Dean's mean ranting machine

Hellooooo everyone,

well, I tried the Bumble dating app. Why? Just for the hell of it, to see if anything has been added to the online experience. But quite the contrary, I think this is just another good example of why you should NOT use those apps.

For the people of my own area and beyond, I found a significantly high amount of these typical "fake-happiness" profiles. Self promoting beauty and independence, vaccination as an important criteria, vegan extremism (which I do not talk about here, just mentioning it), an uber fixation on their pets and of course, selling their beauty and sex appeal for those who bring something of "value" to the table... sure.. we get it xD.

I hope I am not getting too preachy about this stuff, but is is really unnerving sometimes.

Cheers

Today I am mainly talking about my mountain bike trip to Waldmünchen. I was gong over 90km in total and am super exhausted right now. But I had a few days of fun. Just exploring and finding more zen time moments and peace.

Aside from some updates and news that cought my attention, I thought it was time ti talk about the new Unihertz Titan Slim. My thoughts are mostly critical. There is no reason to be too excited with this company and their products, although I have made one good catch with the first qwerty phone of their product line, the Titan.

Not much news from my side today. No Album review of good old Gabriel, or a movie I have seen. I am fantasising about the downfall of our society as we know it. If the Elite of this world actually have a plan for the future, I am saying IF, not that there actually is definite evidence... Maybe the sake for gaining power alone is not enough? Maybe there is more? I am just exploring one idea alone that interests me at the end of this episode. 

So... In case you don't want to be bored, cause this topic isn't for you, then you may skip this episode ;)

Back again with more Gabriel goodies. I absolutely love this album. US is the most personal piece of Gabriels life, and artwork. It's openness and laid out vulnerability is breathtaking. That is of course that you can relate to some capacity to the songs on this record.

I might not get everything right about his work, perhaps I have misunderstood some of his works. But in the end, I relate strongly to his lyrics on most of these tracks, because of emotional issues and tragedies, hurtful events and loss down the line... And come on, we all did at some point, right?

Thanks for listening and take care you guys :D

It has been a while, since I touched Gabriels discography, but here I am, running through the powerful and spectacular album, and for sure the most successful one at that. Talking about which tracks I personally loved the most and which B sides could have seen possible, in favour of 'That Voice Again', but that is just my personal taste and idea, not that there is truly anything wrong about the album.

Take care and have fun :D

I was quite surprised when I found an article recently, that described pretty well how a a woman in her late 40's feels about her life. This was a very honest and moving piece of text, that you don't find that often, certainly not on the strong opinionated, spoiled western part of the internet. 

This is not coming from a woman that has a devastating life, nor money problems, or a person that ruined her life and get's the blame. This was just a self reflecting story, with a bitter side note of society as a whole.

Then of course, some ranting again on my behalf, to fill this episode :-).

after some digging on the web, I did find the original article, since it was gone from my browser history.

use a translator if you must. In case I have misread a part or falsely translated a portion of it, I apologise in advance. However, I think I did point out correctly what was worth mentioning.

Take care and have fun!

Well guys and gals, this is it. After so many years of waiting and hoping for something better to hit the market, then the typical boring slabs of ugliness we face everyday when we go out into the world. Communication has become steril and generic, flat and underwhelming in its design by design actually...

Patience from die hard fans such as myself has been for nothing. I understand that we all have other problems currently, but I don't want to talk about that. This just smashes yet another nail in the already rotten coffin of a failed attempt to bring nostalgia back to people.

Because apparently nobody gives a shit but us.

As usual I will be ranting a bit once again about the old BlackBerry history, TCL doing it half right, (D)o(w)nward Mobility's inability to present anything substantial during 2021, and the fact that I honestly thought of buying myself an Iphone... But I won't.

I pull my hat to anybody who will listen all the way through.

As a quick info I wanted to push in here... Some links to other qwerty phones out there, if you are interested:

Unihertz

Back again and going through the fourth album. A solid step forward IMO from the previous works, aside from the pretty damn good third album. We can hear Gabriel coming closer to his true self during production.

However, I did mention some remixed songs that become better than the original, again speaking purely of my own taste and subjective response to his music.

I have the touch - Phenomenon soundtrack 

lay your hands on me - from an italien tv special. Best backing vocals to the song from Gabriel.

Lay your Hands on me - live from Athens. Breathtaking performance!

At the end I just close this part by ranting about nonsense of my old friends life, and that is it.

Will be back for part 4 :-)

Today, I am getting back to the Peter Gabriel discography run. going mostly through albums 2 and 3 (scratch and melt).

I'll be back for more stuff... Take care and good night!
