My pledge reward for indy station WMFU!
Another radio station proving that the problem isn’t technology, it’s content! I found out via Milk & Cheese’s creator Evan Dorkin how to get this unique thank-you gift if I donated a chunk of change to WMFU, a great station … Continue reading
What became of Arnold and Helga?
Well obviously they got married! Duh! This awesome piece of fan art was made by the same person behind the recent Simpsons couch gag last season. I hope you all remember, it’s the one with the kids being teens, having a … Continue reading
The January 6 Hearings
As the Democrats…no, the NeoLiberal Dumbfuck Party, sail head first into their drubbing this November, putting Amerika one step closer to a Christo-Fascist dictatorship under Ron DeSantis, they think televising their findings will prevent it. They’re thinking it will be … Continue reading
Now most of the US can play!
Welcome to the new Normal! So glad you selfish assholes, namely the Greatest Generation and Boomers, who continued to favor cheap gasoline, we are having the super-hot weather a month early! The added bonus is how you can’t escape it … Continue reading

Writ Large came to an end
Last year or in 2020, I think I stumbled upon Writ Large via the Onion‘s AV Club which I no longer bother with thanks to the shitty Gawker owners (yet they don’t own nor operate the new version of Gawker) using underhanded tactics to screw … Continue reading
RIP Julee Cruise
Very sad to see the news today and especially how Julie was suffering from lupus, so she was in serious pain. I read this tribute to her via the The Guardian to discover what a career Julee did beyond Twin Peaks which … Continue reading
Cool eco pencil
When I first received one of these pencils, my initial response was, great, there’s no eraser, thanks…I guess. Then this really nice person handing out treats gave me a couple more and explained why these pencils were cool and special. … Continue reading
RIP Dave Smith (Synth Guy)
Dang it, too many nice people dying lately but what Dave did just cannot be ignored by me and all who love music. He was a former Electrical Engineering and Computer Science student from UC-Berkeley who got his hands on … Continue reading

That explains the burning smell…
Originally I thought it was another remnant of Jennifer’s pancake incident but when I heard the popping noises from the master bathroom, I quickly realized how dumb I was. The 20-year-old fan setup in there had reached the end of … Continue reading
RIP Jim Seals
He sadly passed away Monday at 80 which is a pretty good run and for me he left behind a great legacy by helping define Soft Rock in the Seventies. Sure you could poo on that but hear me out … Continue reading
Racist, horoscope-dependent, blowjob queen gets stamp
Obviously, I’m writing about one of the worst First Ladies in History…Nancy Reagan. I forgot to mention, she was also co-president with her astrologer since St. Reagan already went into the job with alzheimer’s. I’m just curious, who the hell … Continue reading
Gave up on Beats, got AirPods this weekend
This week was the final straw with my third pair of Beats. It started off a crack in the plastics around the left headphone. So pissed. Not sure what caused it. Probably dropped to “hard.” Then something went amiss with … Continue reading
1942: The Battle of Midway begins
Eighty years ago, the Imperial Japanese Navy took the bait and advanced to attack the US outpost on Midway. With the Allies’ (the Aussies chipped in) success at sinking four enemy carriers, the outcome of WWII was now set into … Continue reading
The GOP Solution to make schools “safe”
This picture illustrates the solution the GOP is proposing since we know what their true answer is, “You all need to stop bitching and live with all these ridiculous measures because our base’s insecurities and ammosexuality is more important than … Continue reading
One “advantage” of campus work
I’ve been working on campus so much these last two weeks that I have been spared the struggles of balancing certain cats demanding attention while I’m working and co-workers avoiding unwanted cameos. The foster kittens were also going through the … Continue reading
