The Texas DPS occupation of Austin is pausing
Sadly, it isn’t due to them being unwelcome and unnecessary. Governor Shit-Bag needs them redeployed to the border to prevent more brown people from coming into Amerika, unless they’re willing to work for less than the domestics he already employs. … Continue reading
History of the World: Part 1
When I saw that Hulu was bankrolling the long awaited sequel that wasn’t really supposed to happen, it was part of the joke, I was excited. After watching a few, I couldn’t finish this Part 2 because it was sadly … Continue reading
In light of last Friday…
The cats will have to find a different way to kills us now. Fire and gas asphyxiation are now both off the table. The one dial we removed doesn’t operate anything we used on a regular basis, so I’m good.
Jennifer rejuvenated the door!
Great color choice but I’m more biased on liking the sign to keep the sales and Big Jesus people away. She threw in a welcome mat which probably will cause mixed signals with the shills I don’t want knocking on … Continue reading
Maybe cats are evil at their core…
A rare good thing about getting older, is my need to get up every two-to-three hours to piss while you youngsters stay asleep, was it allowed me to wake up quickly when the smoke detectors made their obnoxious noises. Rushing … Continue reading
Why Amerika must have mandatory retirement ages in gov’t
This other worthless mummy or bag of skin and lobbyist money, finally returned to Congress. I guess her staffers were ordered by K Street to do something or else the checks would stop coming. Christ! I don’t think Senator Crypt … Continue reading
I’m not your T-shirrrrrrrrrrt!
It has been probably years since I posted one of my shirt acquisitions but maybe this fun one of Chowder will bring it back as a trend. I found this at a store I’ve never heard of called Box Lunch. Originally … Continue reading
Instead of sensible gun control, we get this in Amerika
This is how pathetic the Amerikan gubmint is and what thoughts & prayers results in. Despite the clear evidence showing how more guns makes the country less safe, the Republican bullshit talking point about good guys with guns being deprived … Continue reading
RIP Frank Kozik
Sad to find out Frank died suddenly and he wasn’t very old, a mere 61, which is somewhat early in this era. If you think those PowerComputing posters look familiar, you’re right. In the Nineties, Frank was the go-to guy … Continue reading

Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret: Must See
The inaugural and probably most famous Judy Blume novel finally makes its debut on the big screen. I figured it had been at least a made-for-TV thing a couple times but Blume had repeatedly said no to every attempt until … Continue reading
More instances of no good guys in sight
It’s a good thing the Republicans keep introducing laws to make it even easier for nut jobs, ammosexuals, disgruntled exes and white supremacists to buy guns. Seems that their plan for vigilantes to counter what’s happening is falling short. To … Continue reading
Gareth Reynolds is coming to Austin but sadly without José
A fan made this cool logo! No, that’s not my cat Agamemnon, it’s Gareth’s cat Josél so I figure they’re distant cousins given their appearance, cute disposition and love of food. The co-host of The Dollop is giving Austin another chance … Continue reading
GOP needs a wahbulance May ’23 edition
Republicans and their allies never grow tired of being wrong about everything. Firstly, I doubt there’s a solid definition of counter culture. It’s more of a moving target and it’s also just what ever puts old people’s undies in a … Continue reading
Tom Jones!
I haven’t written about the concerts I’ve attended in years because I got behind then decided, the hell with it. However, I couldn’t let Tom Jones appearing in Austin slide! At 82 going on 83, he’s still got it. Women … Continue reading
RIP Gordon Lightfoot
Gordon’s voice was a constant when I was growing up in the Seventies. In my opinion, he was the leading artist towards the formation of Adult Contemporary as a radio format. Sure you’d hear him on Pop stations (WLS, WGN, … Continue reading
