Helen Mirren: Isn't it sad that Kurt Cobain never used satnav
Helen Mirren: Isn't it sad that Kurt Cobain never used satnav
the "always say" is sending me
This just in: Helen Mirren really does always say that she's sad Kurt Cobain missed out on various technology.
Random Geek in limbo@stavvers It's weird for a second, but I think I get it. Behind the "marvels of technology" aspect, there's "if people could find help or community easier, if the people who loved them could find them more easily, would they still be with us?"
Still a little naive maybe given the last few decades of Internet, but I get it.
@stavvers But Cobain is so oddly specific, yeah. Guessing there's a connection or some intense admiration?
@randomgeek yeah, it's really weirdly specific, and I can't seem to find anything indicating they even knew each other
@stavvers One thought: there was a slice of Boomer folks that really latched onto Cobain, sort of seeing Kurt as a reincarnation of Jim Morrison or something. Not literally, but you know. A poet genius for the new generation, that kind of thing.
When Cobain died, it seemed to me the most broken folks around were teens and that slice of Boomers.
Maybe?
But yeah it's all guessing without more context.

She has mentioned long term personal issues with anxiety and depression. Maybe the conection is she contemplated/attempted suicide when she was the age he killed himself.

catch@randomgeek @stavvers I'm wondering if an AOL CD arrived on her doorstep the same week that he died. Or something similar to that.
