One of the few interviews I’ve seen since Jan. 20th that is worth a damn. youtu.be/7I-VZaOMwpA?...

Through all sorrows she INSISTS on seeing the beauty that is in the world and I’m the luckiest fella to be in her presence everyday. Happy birthday, Krista @kristaawad.bsky.social . May the universe give, in return, the love you give to it.

The entire time Krista @kristaawad.bsky.social was talking about an axolotl I thought she was talking about Quetzalcoatl. If I ever have enough money to commission one of her paintings it will be an axolotl hanging out with Quetzalcoatl.

Breaking news y’all!

Pizza legend.

Trump is compared to fascist dictators often and that’s understandable, of course. But I feel like there should be more Jim Jones comparisons as well.

It was cool to see the studio where two of my favorite albums were recorded, one after the other, Iggy Pop’s Lust for Life and David Bowie’s Heroes.

The screening of Vulcanizadora last night in Berlin was wonderful. The panel discussion that followed was amazing to be a part of. Danke schön. Woche der Kritik. As usual I forgot to take any photos of the evening so here’s a pic of Checkpoint Charlie if you’re interested in that sort of thing

Hell yeah

This soda is amazing. I had no idea of its existence until 10 minutes ago.

The evening after the JFK assassination, Lenny Bruce went on stage and there was a long pause as the audience wondered what he would say about the situation. The first words out his mouth were “Vaughn Meader is f**ked.”

I can’t figure out vector so I’m gonna have to hand drawn every frame. But maybe that’s for the best. Humbug Maestro.

Super Bowl is free on Tubi. That’s about the extent of my investment in this game.

When you work hard all week to take care of everything on your plate because you long ago planned a Saturday morning couch co-op session of Baldur’s Gate 3 only to wake up and find a historic PlayStation network outage.

Well, I’m no Don Bluth but here are the initial sketches of the Humbug Maestro. Update: with profile.

Well I’m no Don Bluth but here is the initial character sketch of the Humbug Maestro.

This is my PBS-style bumper intro for my forever in development show Humbug Maestro that will precede every episode. Cheers!

For no reason, I present to you the entirety of my physical media collection. (Though Bound for Glory is a loan I must return)

The country has been ratcheted so far to the right that the “progressive” candidate held hands with the Cheney family.

Ok, I’ve been busy all morning. Two things Los Angeles,…is Micelli’s still open or not? And the Luka trade is ludicrous.

If you are in danger unless you comply with a regime, you are in danger whether you comply or not

As I was closing up the shop last night the speakers in the store were playing the Fire Aid concert live throughout the store. I was listening to this version of Both Sides Now. It broke my heart for many reasons. Glad it was filmed and I could watch it this morning and listen again.

This is true. But it’s not a new or novel strategy, obviously. This has been the M.O. of media and messaging in the U.S. since its inception. I will continue to call for general solidarity among all my brothers and sisters in the working classes.

There’s a Thai restaurant in Hollywood called Pink Pepper. I’ve been going there for years and I’ve always loved it. But lately SOMEHOW they’ve gotten even BETTER. Which is wild because that’s the exact opposite of everything else in Hollywood.

Do any of my LA buddies have a cassette deck/player with a Iine out that you’d be willing to let me borrow? Let’s talk. I gotta quick project I need to do.

Light-hearted and inconsequential fact about me: I do not, nor have I ever supported or enjoyed the flavor combination of chocolate and orange.

Since Timothée Chalamet is also the musical guest on SNL tonight, I’d be cool with him dressing up as Willy Wonka and singing Pure Imagination.

Look, all I’m saying is, when people on their death beds are pondering potential regrets, no one will say through their gasps for breath, “I wish…I wish I had…I wish I had spent more time on Facebook.”

Dudes. Has AOC seen Vulcanizadora?

I never was a part of Tik Tok. Krista operated my Tik Tok. I don’t care about that app. But the precedent that’s set by this is greatly and deeply disturbing. I just deleted my Threads account. I’ll be deleting my Facebook and instagram in the coming days.

The corporate takeover of American politics was rapid and ruthless. In the 1970s, I watched as thousands of corporate lobbyists descended on Washington. Fast forward to today, and lobbying has become a $3.7 billion dollar industry. It all began with the Powell Memo.

I’ve spent the past 48 hrs trying to learn more about entropy and the second law of thermodynamics and I gotta tell ya, I’m struggling with it a bit.

To have the conviction to reject any impediment with the purpose of actualizing that which is confined only by one’s own imagination is the hope, and necessary quest, of any artist and David Lynch is one the greatest examples of that.

Update: Just arrived back at our place. Neighborhood seems unharmed and all are safe. Thank you LAFD and all civil heroes.

Things took a very rapid turn for the worst but Krista, Kelsie (our roommate), Mr. Meowgi (the cat) and I evacuated our home in Runyon Canyon safely.

Krista: The cat only wants treats and he won’t eat his real food anymore. Me: Ya gotta cut him off of the treats and he’ll get back to eating nutritious food, trust me, as someone who received most of their calories from alcohol for 20 years.

Turbo Set!!!!! Lions, baby!

When taking down Christmas specific decorations, I now leave up the old man winter pagan decorations. Helps with long nights while waiting on Spring to arrive. Arguably the best idea I’ve had the past couple years.
