I post about how Progressives are not Left-wing and are in fact actively used by the far-Right to subvert the Left - Also, alternative comedy
- Internet Connection: Currently Mooched Computer: $3,000 working gaming PC found on sidewalk outside my home on the last day of 2023 Having really no idea who Mr. Beast is in 2026: Fucking priceless!
- @caulkthewagon.bsky.social If you're done w/ Twitter any chance you could unlocked your account for posterity's sake? You had a lot to do with the fascist takeover of America by tech oligarchs and I think it's important people understand how you were manipulated so badly so they can learn from it.
- Kyle Mizono had a sketch show on Comedy Central called Girl Kyle that lasted 3 episodes and apart from a few clips on youtube I'll never see it and I'm sad about that.
- Alan Resnick is the most important artist of the 21st Century
- Icarus was kind of a douche.
- A month ago I was lamenting that I couldn't remember the name of a cartoonist I found amusing like a decade ago Will Laren The old Spicy Keychain! willlaren.blogspot.com
- Always painful when a post of mine goes semi-viral but I know it can't really go huge because Centrist Dems look into what I'm saying and realize I'm exposing people they hate for being imperialists, neoliberal, and pro-Israel and they're like "We don't want to know what's good about them!"
- No offense intended but 18-29 year-olds are, by definition, the least wise adults on the planet. And when you rant and rave that people who have lived long enough to accrue wisdom shouldn't be allowed to take part in government you come off as really gross and stupid. Just so you know!
- I had no idea Vicki Lawrence sang The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia. Isn't that something? Mama from Mama's Family. I just didn't know!
- Me after completing my download of the obscure 1991 film Year of the Gun off The Pirate Bay
- Youtube is the best community online these days. When I reply to someone's comment often my comment is shadow banned & no one sees it but they still light up my notifications to let me know when someone who isn't shadow banned has replied to the same comment I did. An extra level of Fuck you I love
- Someone uploaded The Sisters Brothers to youtubers. I love this movie. Made by John C Reily's production company and starring him and Joaquin Phoenix. If you haven't seen it enjoy www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHKd...
- Do all first person shooters have the same error with ammo in that if shoot half the clip and reload (meaning you toss away the half-used clip) you still have those rounds in your ammo total? Not really asking just pointing out that it bugs me.
- "Just because you don't know what they're doing doesn't mean they don't know what they're doing." - Michael Parenti
- When I used to go to the movies I would call and see if they were doing a Thursday preview of the new Friday release and they always were. I saw Attack of the Clones in an empty theater (maybe half dozen other people) the night before its official open. Very few people seemed to know about this.
- 2 sports related marks on my freakishly skillful Left hand. 1st I crunched some cartilage or something grabbing someone's hood of their hoodie as they ran by in tackle football in my mid-20s. Never had it looked at. Circle is scar from punching a kid in his braces during a hoop game circa 1985ish
- Reddit's front page right now. Navalny was, of course, a far-Right wing nationalist Note 4th submission is about the PSL's Mike Prysner (Ron Paul Libertarian @abbymartin.bsky.social's husband - whom I've written about extensively) Followed by more NATO war mongering That's "the Left" in the West.
- USA Today just ranked the hotel I somewhat ran back in 2000 as the 2nd best waterfront hotel in the USA. Gosh! www.boston.com/travel/trave... That's the main inn on the hill in that photo
- With the sun just cresting the horizon below them, Venus and Jupiter know it's time to call it a night in today's #HornyAstronomyPic
- ESPN bought RedZone. I used to enjoy pirating RedZone - not any more! I wonder how Disney will make it suck?
- If you're one to wonder why people love Jimmy Page so much I'd point to his almost 3 minute solo during live No Quarter stretching to 11:30 mark w/ post solos jam - the last 15 seconds of which is the best 15 seconds of guitar playing ever. Timed to start at Jimmy's solo 👍 youtu.be/WD8hJ-awjBc?...
- The best thing about this leaning into a defender jump shot from 20 feet is there was about 16 seconds left on the shot clock. Larry felt Atlanta had made a mistake allowing him to take that shot. He hit it, of course.
- Right-wing Libertarian con that was dominating progressive media a decade ago didn't go anywhere. Post-Trump world they dream of is in sight for them and they're not going away. Greenwald is going to be welcomed back to "Left" by all the previously placed influencers = @demsocialists.bsky.social
- I've got less than a gig left on my metered connection for the next 40 hours so I have to wait to pirate a bunch of movies I know I'll hate! Though looking forward to Eddington don't think any cams of it yet. I should not I've enjoyed Foundation this season more than I expected.
- Speaking of Naked Gun reboot - which I have no interest in tbh - proud to say I watched every episode of Police Squad when it aired in 1982. But didn't know until now that the pilot was basically a scene by scene remake of an episode of a show called M Squad
- My wonderful kitty of 15 years died quietly in her sleep last night. Miss you already, Scraps.
- Do the idiot NBA fans think the fact Luka has trained so hard this off season and dropped so much wait proves Dallas was wrong? It proves they were right. He wasn't gonna do this if they didn't dump his fat ass. He left them no choice they were right - and they got Flagg for their troubles.
- Josh Gardner is a true comic genius (Gerhard Reinke's Wanderlust and Saul from Saul of the Mole Men) but stepped away from hollyweird to raise his family in Maine. Haven't watched it yet (gonna now) but he has a new thing on youtuber www.youtube.com/@RockandRoll... It's probably good.
- I tracked down Rodney Dangerfield's first film appearance and all I got was this lousy reaction clip
- Me trying to get away from the non-stop Trump spam "Sports" 👍
