In 2014 my man Anthony Joseph Lanman asked me to participate in a kick-ass project. His first album of his musical compositions was ready, titled SYNESTHESIAC, and he wanted different artists to create original art covers for the vinyl releases.

"cornered rat" is the best descriptive of the Orange Nazi Baby.
And then think of what a cornered psychopathic human being with the morals and instincts of a rat and control of over five thousand nuclear warheads would do.
This is a very dangerous moment for the country and the world. A cornered rat will do anything to escape.

At a screening of their documentary, the Butthole Surfers decided to play a quick set instead of answering stupid questions. This is the best quality I have found, thanks to Elizabeth!

RXTT's Book Journey continues with a doozy, Julian Jaynes' "The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind"
This was a great book! I can see why it has been highly recommended by many of my favorite authors.

Hey everyone. What would happen if, theoretically, we ALL decided NOT to file Taxes for 2025, seeing as how the government has decided to take a very extended vacation, with pay? They cannot steal what we do not give them.
