    I don’t think Harry Nilsson was very responsible with his drugs.

      Nothing wrong with not knowing, better than pretending you do!

      Cass Elliott was the singer in a band called The Mamas and the Papas.

      Harry Nilsson was a singer songwriter.

      Keith Moon was the drummer for the English rock band The Who

      :-)

    Nilsson was also one of John Lennon’s constant drinking companions during his “lost weekend” in Los Angeles that lasted for over a year.

      I do. That’s why I read the article. That’s how this works. You see… It may seem strange or scary when you first realize you’re not the only one that exists, and that’s okay- it’s normal when selfish people come to terms with their disability, but people- or, other entities that aren’t you, oftentimes find themselves interested in topics that you might not be interested in.

      Crazy, right?

                Heads up. You won’t be hearing from them again on this sub. I’m leaving up their comments to provide context for your replies.

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn’t matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.
