the thing is ms swift could release a song w the lyrics "i love kissing my straight boyfriend as a straight woman and having straight sex to make straight babies" and you'd have essays about how she's a dyke. sir paul mccartney, meanwhile, could write a song w the lyrics "I'm in love with my dead best friend who's a man who died and I loved to kiss him and jerk him off I wish I could be out in public with him but he's dead" and you'd have reviewers going "another beautiful song that shows mccartneys deep platonic love for lennon." in this essay I will-
two such admirable individuals, so different and special in equal measure, gifted and loved children🤍
"He doesn't owe me anything. I'll make life as easy for him as I can but it's no use me thinking what I would do if I was him, because I'm not him and he isn't little me."
— John Lennon about Julian Lennon.
"It's a combination of John and Yoko, which produced something completely and entirely separate from us. It is not a little John Lennon or a little Yoko Ono – It's a Sean. It's itself, He is himself, you know."
— John Lennon about Sean Ono Lennon.

sorry.
In my mind, the beatles were all just lesbians. Looking at them and putting the title of "gay" on them doesn't feel right. "Queer" doesn't feel right either. They all just look like the group of lesbians that I saw sitting in a conversation couch smoking a hookah when I was walking down the streets in Copenhagen, so lesbian works.
we know that, Paulie
honest to god I keep forgetting that John Lennon is dead I think about his annoying ass so often that it's like he's still with us
"Fans who believe in mclennon are so annoying and delusional like not everything Paul makes is about John" well maybe Paul should stop injecting John into every conversation and every interview and every afterthought and then maybe just maybe I'll agree as a tinhat mclennoner but until then most songs Paul has written are about John, or especially their relationship, or are just awfully suspect.

“MANSFIELD: But, you know, [after John showed me the pictures of himself and Yoko nude for the album cover of Two Virgins], I asked Paul about this. And this, to me, is indicative of their relationship, maybe as much as anything I [had] ever heard. I said, “Paul, you know, what do you think about this?” And Paul says, “I don’t know.” He said, “I don’t really agree with John. But I just am going to figure that John’s ahead of me on this, and that someday I’ll understand and I’ll catch up. So, you know, I’m okay.” ROSEN: And what did that reaction tell you about their relationship? MANSFIELD: That it was an extremely deep relationship. And you know, you couple that with the thing Paul told me about, you know, when I asked him how come John’s name was on ‘Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da’ when I was there when he was writing it and John wasn’t. These two comments from Paul showed me what their – how deep their relationship was. ROSEN: What did he say on that occasion, about ‘Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da’? MANSFIELD: Okay. On ‘Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da’ […] I was in the hotel room, the bungalow with Paul [in L.A.]. And that night, when we were – he was working on some songs, and he included me on the writing, you know, just ‘cause I was there. He said, “What do you think of this?” And I’d say, “Well, why don’t you try this?” And the songs were ‘Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da’ and ‘[Back In The] U.S.S.R.’ And that was all. It was very casual. I drive home that night, and I’m going: “Wait a minute! Was I – was I songwriting with Paul McCartney? Wow, that’s pretty cool!” Well, you know, the record comes out, and it’s Lennon and McCartney. And I didn’t expect it to be Mansfield-McCartney. But I asked Paul, I said, “You know, I was there with you when you were writing this, and John wasn’t. And yet it’s a Lennon-McCartney.” And Paul said: “John and I are so close to each other, we’ve been through so much together, we understand each other so much, our relationship is so deep, that when we’re songwriting,” he said, “even if I’m 6,000 miles away, I can be working on something and I can hear John over my shoulder going, ‘No, no, no, that’s not gonna work; why don’t we do this?’ Or ‘Hey, I like this.’” He said, “So, in essence, to me, we’re songwriting together even if we’re not together.” ROSEN: Hmm! MANSFIELD: Now do you see something between those two comments about how their relationship, how it was very—? Even when I think they were at their furthest away from each other, I think there was something, a strong connection between those two people.”

what is beyond what we cannot see but can feel? life is more than just plans, love is more than just an emotion, death is more than just the end, what I believe in is more than just an illusion.
