Planet Tokyo | Corned Beef, Trivia & Political Lulz

Planet Tokyo Yesterday's dinner ... [RIGHT-CLICK IMAGE, 'NEW TAB']  CORNED BEEF, WHITE SAUCE, VEGETABLES  CORNED BEEF, RED CABBAGE & CARROTS  CORNED BEEF, WHITE SAUCE, VEGETABLES WHITE SAUCE [RIGHT-CLICK IMAGE, 'NEW TAB'] The corned beef wasn't my idea.  I was reluctant because I couldn't be bothered (it was more fun playing pictures and making video clips ... LOL). But once I got going, it was so easy to do.  And it was a nice meal. The white sauce I made was really yummy.  I could eat nothing but white sauce.  In this one, I put in some hot English mustard and Parmesan. I like extras in mine. Today, I'm out of ideas.  So, it's probably a frozen curry of some kind.   I'm so glad I'm kind of OK at making curry.  It means not having to cook for ages.  LOL EDIT:  frozen chilli con carne won the day.  Exciting day today:  I can see grey hairs in the front of my hair.  As I find it aesthetically pleasing, I'm good with the grey ... but I'm not too impressed with the shorter hairs in the front.  It must be either broken hair (WTF?) or just my hair growing back after shedding non-stop for a couple of years.  Was curious why some music is so depressing: Music affects various parts of brain meter, timber, rhythm and pitch of music = managed in areas of brain re emotions = key areas are: hippocampus     - located each temporal lobe     - part of limbic system, & associated with memory and spatial navigation     - involved in memory formation, memory organization, & memory storing     - emotional responses [C16: from Latin, from Greek hippos horse + kampos a sea monster] [thefreedictionary] prefrontal cortex     - where personality is formed     - language fluency     - decision-making     - manages impulses and emotions     - inappropriate behaviour stopper parietal lobe     - sensory information integration / processing:  taste, temperature, touch     - spatial orientation     - cognition Music, change mood: music used in mood-altering therapy (depressed, anxious) & other uses - release of serotonin (soothing tunes)      happiness / sense of well-being - release of dopamine / feel-good neurotransmitter     paves way to release of:  norepinephrine (hormone:  euphoria, elation) http://examinedexistence.com/how-music-changes-your-mood/         http://brainmadesimple.com/hippocampus.html         http://brainmadesimple.com/frontal-lobe.html         http://brainmadesimple.com/parietal-lobe.html So if mood can be changed to depressed and feeling like sh*t by listening to depressing music, the reverse must be true.  Uplifting music would lift mood and relaxing music would presumably relax. But ... I'm not that into relaxing or uplifting music.  I prefer dramatic, high energy, up tempo, quirky (sometimes silly stuff), and maybe some kind of mood associated with the music that appeals at the time. Study of musicians made me laugh (because it sounds so absurd): ...  study found that over 60-percent of musicians have suffered from depression or other psychological issues, while 71-percent of those asked say that touring is a major factor in their mental health issues. source Either they're making really depressing music, or touring really is crap.  We just argued because I haven't got sufficient pre-frontal control not to swear (very loudly) when I f*ck up editing and have to repeat ... and because he's an assh*le that then has a go at me in the whiny-aggressive way he does, that makes me want to be sick. LOL Is there a musical cure for that, I wonder? Just noticed this remark by a musician, explaining the depressed state of musicians: ... producer Mat Zo explained why he feels the way he feels on tour. “Ninety-nine per cent of touring is the airports, the hotels, sitting in a metal tube for up to 16 hours at a time. It’s easy to let your mind and body slip into decay, even for a person with a healthy emotional state. For those with anxiety, hotel rooms are like prison cells.” source When that's just the effects of touring on musicians hanging around transit lounges and hotel rooms, which are compared to prison, IMAGINE what it must be like to be under siege in an embassy for over 4 years, surrounded by police 24/7 and living under constant UK state political persecution, as does Australian journalist-publisher, Julian Assange.  That's over 4 years of a police siege plus about a year and a half of other forms of state detention in the UK, WITHOUT CHARGE - and in need of urgent medical and dental treatment.  The UK, Swedish, Australian and American collaborative POLITICAL PERSECUTION of this AUSSIE JOURNALIST is UNDEMOCRATIC and CRIMINAL.

PLEASE SUPPORT AUSSIE JOURNALIST JULIAN ASSANGE @WikiLeaks LINK | Justice4Assange PLEASE SUPPORT WIKILEAKS LINK | WikiLeaks Shop LMAO ... just noticed a 'women's underwear' section at WikiLeaks shop.   I'm not sure I'd want undies with any kind of 'leaks' branding on them.   It reminds me of incontinence ...  And incontinence reminds me of Hillary Clinton's private e-mail server.  This is better than music therapy.  I'm laughing so hard I'm nearly crying.  Even my argumentative offsider is laughing. But he doesn't know what I'm laughing at ... he's just laughing at me laughing. LOL ... via hddude45 via KennartstheKing PUTIN'S EVERYWHERE! U K R A I N E I S R A E L LINK |  ARTICLE
