the person, who took the picture of this cake that I made and put it on ‘weheartit.com’ and said they made it, makes me angry :(
I track the “pink floyd” tag and the other picture of it - the one with a slice missing so you can see the inside of the cake - shows up a few times a week without credit. :/ It’s a shame because you did such an amazing job and you are entitled to the credit! ♥
non c’è sveglia migliore di questo inizio, di questi orologi, di queste campanelle.
buongiorno, amici.

Pink Floyd, The Fletcher memorial home.
Il messaggio di questa canzone dell ‘83 è che i grandi della Terra si costruiscano una casa di riposo e se ne vadano lì a fottersi. Thatcher, Reagan, Breznev… Il 1982 è l’annus horribilis della Guerra delle Malvinas (Falkland? fanculo) scatenata dal governo militare argentino (quello dei desaparecidos) nel tentativo di rinsaldare l’unità nazionale con una vittoria.
Le cose andarono diversamente. I generali, chiaramente anticomunisti, speravano in un intervento a loro sostegno da parte degli Stati Uniti, che invece non tradirono lo storico alleato inglese. L’anno successivo (l’83, appunto) il partito conservatore inglese stravinceva le elezioni politiche mentre il governo militare argentino si scioglieva indicendo elezioni democratiche.
Ancora oggi reduci (piqueteros) protestano a Plaza de Mayo perché vengano loro riconosciute le pensioni di guerra.
Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
and build them a home a little place of their own
the Fletcher memorial
home for incurable tyrants and kings
and they can appear to themselves every day
on closed circuit t.v.
to make sure they’re still real
it’s the only connection they feel
“ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Reagan and Haig
mr. Begin and friend mrs. Thatcher and Paisley
mr. Brezhnev and party
the ghost of Mccarthy
the memories of Nixon
and now adding colour a group of anonymous latin
american meat packing glitterati”
did they expect us to treat them with any respect
they can polish their medals and sharpen their
smiles, and amuse themselves playing games for a while
boom boom, bang bang, lie down you’re dead
safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye
with their favourite toys
they’ll be good girls and boys
in the fletcher memorial home for colonial
wasters of life and limb
is everyone in?
are you having a nice time?
now the final solution can be applied

(…)
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too
I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon
The lunatic is in my head
