He knows how to talk tough, no doubt from watching every action movie under the sun, definitely all the Charles Bronson, Clint Eastwood, and Chuck Norris flics.

Some other things from that era I came across were old glow in the dark condoms. They worked as advertised, but weren't very bright.

Crissi, a pamphlet about meth.

Among the items we'd and out was this little pamphlet about "Crissi", with art to portray how strung out and messed up she was. At least that was the intent.

Years ago, around 2003-2007, I used to do outreach for Fenay community health center. We'd go out to gay clubs and hand out safer sex kits: condoms, lube, and information about getting tested and other health concerns like substance use.

Yep he's Glaswegian.

Funny you'd think he was from the southern US To my ear, he kinda has a UK heavy psych vibe like Uncle Acid, but maybe I thought that because I already knew he was from there.

Motorpsycho
YouTube video by Devil's Witches - Topic Motorpsycho

Been a while since I listened to "Velvet Magic" by Devil's Witches, but I was craving it this morning. I don't see many people posting about this one-man band, but I love their thick, juicy riffs, the Mark Bolanesque vocals, their retro vibe. #heavypsych

Charlie Kirk called me a โ€˜lunaticโ€™ and a โ€˜prostituteโ€™ and demanded I be deported.

Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.

We donโ€™t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

"Everybody Dies" by Superchunk off of "Songs in the Key of Yikes".

In other (*college rock*) news, the new Superchunk album is pretty damn good. Especially the first half. The second half loses momentum *slightly*, but overall is still pretty solid.

Going through my mother's stuff, I found this Tom Lehrer songbook, and the cover art goes pretty hard! (Art by Ronald Searle.)
