“FUCK YOU, YOU MOTHERFUCKING SELF-DEALING WORTHLESS SACK OF SHIT!!”
It’s hard to imagine the Grifter-in-Chief lowering the bar any further, but he’s done it. Yesterday, Trump 2.0 announced a new Swampland Slush-Fund to fraudulently reward people who beat-up cops and tried to overturn an election (based on Trump’s own brazen lies and disgraceful failure to acknowledge defeat). These are people who pled-out or wereContinue reading ““FUCK YOU, YOU MOTHERFUCKING SELF-DEALING WORTHLESS SACK OF SHIT!!””
“Mythological Inversion”
Film remakes have long been with us. A Star Is Born has been done four times (1937, 1954, 1976, and 2018), and no doubt it will be revived again. I’ve seen recent previews for the third retelling of both Lord of the Flies (1963, 1990, and 2026 on Netflix) and Cape Fear (1962, 1991, andContinue reading ““Mythological Inversion””
“A.I. or Bust”
With artificial intelligence and a few targeted prompts, anyone can become an armchair cartoonist. This one was inspired by a steakhouse wall that boasted multiple clocks, all bearing important destinations like San Fran, NYC, and Paris. The idea hit that it, instead, could be Fresno and Missoula and Ft. Wayne, as there are so manyContinue reading ““A.I. or Bust””
“DEMAGOGUE Records presents…”
… the complete back catalogue of the incomparable and highly consequential musical artist COVFEFE. The sound of an entire socio-political movement that broke like a category-5 tropical (septic) cyclone. No graphics required. He neither asked permission nor forgiveness. No shits were left to be given — it was all there in the music. The highsContinue reading ““DEMAGOGUE Records presents…””

“A Day in the Life of Donald J. Trump”
And now these words on time from the Bard: “I wasted time, and now time doth waste me.” — from Richard II, Act V, Scene 5 “To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools TheContinue reading ““A Day in the Life of Donald J. Trump””
“Redemption”
A man walks down the streetHe says, “Why am I soft in the middle now?Why am I soft in the middle?The rest of my life is so hardI need a photo opportunityI want a shot at redemptionDon’t want to end up a cartoonIn a cartoon graveyard” — from Paul Simon’s “You Can Call Me Al”Continue reading ““Redemption””
“The Senior Tour”
This post (using ChatGPT) was inspired by my friend BR who had shared this supremo photo (below) from the 1975 Masters of Chi Chi Rodriguez and his caddy, Carl Howard. My buddy noted the relative lack of brand logos and product endorsements in that era, which led me to ponder what a comparable player onContinue reading ““The Senior Tour””
“Elegant Brown Toilet”
This post was added as a needed sorbet from posts about our oxygen-sucking idiotocratic national leadership, who continue to pile stupid upon stupid and corrupt upon corrupt.
