everything. Aristotle By now humanity has become so imbecile that we often tend to mortify intelligence, in order not to offend stupidity. Carl William Brown Show respect to people who don't even deserve it; not as a reflection of their character, but as a reflection of yours. Dave Willis Life is nothing but a competition to be the criminal rather than the victim. Bertrand Russell It is far better to be silent than merely to increase the number of bad books. Voltaire The more real you get, the more unreal the world gets. John Lennon The more intelligence you have, the more you will suffer. Arthur Schopenhauer
Tumblr media
Voltaire quote Discipline is choosing between what you want now and what you want most. Abraham Lincoln The hardest thing to learn in life is which bridge to cross and which to burn. Bertrand Russell Love on one side is not enough, love is a dialogue, not a monologue. Oriana Fallaci Interacting with people that don't like you it's a fundamental process to study human stupidity. Carl William Brown The measure of a man is what he does with power. Plato No matter how you feel, get up, dress up, show up, and never give up. Regina Brett The secret of change is to focus all of your energy, not on fighting the old, but on building the new. Socrates Fashions have done more harm than revolutions. Victor Hugo A man who fears suffering is already suffering from what he fears. Montaigne From each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs. Karl Marx There is nothing in the world so much admired as a man who knows how to bear unhappiness with courage. Seneca The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom. Isaac Asimov A man's manners are a mirror in which he shows his portrait. Goethe I was ashamed of myself when I realized life was a costume party and I attended with my real face. Franz Kafka Without love living is easy; but it's meaningless. Leo Tolstoy Nobody is going to pour truth into your brain. It's something you have to find out for yourself. Noam Chomsky Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds! Bob Marley Knowledge which is acquired under compulsion obtains no hold on the mind. Plato Those who look for the bad in people will surely find it. Lincoln It is not the man who has too little, but ht eman who craves more, that is poor. Seneca
Tumblr media
Nietzsche quote You can’t get much done in life if you only work on days when you feel good. Jerry West The more I learn about people, the more I like my dog. Mark Twain In our society logics is intertwingled with nonsense, good things with evils ones, and most of the time you can't tell which is which, therefore there is nothing more truly realistic than stupidity. Carl William Brown Avoid doing what you would blame others for doing. Thales To destroy war, destroy patriotism. Leo Tolstoy I don’t trust anyone who’s nice to me, but rude to a waiter because they would treat me the same if I were in that position. Muhammad Ali Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist. Pablo Picasso A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials. Seneca Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal. Alber Camus Non serve a niente essere vivi, se bisogna lavorare. André Breton All cruelty spring from weakness. Seneca Be careful what you tolerate, you are teaching people how to treat you. Dr. Phil McGraw Better to die fighting for freedom then be a prisoner all the days of your life. Bob Marley For the Putrid President of Russia, remember Sun Tzu wise words, that is to say, the greatest victory is that which requires no battle. Carl William Brown Get busy with life's purpose, toss aside empty hopes, get active in your own rescue. Marcus Aurelius All media exist to invest our lives with artificial perceptions and arbitrary values. Marshall McLuhan Life is such a great a teacher that when we don't learn a lesson, it will repeat it. Anonymous Fishes live in the sea, as men do on land: the great ones eat up the small one. Pericles A bad system will beat a good person every time. W. Edwards Deming Our life is what our thoughts make it, used to say Marcus Aurelius, but I would add that sometimes it is even worse! Carl William Brown
Tumblr media
Chomsky quote You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist. Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche Simplicity is not a mere idea. To be simple demnds a great deal of intelligence and sensitivity. Jiddu Krishnamurti People are not disturbed by things, but by the view they take of them. Epictetus Disturbance comes only from within, from our own perceptions. Marcus Aurelius All higher humor begins with ceasing to take oneself seriously. Herman Hesse The longer I live, the more convinced I am that this planet is being used by other planets as a madhouse of the universe. George Bernard Shaw The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles but to irrigate deserts. C.S. Lewis Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make man a more clever devil. C.S. Lewis A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer. Bruce Lee We have freedom of thought, now we need thought. Carl Kraus I may not have been sure about what really did interest me, but I was absolutely sure about what didn't. Albert Camus No one is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another. Charles Dickens Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large group. Geroge Carlin The opinion of 10,000 men is of no value if none of them knows anything about the subject. Marcus Aurelius Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall. William Shakespeare Never depend on the admiration of others. There is no strength in it. Personal merit cannot be derived from an external source. Epictetus The old world is dying, the new world is slow to appear and in this chiaroscuro the monsters arise. Antonio Gramsci In most men, intelligence is a field which remains uncultivated for most of life. Eugène Delacroix Man is the only creature who refuses to be what he is. Albert Camus Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. Helen Keller
Tumblr media
Karl Marx Wise men speak when they have something to say, fools speak because they have to say something. Aristotle What moves those of genius, what inspires their work is not new ideas, but their obsession with the idea that what has already been said is still not enough. Eugene Delacroix Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved. Helen Keller An honest man is always a child. Socrates Open your mind before your mouth. Aristophanes Neither Christ nor Buddha nor Socrates wrote a book, for to do so is to exchange life for a logical process. William B. Yeats Why should we feel anger at the world? As if the world would notice. Marcus Aurelius Love is the state in which man sees things most decidedly as they are not. Friedrich Nietzsche Only during hard times do people come to understand how difficult it is to be master of their feelings and thoughts. Anton Chekhov Most people do not really want freedom, because freedom involves responsibility, and most people are frightened of responsibility. Sigmund Freud I no longer know if I wish to drown myself in love, wodka or the sea. Franz Kafka The first thing that reading teaches us is how to be alone. Jonathan Franzen There is no greatness where simplicity, goodness and truth are absent. Leo Tolstoy Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways. Sigmund Freud The love for all living creatures is the most noble attribute of man. Charles Darwin Experience is the hardest kind of teacher. It gives you the test first and the lesson afterward. Oscar Wilde The most common form of despair is not being who you are. Soren Kierkegaard Each of us assumes everyone else knows what he is doing. They all assume we know what we are doing. We don’t. Philip K Dick Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late. Benjamin Franklin Nothing shows a man's character more than what he laughs at. Goethe
Tumblr media
100 magnificent quotes to read He who knows all the answers has not been asked all the questions. Confucius Gentleness is stronger than severity, water is stronger than rock, love is stronger than force. Herman Hesse Better to die fighting for freedom then be a prisoner all the days of your life. Bob Marley Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known. I am inclined to say that it is the only real mode of individualism that the world has known. Oscar Wilde Everyday is like a fashion show and the whole world is the runway. Elegance is when the inside is as beautiful as the outside. Coco Chanel There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness. Friedrich Nietzsche Hating people is like burning down your own house to get rid of a rat. Harry Emerson Fosdick If you wish another to keep your secret, first keep it to yourself. Seneca the Younger When you have faults, do not fear to abandon them. Confucius It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone... but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Kahlil Gibran He who laughs at himself never runs out of things to laugh at. Epictetus L'amore è l'arte che non si impara mai e che si sa sempre. Benito Pérez Galdós The more we value things outside our control, the less control we have. Marcus Aurelius The more I think about it, the more I realize there is nothing more artistic than to love others. Vincent Van Gogh The greatest victory is that which requires no battle. Sun Tzu Facts or opinions which are to pass through the hands of so many, to be misconceived by folly in one, and ignorance in another, can hardly have much truth left. Jane Austen Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Epicurus People may spend their whole lives climbing the ladder of success only to find, once they reach the top, that the ladder is leaning against the wrong wall. Thomas Merton For we are all divorced from life, we are all cripples, every one of us, more or less. We are so divorced from it that we feel at once a sort of loathing for real life, and so cannot bear to be reminded of it.

Remember that cats respond best to names with one or two syllables, so you might want to use a shortened version of longer names in everyday life. For example, "Perseus" could become "Percy" for daily use.
Some names have interesting origins or meanings that can add depth to your choice. "Jasper," for instance, is not only a gemstone but also the name of one of the Three Wise Men in Christian tradition. "Finn" has roots in Irish mythology, where Finn MacCool was a legendary hero.
Ultimately, the best name for your cat is one that you enjoy saying and that seems to fit your feline friend's unique personality. Happy naming!

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." (Ferris Bueller)
Benedict Wells: "HardLand"
(Diogenes, 2021 / gelesen April 2023)
Euphancholisch
Diese Wortkreation von Kirstie Andretti aus dem Roman "HardLand" bezeichnet exakt die Stimmung des Buches: eine Mischung aus 'euphorisch' und 'melancholisch'.
Die Hauptfigur ist Sam Turner, ein schüchterner, ängstlicher Teenager aus Grady, Missouri. In HardLand erzählt er linear ein Jahr in seinem Leben - beginnend kurz vor seinem 16. Geburtstag und endend kurz vor seinem 17. Geburtstag. Soweit ein typischer Coming-of-Age-Roman.
Der Beginn zeigt, dass der Protagonist dieses Jahr in einer Rückblende beschreibt:
"In diesem Sommer verliebte ich mich, und meine Mutter starb.
Das alles ist jetzt schon mehr als ein Jahr her, aber für mich wird es immer 'dieser' Sommer bleiben. [...] Es war der Anfang der Sommerferien, und von dem Berg an Langeweile, der vor mir aufragte, hatte ich noch nicht mal die Spitze abgetragen."
Um der Langeweile und einem drohenden Aufenthalt bei seinen brutalen Cousins aus Kansas zu entgehen, nimmt Sam einen Ferienjob im örtlichen Kino an. Dort lernt er Brandon Jameson, genannt Hightower, Cameron Leithauser und die Tochter des Kinobesitzers, Kirstie Andretti, kennen.
Mehr muss über den Inhalt gar nicht verraten werden - der erste Satz sagt schon genug, den Rest gilt es selbst zu entdecken.
Interessant ist der Aufbau des Romans. Er ist in 5 Teile gegliedert: Die Wellen - Der Ball in der Luft - Die Prüfung - Der Streich - Die Pointe,
die man als fünf Akte eines klassischen Dramas sehen könnte. Diese These wird auch im Roman selbst unterstützt, da sich die Handlung lose an einem fiktiven Gedichtband orientiert, der ebenso aufgebaut ist: "Hard Land" von William J. Morris.
Diese 5 Teile (oder Akte) sind wiederum in 49 Kapitel (oder Szenen) unterteilt, was den 49 Geheimnissen von Grady entspricht, die wohl jeder Einwohner von Grady selbst für sich entdecken muss.
Mit Anspielungen auf Filme, Musik - es gibt sogar eine Spotify-Playlist zum Buch - und die wohlbekannten Frisuren nimmt Wells die Leser:innen mit auf eine Reise in die 1980er Jahre.
Der Roman ist in Alltagssprache gehalten, leicht zu lesen, aber reich an fantasievollen Beschreibungen und Metaphern:
"Wenn die First Base Küssen war und der Home Run Sex, dann sass ich noch in der Umkleidekabine und band meine Schuhe."
oder
"Der Tod sass die ganze Zeit bei uns am Küchentisch, trank seinen Kaffee, blickte stumm auf die Uhr."
Die Leser:innen lachen, lieben und leiden mit dem Protagonisten Sam mit auf seinem Weg über den Lake Virgin von der Kindheit ins Erwachsenwerden.
Hätte es dieses Buch Ende der 1980er Jahre bereits gegeben ...
...hätte ich es sicher so geliebt wie John-Lennon-Songs
... hätte ich Hugo Loetschers "Saison" vielleicht nicht gelesen
... hätte ich noch ein Mixtape mehr gemacht
Weil dieses Buch Anfang 2020er Jahre erschienen ist ...
... liebe ich es wie Fredrik Backmans "Björnstad" - Trilogie
... erinnere ich mich daran, Loetschers "Saison" gelesen zu haben
... höre ich die Soundtrack-Playlist auf Spotify
