Yup! It happened again!
First, I am going to link back to these two blog posts, one from two years ago and the other back from 2017. Here they are:
Views From The Outhouse: The anatomy of a jerk / Happenings In The Outhouse 27-Jan-2017
Well, it happened again. A few weeks ago now as I write this (I typically write these a few weeks in advance, although the posts I've done lately on the short stories were done over a series of months) someone in the music industry now came forward and dishearteningly made a statement on them not participating in an event to celebrate . . . well, let's put it this way, instead of writing on the nose about this one and publicly stating who it is, let me just share that it's a leader of a band that I have been a huge fan of, and follower of, for decades. Yes, decades!
All the way back to the mid-1980s rock scene, mind you. Probably one of my favorite bands--if not my favorite.
Not any longer.
I unfollowed them. Everywhere. From all social media and even Spotify.
Am I being petty?
Maybe. But as other entertainers have stated lately, entertainers entertain. That's it. Like me. I'm a writer. I write. I write to entertain. That's it. Do not ask me my political opinion. I will not state it publicly. I do have views, I do have values.
I am just not going to share it. There are better things to do.
