the world is directing so much intolerable cruelty and unfairness towards the palestinian people to placate the israeli ego and soothe colonial anxieties, as though they haven't already been trying to rewrite history for 75 years. what makes them think it will work this time? don't they understand that history written in blood is even harder to erase than history written in press releases? do they plan to move on from 13,000 murdered children to a stronger and more secure israel? or are they too stupid to see they're ushering in a fragile and unstable world order of right-wing demagogues with overpowered militaries? that'll work out.
paul simon was lying when he said he did not serve…[insert cunty picture of paul simon or whatever here]
"We mistakenly believed we were executing unarmed Palestinians instead of real people"

even if art garfunkel jr is lying idgaf… RPF warrior!
Simon & Garfunkel + matching (or almost matching) outfits
Yes, scarves count as matching outfits, as do black turtlenecks- I don’t make the rules.
Can you imagine us years from today
Sharing a park bench quietly
How terribly strange to be seventy
Old friends
Memory brushes the same years
Silently sharing the same fears
_________________________
Stranger to stranger
If we met for the first time, this time
Could you imagine us
Falling in love again?
Still believing that love endures
All the carnage and useless detours
Oh I love you, I love you, I love you…
Old Friends - 1968
Stranger to Stranger - 2016
Thanks for sharing this @frederic-simon-and-ira-garfunkel. One of my favourite interviews because it’s so interesting to see Art’s perspective of things post breakup. This has to be one of my favourite parts - I few like it explains a lot about why Art’s attitude in interviews seems so odd sometimes.
An early demo of Simon and Garfunkel’s “The Only Living Boy in New York” (excerpted from the 1975 BBC series on the duo). I wish this line had made it into the final version!
Went for an eye test today and they found a small image of American singer-songwriter Paul Simon burned permanently into my retinas in the same way images get permanently burned into old TV's when you have the one thing on screen for too long.
