Rather than wallow in misery, he seemed to use his music to rally against it. That, along with his magnificent voice, really resonated with me.

his voice even had that quality on the more depressing songs, like “Like a Stone,” which is easily in my top 5 songs of all time. it’s definitely been a punch to the gut to realize he couldn’t survive all the battles.

...but there was something so joyful and alive to me in Soundgarden’s music despite the dark lyrics.

I realized 2 seconds after hearing this horrible news that Eddie Vedder is the only front man left of my 90's grunge bands. Layne Staley, Scott Weiland, Kurt Cobain and now Chris Cornell.

The news this morning felt like a punch to the face. Soundgarden and Temple of the Dog were mainstays in my personal music library in high school and college. I even willingly paid for (and enjoyed) some of his solo work. His voice was mesmerizing and his lyrics put into words all of the depression-fueled emotions…

This is my ringtone :/

Being the “best country in the world™” means fucking acting like it.

I’ve had a crush on Chris Cornell since I was 12.

Yeah, this is some Hugo Schwyzer shit right here.

As a psychiatrist I dated put it, “Yeah, with anxiety, your world just gets smaller and smaller and smaller.”

It really does go too far. Because only one of them is assured of health insurance in the event.

I know you Trumpettes love fake facts, but Trump lose the popular vote, so...less than half.

“more than half of us”

Pence only eats Mother’s pie.

That appears to be professional golfer John Daly rather than Donald Trump.

I am zero percent surprised that Pence opts for a fruit plate instead of pie, aka the Devil’s dessert.

isn’t there a joke about that? The difference between actors and writers in Hollywood is that the actors aren’t too proud to wait your tables.

“I was trying to explain that all hospitals are required by law to treat patients in need of emergency care regardless of their ability to pay and that the Republican plan does not change that,”

That’s a shitty way to treat John Stockton.
