New listing in Austin, only $500,000 OBO
How I wish this were a straightforward joke and not a painful, dark one. I am very lucky that I managed to find a place in a good location at the right, affordable time. It doesn’t help with all the … Continue reading
Summer is finally here!
Technically, for me, I’d say the kickoff is Memorial Day even though I still had to attend grade or high school for another week during my childhood. And we know it was mid-May in college. Sucks when you become an … Continue reading

One of my favorite Horror shirts
This is taken from a commercial you see on a TV during the movie Mandy. Just way too funny! All these kids are excited to have the Cheddar Goblin puke Mac n’ Cheese on them. Even if you can’t handle the … Continue reading
Well…duh! Then again, certain people do…
…like Elon Musk, he definitely enjoys his own farts as much as he does his shitty bully humor on Twitter. Joke is on him though since the service is now worth a third of what he paid for it.
Corrupt Texas AG Ken Paxton impeached
In a rare demonstration of morality and justice, the Texas House impeached our horrible shit bird Attorney General. Paxton has dodged getting punished for a decade because he’s been a criminal since the day he decided to run. Don’t believe … Continue reading
Out There
Before Justin Roiland was finally outed and cancelled as the horrible, horrible despicable person he has always been, he was a principle character’s voice in a short-lived cartoon on IFC by Ryan Quincy. Out There was Quincy’s semi-autobiographical show about teen … Continue reading
No need for genetic modifications here
This photo nails it on what life is like with Nubby and, until she is sent off for adoption, Rhea. You can’t put food out of reach enough with those two.
Austin is now the tenth largest US city
It’s finally happened, my adopted home is now in the Top 10 for the US. We somehow pushed out the equally unaffordable San José. So we can count on the Texas Republican lies and propaganda on how the growth was … Continue reading
RIP Tina Turner
A well-loved singer across two generations. The Boomers who knew her in the early days with her then husband Ike, performing with the Stones, The Who (I remember her as the Acid Queen in Tommy) and others. Made the CCR … Continue reading
1923: Irish Civil War ends
It’s the centennial for the Irish Republic’s genesis. Today, the place is the envy of the EU (the Economic Celtic Tiger is one nickname) given how past English policies prevented the land from being devastated by the Industrial Revolution; other … Continue reading
What I would’ve given/done for this in 1975
I know it’s mostly just cardboard but damn it’s so cool! The elevator alone would be enough to make me beg my parents for a week. As much as I love all the cool Star Wars vehicles made possible by … Continue reading
Stars lose gave five and the season ends, boo!
I’m glad I didn’t go (see above, later, whatever). According to the score, I can tell it wasn’t even close…5-2. What a pisser! On the upside, we do get to raise one banner next Fall to celebrate the accomplishment of … Continue reading
They Want to Kill Americans by Malcolm Nance
Woo hoo! Book number four and I finished it in March, I think. I just got around to getting the review on to the site’s docket. My public library had this too, saved some money. After reading Belew’s Bring the … Continue reading
Cat lessons are in session
Agamemnon is seen here tutoring Romulus on how to lie in the tower, supervise the humans and make it all look easy. Mama cat Rhea has eased up on her attacks allowing my silliest cat the opportunity to teach the … Continue reading
Stars win game four in double overtime!
What an exhausting nail biter. The score (4-3) may appear to be a repeat of Wednesday night but this time the Stars kept it together. The officiating was crap though. Barely any calls on the grappling and tripping with both … Continue reading
