Or what if we organized Bluesky like this?

The Paris Commune (1871)

No one:

Kelly: Do I have to spell it out for you?

No one:

Kelly: Well, I'm going to anyways ...

Life-saving idea! Pass it on!

I started using a 2-10" wedge cab earlier this year, positioned in front of me (atop rackmounted amp/effects rig), with the other vocal monitors. No backline amp or cabinets. Sound guy has total control, and it only needs to be loud enough for *me*.

The *last* thing they want is more critical thinking. It leads to dot-connecting.

Looking back, I probably would've lasted longer at Guitar Center if I hadn't greeted customers with, "Let me know if I can strap something on you."

Don't think of it as a cubicle. Think of it as a starter coffin.

On this Chairteenth, we celebrate the good folks of Montgomery, especially our guy AquaMayne. Special shout out to the folks who, within 72 hours, recreated this in their apartment complex. A COMMUNITY!! 💀

My favorite Beatles album, and the 14-track Parlophone original (as released on CD) is even better.

Good! Someone's gotta hold the line.

Or at least a way to do <sarcasm> </sarcasm> like we used to do italic & bold.

[Sepia-tone still from "London After Midnight." A woman and a scary-looking man stand at the top of a staircase in a creepy old house; to her left is a grandfather clock festooned with cobwebs. The man (Lon Chaney, as it happens) holds a lantern; she is pointing downstairs.] Woman: You left the front door unlocked ... *again*. Man: No, it's all right my dear. It's just the electrician. Woman [struggling]: "E-lec-" ... what now? Man: Eh, I'll explain later. Come along, sir ... let me show you to the fuse box.

I sure am glad some of the stills still survive ...

What’s happening in Gaza is not war.
What’s happening in Gaza is state terrorism.
What’s happening in Gaza is the purposeful targeting, maiming, and murdering of civilians.
What’s happening in Gaza is the decimation of the human and material infrastructure of a society.
What’s happening is genocide.

Guess it hasn’t faded away yet?

"First Annual" ... it's either hubris, or they couldn't be bothered to look up "inaugural."

"You're calling yourself Lenny Bruce? What kind of a stage name is that?"
"I dunno ... I guess I thought Leonard Alfred Schneider was too 'Hollywood.'"

Well put. Why would anyone anywhere give a single, solitary fuck about his opinion?

My favorite David Bowie is the long-form video he did for "Blue Jean," directed by Julien Temple.

Do. Not. Stop. Posting. About. Epstein. And. Trump.

Post or share at least two Epstein/Trump related posts today, and the next day…Every. Damn. Day. 🔥

[crooning] "Nobody does it better ..."

"Sir, you really need to get a life."
"This *is* my life! What's left of it anyway."

I don't want a ballroom in The White House. I want healthcare.

I've always liked William Burroughs' pithy suggestion: "They should be relocated to remote areas of the country and encouraged to take up snake handling. Get some spitting cobras and black mambas in there and you good ol' boys can test your faith."

[Black and White image of a Parisian street in the nightclub district. The streets have been freshly washed. A small group of people, men and women, are conversing in a doorway, and a gendarme is on the periphery.] Caption: "Out Late with Serge Gainsborough" Woman: I've spoken to the maître d' ... we *can* get a table, but there's a *teensy* little catch. Serge Gainsborough: Sacré bleu. I suppose he is wanting me to get up and sing some awful karaoke version of one of my well-known songs. Woman: Actually, he wants it in writing that you *won't*.

#FumettiFriday There's always a catch.

No punishment is too great for the man who can build his greatness upon his country’s ruin.

Heh. She'll probably end up having to pulp the remainders herself.

The gods that we've made are exactly the gods you'd expect to be made by a species that's about half a chromosome away from being chimpanzee.

Might even leave a skid-mark ...

He's alleged in his own mind ... such as it is.
