Another demonstration of Kapitalism’s failure
This is one of Austin’s numerous homeless camp sites and it’s within a mile of my house; it’s not just an LA or NYC problem! Does it worry or bother me? Yes but not for the same reasons it upsets … Continue reading
ERCOT’s current solution from Abbott’s base
So far, our shit-bag governor putting the CEO of a truck-stop chain in charge of ERCOT isn’t really working out. As expected, the GOP-run Idiocracy has been begging people to scale back their AC usage and to not run major … Continue reading
We’ve achieved peak Austin! Horribly Hot with Weird on course
Mucca Sacra! Nothing could be more Austin Weird than this stupid person on a scooter exposing their skin to third-degree burns in 10 minutes (or stage one skin cancer in 20). One friend thinks they’re from Venice Beach, CA where … Continue reading
Now the animals are just taunting us
After two years or so of the Pandemic, the animals are getting a little too close for comfort and I think they’re rubbing it in…hey, look at us, we’re not afraid of you dumb humans! This doe just hanging out … Continue reading
Greetings from Austin this Fourth
Click on it for a larger card to play and sorry, no backsies on the horrible free space.
An Austin-based friend returns!
Yesterday, I decided to give Jennifer some relief in helping out with her chauffeuring request from Cheyenne (her daughter who won’t/can’t drive, lacks a car). We headed up to the Round Rock Outlet Mall to kill an hour, waiting for … Continue reading
As per Astronomy, Summer is “here!”
We already have had a one-month head start on the heat wave which also means Climate Change arrived years ago but it remains a fiction to the morons in charge with their legions of millions like my dead uncle and … 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

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
Reason number 162 on why Alamo Drafthouse rules!
Well, people dressing up as movie characters at the same movie isn’t terribly new but only Austinites would bother for Bob’s Burgers given how much support we residents and Alamo Drafthouse have provided! It was cool to see these people as … Continue reading
Alamo Drafthouse turned 25!
Completely choked on getting the date right, it was two days ago. Doesn’t matter too much. When the first Alamo Drafthouse opened at 4th and Colorado, I was neck deep in all the crap happening with PowerComputing: the IPO, trying … Continue reading
Commuting hasn’t changed too much
Last week, I had to drive to the campus three times and although I have grown accustomed to the joys of working at home, especially when my Agamemnon shows me how happy he is in my lap; I never really … Continue reading
Playmobil finally made an Austinite!
Finally! Playmobil made the most accurate and representative toy of what I often seen whenever I go to downtown Austin (usually Sixth Street area, Rainey Street are or South Congress Avenue). I imagine you could say this guy also fits … Continue reading
Ohio’s campaign to stop their negative trend by being negative!
I have let this lame campaign of bullshit go on long enough but during this Moontower Comedyfest, one comedian put Ohio in its place…It’s Amerika’s Cheesecake Factory, which means it’s the center of our nation’s decline via overpriced crap and mediocrity. … Continue reading
Back to my workplace yesterday was pretty good
I’m pretty lucky since I got to volunteer for the gradual plan for the next six weeks but I dread it may be pointless as another strain hits the Northeast a handful of Moontower Comedyfest guests tested positive. I think … Continue reading
