Here are some things you probably don't know about me:

⭐Default Position: horse's ass
⭐Favorite Job: radio, club and event DJ
⭐Comedy Icons: Groucho, Pryor, Carlin, Robin Williams, Eddie Izzard
⭐Most rewarding job: Paralegal
⭐I like everybody, until they give me a reason not to like them.
Just this week President Trump claimed 300 million Americans died from drugs last year.

The entire population of the United States is only 340 million. I think we'd have noticed.

A little something about me...

I expose corruption and call out bullshit while dressed like I lost a fight with my laundry basket.

I'm seeing a little confusion as to what to call me now after the rebranding.

You can call me Bastard or Tom, whichever one works for you.

Apparently, humans think peace needs a rebrand. Sure.

Why not rename gravity while you’re at it?

Lotus drops tomorrow.

Bring popcorn 🍿

The Sun is fucking useless today.

Thanks for the light, asshole.

How about some heat?

Programming note:

This account is about to fully embrace its destiny as The Unredacted Bastard — same retired human, same politics, more coherent branding. New art and handle incoming.

There will still be tons of music, memes, and, of course, the occasional comment that makes you say, "WTF???"
