Paul McCartney died on November 9th, 1966. He stormed out of a recording session, drove off into the night, and never came back. It was a car crash. And the three remaining Beatles, staring down the end of the biggest band on Earth, made a choice. They replaced him. His name is William Campbell. A lookalike who won a Paul McCartney impersonation contest, slid into the most famous band in history, and the world never noticed. Except the Beatles couldn’t live with the secret. So they told you through their music, and hoped you’d hear it. Play “Revolution 9” backwards. That endless “number nine, number nine” turns into “turn me on, dead man.” Go listen to it, if you don’t believe me. The Abbey Road cover is a funeral poster. John dressed in white, the priest. Ringo in black, the mourner. George in denim, the gravedigger. And Paul? Barefoot. Out of step with the others. The way bodies are buried in some cultures. Look closer at that cover and you’ll find the license plate on the car behind them. It reads “28IF.” As in, Paul would have been 28, IF he had lived. On Sgt. Pepper, the figure they say is Paul wears an arm patch reading “OPD.” Officially Pronounced Dead. One clue is a coincidence. A dozen of them is a message. And I could go on and on… But Paul, or William, is still alive today. So if you really want to know who’s been standing in his place for sixty years… don’t ask me. Ask him. H/T Phillip Nessbert

Most people in France can't afford housing. They didn't blame immigrants, or transgender people, or video games, or avocado toast. They blame the government. Because that's who's responsible. That's always who's responsible.

No one on one time needed. No pretending to care. No worries about someone coming in and yelling at them. It also doesn't hurt that Daddy is paying all the severance.

Be honest… #genx
