Do we get double points if it ends up being a Corona death? Only if it’s a MAGA fuckwit who had previously been calling it a hoax.
So basically karma points. Nicely done there.

I got Madonna. Clearly out of her mind on pain meds. May end up like Prince or Tom Petty.

It’s too bad that Yoko is ailing, as I’ve grown to really respect her over the years. The article got me thinking about both why the SHites hate her so much and how many of them base that hatred on racism and general misogynistic tendencies. If Yoko was an air-headed American blonde with big breasts, the SHites would totally be singing another tune. They’d be falling all over themselves to chortle that they would have left the Beatles too for the same “assets”... But, Yoko is an intelligent Japanese woman who also happens to be a feminist. (Three strikes right there as far as the SHites are concerned.) She has much a better business sense than Lennon ever had, and it’s obvious that she wore the pants in that relationship. I’d be curious to know how many of the Yoko-hating SHites regularly denigrate women in general, and which of them also include “racism” on their list of personal traits...

Rocky’s Owner: Dies after suffering collapsed lungs and when they tried to hook him up to respirator, scrawled, “I don’t rent air” on a scrap piece of paper I feel I should get some sort of acknowledgement for both the demise of Rocky’s Owner (he got banned a couple of hours after this was posted) AND predicting COVID-19.

I’d be curious to know how many of the Yoko-hating SHites regularly denigrate women in general, and which of them also include “racism” on their list of personal traits... There has to be a large crossover of racism and misogyny. Ironically, they hate "rap" too (although that is often a code word for any black culture music) and when they need to say why, they claim it's because it promotes misogyny.
Maybe this is a reach (or revealing of my own issues) but I think Yoko is viewed as this sort of evil, foreign "stepmother" figure who took away papa Lennon from the young beatards. He used to sing and play for them and now he's under her thumb. And they hate seeing their hero emasculated, as if being in a relationship with an intelligent woman is emasculating.
And her art? I guess I was always drawn more to avant garde and left of center stuff even before I knew of her, but as crazy as her stuff can be, I still find it highly accessible. So much of it is playful and interactive.
Let's not forget that beyond not being white, she was Japanese. In her lifetime, the Japanese had been the "enemy." She faced a special kind of racist hate that I think has since petered out, but at the time was still quite powerful.
I'm a big Yoko Ono fan. Saw her perform 5 times, I'm catalog. When she goes, I'm sure it'll hurt.
(When I was in high school, I came up with a loose idea for a biopic of her. It was partially inspired by that I'm Not There film on Dylan, or at least the concept since I never saw that anyway. The opening segment would be her as a child picking Mulberries as it turns to night, and she is chased by ghosts and spirits. It would be wordless and soundtracked.)

I saw Yoko 4 times (Central Park show with Cibo Matto and John Zorn was especially fantastic). Oatsdead scoffs at our weak fandom.

I saw Cibo Matto play the Solid Sound festival 5 years ago, and it was one of the best live performances I have ever seen. They were a fucking force of nature.
