I am averse to lip balm and do consider using it effeminate. Not because it's like lipstick. Because it's medicine

"Beers For My Horses" is a great name for a country song because it's saying not only do you think drunk driving is ok, you think it should be worse

Don't remember how I heard about the Brisbane band Scrabbled (@lumperslump.bsky.social maybe?) whose record Welcome To Pig City I listened to a lot but they've got a new one. Sorta Velvets-y garage, shambolic tunes

If you lose your food stamps you can just steal food. If you lose medical care just kidnap a doctor. Talk to your neighbors to find out who kidnapped a specialist if you need a referral. Go to Mexico for your prescription drugs, or if you feel the heat coming down

It's really cool that these huge megastars - Emma Stone, Jennifer Lawrence, Rose Byrne - are out doing a ton of press to promote really abrasive "not for everyone" movies

Reminder that if you need to reach out to a friend I am a much better choice than ChatGPT. It's been like a decade since I told someone they should just kill themselves when they were complaining too much and being annoying

Domino's write-up of Journey Agent credits me for making him aware of it - those are well-drawn hobo comics from a crust-punk trainhopper type, priced affordably - check it out if that sounds good to you
Added some beautiful books to the Domino store, go grab em!

A lot of my religious or spiritual beliefs boil down to thinking consciousness is a miracle; it's insane we can think in language to apprehend the world, communicate, & work towards ideals. I see part of the goal of the fascist/AI project as to destroy thought + language in a way I consider demonic

RIP Dick Cheney. Born Chester Cobblepot in upperclass Gotham, he was exiled to the sewers for his grotesque animalistic habits. It was there he developed the avian motif that would serve him well when he entered the vibrant world of 90s supercrime.

There's that George Carlin line "think about how dumb the average person is, then remember half the population is dumber than that" which while smug is clarifying -people don't know 1/3 is larger than 1/4 or what potato chips are made from - but remember: AI is making people even dumber

Pranked harmlessly by a guy from a band and his wife as they pleaded ignorance of having heard of their band when I was like "oh there's a musician with that name." (It was Neil Burke from Men's Recovery Project)
