I know it’s not super-sophisticated or anything, but I love that grumbly, dirty bassline.
They sound really great for a three-piece band.
Speed Steamin’
When I was taking the competency test to attend community college, I finished and told the proctor I was done but that I hadn’t gotten any results. They were supposed to appear immediately.
The proctor looked confused and said something about having never seen that happen before. He spent some minutes messing around on his computer and then said that my exam had been flagged for probable cheating.
I said, “I’m on video and you’re sitting about eight feet away from me. How could I cheat?”
Anyway, the CC spent quite a long time (more than a week) reviewing the video and eventually decided I hadn’t cheated. They’d just never had anyone get a perfect score on a two hour test in 12 minutes.
LOL. I love doing shit like that.
That test was mad easy, y’all.
Find a Way
Feminists are surprised there’s a backlash after they spent more than a decade telling everyone that all men were irredeemable demons from hell and that’s all they’d ever be.
They’re like, “Who would be offended by that???”
Not sure how you could get more clueless but I’m sure they’ll find a way.
Charly Bliss – Black Hole | Audiotree Live
Great performance, and of course half the reason to watch any Charly Bliss vid is Eva’s facial expressions.
I was wondering if she was going to attempt the scream in the song, and she did! It’s at 2:26. Love that.
PMC Smart
Remember how everyone always talked about how very smart Obama was?
To me, though, he always seemed like those “educated” people I’ve met so many times in my life who are always ready with a blithe, fluent, answer but who do not actually understand anything very deeply.
Not smart, just performance. But that’s what gets one ahead in life at the PMC level.

Who Does It
Hmm, wonder who exactly is doing all that raping? Could it be the hordes of feral Third Worlders and Islamic demons they’ve let into the country?
Well, of course it was.
Counts
Going to various record shops in Gainesville, Florida, with my friend when I was 17 on Saturdays. She was as crazy about music as I was and we’d spend hours pawing through all the CDs and looking for concert flyers.
We’d usually get up early, drive to Gainesville in the morning, hit 3-4 record shops, then finish out our excursion at Tony and Pat’s for pizza and pasta for lunch. Then go to a park, and next back home to listen to the new CDs.
What a foreign place all of that feels now. But how free it felt at the time.
Massive Passive
The economists are lying to all of us about AI. There will be massive job loss because of it. It’s already happening.
Econs have to prevaricate, dissimulate and fabricate. Being professional liars is what most of them do. It’s their entire purpose in life. Most of them would not have jobs otherwise.
Thought Control
He’s right; I do think the strategy of calling everything you don’t like “racist” to control other people’s thoughts and actions is done.
