Kinda fucked up that we all coo and sympathize with "former gifted kids" but never talk about the students who had to stay late after school or over the summer for remedial classes/clubs, who struggled to get above a C, who were given up on or punished. Who tried so hard to understand or just couldn't. Who were grouped with the "stupid kids" (a classmate called us that in remedial math btw)
Autistic kids and adhders who can't relate to their gifted peers and are constantly alienated by them. Kids who struggled in school due to dealing with a chronic or mental illness or physical/learning/developmental disability. Those of us who have had to drop out of highschool or college. Kids who worked so hard and wanted to be seen as smart, but never were. Who watched as their peers seem to fly by them in school, while they were left behind. Who were bullied and put down by those in the gifted and honors classes. Whose confidence was absolutely destroyed by education.
I love you all and I'm so sorry the school system failed you. I'm sorry you weren't properly accommodated and given the education you deserved. I'm sorry people put you down for something that they never had to fight for.

At the 2019 Houston show, Roger struggled a lot with his ragweed allergy while singing Who Are You, and he was basically either gasping or sneezing between every line. He managed to complete the song and sang pretty well but was visibly frustrated. So as soon as Pete finished playing the guitar, he went over and patted Roger on the back to comfort him😢and before the next song started, Pete told the audience:
"I want you all to do something for Roger. Just tell him that it's a banner of beat and sweat (he turned around to face Roger), so nobody gives a fuck if you ain’t gonna talk or perform. We fucking love you."
I’m literally in tears because this kind of conflicted furious dreaded strong yet unrestrained and even unrequited and completely unfathomable love really did exist in the world for so many years I just?!!! I can’t?!!!!
look at him SERVE!!!!

Upon visiting her son in hospital after his 72 day ordeal, she "walked in like a queen", and the first thing she said was -
"Feliz Navidad, mi hijo" (Merry Christmas, my son)
