I was too busy being stoned, playing video games and watching movies with my family to make a 4th of July post

But I couldn’t let such a great opportunity to be honest about the authentic American experience to pass without *any* commentary, so I’ll post a little update to last year’s July 4th rant. I’m sure the new group of NextDoor stalkers who have attached themselves to my account were waiting on pins and needles! 😂Continue reading “I was too busy being stoned, playing video games and watching movies with my family to make a 4th of July post”

Do you really believe UFO sightings experienced a legitimate uptick during the fascist Trump administration, and now?

So the state has spent an unusual amount of time over the last 4 years revealing “sensational” mysteries, such as UFOs at Area51, UFO sightings by the Air Force, gravity manipulation tech, etc, and what has been the conclusion of each press release? What came of these bizarre statements made to the media? Nothing. ThereContinue reading “Do you really believe UFO sightings experienced a legitimate uptick during the fascist Trump administration, and now?”

How’s that incremental change working out for you?

What do the neoliberals say, when they have power – including supermajorities – but cannot get simple working-class bills passed? Republican Obstructionism. Then they say to the left, “Slow down, universal healthcare advocate! Relax, anti-war demonstrators! Too much change, too quickly, no good! These things must be studied and slowly, incrementally enacted, or the economyContinue reading “How’s that incremental change working out for you?”

Call of Fascism: Propaganda War

Don’t buy or support the new Call of Duty game being discussed at Activision, for release on the Playstation 5, which is titled “Call of Duty: Cold War.” Don’t do it. Don’t fall for another dose of entertainment war-propaganda dressed as a video game. The very last entry in that franchise had your character… SupportingContinue reading “Call of Fascism: Propaganda War”

When they take Social Security to avoid paying back their debt…

… then, will you get to the streets? Or has Ageism and Generationism, where you allow the media and popular personalities to invent alienating, divisive, downright insulting generalizations about *all* old folks, also removed our sense of empathy for those soon to retire? While many of us may have a few decades left until weContinue reading “When they take Social Security to avoid paying back their debt…”

Do the wealthy care about you?

The rich care about you, and all the trials and tribulations of your working-class life in exactly the same measure the average American cares about the homeless encampments growing in every city in the country. They have their jokes and memes about your complaints about not being able to afford food and healthcare, too. ManyContinue reading “Do the wealthy care about you?”

No, #generalaction isn’t a neoliberal campaign strategy, nor were Marches for Causes

And other absurdities, intentionally failure-oriented activism strategies, silly commentary, yadda yadda. Today, the intrepid Record Correcting Blue Wave accounts that we’ve all been promised began raging across the social sphere, right on someone’s mark. Today was probably the start of their pay cycle and hourly or per-word billing requirements. So far, I’ve been told –Continue reading “No, #generalaction isn’t a neoliberal campaign strategy, nor were Marches for Causes”

Apps are not Real, Personal Computing is Dead for Most of You.

Don’t let anyone try to convince you ‘apps’ are real. Are you ready to give up the “personal” in your personal computing environment? You may have already. What is an app? It is a collection of program files, potentially some dlls, file systems, and data files, among other things, and they are designed to runContinue reading “Apps are not Real, Personal Computing is Dead for Most of You.”
