re the Deodato cover of Also Sprach Zarathustra, Blaxploitation + sci fi is afrofuturism i guess, This Again 

Theme for “Shaft in Low Geosynchronous Orbit”

The Mob wanted the “beanstalk”!

They got SHAFT! Right up to HERE!

Apparently we’ve hit the “I no longer care if I get kicked off Twitter” phase wherein I respond to some promoted jesusandfreedom account or w/e, about whether “churches will go Woke or fight back against this nonsense,” with”fuck off, genocidal fascists.” I swear I’m less irritable when they ain’t paying money to troll me.

I’m reminded that the reason I don’t claim right of return- you know, along with “the government and military are profoundly cruel, and as futile as fighting conservatism is here, it feels like it’d be insurmountable there” - is my complete and utter inability to read Hebrew without cheating and needing vowels.

Moved from Amsterdam Klezmer Band to Parno Graszt. Apparently feeling ethnic and it’s not even Christmas or Easter!

Predictably “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town,” makes me want a road-trip. There’s an alternate universe where I got a CDL and hopefully that version of me is very happy.

UPDATE “New Slang” did not help with this any.

CW food photo, some stir fried broccoli from last night, wish I’d used more ginger.

Makes sense that Jack Dorsey would be okay with having the worst people in the world saying whatever over on his social media, just like in the old days. Especially when the alternative is *actively encouraging* the worst people in the world.

night falls and my apparently vampiric upstairs neighbors rise to run around and yell enthusiastically once more

tired: the lobby shoot from The Matrix with Propellerheads as usual

wired: turn the sound down and crank Head Like a Hole instead

coyote sing along hour 

hang my head
drown my fear
till you all just disappear
black hole sun, won't you come

black hole sun, won't you come, won't you come?
(Black hole sun! Black hole sun!)
won't you come?
(Black hole sun! Black hole sun!)

duh duh duh da duh doo duh

yelling, annoying sounds 

THE HORN OF HELM HAMMERHAND SHALL SOUND IN THE DEEP!

FREE SOUND EFFECTS: La Cucaracha Horn youtu.be/PRc2vx4xTVM via @YouTube

Show thread

fan edit of The Lord of the Rings only any time anyone blows a horn the sound is a tinny car horn version of "La Cucaracha"

"Frodo, look. The Argonath. Long have I desired to look upon the visages of the kings of old, my forefathers."

* dramatic Howard Shore *
* sweeping pan shots *

"well that's grand then. What're those?"
"The Argonath."

Let’s get those missiles ready to destroy the universe!

Took me this long to realize all the stuff around that was intrusive thoughts.

Oh yeah napped in the car during lunch break, listening to Kyuss, trying to tell myself I’m not the cartoon villain in a story where someone else is the likable hero.

Turkish Airways is advertising that I need to “connect with my spirituality”with a photo of Istanbul so I think they’re telling me to pet cats.

just realizing how stressed I feel at some sort of ongoing level. It *has* been a busy month or so.
