Rage Against the Machine’s Tim Commerford: “I Have Prostate Cancer”

The post Rage Against the Machine’s Tim Commerford: “I Have Prostate Cancer”appeared first on Consequence.

Rage Against the Machine bassist Tim Commerford has revealed that he’sbattling prostate cancer.

“I’ve been dealing with some pretty serious shit,” he told Spider. “Rightbefore I was about to go on tour with Rage, I had my prostate removed, and Ihave prostate cancer.”

As Commerford explained, “I went to get life insurance but my PSA numbers wereup. I couldn’t get it. They wouldn’t insure me. At first, the number was verylow — like one-point-something. I watched it over the course of a year and ahalf, and it kept elevating further. Eventually, they did a biopsy and foundout I had cancer, so they took my prostate out. I had been thinking, well,because they’re watching it and let it get to this point, maybe it’s not thatbig of a deal. I blame myself. I should have said, ‘My numbers are elevatedand what does that really mean?’ I should have taken it more seriously.”

The 54-year-old added, “Now I’m in the situation that I’m in, which is, holdyour breath for six months. It’s not a good one and not one that I’m happyabout. I’m just trying to grab hold of the reins. It’s going to be a longjourney, I hope. My dad died in his early 70s from cancer and my mom died fromcancer in her 40s. Split the difference to 65 and I’ve got 10 years. I’mtrying to get to the 100-song mark — I have some goals now.”

He’s pursuing those goals with his new band, 7D7D, which recently releasedtheir debut single “Capitalism,” as well as with his old friends in RageAgainst the Machine. But Commerford nearly wasn’t able to perform on Rage’shighly anticipated “Public Service Announcement Tour.”

“Two months before the tour, I had surgery and my doctors said I wasn’t goingto be ready,” he recalled. “That was brutal. I would be on stage looking at myamp in tears. Then you just kind of turn around and suck it up. Because ofZack [de la Rocha]’s injury, we had planned these little video interstitialsthat came in between blocks of songs. We were meant to go on stage, play somesongs, go off stage, and on to the interstitials for a few minutes. It wasseamless. Then he got hurt and we couldn’t leave the stage. So during theinterstitials, we’re just sitting there. That was surreal. I would sometimessit down and try not to think about certain things. It was weird. I kept it tomyself throughout the touring we did and it was brutal.” de la Rocha’s tornachilles ultimately forced Rage to cancel their 2023 tour dates.

Commerford hadn’t planned on revealing his diagnosis. “Prostate cancer is avery, very, very tough one because it’s connected to your sexuality,” he said.“It’s hard to disconnect from that and when you’re forced into that situation,it’s a brutal psychological journey. I’ve been trying to find support groups,and it’s hard to find people and hard to talk about it. The suffering part ofit, the physical suffering after the surgery, I’ve never felt pain quite likethat. I have metal plates in my head and cadaver parts in my body. I’ve done alot of damage through sports and mountain biking and this sort of thing andI’ve always felt like I had a really high tolerance for pain, and that shitbrought me to my knees. After the pain went away, I still haven’t really beenable to get up, even though I’m working out and doing shit, butpsychologically, the damage is severe. It’s very hard for me to not break downand get emotional.”

But Commerford has found a community of sorts, and has seen his experiencemirrored in some of his idols. “I was with my girlfriend and we were watchingthe Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony on TV. Duran Duran was on and I waslike, ‘Ah, fuck, I used to learn those songs when I was a kid.’ I saw them onstage and wondered, where’s Andy Taylor and why do they have this other guy inhere?! Then it was like, ‘Andy Taylor is suffering from stage four prostatecancer and is unable to make it.’ My life is sort of like that. There are alot of people who have it. There are a lot of people who are like, ‘Where doyou go?’ You can’t talk to a therapist. You can only really talk to someonewho’s going through it.’”

After everything he’s been through, there’s cause for optimism. “I just got mysix-month test, and it came back at zero. I was like, ‘Fuck yeah!’ That’s thebest I can feel for the rest of my life. Every day I get closer to that testis like, ‘Fuck man, is this going to be the time when the number is going togo up and I’m going to the next thing, whatever that is?’ I already wentthrough some pain and shit. And I’m continuing to go through like, some crazyshit.”

Amy Schumer on painful endometriosis battle: It’s a “lonely disease”

Amy Schumer has been candid about the symptoms and procedures she’s undergoneto treat endometriosis — and she’s hoping her story helps others strugglingwith pain to find their voices.

The comedian opened up about the “lonely disease” and the stigma associatedwith periods in an intimate interview with CBS News medical contributor Dr.David Agus for the new Paramount+ original docuseries “The Checkup with Dr.David Agus.” The 30-minute episode will be available to stream startingTuesday, Dec. 13.

“I’ve been in so much pain, you know, my whole life — not just the week of myperiod,” said Schumer, 41, in the episode, adding that “it’s been reallydifficult,” Schumer said she’s been experiencing severe pain for decades sinceshe first got her period.

Endometriosis is a disorder that occurs when the uterine lining grows outsideof the uterus in places like the fallopian tubes, ovaries or other tissuearound the pelvic area, which can cause painful cramping during your period,Dr. Agus explained in the episode. In addition to painful periods, othercommon symptoms of endometriosis include pain during intercourse, painfulurination or bowel movements, cysts, infertility and more, the Mayo Clinicsays.

More than 11% of American women between the ages of 15 and 44 may be affectedby endometriosis, according to the Office on Women’s Health, which is part ofthe US Department of Health and Human Services.

Last year, Schumer had a hysterectomy, a removal of the uterus, to help treather endometriosis. She also underwent an appendectomy, explaining in anInstagram post at the time that doctors found a tumor in her “endo-ravagedappendix.”

“You know, for months, I had been complaining of pain…it was just this painyou can’t see. And, you know, there is the inclination to always think a womanis just being dramatic,” Schumer said in the interview .

“My pain is real. Your pain is real. We have to advocate for ourselves. Wehave to speak up. And you know what? I’m worried this video is annoying, but Idon’t care, because I hope that it helps one woman go and find out why she’sin so much pain,” Schumer said in a Sept. 21, 2021, Instagram video, which hasgarnered nearly 1.5 million views.

Schumer said the scars from the surgeries are worth it because she feltimmediate relief.

“It just felt like someone lifted this veil that had been over me. And I justfelt like a different person… like a new mom,” Schumer said.

In 2018, when Schumer was pregnant with her son Geneshe was hospitalized withhyperemesis, a severe type of morning sickness.

Schumer’s son, who is now 3 years old, was hospitalized in early November forthe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) but has since recovered.

NH Helps: Debby lost her husband and was left with a huge gambling debt: “I went through hell”

While Debby is packing the last things for the summer holidays, her husbandlies down on the couch. Let’s watch the Tour de France on TV. He falls asleepand when Debby comes downstairs she can’t wake him up. “I totally panicked, Iscreamed for him to wake up. He was breathing strangely and was shaking. Henever woke up again.”

He will eventually be 48 years old. “Much too young, of course, then you are42 and then you are suddenly a widow,” says Debby with a lump in her throat.She had felt for a long time that something was not right, but she could neverput her finger on it. “I thought he had something wrong. He lived unhealthyand was stressed. Only later did it become clear what was going on.”

Online gambling

Because when her brother-in-law called her, all the puzzle pieces fell intoplace. “He had asked for loans from acquaintances and had a huge amountoutstanding. So my husband had a terrible gambling addiction that I nevernoticed. He secretly did it online on his phone or on an old laptop that I wasnot allowed to touch. That It was a huge shock to me.”

“Our marriage has always been based on trust, honesty is the best policy,”says Debby as we visit her husband’s grave at the cemetery in Sint Pancras.”He was an accountant, a reliable good guy. I trusted him with our moneymatters. I think he wanted to solve it, he never wanted it that way, but hedidn’t get that chance again.”

“Debby is someone who cares very much about people, now she needs help, love> and support and then you have to take action”>> Albert van Duijn, Donate for Debby

Due to their marriage, Debby is ultimately held liable for an amount of125,000 euros. The surplus value of the house must be used to pay thecreditors. To prevent that, friends start an action. One of them is Albert vanDuijn who created the website Donate before Debby launches. “Debby issomeone who really cares about people, now she needs help, love and supportand then you have to take action. She deserves to be helped.”

In December, NH Nieuws surprises people who could use a helping hand with theNH Hartverwarmer: a package with handy and nice things. We also visit Debbyand when we ring the doorbell it turns out that she has good news. The 125,000euros have arrived!

NH Helps: Debby lost her husband and was left with a gambling debt of 125,000euros: “I went through hell” – NH News

The campaign was already going very well for Debby, but after an anonymousgenerous donor has deposited 50,000 euros, the goal has been reached. “It isreally bizarre that the amount has already been received within two weeks. Iam so very grateful to the people. It is difficult for everyone at the momentwith the high energy prices and expensive groceries. That they still want todonate and help us That’s really fantastic.”

And even now that the goal has been reached, people can continue to donate.All the money that remains goes to a charity that helps gambling addicts.Because Debby and her family have been through hell. A hell that, according toDebby, no one should end up in. She has already written letters to the cabinetrequesting that online gambling be restricted.

Bad horror movie

Because, according to Debby, that happens too little. “There are so manyadvertisements for online gambling on television. You see it in thecommercials during football matches, which young people are also sensitive to.Gambling is simply promoted, that is not possible? A ban is being worked on,but in the meantime it is causing a lot of damage You end up in a bad horrormovie.”

Now that she knows she can continue to live in her home, Debby finally hastime to grieve. She couldn’t sleep at night because of the stress and worries.”The three of us now have to move on. We are a table with a leg cut off.Fortunately, we can stay in our house. A priceless house thanks to all thepeople who donated. A house of love.”

_We have not mentioned Debby ‘s surname (known to the editors) because of theprivacy of her children. _

Does Van der Plas turn citizens and farmers against each other? “Could,” she says

The eyes, the eyebrows, half of his nose. Amber Kortzorg’s mother points toher father’s features in her daughter’s face. The father who bathed and rockedher to sleep, witness the baby photos, but missed the rest of her upbringing.He went back to Suriname, Amber grew up in the Netherlands with a Dutchmother. A red-haired girl, with brown freckles on fair skin. It was her motherwho taught her to cook roti, let her speak Sranantongo words, and danced withher to Surinamese music. “I have always said: I have a Surinamese father,”says Amber Kortzorg in the first part of the six-part series Everything isfamily (BNNVARA). “I never said: I am half-Surinamese.”

For the third time in her life she travels to Suriname for this series, forthe first time as an adult woman who wants to get to know the country to seeif she can recognize herself there. In the first part it is mainly the otherswho recognize her as a daughter of the land. Starting with her hair. CurlyHair Academy hairdresser Titinbo Aviankoi washes Amber’s red curls and braidsthem in tight lines over her head. Amber continues to see a white woman with ablack haircut in the mirror. Is that possible, she wonders. Isn’t thatcultural appropriation?

Last Monday, at Other times (NTR), I saw presenter Astrid Sy sitting in ahairdresser’s chair just as uncertainly, but then in the Netherlands with thegranddaughter of the first black hair hairdresser of the country. Sy tellsthe hairdresser that she has always found her frizzy hair too bouncy andfrizzy. It had to be sleek, smooth and straight like that of the other girlsin the class. The hairdresser imperturbably cuts and scrunches her curls intothe lush forest she inherited from her Senegalese father. Sy looked in themirror, but she didn’t seem completely happy with who she saw.

The T-shirt of Kortzorg’s hairdresser in Suriname says: ‘We don’t do hair. Wedo identity.’ Hair (wear) determines who you are, she says. “It alsodetermines how you want to be seen.” That was exactly the point Other times, because it applies to untamed frizzy hair just as much as to the mohawks ofthe punks, the shaved heads of football players and the round hair of Beatrix.The hairdresser recognizes her “Surinamese roots” in Amber’s curls. Surinamein her hair, and that’s just the beginning.

The whole story’

Caroline van der Plas, Member of Parliament of BoerBurgerBeweging, did notanswer for a few seconds. The question of Media logic was if she believed inconspiracy theories. No, she said then. “I do not think so.” She founded herparty in 2021 to tell citizens the “whole story” about the agriculturalsector. That she does not shy away from half-truths and three-quarters oflies, leaves the episode Farmer Burger Imaging see beautiful.

Take her reproach that the government is not interested in nature, theenvironment or climate. No, the farmers have to leave so that their farmlandcan be built up with houses. Nonsense, said Alex Datema, dairy farmer. Hecalculated that for the construction of 1 million houses no more than 1 to 1.5percent of all agricultural land is needed. He also knew why Van der Plasstill keeps saying it: “To incite farmers.” Don’t they pit citizens andfarmers against each other in this way, asked the Medialogica reporter. Vander Plas thought for a moment, and then said: “Could be.” That was fair ofher.

She also acknowledged that she hadn’t even read half of the report by nitrogenprofessor Jan Willem Erisman. She flared his plans after reading the frontpage of the Telegraph. Too bad, because he didn’t say less farmers shouldcome, but less animals. She then half-heartedly promised to read the reportagain in its entirety.

Cristiano Ronaldo ha hecho sus primeras declaraciones este domingotras la eliminación de Portugal a manos de Marruecos (1-0) el sábado en loscuartos de final de Qatar 2022. “Ganar una Copa del Mundo para Portugal fue elsueño más grande y ambicioso de my carrera. Afortunadamente, gané muchostítulos de dimensión internacional, incluyendo Portugal, pero poner el nombrede nuestro país en el pie más alto del mundo fue mi mayor sueño”, ha empezado.“Tristemente, ayer el sueño terminó. No vale la pena reaccionar en caliente.Solo quiero que todos sepan que mucho se ha dicho, mucho se ha escrito, muchose ha especulado, pero mi dedicación a Portugal no ha cambiado en ningúnmomento”, ha añadido.

Mundial de Qatar: ¿Con quién vamos ahora y por qué? | Mundial Qatar 2022

Que no sabemos nada de nosotros lo demuestra, como tantas otras cosas, elfútbol. Cuando tu selección, si la tienes, se va de la Copa del Mundo, ¿conquién vas? Un aficionado encuentra siempre razones, aunque sean las másestúpidas, para ver con emoción un encuentro de fútbol: la emoción de quientoma partido, de quien desea algo, no de que gane el mejor. Esas razones, deniño, son fantasticas. José Luis Garci, uno de los hinchas atléticos másreconocidos, contó que él creía que se había hecho de su equipo por el colorde la camiseta: “En aquella época de blanco y negro, el Atleti era azul, erarojo. Los blancos — el Valencia, el Sevilla, el Madrid — estaban empastados ensu tiempo”. Luego hay razones ineludibles. Entre los hijos de David Gistau,madridistas como su padre, se coló un atlético; el propio Garci, su padrino,lo hizo socio nada más nacer. Lo que quiero decir es que de niño te puedeshacer aficionado de cualquier cosa por cualquier motivo, aunque te vaya acondicionar toda la vida, e incluso -lo digo por experiencia- ganarte el odiode gente mayor, respetable, con opiniones ponderadas sobre todo , que, alsaber que cuando tenías tres años te hiciste del Madrid, te odianvisceralmente: esas pocas personas no sólo existen, sino que, en el minutoantes de morir, descubrirán que ellos también son madridistas, ¡y lo que seperdieron! La vida es implacable cobrando deudas.

Pero de adulto, ¿de qué equipo te vas a hacer con 44 años? Ese grito le peguéen un bar a Nacho Carretero, con el que quedé el viernes para ver el PaísesBajos – Argentina. El, de Argentina. Yo, no idea. No soy anti-Messi; siemprehe dicho que, de haber jugado en el Madrid en vez del Barcelona, ​​yo hubierasido mejor escritor (no sé por qué la familia no valoró eso cuando lo mandarona España). Y tengo más afinidad cultural con Argentina; tengo familia lejana,tengo un idioma, tengo escritores, tengo amigos. Me iría a vivir dos millonesde veces antes a Argentina que a Holanda. Sin embargo, no era capaz de sabercon quién iba: esa cosas no se controlan, también he querido que perdieseEspaña alguna vez, por ejemplo contra Zidane en 2006. Así que empecé a ver elpartido desquiciado, porque no hay peor cosa que ver un partido de fútbol sinsaber con quién vas. Es no tener una razón para vivir durante 90 minutos. Peropronto hice gestos y comentarios técnicos con los vecinos de mesa, todos ellosargentinos o hinchas argentinos. Me hicieron uno de ellos. Celebré los golesargentinos (con el primero incluso me levanté y le palmeé la mano a un chavalde Buenos Aires). Era ya el Manolo del Bombo criollo, canturreaba bajito “enArgentina nací, tierra de Diego y Lionel”. Pregunté en la barra si habíachoripanes.

Así estábamos cuando marcó Países Bajos en el último segundo del partido y mevi a mí mismo saltando y gritando gol de tal manera que casi tiro la silla ala cristalera. La pena flipando, claro. Sensation of Traicion. Mi amigo deBuenos Aires, en la otra mesa, hundido por el doble golpe, quién sabe si teníapensado seguir viendo el Mundial conmigo, los dos bufandeando. And cuanto amí, ¿qué me pasó? No tengo ni idea. Yo no sabía que iba con Holanda, de hechoaún no lo tengo claro ahora. Si sé con quién voy en semis, con Modric. Pero ami me daba igual Holanda, aunque tampoco sabía que me daba tanto igualArgentina. Quizá fue la ambición de no querer perderme un gol: el hinchaventajista que, al no jugar su equipo, celebra los de todos, esa especiedetestable. Pero, muy por dentro, muy por dentro, me jodió el de Lautaro. Si,noy soy anti-Messi. Pero hubo algo de madridismo ahí.

Peter Handke, un ‘after’ y la cuchara de Totti | Mundial Qatar 2022

El fin de semana pasado fui a Barcelona a visitar a mi madre. El viernes meinvitaron a un cumpleaños y dejé a mi hija con ella. La celebración, como eraimaginable vistos los participantes, se alargó ya la salida de una discoteca,un grupo de amigos decidió seguir en una casa. Yo no lo tenia claro. O melargaba en ese mismo instante o me iba a encontrar despierta a mi madre cuyamirada, a mis 42 años, iba a poner en duda demasiadas cosas a estas alturas dela noche. Y de la vida. Como siempre, dude demasiado. Pero un insólito raptode lucidez me apartó mientras los otros enfilaban el sendero del after.Cuando metí la llave en la cerradura vi la luz encendida y supe que quizáhabía tomado la decisión acertada, pero no en el momento adecuado. Chutar porel ángulo correcto, en suma, unos segundos tarde. Más o menos así debefuncionar la ciencia del penalti de la que renegó Luis Enrique para nopreparar la tanda que eliminó a España contra Marruecos. Tambien la de Brasil.Especialmente cuando no cuentas con el talento de determinados personajes parasaber cuándo toca o no hacer algo.

Dibu Martínez: La terapia de Argentina en el Mundial | Mundial Qatar 2022

“Fue un matrimonio perfecto”, cuenta al otro lado del teléfono el portuguésJosé Gomes, entrenador de aquel equipo de la peripheria londinense, hasta hacepoco en la Ponferradina ya punto de regresar al Marítimo. “Nos ayudamosmutuamente esos seis meses. Necesitábamos un portero que supiera jugar con lospies y tuviera contundencia aérea, y él, continuidad. Nadie creía que nospudiéramos salvar y lo hicimos”, celebra el técnico, que destaca de Dibu suliderazgo natural –”solo hablaba cuando tenía algo que deciry la fortalezamental. “Era un cubo de heelo en el uno contra uno. Eso no es solo técnica”,subraya. The nuevo, la cabeza. “Mi fuerte es el trabajo mental”, ha avisado enmás de una ocasión el meta. La campaña siguiente, the vuelta al Arsenal,disfrutó de algo más de huella y en 2020 el Aston Villa lo convirtió en elportero argentino más caro (17.4 millones).

A la Albiceleste ascendió hace un año y siempre se ha tenido como uniluminado. “Yo estoy hecho para la selección, desde los 13 sabía que podíallegar. En Rusia, estaba en la cancha con mi hermano y un amigo, y les prometíque iba a jugar el próximo Mundial”, aseguraba hace unos meses en Clarin. Alfinal, apareció bajo palos solo 10 días antes de la Copa América de 2021 quelevantó y ahí se ha quedado. No se apartó ni cuando nacio su hija (le pillóentrenando).

Fue una tanda de penaltis la que le atornillo definitivamente y, como no, unjuego mental con los lanzadores. And las semifinals, a los colombianos losvolvió locos. “Te estás riendo, pero estás nervioso. Hacete el boludo, ya teconozco. Mira que yo te la atajo, que te como, hermano”, le soltó a YerryMina. “Lo siento, pero te como, hermano”, le dijo a Davinson **** Sanchez. ACardona no le gritó nada, pero dio igual. Fallaron los tres.
