Tracing the development
Over the years of how
Bowie presented
Major Tom
He changes from
a cartoon like character in a mod ballad
to a Soviet styled hero
to a nightmarish addict
to a mummified corpse in a spacesuit

Very sad what's happening in Kazakhstan. Hopefully those kid soldiers take the guns off their people and turn them on their ineffective leadership.
Avatar ⚡ 5:33am
Heidee:

@fred, always so nice of you to ask after me.
Still remote (due to health), and I really wouldn't want it another way. Although sometimes cursing the stupidity of people thinking they can fuss with my job. Since digital teaching is transparent by nature, it seems to mistakenly invite for unqualified co-teaching by everyone and anyone.
😬😬
How are things with you?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:34am
Brian D:

Indeed Hyper. FYI: The mural, depicted in the photo at the top of the playlist, is by Brazilian artist Eduardo Kobra. Keep forgetting to mention that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:34am

Kazakhstan's leadership is quite effective, but only to remain in power. I hope the people there get a better deal, but I'm not holding my breath. (I love their music)

@Heidee: Work guidelines remain a joke: I'm supposed to come once or twice a week only, but I have 2 iMacs, 2 bulky laptops and 2 iPads to haul to/from work (and I don't have a car, so through subway/bus). I just go to work, it's all or nothing for me

@fred, That's when the idealism of work becomes dry reality. Better not lose your heart where it is not wanted... 😈
So, where does your 'good' energy gather?
  5:52am
LiXiviated Life:

When I think about Bowie
I think of the courage and conviction it took
to be the artist he was
I think of my favorite version of
Rebel Rebel
That captures the energy and shows his influence
