Every day, I strive to live the kind of life that makes the NSA goon that's eavesdropping on me have to take up heavy drinking.

There are 2 books which I would strongly suggest for people to read or re-read: The Hobbit. The Lord Of The Rings. This is from The Lord Of The Rings chapter is The Shadow of the Past.
‘I wish it need not have happened in my time,’ said Frodo. ‘So do I,’ said Gandalf, ‘and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.’

Even Hobbes, the most notoriously pro authoritarian government philosopher in history, who thought you had to obey even the worst government because it was better than no government, said that if your government just starts killing you, you don't have a social contact.

You don't have a government.

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

Eric Lee posted: Listen to the sound of the ongoing demonstration by detainees over conditions at Dilley. Incredible courage from these families and children. You can tell by the sound of their voices that so many of those shouting "libertad" and "let us go" are children!!

“We do NOT support ICE get off our property.” That’s exactly what happened when Commander Bovino and Border Patrol agents were refused service at a Minneapolis Speedway as locals and protesters pushed back.

Most NJ/NY parents hated the Uncle Floyd show but we loved it. And we loved Floyd Vivino, aka Uncle Floyd. The show featured fan art every day, but I was too scared to send in a drawing. Yrs later I drew Floyd for a Dr Demento album, got to meet him and tell him how much I revered him. RIP legend.
Photo taken at a signing at Forbidden Plant when the Doctor Demento: Covered in Punk album was released. From left to right is myself, Sarah Dyer, Fred Schneider, Uncle Floyd Vivino and Drew Friedman. Not seen are Dennis Diken, Doctor Demento, Jerry Only and John Cafiero. It was a wonderful event and I enjoyed it more as a fan than as someone who was part of the signing. I could have listened to Floyd and Drew Friedman talk old New York and New Jersey showbiz for days. Fun fact -- they were both sued by Joe Franklin! They both had fun stories about that. RIP Floyd Vivino, the great Uncle Floyd. Photo of myself with Uncle Floyd Vivino taken about nine years ago at an event on Staten Island. I wanted to meet him and show him the drawing I did of him for the Doctor Demento: Covered in Punk album that he was a guest artist on. I look like I'm about to bust, I was so nervoud meeting him. Photo by Ron Hill of JHU Comics of Staten Island. RIP Uncle Floyd Vivino. A photo of the drawing I did of Uncle Floyd Vivino. I'm not in the shot, I'm holding it while showing it to Uncle Floyd who is also off camera. Drawing of Uncle Floyd Vivino and Oogie done for the Doctor Demento: Covered in Punk album. The image is of the two of them standing in front of a wall of show flyers and stickers, which are mash ups of characters from The Uncle Floyd Show, punk and rock bands that were around back in the day and local New Jersey and New York clubs and theaters that Floyd and the gang appeared at. Oogie is holding a can of shaving cream because Uncle Floy and Oogie covered Benny Bell's novelty song Shaving Cream. RIP to a local legend.

RIP Uncle Floyd Vivino.
And goodbye, Oogie.
A graphic from when Uncle Floyd and his puppet sidekick Oogie were guest co-hosts on MtV for a night of videos. It shows Oogie and the text reads "Oggie's Hellpit of Horror Continues".

The rich assholes who tried to force everyone to continue to go to work anyway and die of Covid for their stock value are the same rich assholes whining that they will lose money if we don't embrace & worship their AI racket.

To those artists who whine "Just because you paid me to draw a commission doesn't mean that you own me."

That is true. However, once you took their money to do a job, they sure as fuck are RENTING you.

Nothing describes the US "healthcare" system better than a television show where a normal person with a normal job has to turn to crime, say, making and selling drugs after finding out he has a health emergency like cancer, just to survive the medical bills. someone should do this. Oh, wait.....

A friend of mine used to work as Security at an Indian Casino. To keep from going mad with boredom, he'd draw caricatures of some of the players he saw there.
